I've never been anywhere!!! THe only place I've been on the list was Las Vegas, and when I went there I was onl 10 years old!!! The only thing I remember there was the porn magazine machines in front of McDonalds! (wtf is that about?)
Although I do plan to leave this great country for atleast a few years some time.

Every American should visit other countries. Especially Asia. You will come home with a whole new view.

You will say stfu to peeps whining about anything to do with this country. I listed in another thread somewhere, sometime ago where ive been. Alot o places. Shenzhen too via HK (14 times since '96)

The country I am most impressed with?? OURS!! Lotta crime? yep. CUS THERE IS ALOT TO STEAL!!! DUH. lotta Guns? YEP. And what are you gonna do about it *pointing assault rifle at your forehead*

Are we arrogant? NOPE. Just people. Just like you. Just more fortunate to be born/live in a well balanced nation. Sure we throw around our military might, again, what are you gonna do about it *pointing an ICBM at you country*. Just dont f*ck with any of our friends or economic interests.

Theres a good chance Ive been to your country. I am sure I was intrgued. Definitely had fun. (yes, even thru jungle training in Pananma) Oh I surely took advantage of your women, bet that!!!

This country was bulit by many nationalities, always remember that. Should keep the racial/ethnic slurs quenched!

Oh 1 more thing, keep your fighter planes away from our spy aircraft, then we wont have to stop our ongoin patrols over your nation.

[B.C.]

If you guys are planning a to go on a vacation, don't go to Singapore! You will regret it, I swear!

i am not usually a racist guy, I have friends from russia, japan, sweden, south africa, brazil, taiwan and etc..

But i just can't help myself being racist to those Singaporean.I might be racist, but i am telling the truth.

I once lived there, and i have been living under discrimination, humiliation and embrassment for four years. mad: You guys espically Chinese and other people from poorer countries, don't even think about living there, because i can gurantee that you will experience the same thing as I did.

White guys and Japanese should live there, becasue you will have hired 4.9 million slaves, without having paying a single penny...

Also I don't find it a problem discriminating them, becasue they did totally the same thing to me when i was only 4 years old and it lasted for four years.

On the other hands malaysian are nice people. Unlike SINGAPOREANS :D :

[HortonsWho]

Toronto
Newfoundland (HIGHLY recommended for a peaceful vacation)
England (London, Coventry, Lincoln, Cotswolds)
Tijuana :rolleyes:

[outdoor]

i hope i can get a chance to go to europe!
all the beautiful scenes, views, flowers, cars, women (hell yeah!) :cool:

heh. :p

You must have AIDS by now. Check with your doctor.

We will send our patrols over ur border and you keep your fighter planes away from our spy planes if this is the case.

[Recon]

What makes you think your planes arenot already flying in our airspace?

Dont be so typically nieve. While in shanghai in OCT, a female sales Rep. got into a big "debate" over this topic. She made it sound like "that poor chinese fighter pilot". HE WAS A DUMBASS.

He is flying a plane far more agile than our spy plane. Yet we hit him? No. The dip**** was playing games with our pilot, known as "chicken" in the US, and he lost. Big time. Got what he deserved.

Bottom line, we will always spy on China, China will always spy on us. Nothing you or I can say will ever change that. Lets hope your pilots have learn to not fly so close to larger planes.

Several years ago, an american submarine collided with a Russian Sub off russian coastline. Same scenario. Both Captains playing a game of chicken. This too will always continue. Not that americans in general approve of our nations world police policy, but they do it.

I was in the US military for 3 years. I dont agree with everything, but thats not my place. I kill who im told to kill. Ask why later.

Your president was caught on film laughing about what happened on 9/11. Gee, we were sooo surprised. NOT. Thats why your nations status will always remain a "gaurded" friendship. Shake your right hand, with our left "on the button".

I dunno. Used to be USSR vs. US. Now it's China Vs. US. But, I don't think China has such long-range spy planes. Anyways, I agree with you on that Chinese fighter pilot though. HE WAS A DUMBASS. He could have easily avoided any crash attempt by the spy plane. But not the same when the tables are turned around. However, he may have been ordered to play chicken with the spy plane. As you have said below later, you are told what your told to do and ask later. That pilot was only doing what he was told to if he was told to play chicken Don't think only from your viewpoint.

I'm only 16. How can I not be naive? Your a businessman already, (or that's what I heard be4) + experience in the army. How can I know what you've experienced in life?

Does US spy on Canada? Does Canada spy on US? Maybe yes, but probably not since Canada is a weak military nation and Canada shares the world's longest undefended border. So it is possible that nations do not spy on each other. Just a case of solving mutual uneasiness and cultural mistrust of each other.

You kill who your told to kill. Ask why later. That's U.S. military doctrine? Sounds cruel. No wonder there's been so many error bombings in Afghanistan killing innocent lives and bombing of Chinese embassy.

Never caught our president laughing btw. Never paid too much attention to 9/11. other than it's impact on global economy and in the computer industry. The world must run on even with disasters like 9/11.

Shake your right hand, with our left "on the button". What does that mean?

[SunnyDay]

Hehehe We don't spy on Canada... I've been there.. Its basically just a US territory with funny money...

[B.C.]

That is so true!!!!!! Sunnyday:D

Basically what can Canada do the effect the world?:confused:

ehhhhhhhhhhhh, basically nothing at all!!!!!!!

[Recon]

The global economy was already in bad shape before 9/11.

And i personally believe it had little efect on the economy in general. Minor things like travel and tourism, sure.

As far as military doctrine, that's how ALL militaries are. Welcome to reality. You are not required to make deciisions, only follow orders. I am pretty sure your pilot was ordered to follow our spy plane. Ordered to play chicken, nope. Thats just something they, pilots, do.

Funny the word you use "crash attempt". Why the hell would a spy plane try to collide with a fighter jet? Over another nation no less, with a crew aboard. lmao

both of our countries fill the media with propaganda. So anything in print should be viewed with cautious eyes and question every word. Example, former pres Clinton visited China. In a press conference, he stated

"i can gaurentee, there is not one nuclear weapon from china pointed at the US."

Your DAMN RIGHT, theres hundreds if not thousands pointed at the US.

Right you are Sunnyday. Canada is the last country the US needs to be concerned about. But im sure we have a few satelites pointed that way just the same.

While in China Oct 7-15, I watched the news. Govt run tv BTW. Of a 1/2 hr of news, 30 seconds was spent on what the US was doin in AFGANY. Granted I was in Shanghai, mainland China. You are in HK, Much more access to world news like CNN, ABC, NBC, etc.

Ya drop 10,000 bombs, odds are, a few will bounce around. O well. The price of war. Tough. I say Nuke the whole f*ckin country. Along with pakisstan, Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait. Then take over the oil. Its time we stopped being nice. If we are contiually portrayed as war mongers, then fukem, we will show em what a war monger is.

Have a nice day.:D

[Masterblaster 43]

Canada: Vancover
Peru: Lima, Cusco, Iquitos(deep in the rain forest on the amazon river)

[SunnyDay]

Ya your right Recon, I'm pretty sure we are watching every country no matter how small a threat... And I'm ok with that. Better safe than sorry.
And your right about this country. I'm damn glad I live here. I try not to take it for granted. The living conditions here are incredible. Food, shelter, and safety. Other places are great to visit, but I'm happy to be here in the US.

[Ajenthavoc]

no comment, don't wanna get myself in trouble

[SunnyDay]

I don't know about where ya live, but here in Utah its pretty good... cept for the liquer laws and the overwhelming religious presence. Although I'm sure thats a big part of why the quality of life is good here. Its a healthy place- to bad I'm not into that healthy stuff...


God the state run liquer stores here suck.

[B.C.]

Are there any private universities in Utah Sunnyday, because i am interested in studying solar energy, and contribute my studies to my country.

Lucky Mao chat dong is dead.:D

Ok, I buy that, the global economy was bad already be4 9/11.

As for the decisions, because you've served with the army, I no doubtly will have to believe what you have said, lest ur lying about ur army tour of duty. But, haven't you ever questioned ur superiors on some specific orders? Unless your a truly cold-blooded robot(which you are when you play UT), all humans have to some extent a curiousity about some things.

As for the last part, you are terribly cruel. The acts of the coutnries, the govt. do not represent the entire interests of the country. There ARE people who are innocent, maybe some are even U.S.-sympatheic, and nuking often causes mass destruction of lives and major collateral damage. Your country does not in any means have the right to take the lives of a person for it's own greedy reason. Each person should have it's right to live in the world. Plus, your country is a democratically elected country. Can your president justify the use of nuclear arms in this massive destruction campaign in front of it's citizens? Nukes were intended as a last ditch defense, not a first-hand offense. If your country is portrayed as war mongers, that's becuz your country is one. You are the world's only superpower, remember. You control the global economy, not us in Hong Kong, not Argentinians, not Europeans. All eyes are focused on your country's economy. Plus, your coutnry possess the world's strongest military. No doubtedly your country will be easliy mistaken as a war monger when it does any military moves. Finally, if I remember this as true, the U.S. never provided it's funding towards United Nations, yet it keeps on asking for support of the U.N. on various issues. All other countries pay their dues towards U.N. on time, but not the U.S. Shouldn't we kick the U.S. out of U.N.? Hell no, becuz they are the world's strongest power, that alone makes them a must in any global conference table, even if member nations have to stand paying fees while U.S. doesn't pay. Doesn't this infuriate other nations? I think it does.

[outdoor]

mm....

you guys sure write 'long' stuff that is "quite" off topic in my thread....... hehe...... j.k.......... :p

by the way, MM, you really are in the Navy? cool!:)

[Recon]

Nope, our president wont ever just Nukem. I can say that alot of US citizens wouldnt have had a problem with an Afgany parking lot shortly after 9/11.

Hell, we had the fine city of Berkley ralling against the war. Useless idiots. You threow a stone , i throw a bullet, you throw a bullet, i throw a bomb, eventually youll wake up or youll die.

As for innocent peeps. Well, 4000 - 5000 peeps didnt have a chance. When the death toll reaches that number TIMES 100 (for revenge), then we can talk about innocent. Til then, tough ****. If you dont handle your business in your country, dont bitch when someone else does.

Yep, I guess the US dont pay the UN dues. CUS we to busy sending money to every country in the UN for some BS reason. My taxes would be alot cheaper if we said FO to all these little bastard countries that cant support themselves, and tell the UN to "pound sand". Then we have enough money to support the needy, Like DAV, the peeps who truly earned the right to call themselves AMERICAN.

Further to vent my anger, the families of these FILTHY animals that are responsible for 9/11, should be killed in the most violent fashion known to man. You produce **** like that, YOUR responsible. Had you not roduced that POS, it wouldnt have happened. DIE YOU FILTHY ROTTEN SON OF A BITCH< DIE

MM, cool, was at Schofield brks, 18 months, from '86 - '88.

[B.C.]

Well then should China Killed that thirteen cowards, from you country that killed our pilot. I don't know what does the American wants, you talk about human rights, democrazy, freedom, but you are spying one us, We Chinese find that very offending are rights. Huh!"!!

Did those thirteen bastard and bitches ever realized that what they have done, have caused a three year old kid to lost his dad, a happy family scattered. huh!!! Also the wife of the pilot, even stood on the families of the thirteen bastards and bitces side and asked the Chinese government to let them go, becasue their families are worry about them. huh, huh, huh, huh. Your so called heroes, spend easter with their families, and there will never be a family reunion to the to the victims family. You Americans always calls yourself the country of justice, freedom, kind,etc, but where they huh, are you guys only lying to the world.

Is it because that we are Chinese, we have to feel sorry for the what you called white racist huh, and on the other hand, because we are Chinese or other racist, our lives are nothing but ****, and we shall die or be humiliated by you people. Huh Huh HUH.!!!!!
Did any of those families members of the thirteen SOB ever said something to the the pilots wife huh, your country wasn't able to give us one simple apology.

Well then what the hell is the difference between Americans and Japanese, can't even give an apology for they know they had done wrong. Aslo the president of yours filthy BUSH was like asking us nicely to please let the thirteen SOB go, OK so we let them go, and what do know the next day, you filthy president 180 degrees change his damn attitude, trying to blame everything to us. only jerks and cheap asses do that, and of course cowards.

Also please remember that the Chinese pilots body was never found, he can't even rest in peace.

If you guys like to humiliate other racist, I have got a suggestion, go to Taiwan, those loooooooooooooooooooosers are willing to be American dogs. Also Taiwanese and Chinese are different, Chinese are poor but they got self respect, but taiwan they eat **** everyday, and they can't do anything without the U.S. at their back. They are also the disgrace of the Chinese people and the disgrace of their ancesstors.


Also let me remind you Recon and the others, Three Chinese citizens has died under irresponsible American military actions.

I mean every word here, and US has disappointed a lot of people, for what they are doing these few years.


Remeber don't compare us Chinese with those looooooooooooooooooooooosers Taiwanese, because that is the most humiliating thing ever.

[B.C.]

Also I am a very fair guy, i admit that my country China, has done a lot of wrong things. Espically that Mao Chat Dong punk, i wished his family and his next generations would all diein the most terrifying way, because if it wasn't for him and his communist party, China would be a great place. That $$$$ing education reveloution has caused us alot, and thanks to MR. Mao Chat Dong. **** that SOB. If it wasn't for that, China will be U.S biggest competitor.

I really wish you people study Chinese history, before suggesting to free TIBET. Then you will know why. If you still don't get it, ask me, I know why.:)

[Recon]

China is great for the US economy. I wont say why, you already know.

As far as your pilot.

How did our plane hit yours? yours, a Mig fighter, fast and agile, like a sports car. Ours, a large slow moving prop aircraft, like a large truck. So the sports car cuts off the semi. Semi destroys sports car. Who is at fault? Whether or not the truck should be ther, WHO IS AT FAULT? why was he soo close?

Ok, now your the pilot of the spy plane. You have two fighter planes "observing you". Do you attempt to collide with them? Only if your stupid.

Now your the fighter pilot. Do you try to collide with a larger plane, much less any plane, No. So in your eyes, how did it happen? This will be amusing to hear.
