The Hierophant cool down would you...!

What I am trying to get through your own thiiiick skull is that Australia way back was based on the same principles as America...I COULD have set that ALL australians are bandits and robbers shipped off Europe...and that is not the case...as it happens to be I kinda like Dundee and I think that Irwin is a *BeeeP* but what in the world does that have to do with the issue at hand...

So America was founded as a prison colony too? Wow. And America had no slaves, and fought no revolution war either? Wow. I thought America had a civil war too... unlike Australia. I also thought Americans lived inland... unlike Australias coastal obsessions.

Silly me.

In America, like in the rest of the world, the vast majority of the population lives along the coast. The vast majority of the world's population lives along the coast. I guess it's "where it's at."

Yorick...Geeez!
Get back to the issue man....

Really? And what 'principles' were these exactly? Economic? Religious? Competitivly imperial? Something else entirely? Do you even have a clear idea of what you are trying to say in that "thiiick skull" of yours?

Really, really good question. Why does being Australian or American make one innately 'keen' on self-defence? And if so, how would you relate this to the death penalty Sparhawk? And if you indeed feel up to doing that, how does this relate to your apparent gripe with 'American' duplicity concerning human rights?

YOU directed the discussion on a tangent, and then have the nerve to chastise people for straying from 'the issue at hand' [img]graemlins/idontagreeatall.gif[/img]

[/QUOTE]The comparitive amount of the nations population is what I am speaking of. There is no Australian equivalent of Chicago, Atlanta, or other such inland cities.

I give up....Can´t compete with that Hierophant

I´ll conceede to stepping over a line in comparing the two countries...actually I meant it to be a personal comparison between Yorick and america and not Australia in common...but I got OFF the issue myself yes....

For what it is worth...as far as I know Australia does NOT support death penalty
( I am unsure however )
The thing about SELF-DEFENCE did not originate from the death penalty issue...but rather from a mugging on me and my views on generel penalties in Denmark

Please accept my appologies and I´ll let myself be booted my the aussie Pr.Minister
( as in Simpsons )

It takes guts to admit you're wrong. Kudos and salutations to you sir.

You are correct that Australia doesn't have the death penalty.

Bows and licks the boots of the aussies...Gotta remember the CrownPrince is marrying an aussie or tasmanian ( same thing ? )so I´d better be cordial and polite *LOL*

Heh heh. Dude, no need to apologise for anything. Speak your mind, by all means, let it all flow. It's just a good idea to define in your head what it is you want to say, and what you base this on, before you actually say it. Trust me, I've learned this the hard way on many, many different occasions, and I STILL screw up frequently. So yes, your "thiiick skull" comment wasn't far from the truth [img]smile.gif[/img]

And yeah, you have to watch out for that Aussie Prime Minister, viscious bugger. He wears steel-studded rugby-boots when he does his butt-punting...
OUR (NZ) Prime Minister is much more civilised, she wears high-priced stillettos instead

Peace and Truce man [img]smile.gif[/img]
