Aww snap, it's Masaii! Wa aleykumsalam, peace be upon you too mate! Sorry for the late reply bro. I literally just saw this lmao.

To answer your question, I've been doing real good. I didn't do much so far in the summer but I'd be lying if I say that it's a disappointment so far.

I'm still fasting in Ramadan. Only a few days left, this Ramadan has been WAY better for me than compared to last years, so that's a small success in my eyes.

How are things going overseas though, mate. I haven't seen you in a looooong time lmao. Hope all is good over there

Im not very knowledgeable about other cultures so Its hard to compare.

But I've heard other countries don't have anywhere close to the freedom we do, so ima go with that.

freedom to do what...

Freedom to drink = dry states and an average 21 plus
Freedom to have sex = 18 +
Freedom to free speech.... Your always arresting people who expose the truth of what your government / secret services / military get up too
Jesus doesn't Utah have a bikini ban?
Freedom to abortion
Freedom to a public funded health service
freedom to gay marriage??
freedom to cannabis?
freedom to prostitution ?
freedom to drink beer in the streets?
Freedom to being innocent before proven guilty??

Shit the only freedom I can think of is the right to own a gun... and make a lot of money but high living expenses offset that

I am not denying you may have freedoms... but I am interested to know what freedoms because... they ^^^ would say otherwise...


IN THE END you will find America is no freer then most of the western civilised world. Only difference is the Americans go on about it... an not ALL Americans, just the most vocal; who are usually uncultured morons.

You guys have a better standard of life than most other countries. The luxuries that are available to the average American verge on the obscene when compared to other countries, but I'm sure people in those worse off countries would agree that having too many luxuries is definitely better than not having them at all.

Also guns are legal, I fully support that.

you can say whatever you want in america, look at alex jones

when you enter a government position, where you are handling classified shit, and YOU SIGN CONTRACTS SAYING YOU WON'T SHARE ANY OF THAT CLASSIFIED SHIT, then you do, that has nothing to do with freedom of speech. that is high treason.

edward snowden can say whatever he wants. that other bradley dude can say whatever he wants. when you release military information thats alot different than saying fuck the king.

Its called a conclusive statement. I honestly wasn't looking to cut humans to the bone ;) I enjoy the argument and am honestly interested in the intellectual opinions on offer as I am subjected most of the time to opinions of cod players who act like, as I mentioned, uncultured morons. Not verbatim.

Btw I originally didn't like you an just saw you as a troll on my dick but I gotta say I do enjoy our back and forths. Keep it up an come at me with something based on facts an not a typical American trait of I'm

I don't have any money to travel to another country, so i don't know if I'm more free here vs somewhere else

I will say the law has never gotten in my way or have I felt like its infringing on my life in a bad way

But what i hear way more than Americans rambling on about freedom, is random internet foreigners trying to take us down a notch

Like they're trying to make up for 20 years of the US rubbing their noses in it or something

Not a personal attack. I seriously see more people attacking the US than people defending it online

there are no dry states, there are dry counties, because the people who live in those counties vote for them to be dry. its not the government enforcing certain areas to have no alcohol.

i was fucking when i was 12. banged a 13 year old. and from there had sex alot throughout middle and high school. there is no law against it. there are laws against adults having sex with minors. ever hear of a show called 16 and pregnant?

freedom of speech, i already explained that.

utah doesnt have a bikini ban wtf?

you can get abortions.

we have medicare/medicaid if you are too poor for health care. you can go in any ER as well and see a doctor almost immediately.

people get gay married in states that vote to have that available

same with weed, any state that votes to legalise it has it. users aren't punished, the distributors are because they profit off of it and profiting off of it is illegal federally, and will be until its voted on by the nation as a whole

prostitution is legal in nevada i think. not on the corner prostitution but legit brothels and shit.

you can drink beer in the streets as long as your beer is covered with a brown paper bag and you arent causing a scene. thats where public intoxication comes in along with drunk and disorderly etc.

you are innocent until proven guilty. ask george zimmerman

you made up a bunch of shit. you are obviously trolling

i know nothing about the UK. the only thing i do know is you arent allowed to have guns.

Irish people are the greatest people in the world but also the worst too.

It rains all the time, we drink too much, we care too little...and yet I believe we have a grasp on enjoying ourselves and life in general and not taking things too seriously that other countries seriously need. We can make fun of ourselves because we know it is all just a game. We are looking at places like America thinking 'Good for you, well done getting all that money and stuff, relax a bit tho'

That's how I feel about America, a great country with great people...they just need to chill out a bit.

it grows by the second

trillions upon trillions. i dont think anyone knows the exact figure.

the good news is, we as americans dont really care. we'll just make up our own baseless currency and keep it moving

will it affect our trade with other countries? sure

will it matter? not really since we are still spending trillions on military shit like aircraft carriers subs drones planes etc, and buying out whole nations rights to there resources

so we wont really need to trade, but countries will need to trade with us to get at some of the resources we are monopolising

china isnt dumb tho, they're working on gathering as much of these resources as well and its pretty even. so countries might be able to trade with china for those resources for cheaper

but really no ones money is backed by anything, so none of it matters

Okay so Uh Oh your argument is that your government doesn't care about the money because of all the natural resources you have etc. My question now to you is, are you blind? Yes, your government has them, but you have nothing in terms of resources, its not like the country buys a diamond mine and says okay citizens today we are sharing them with everyone so that they may sustain their income. By your government being in debt it effects you directly and your income/quality of life.

i am just saying how i see it. i'm smart enough to know i don't know anything. but i know we are in control of crazy amounts of resources.

im not saying that the government will give all its citizens lithium to buy stuff with. our government will be trading this with other nations who need it, and will pay for it. lithium is just one example. oil another etc.

i can have negative money in my personal bank account, but a house full of gold. if all people can see is my bank account, does that make me poor?

as long as we have resources other nations want we will be fine. we produce enough of everything to be self sustaining, be it food, oil whatever. we will be fine. add on top of that all the resources and nations we indirectly control

the debt is meaningless. otherwise why does the government take no steps in paying it off?

if it was a problem it would be addressed. and they very well could be addressing it every time they buy another aircraft carrier, and more jets and more tanks and more subs etc
