Great quote... one of my favorites. Too bad it had to come from such a slimy individual.

These kinda things happen anyway so why the big whoop now?
I'm all for democracy and liberty and shiz, but when it comes right down to it, I'd rather have my communication monitored then be living somewhere where I have to worry wether or not I'll get to work alive today, we get many prievies from living in developed countries, something's got to give, this isn't utopia yet.

that doesnt matter, face facts, you wanna live free and not be subjagated to the state's rule, then you've got Antartica, maybe I understand this better because of where I live, but I know for sure that the first ones that get blamed after terrorists attack are the terrorists the second one to get blamed is the country's own government ....
we want security, we want safety... we want a-lot of things, we should always be ready to fight for them, thats one aspect of it.

It's not like the government is gouging 666 into your forehead. Don't like it? Move. Look at places where there is no all controlling government. They tend to have civil wars every few years I.E. about 50% of the entire continent of Africa and many middle eastern countries.

I'm going to go ahead and close this thread. Now, I will offer the reason. Not that it is bad debate (I wouldn't mind at all taking any of this up outside Overclock.net), but that it just doesn't fit the site's purpose and the reason why OCN exists.

Thanks everyone for your contributions
