I asked a question about assassinating the Village Idiot in charge of the US and I get threats...

I thought the US Constitution allowed freedom of speech, and the Americans go to great lengths to state that they have a freedom to say what is on their minds...

Seems that things are no better than the Americans say other countries are like... The ones they are trying to "liberate" for democracy!!!!

this verse is saying that prophets were sent from among mankind and jinns:
يَا مَعْشَرَ الْجِنِّ وَالإِنسِ أَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ رُسُلٌ مِّنكُمْ يَقُصُّونَ عَلَيْكُمْ آيَاتِي وَيُنذِرُونَكُمْ لِقَاء يَوْمِكُمْ هَـذَا قَالُواْ شَهِدْنَا عَلَى أَنفُسِنَا وَغَرَّتْهُمُ الْحَيَاةُ الدُّنْيَا وَشَهِدُواْ عَلَى أَنفُسِهِمْ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُواْ كَافِرِينَ
"O ye assembly of JINNS and men! came there not UNTO you messengers FROM AMONGST YOU, setting forth unto you My Signs, and warning you of the meeting of this Day of yours?" They will say: "We bear witness against ourselves." It was the life of this world that deceived them. So against themselves will they bear witness that they rejected Faith. S. 6:130

If somebody makes a joke about Bush, rednecks, the bible belt, etc. they totally fail to see why anybody would find these things humourous.

As a Brit, I'm always having a laugh at the expense of chavs, Blair, the plum-in-mouth brigade etc. I can totally see the things about my compatriats which cause people from other countries to have a bit of a giggle.

Our comedians are renowned for their political satire, whereas American comedians come in for a lot of stick for doing the same thing and get marked as a possible communist, loony lefty, etc.

Lighten up, guys, your president's a retard, your farmers marry their cousins and Jerry Springer got rich on the back of the American Idiot. You're providing world class entertainment here, and you're making a fortune. Crack a smile once in a while. It could be worse - we're led by a grinning chimp and his limp wristed politically correct gang, pay massive taxes and receive substandard services.

But you've got to laugh...

This may sound a funny question but is really a puzzling one.

Krishna had a beloved named "Rukmini" who married to him and became is very loved wife.
Rukmini's father and brothers were against the marriage.
So Krishna the king of Dvarka hatched a plan to flee her from the palace. He sent a message to Rukmini and she willingly and happily acknowledged to comply.

So as arranged before, Krishna with his chariot went to meet Rukmini (in all secrecy of course) when she was going to a temple along with only her maids.
Seeking Krishna she was happy. She climbed his chariot and asked him "Would you drive me to the feedom that I seek in your kingdom ?"
Krishna said : "yes and no" i will take you to my kingdom which you so desire and since we love each other so much but please drive my chariot.

He gave the reins of his chariot in her hands.

They were successful in fleeing away together to the safety of the kingdom Dvarka where they got married and lived happily ever after.
