you in jail for defending yourself against criminals in your own homes! Talk
about a legal system on its head.


I am proud we dutch have had the guts to *regulate* euthanasia.
I hope you won't be hit by lungcancer and in the end when you're
almost suffocate your eventual question for a mercyful and dignified
end won't be denied. And when you trust some doctor can be persuaded
to help you then that is right on the spot the subject that should be
dealt with legally.

When you are against euthanasia for a religious reason I think you're
totally free in that choice. But where did you get the right to tell
others to suffer where they have no bibletext to fear?
Another example, where do christians obtain the right to prevent
homosexuals to become happy?
It's sad to see how, in "the finest country in the world", dictatorial
christian fundamentalists manipulate even the supreme court so their
views will be exercised for the next 30 years. Why can't you seperate

I am worried about radical islamic youth in my country... I wouldn't
call it racism but it is sad that I get extra cautious when I step
into a train with a group of 'm...

I was born in Poland myself, and lived in Norway for a while. I will tell
you I would rather live in the U.S. then anywhere else. The kindness of
people, opportunities, and openess is amazing.


I am sure, and I can verify it every day that the people I meet are
almost always kind, open and fun to be with. I make friends all the
time. I am sure there are lot's of americans I could have lifelasting
friendships with but that wasn't the point.
The point here is can you take 5 seconds in which you stop pointing
back at me with all kinds of mirrorred critiques and have a good look
at how things are becoming in the us.
