If I say America is the world's greatest terrorist state, and I do a half decent job of backing it up, that 'aint slander. Same thing goes for the other side. [/B]

If you simply state 'America is a terrorist state' you deserve a public nut kicking. No matter how much you back it up. Try to bring it in a more civilized manner instead if insulting people. (Even though you don't insult me with this it does insult many others here)

Try something like; "America is also to blame, not just the obvious terrorist states. Perhaps even more then them. [insert reasoning here]"

It basically means the same but tends to be perceived in a less hostile way. :)

I was under the impression that the petty complaints of people who want only to see their country's name untarnished no matter the reality should be ignored. Doesn't matter who it insults, if its true (true being defined as having ample evidence to support it) then I can say what I like. I try to make statements in nice, happy face language, but sometimes I just can't bear it.

If, for example, Liberator stated that Iran is a terrorist state, no one would bat an eyelash. Despite the fact that Country X (whichever one you want to put in) has done more "bad stuff" than Iran, people hold Country X is such high regard that they can't bear even to hear is talked of in such a manner. Thats a double standard and its BS.

Arghh, here we go.

edit: Go ahead, say that Serbia commited genocide. I'll get pissed, not because of the manner in which you said it, but becuase its not true. I'll get pissed, but its your right to say it. Its not slander, its simply a differing opinion. No one should hold their country above criticism.

Wrong. This is a community. You can't say justever the hell you want. Some people think they can. That is the cause of the thread lockage. Try to be more civil about the message you try to convey.

And if you get pissed off that easily there is no place for you in a proper political debate. Period.

Political discussion: A discussion relating to or dealing with the structure or affairs of government, politics, or the state.

Morality discussion: A discussion about the relation of conformity or nonconformity to the moral standard or rule; quality of an intention, a character, an action, a principle, or a sentiment, when tried by the standard of right.
