Could you clarify something for me, as a foreigner I simply wouldn't know.
When you say Tyrone can buy a Tec 9 illegally do you mean some paddy immigrant from bandit country or do you mean something else?

Just for clarification like as it may clear up why some "patriot" vets are on the government watch list.

That's actually incorrect. There are many Americans who do not live inside a bubble.

When I say Tyrone can buy a TEC9 from the back of a car, I mean that anybody can buy a TEC9 illegally, anywhere, in any country.

You seem to be a little heated. Was it the comment about your beloved terrorist group known as the IRA?

I think they only loved them when they were acting against British forces and not Irish civilains (if they ever even loved them), which I'm pretty sure they started doing at some point

With that I rest my case. You can't refute a solid fact!

Oh and for the record, my step-father is English. I'm actually of Irish descent, but at least I have the ability to discern a terrorist who should be on a watch list, and somebody who just really cares about their country.

I also have the ability to ignore folks who interject into matters they don't belong.

It's a great skill to have in these days of internet tough guys!

Oh and to answer your question, yes the IRA has executed their own on a number of occasions. I would say that's a terrorist group and not an Army. Lord Mountbatten was a prime example (though he wasn't Irish). HE alone was their target, but because they're an unprofessional rabble, they took out innocents along with him. I don't have respect for people like that, Irish or not!

Wait, I'm confused, do you think that I'm arguing with you? If that's the case, I'm sorry for the misunderstanding.

Nope, I actually agree with you! The IRA has killed their own!

Also just because I choose to not get involved in European affairs does not mean that I'm ignorant as to what's going on in Europe. My country here in the US is having its own trouble, and my allegiance is to the land of my birth, as it should be.

Sarcasm meter not working too well?

Yes dear, common phraseology isn't known outside the bubble

What next Juanita and her anchors?

Epic fail.

The only person getting heated is yourself, you started getting hot right from the start of the topic, you really moved towards the boil when foreigners commented.

For an even bigger fail....

Well done, you just condemned your own army and other armies as terrorists

What was it they called the innocents while you was protecting your country in Iraq?

That's true. I try to keep myself updated on Russian and Chinese news.(I figure if WW3 ever happens it will be the US with it's allies fighting either one or both of those two countries and their allies.)

I feel there's just going to be so much legislation come down the pike in such a short amount of time, that we'll all be felons overnight eventually.

Hopefully if anything truly egregious becomes law we finally rise up and throw the traitors out of office.

At which point they will be replaced with another bunch of dickheads who are very quickly indistinguishable from the crowd you throw out, just like any revolution.
Unless of course you really go on the Weimar line and replace them with an even worse bunch

I consider phrases such as "yes dear" to be intentionally demeaning and inflamatory.

Much like "young man". Just my opinion though, so I've deleted my post.

Well the 1776 revolution at least for the first few presidents seemed to not go that route so maybe the revolution of 20XX might just do that as well?

Thus always the stowaways who talk the biggest.
