Hello have you ever heard of democracy? The public majority decides the next government.

Who voted the Republicans back into power?

---

Ever heard of "Bush Cheated on the Elections"? :huh:

Quote:

---

Didnt the American public vote him back because he promised to not bring back the troops till vengeance was done?

---

Yes, but thats not what brought him into power.

Didnt the republicans say that Kerry's words were cause for celebration for the terrorists?

---

Kerry made a million things wrong in his campagne! Saying "If u do good in school, then ur smart, if u do bad in school u end up in Iraq" just being the slighest mistake. That man lost himself the election! Even an idiot won't vote for him! We didn't want another Bush! :P Kerry was just a very bad Democratic Candidate.

Yes I agree there are people who dont agree with the Bush policies

That is the striking majority! Bush won the first time, because he cheated. (Watch F9-11 for more info on that. Awesome Documentary! :thumbsup: ) He didn't win the 2nd time because of War-Hungry Americans. Thats a silly assumption. War isn't the only things the republicans support, there are other things like Anti-Homosexuality, Anti-Abortion, Anti-Stem Cell Reserch etc etc, there are A LOT of Strong Xtians who will vote for Bush just for this, but that doesn't mean they support the Iraq War. They believe so strongly in the Bible that, their urge to safe guard those rules overpowers everything else! That doesn't mean that they're war hungry! :D They rely of the Republicans to safeguard these rules, becaues Democrats are Secular and won't follow an xtian agenda, and even more than the war, it was these core principles that the Republicans propagated during the 2nd election! :) That's why he won, because it was a sensitive time for xtians, and the republicans did the right lobbying. :)

Again: Americans Aren't War Hungry! :)

maithree...so the americans dint care for innocent iraqis being killed!

Gun Control in India. This is what you need. :)

* their date of birth;
* the availability of a safe place to store the firearm and ammunition;
* the purpose for which they require a firearm;
* any previous criminal record or prohibition to possess a firearm. However, if the report of the police officer is not sent within the prescribed time limit (3 months), the licensing authority may grant the licence.

It doesn't seem that hard to get a gun in India either. :?


but this is very good. This is how it sould be here also! :) But banning guns all together isn't the right thing to do. :D


BUT!...

Just like anyother law in india, this is virutually useless, as it isn't very hard to get them illegally.

India accounts for the majority of small arms in South Asia, which has an estimated 75 million firearms (63 million of which are in civilian possession). (3)

Reg American Movies:

Action Adventure is only one genre of American Movies. There is also "Comedy, Romance, Drama, Romantic Comedy etc etc) The movies in other Genres also get released frequently, sometimes even more so than the Action Adventure Genre, as opposed to Tamil Movies which has xtream violent Content in almost every other movie, and those movies are open for everyone of all ages to see, and are not frequently ristricted with an "A" Certificate when needed.

And If i remember correctly, the Indian censor board has only recently been very strict on not letting minors into A Certificate films. :)

Like I said, it's the lobbying. The republicans used these other issues to lobby more so than anything else...Propaganda can really shut the eyes of ppl...and that's what is going on here right now.

Infact, many americans have started to watch BBC, because the American Media which is mainly owned by Bush's Party propagates the wrong things. :) What is really going on in Iraq isn't what we hear here because of the Bias republican Media.

It's not just one thing, it's many things which one them the election. But one thing is for sure, Americans being War Hungry isn't an accurate accusation.

OK :D

:shock:


Virginia gunman sent final video

Cho's package to NBC contained pictures of himself with guns

Killer's TV video
The student who shot dead at least 30 people at Virginia Tech sent a package to the US TV network NBC News on the day of the shootings, police said.

The package contained "disturbing" photographs, video and writings, NBC said, posted from the college campus between the two rounds of killings.

Cho Seung-hui is shown pointing guns at the camera, and ranting angrily.

A total of 33 people, including the gunman himself, died in shootings at two locations on Monday.

"You had a hundred billion chances and ways to have avoided today," the 23-year-old gunman said angrily, in an excerpt shown on NBC Nightly News.

"But you decided to spill my blood. You forced me into a corner and gave me only one option. The decision was yours. Now you have blood on your hands that will never wash off," Cho said.

"I didn't have to do this. I could have left. I could have fled. But now I will no longer run," the gunman said.

Police have revealed that Cho was admitted to a mental health unit in late 2005.

He was sent for evaluation after two female students made complaints against him, they said.

'Very angry'

NBC said a time stamp on the package indicated it was sent in the two-hour interval between two killings in a dormitory and a second, massive round of killings in a classroom building.

The envelope, sent to NBC's headquarters in New York, was slightly misaddressed and carried the wrong postal zip code, which delayed its delivery by a day.

The TV network said the package was received in Wednesday morning's mail.

It contained an 1,800-word diatribe and 43 photos, 11 of them showing Cho aiming handguns at the camera. He also sent 28 video clips.

Head of NBC News Steve Capus said it had a "rambling, manifesto-like statement embedded with a series of photographs."

Mr Capus said the material was "hard-to-follow... disturbing, very disturbing - very angry, profanity-laced," but did not contain any images of Monday's shootings.

Student complaints

Two people were killed at the West Ambler Johnston Hall, a university dormitory, at 0715 on Monday.

Two hours later Cho killed 30 others, plus himself, at the Norris Hall complex across campus.

Authorities have not yet linked the 23-year-old to any of those he killed.

Police say the same gun was used at both locations but have not definitely proved that Cho was at West Ambler Johnstone at the time of the shootings there.

The complaints by students against Cho were made in November and December 2005, around the time Cho's English teachers raised concerns over his writing and general behaviour.

In the aftermath of the shootings, teachers and fellow students have spoken of Cho's extreme moods, violent writings and unpredictable behaviour.
