Ask anyone: most people would rather be put to death than spend the rest of
their lives in prison. I certainly would. I know someone who's done some
hard time; "living hell" doesn't do justice to what he experienced.

I never knew that John McCain was an anti-war extremist. You learn the
darndest things on Usenet!


I forgot about that bigoted imbecile.


Hmm. I have several political differences with McCain; I might even go as
far as "fool" WRT the war in Iraq.

But "bigoted imbecile?"

That's pretty strong.

People who are anti war are extremeists?

Just how many of them do you know?

I don't care if it is a deterrent in general, but it prevents repeat
offenses and that is good enough for me.

I'm a kind person and believe in giving criminals what they want. Why
be cruel and keep them locked up for years taking up space that some
other deserving criminal could be using?

I am about ready to start walking across the border to get back in because
would be way simpler.


I'm sorry for the abuse you are suffering at the hands of government
minions, but it is ironic that you could probably easily cross the
border on foot!

Not only that, I recently heard that Bush signed an agreement with our
two bordering neighbors to form some sort of trading consortium
similar to the EU and "eliminate" the borders between the US and them!
I haven't researched that yet.




Yea, it's called the North American Union the currency will be the amero
just do a google search on The Amero you will find all sorts of info. Off i
go to the land up north again then on to the EU in another 172 then a diesel
182 to eastern africa. hope to be home by Cousumer Day!

I Don't blame the guy that guy for going mad! US Customs or Department Of
Homeland (un)Security held me on 10/14 at that same airport promised to
help
me get another flight if they detained me to long and missed my flight,
after I missed my flight almost 2 hours isolated I knew it was going to
be a
long day answering dumb questions. Asked for some water after two and a
half
hours of sitting I belive the customs agent tried to gave me toilet
water.


Sounds like you need a lawyer.

water or poor coffee out of a pot???? All this was beacuse from my Lebanon
trip. They keep telling me they don't have to let me back in to the U.S. the

He didn't say that people who are anti-war are extremists. He said that
people that hold a certain view are anti-war extremists. Huge difference.
