Americans and their guns...

I find Americans to be unbelieveable! Their "we sell guns in stores yo!" 'gangsta' image is not really the most community-friendly image around and stores like (http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/capress/090221/world/pregnant_woman_killed) do not reassure you into thinking we are living in a safe location on top of one of the most killer countries in the world. They call Pakistan the "axis of evil" when they are the country due to utter doom. When you let events such as the one listed above, that is just crossing the line. I mean, I know that there are some nice and peaceful Americans out there, such as my friend Micah and my cousins in Florida, California, Texas, Virginia, Washington D.C., New York, New Jersey, and Oregon, but let's face it- a majority of them are idiots. Now, I know that was rather rude, but seriously, how many Americans think that New York City or Manhattan is the capital of New York? I am sure only 10% of the entire population (including people living in New York) know that Albany is the capital and it is in New York State. Also, 99.9% of Americans are oblivious to the fact that July 1st is Canada Day, including my cousins. And, if not living stupidity, then what would you call a country that gives a free gun with each car at a used car store?


I suppose this should have gone on the ranting blog, but I wanted you guys to see it here. I feel like there are no more nice people in the world, and by that I mean truly nice. People who give to charity, and follow Gandhi's words. I mean is there anyone in the world who does not swear, does not make fun of people, does not laugh at other's mistakes, stops on the road to give a helping hand, or even says sorry after pushing someone else? **Sighs** I think my parents were right, the world is a corrupt place.

Copy and paste maybe?
Nobody can be perfect, and that is a good thing. Don't expect it.
And what did I tell you about perfection last year?

Ghazal said...

I know but after reading this story my expectations have declined substantially.

Yoritomo Yukiharu said...

So... there ARE a lot of idiots here. I don't know about the gun stuff, and I really don't like geography.
BUT! I'd like to make a few points:
1. Bush said the "axis of evil" stuff, and I, for one, dislike him
2. There are idiots everywhere
3. The world may be corrupt, but there are those few that have resisted

Jessica said...

Wait, wait, if your expectations now are "People who give to charity, and follow Gandhi's words. I mean is there anyone in the world who does not swear, does not make fun of people, does not laugh at other's mistakes, stops on the road to give a helping hand, or even says sorry after pushing someone else?"

WHAT WERE THEY BEFORE???????

-horror movie music-

You've brought out the emo in me. I'm crying on the inside and writing bad poetry cuz I'm not good enough for you.

=(

Jessica said...

And he brings up a good point(Yuki, I mean)

Ghazal said...

Look, I am sorry if I offended anyone. Really really sorry! In fact I do not fit those characteristics myself, I was just ranting because I hated that bit of news.

Jessica said...

No, none taken, I was kidding =D

Bre said...

Ghazal let it GO! I think that's one of the unnessasry truths. And be glad the American's who read your blog don't have access - or the energy to hurt you ;)- But sadly true America is full of idiots!

Ghazal said...

I just feel bad for Micah and his friends. They should consider moving to Canada.

Jessica said...

If all the smart Americans move to Canada, I call dibs on letting P!ATD, Paramore, and Fall Out Boy stay at my house!

The Atlantean said...

sorry to break it too you, but they're pretty much pretty boys who don't know the difference between a tangelo and mandarin.

Ghazal said...

There is a huge difference between a tangelo and a mandarin, and I think even S-Boy could tell you that.

Jessica said...

Paramore has a girl in it.
I win.

Yoritomo Yukiharu said...

Micah just may be on to something...
Note: watch out for the pretty boy and pretty girl crack heads
Anyways... I'm honestly not offended at all, and following that ideal person thing isn't as easy as it seems (and it doesn't seem easy)... I try, but I can't always do it...

Ghazal said...

I do not think I fit those ideals either. I mean, I do not swear, but I do lie sometimes.

Jessica said...

-gasp- You? Never!
And Kanishkan says that if you want people to stop making fun of you, you shouldn't make fun of them(The Mayans, for example?)

Ghazal said...

I am not telling people to stop making fun of me. And, you can tell him that I show my gratitude for the lesson in idealism...

Jessica said...

I would if I understood what that meant...
I know what the words mean but I can't string them together.

Ghazal said...

Oubliez le rapport.

Ghazal said...

Forget it!

Jessica said...

I knew what it meant, the french was a bit random, though.

Ghazal said...

Okay.

SamiltonRulz said...

I personally don't think there are mroe idiots here than anywhere else.

Jessica said...

But you guys kind of flaunt it sometimes (coughcoughbritneyspearscoughcough)
