Stupid people who think they have the right to blame:
- the world
- their parents
- the government
- the church
- the police (in their various forms)
 
for the fact that their lives didn't turn out how they dreamed in 8th grade.
Things change and life deals out some s**t but you deal with it and it should make you a stronger person.

Ok here goes
 
 
People who sit by without so much as a word and watch millions get slaughtered in Rwanda, Bosnia, Kosovo, Haiti, Iraq, Iran, China, and a million oher places, then protest against the war in Iraq.
 
I'd like for once to see a protest to help mankind.
 
How we can watch our fellow humans suffer and do nothing, then balk at something that doesn't fit our ideoolgy, puzzles me
 
 
Then again humans are the only species that will fight when something cramps thier lifestyle.

Politics?
Human RIghts?
Discretion
discrimination against humans?

Next on the list.
 
People who believe that the majority 3.5 minute pop song have the ability of capturing deep emotion.
 
I would love to see more artists release (and be publicised for doing so) albums that go for 1hr plus with only 1 or 2 tracks. Granted many electro-musicians produce some great work capable of taking you to many different places but I would like to hear more manual sessions where the band gets into the zone and just rock. I would like to hear today's equivalent of Beethoven's 5th (which incidentally was panned by critics in the early days of perfomance) available for purchase.
 
Granted, many indie and alternative artists produce what they want to but we the purchasing public allow them to still be required to conform to the "must run less than 10 mins or I'll get bored" rule. Have we as a society become so fickle? Have we lost our ability to imagine and to become immersed in a world we can't see or read?
 
Don't get me started on CD prices.
I play music (piano, organ, clarinet, ceramic beer jug) I love music. I love my CD collection. I love to sift through my father's collection of black (and occasionally red) vinyl discs (which have a better sound quality - you know this is the truth) but why should I have to pay $AU30 for the work when the artists doesn't see this money. If the artists got to see 90% of the money te price wouldn't matter to me (and if they're making music for the right reasons they aren't after money [Metallica are you hearing this???]) and people argue that marketing costs money (which it does though good music advertises itself) and there are overheads etc etc. Why should I spend my money on buying a CD I like from a band I like who's record company uses those profits to prop up 2-dimensional talentless pop-tarts and a seemingly endless supply of pre-fab metrosecksual boy-bands in order to capture the money of the parents of 14yo sheep who think that being an individual comprises of being the "FIRST" person with the new Britney/Christina/Timberlake/etc rather than one of the crowd.
 
Now onto Justin Timberlake or as he will most likely want to call himself to try and further "urbanise" himself "J.Timby". Here's a news flash fella:
You're "upper middle class white 20-somthing male with an SUV" not a man from any number of backgrounds who has struggled through the rough urban streets of any number of western cities from any number of western countries. For JC's sake you were a mouse-kateer (sp?) - go be a suburban soccer dad.
 
Oops - I appear to have fallen off the anger management wagon.

OK. BTW for much of the slaughtering in the world is done by USA or the USA can be blamed for. Ask the people of iraq if the USA has helped them. Of course all asked by CNN, NBC ... will say yes, but the real public opinion goes against USA.
 
Bottom line is Bush is an idiot who is playing with the lives of milions and should be removed from gene pool!

Tomay,

Were you one of the people that have been siting around watching people die that sapiens was addressing? If not, then he wasn't flaming you, so don't flame him. Can it.

This is supposed to be about topics for flaming (which I myself don't think is a good idea, but I thought I would see how this goes) and *not* for flaming posters because of what they hate.

Yet another topic
 
*Disclaimer*
 
This is not a topic about abortion per se, but about consistancy. PLease read.
 
 
This latest court challenge to the "partial" birth abortion has me puzzled. That coupled with the fact the Scott Peterson is facing TWO charges of murder in Modesto California
 
What I can't understand, is if it's a fetus, and can be aborted then why is it considered a baby when a woman who is "expecting" is murdered?
 
If it is a fetus, as defined by the courts, then he should be charged with only ONE count of murder.
 
Also a woman who is "expecting" should not be called a mother, because what she is carrying is not a child, at least not yet.
 
She should be called a "host" untill the fetus has matured and is delivered.
 
I would just like to know, why it's a fetus when a woman doesn't want it, and a "baby" when she wants to keep it
 
I could care less either way, for I am pro choice, but I want consistancy in the law, and in the language we use.

Thanks for reminding me of another topic
 
 
I cannot understand how Arabs, namely Arab Muslims, can watch thier brothers and sisters be brutalized by the likes of Saddam and not stand against him
 
Then complain that we invade.

You do have a point, although you MUSt understand the following point. There is NO SUCH THING as an arab or muslim "democracy" right now. Even governments that claim to be "democratic" are nothing but dictatorships themselves. Whether be it a King or a president, they are all dictators. It is in the best interest of these dictators to form happy relations with the people, and they usually do. And after they do, the story is all over.

Without mentioning names, as an Arab born and raised in the middle east I can assure you ALL Arab countries are dictatorships but with freindly masks

Also, ALL of the arabic (and Islamic countries) are economically weak. What this means is that there is a general atmosphere of "I mind my own business, after all I need to provide for my family"

I am not saying this mentality is correct, but I am just clarifying how things work over there.
