This idiot needs to read a history book or a newspaper:

Keep in mind im a patriotic American, but I hate idiots who think America rules the world....because it dosent even come close. Anyway with the many inteligent non American posters on this board(most boards im on 90% of the people are Americans.....I find I like this board the most out of any board I post on though heh).

I was just talking to my friend, who is an idiot and he said the following:

Things he's said:
-Any special forces officer could take out any of the martial arts masters in hand to hand, unarmed/melee, one on one combat.
-The US Military can take on any enemy force without a problem and is the most battle ready.
-All the extra security since 9/11 is unnecessary since we *obviously* got all of Al-Qaeda and no other group would DARE attack us, no sir!
-Just general "US has the best..."
--Energy Production
--Economy
--Cars
--Sports (He totally disregards the World Cup since its not a major America-based championship)
--Education system
--Etc....

Heh, I have friends like that. except they call soccer a "*** sport" because it wasn't created in America. of course they suck at it too.

[MrWhereItsAt]

Has your friend ever left the States?

If not, with an attitude like that he should be afraid to!

The Americans overseas I have met are fantastic people, great representatives for their country, but I imagine an American like that living overseas wouldn't make many friends.

by any chance do your friends live in the south or not have access to a newspaper at least once a month?

[David James]

This guy wouldn't happen to be a straw man, would he?

Such people are the greatest threat to US power of all.

If they ever became a majority then US power would have the life expectancy of a candle under the Nigaria Falls.

--Education system

c'mon Veysan! Those are undisputed facts!

-Any special forces officer could take out any of the martial arts masters in hand to hand, unarmed/melee, one on one combat.

Steven Segal! You mean you've never seen the way he beats the daylights out of all those "ferners" :gasp:

-The US Military can take on any enemy force without a problem and is the most battle ready.

Red Dawn?! Don't tell me you never saw that one!

-All the extra security since 9/11 is unnecessary since we *obviously* got all of Al-Qaeda and no other group would DARE attack us, no sir!

Absolutely true! Al-Qaeda is extinct. No other terrorist organization would even think about trying a stunt like that now! We showed 'em good!

*sigh* I know what you mean, bro....'bout the only thing he sorta got right was the economy....no question that it's the biggest....as for being the best? Depends on what measures you use. In some ways, yes. But it's interesting that of all his statements that was the ONLY one I could find a grain of truth in...lol

-=Vel=-
PS: Maybe in overall combat readiness too...since we're pretty mobilized at the moment, but....yeah....tell him to get out more....

We get those people in Australia too. They're called the One Nation Party.

Oh, I think our richest rich people get a good education too, what with Oxford and Eton and all.
