I missed the link in my last question. My question got lost in debate about Kent State. I am not talking about 40 years ago. I'm talking about today. Yahoo killed the link. Here's the actual link:

Why did no person rise up to help this guy? Why do we allow ourselves to be intimidated by our government? Why is this the most policed country in the world?

Malls have been allowed to come up. Ahmedabad seems to be worst. 3 kM road, mall floor area exceeding million sq ft, have parking areas which may be barely sufficient for their staff. Visitors parking cars at quarrel prone are and blocking other properties as, traffic snarls high, waiting for explosive road rages. It appears all for MALL PANI for regulators. First make money in giving sanctions, then make money on elevated roads , further make money in permitting underground deep parking , then permit multilevel parking . Traffic police make money on tow away. Considering the aspects it appears AAAM- BANI (common voice or VOX POPULI) ire seems justified the one witnessed in UP. The statement says permission have been taken, so were the permission taken for UPHAR cinema but it was all by giving uphaar( gifts) . who suffered ask next of victims

Kent State. Remember? Our own police killed our children. Why do we allow our police to brutalize our fellow citizens? What happened to the Spirit of 1776?

Why?

The free and reasonable speech of posters is often challenged or "removed" by the host.

The people who answer often reply with attempted control statements like, "you are supposed to form a question." or, "stop generalizing." Often the intellectually elite who fester while viewing this site come back with answers one would expect from inmates in prisons.

These types of statements run extremely counter to a society where free speech is supposed to be allowed and tolerated. Especially when it is reasonable speech filled with decent arguments.

This website and it's members have shown with absolute consistensy a leaning towards anti free speech views...especially when the speaker has a valid point that is hitting too close to home.

This site and many of it's members should represent themselves with communist themes, logos, flag pics etc...to correctly represent themselves.

Hows that for generalizing?

Commies!

As a MTV generation kido, i grew up in the cusp of an environmental attitude change that seems to swing back and forth like a pendelum. (Reagan to Cater Bush to clinton to Gore oh i mean Bush again and again...) It is time to turn the page folks unlike our dear mis imformed Leaders I KNOW that our resources are NOT infinite! As a culture we pretend that there are unlimited resources and even more unlimited places to bury the stuff when we are finished with it. It is time we wake up as a culture and realize that reducing, reusing, and recycling are the true three r's that need to be taught in our society today and may i add a fourth R to the equation, this is rethink.. we need to rethink our policies and actions, the time for acting like an ostrich with his head in the sand is over lets hold our heads high and be fully aware of our actions. WE DO LIVE ON A SUBSTAINABLE PLANET IF WE WOULD ONLY ACT RESPONSIBLY what is your ideas to get people to RETHINK and make real changes .

The federal government outlaws the possession and ownership of widgets (imaginary item). The majority of your state, including yourself supports the ownership and enjoyment of widgets. What if it got to the point that the federal government was ready to send the national guard in to force the residents of your state to relinquish all widgets. Who would you support? I know, its a stupid question, but I'm curious of how people think. People used to consider themselves a, for instance, New Yorker first and an American second.

well today, feeling compelled to join an interesting club, i decided to go with Debate. I admit at glances it seems ... relatively not that challenging. But at the meeting today, where the returning members gave a demonstration, I was in absolute aweness. Everything then became more serious. I thought I would get a chance to get used to this before going to compete with anyone...but heh...our first tournament is next weekend and I really dont want to make myself look too much of an idiot. so if anyone could give a few pointers on how to debate efficiently, I'd appreciate it. Thank you.

In Iraq protests almost never happened, in this country they protest for freedom and we let them die. Its a shame that real freedom fighters are ignored by larger powers.
