mrdobolina if that were true and Bryce and Hedge were created by QBN just to mess with you what does that say about... you?
Not arguing, just talking to you about your 'theory'.

1) What country do you live in?
World Citizen, now living in Brazil2) What are the pros to your country?
Cheap and good food, nice people, biggest world natural resort and diversity richness3) What are the cons to your country?
This space wouldn't be enough. Even though we have cheap and abundant food, there are millions starving, politicians are the most corrupts in the world and the inhabitants are congruent with that, Brazil has "2nd World" cities like Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro... and has "3rd or maybe 4th World" cities specially in the north area.4) What is your honest feeling about America?
I like them, been there some few times, it was always a nice stay and the ppl were really nice. And actually most of them are not Americans5) How is racism handled in your country?
Underneath...

Hey, remember when you thought hedge was MrDinky? That as until MrDinky came back and you never brought it up again after talking about it non-stop for like a week or two. Make up your mind who you think hedge is already.
- why would the thread get edited after bryce was busted playing hedge? tell me that.mrdobolina
- why defend, if you don't know?mrdobolina
- somatica has a point. I'm apparently just an easy target for harassment and name calling.hedge
- do you have access to edit threads?mrdobolina
- Me? No.hedge
- Not defending at all, it's a pity you feel that way.********
- Why not talk about how you thought hedge was Dinky?********
- Why was the thread edited and then deleted? Not sure why you can't see this logic.mrdobolina
- I believed 2cents when he told me it was Dinky. May have been wrong. Is that good enough?mrdobolina

1.) United States of America
2.) life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness (human rights, individual rights, high standard of living; freedom and equality, free speech, free press, freedom of religion and consicence; virtually limitless opportunity for success, growth, and prosperity); most charitable nation on Earth; principal conquerer of tyranny in modern times (come to town, shed blood, kick ass, leave, wait to be hated for it); exemplar of pluralism – out of many, one; primary source of modern innovation; Israel's best friend
3.) like any other nation, makes mistakes, commits crimes, and falls prey to shortsighted blunders (unlike many other nations, pays for them in full); currently under threat from encroaching fascism emerging from far left in politics, media, academia (political-media-academic complex – heh) in the form of political correctness, Orwellian thoghtcrime hysteria, multiculturalism (as opposed to pluralism), identity politics, and dishonest agenda-driven media
4.) love it – grateful as hell to be here
5.) Ask Barack Obama – Any of those super-enlightened quasi-socialist states in Europe offered up a black man as head of state yet?- +1hedge

What I want to know is: when did patriotism become taboo?
- sikma0
1) Canada :D
2) Free Health Care, multicultural, beautiful vast wilderness, peaceful
3) Compared to what I see happening all over the world - NONE
4) Dieing super power that failed to read the writing on the wall.
5) Racism is highly frowned upon but still exists?
- nocomply0
1) USA
2) hard to think of many at this time. Has a lot of geographical diversity which is cool.
3) too many to list! Inability to trust the government, growing class inequality and shitty healthcare come to mind. Also our fetish with automobiles. wtf?! These machines wind up owning us.
4) it sucks. people are ignorant and wasteful. its run by corporations. I want out!
5) Not as bad as in other countries, but we still have our problems.
- Llyod0
too many fat, bible-thumping, retards (mostly in small towns and the south

1) What country do you live in? Scotland
2) What are the pros to your country? Humour, Romance, Countryside, Culture, History, Brotherhood.
3) What are the cons to your country? Litter
4) What is your honest feeling about America? Every American I have met has been lovely, I think you have one of the best team spirits of any other nation, but I am very ashamed for some of your ignorances and am genuinly scared for your future.
5) How is racism handled in your country? It's not too bad but when it does rear it's ugly head it is extraordinarily bad.
- megE0
1) USA
2) unlimited opportunities (for me at least) and diversity
3) division, arrogance, bush
4) i think we have a lot more potential than we show - i get really frustrated with the politics and just end up ignoring them to keep my sanity most times. the general public rocks - the govt has issues
5) i think it depends what part of the country you're in. ive lived in a few different areas and each has been different.

1) Netherlands
2) ...hey, is dat katja schuurman halfbloot op bnn?? sorry, ff weg......

btw. i quite like America and a lot of Americans. It's so diverse you honestly can not judge it like that.
But you guys need to work on your economy because the neighbours are getting angry!!!!!

1) Afghanistan
2) Beautiful culture, friendly people.
3) Ignorance, both foreign and domestic
4) We LOVE/HATE Americans!!!
5) Rampant tribal racism
- Jaline0
*ahem*
- OSFA0
1) USA
2) Diversity (although it is not appreciated by many), opportunity (somewhat)
3) That it is ruled by crooks, and insurance companies. That people can die because they can't afford health insurance that raises prices whenever they want. That laws don't apply to you if you have or don't have money. That it is constantly criticizing other countries and talking shit about foreign policies without realizing what's happening here. There is not enough culture/history/tradition as in other parts of the world and, The rest of the world hates us.
4) It has given me a lot and I have learned a lot. But there's still a lot of improvement needed. Soon.
5) Depends on who you ask. racism is still a huge issue here, although they keep trying to cover it and make it seem like a thing of th past. The fact that we announce to the world that we're building fences and are in a constant campaign to single out and get rid off humans makes me think that this issues will never go away...
