      So true, Hydro :snork: As I said I don't believe the gun culture in the US will ever leave it as to them possessing a weapon, for whatever reason, is as natural to as breathing.:dunno:

      I don't get why the U.S. is so reluctant to execute mass murderers. I'm sorry, but if you've taken the life of another, you don't deserve to live.

      If you dont execute them, they are valuable subjects for psychologists...i suppose the ultimate goal is prevention.

      Well, in effect all the States have their own different aspects on law and criminal detention. Cross over the border into the next state and you can be jailed for something quite legal in your own State. Most States do not like interference from the Federal Government and the fact that one State disliking a Presidential candidates policies can seriously affect their chances of success makes for a very mixed political view and policy. America and China are both countries with the highest number of criminals being executed, and the UK, Astro Turf, got rid of the Death Penalty, decades ago.:coffee:

      wow ... I posted a really good video, (bear in mind that the video was uploaded in 2009) and doubt if anyone who has posted after my previous post has even bothered to view it before posting?)

      but, I don't really care, as I hang out on this forum mainly for gardening tips .... I frequent other forums and get intelligent posts and dialect when it comes to matters of current world events ...

      so I suppose there is a place for everything

      :dunno:

      Dim have you seen the weather outside do you really think we want to sit here all day watching your propoganda films!!

      I have something i would like to ask you actually regarding one off these websites that your always trying to direct us to.

      “​
       DON'T BELIEVE A DAMN WORD YOU READ ON THIS WEBSITE!
      ”​

      —The first sentence of GLP's disclaimer[1]​
      “​
       I know a lot of people here suffer from some form of mental illness...
      ”​

      —Extract from a rant by Trinity (the site's owner), claiming that rogue psychologists were targeting their members.[2]​
      Is this true???

      Also i found another website that has a conspiracy theory of their own regarding GLP, they say the website was set up by psychologists to study the reactions of the mentally ill to a series off fantasy stories (conspiracies). Like most conspiracy theories it probably garbage but do you believe in that one?

      As for you saying that nobody listens to you or watches your videos ect thats not true people on here have been very patient with you and often engage with you even though i sometimes get the feeling they would rather stick to the topic in hand!
      Oh and i tried to visit GLPs to see for myself if that is what their disclaimer says but i could not for some reason i have been barred from the website they have my I.P there was an apology notice saying if i emailed them they would sort the problem out but as if i want to do that, tehy only have my I.P address because i visited the site in the past when you told me too!! I also could not help but notice the photoshopped image of the Barrack Obama half naked in bed with another man - so now not only is he not American he is gay too. What next he isnt actually black either?

          it's a strange world Hydro?

          but it's good to read what everyone thinks .... then you make up your own mind .... on that site, anything goes .... if you disagree with someone's opinion ... you can say so (and you can say it how you feel, with no moderation whatsoever)
          :cool:
