you are right thought, people as a whole are retarded and assume that you guys want that.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

Fair enough. Do you allow me to hate you officially?

Go right the fuck ahead, I could not care less frog.

we only want to be our own country (somewhat) but plz don't associate me with separatists, I don't consider myself to be one.

[Conspicuously Absent]

it's the 'somewhat' part that pisses me off. From what I remember, you guys wanted to be your own country, yet we give you a shitload of money for no reason.

What would happen, if I'm not mistaken, is that all our taxes would go to Quebec's gouvernment that would manage the money... the weird part is that we would still be using canada's money (for practical reasons I guess), and we would keep the same commercials relations with canada. I don't think canada would keep on giving us shitload of money after that... we would be on our own in those terms. Researches tell that if we would separate, we would be around 15th-20th position in terms of national wealth.

meh, as i understand it: algerians in france "cant find jobs" so they are rioting in virtually all major cities in france. the french government refuses to acknowledge "racial differences" so theres no bullshit like we have here in America, namely affirmative action. in my opinion, france and their government fucking rules.
i can understand the algerians' irritation at not being able to get jobs. BUT, they should also prepare for some serious ass-whoopin' retaliation. i mean, burning peoples cars and houses? wtf?

 

[Demonspell]

People should adopt a more universal view... like... being proud of being born on earth? It's one big place with frontiers that silly humans traced. Let's be proud of our planet instead of our country, and let's start kicking some aliens' asses.

That could have worked if our great civilization wasn't built by trampling over mother earth...I agree that militant nationalism only causes problems, and France's policy of treating its immigrants like dogshit is partly to blame for this (though burning cars won't change anything), but unless you respect nature, being a resident of this shitheap isn't something to take pride in...
Newsflash: The French have a magical solution to the riots: mandatory curfews!

paris>any other city

 

[lizard]

no.

it constantly makes me laugh to see americans pay huge amounts of money to vacation in a city known for its rudeness. incredible. kudos to the French for purpetrating (sp) one of the great sales jobs of all time.

and I'm not one of those American rabid "I hate all French" people. that's just stupid.

 

[Ellestin]

Yeah Paris sucks pretty bad. Each time I have to spend some time there it's like a survival horror game.

Province > Paris + suburbs

paris>any other city

Sorry, but NYC >>>>>>>> Paris

any city with a population higher than about 100-200,000 is sure to be an absolute shithole

no idea what that is supposed to mean but i quite firmly believe that man was NOT meant to live in cities as big as that, it's absolute fucking lunacy

It means you're a RETARD

It's one thing to say that you're not meant to live in a big city - that's fine. It's quite a different thing to say that any city w/ more than 200K people is an "absolute shithole."

[Erik]

yeah ok, 90% of any city with more than 200k people is an absolute shithole. i mean really woo poverty murder homelessness pollution overcrowding decaying old buildings robbery not being able to walk home safely at night segregated negro areas, where the fuck do i sign up
