Americans FAIL

[gbhunter8]

They all say that America sucks, yet they listen to our music, watch our TV, follow our tabloids, look to our government for guidence, play our video games, etc. I find it funny that they hate us yet are trying so hard to be like us. (well other than the dentistry of course, meet a Brit and you'll see that). I'm not trying to say America is the best country in the world but look around. You're probably wearing an American clothes style right now. Oh and this is an American website. Just saying..

[zrf11]

Do not come in the way of Jesus CHRISTI plan..

[TheSleepyPOTATO]

I love this video. Also fcuckerhead is one of those people who act like they are the most important person in the world just like MOST other Americans. And I hate how they rip on Europe and England; they can't even speak English properly. So basically to all Americans fuck off and stop ripping on other people that are equal to you

[zeldagamerDX6]

it's sad that a 19 yr old knows that much, and men much older than him who should know more and should be looked up to by him, don't even know a fraction of what he has just explained. that is why america is going down hill. because people can't act their age.

[zeldagamerDX6]

these "men" should act their age and be men of practicality, and open-minded tactical thought. not acting 30 yrs younger than what they are, like they are still boys in college. look alive men!, be ever vigilant, keep and open mind, and be aware of your surroundings at all times.

[zeldagamerDX6]

"IF ONLY AMERICANS CARED AS MUCH ABOUT THER FREEDOM, AS THEY DID PROFESSIONAL SPORTS." well, I agree with that. most american men don't act like real men. instead of educating themselves about the gravity of the situation of this country, and then taking action, they are more interested about the latest sports scores. that is not going to give any tactical advantage when the moral pillars holding this country up collapse from beneath it.

[CanadianStereotype]

Nobody realizes that were up here rolling in money and laughing our asses off.

[James92802]

It took a Jimmy Carter to arrouse Americans to elect a Ronald Reagan --

Okay we have another Jimmy Carter....

[James92802]

Well you don't seem to be watching -- we did organize, we do protest, and we do vote -- You will see the results in 2010 and 21012 -

Just not the people you wanted organizing, protesting, and voting.

You don't seem to understand, Liberals have once again aroused American anger - last time you did that we got Ronald Reagan -- with all my heart please let us see another like him.

[PObserver]

I've given up really, I just want to drop out of society. My society is not my own, I don't recognize anything that I should care about within my society. Movies, TV, whatever they sell, I don't identify with it. I don't want to identify with it. I'm done with Western society. That is where I am; I've dropped out.

[noreast77]

@PObserver everything in western "culture" is a parody of itself!

[zacdrury]

does it make you a patriot for making this video fuck no,even if we protest this shit it aint gonna end,and you could have picked a differnt country ,ass

[im23412313]

America isn't the only place that attends sporting events while there are civil injustices going on. This happens all over the place. Picking on the U.S. is typical though, seems to be in vogue for people from other nations.

[LawAbidingHipster]

Discuss issues in a civilized way and then he said protest ironyyyy

[noreast77]

Do you truely not believe that civlilized protest is possible? There is no iriony there unless you believe such foolishness, or are so cynical as to think all protest must be uncivilized. When I think protest, I think non violent resistance... apparently when you think protest you think smashing windows and molotov cocktails. Interesting...

[MegaUraniumMan]

@noreast77 us americans dont fail....AMERICA FAILS probobly because of our stupid ass government

[jakobkov]

holla back dude, ur totally right!

[burgerfred]

Commenters filling in blather about how they intend to "tear apart " a video without presenting any formal argument are just trolling to show rebuke. There is no point Noreast77, just your typical rant with any substantiated proof.

[burgerfred]

Excellent vid. Again you have summed up the true extent of the mass ignorance which is plaguing the populace. Why has America become so complacent? Why have people just decided that its best left to those in charge- who says the ones in charge will ever allow you to benefit?

Please America- for the sake of the next century in Human evolution- Please wake up!!!!

[fcukerhead]

lets just stereotype americans in a retarded youtube videos to try to motivate them to do what europe cant.

>_>

video fails

[noreast77]

YOU FAIL. There is no steroetyping here- these are facts. If you want to intellgently dispute a fact, please do. Otherwise refrain from commenting.

[fcukerhead]

80,000 people will also show up to a soccer game in europe, but dont show up to protest. Your point is null not because the fact is wrong but because you have selected a group and said that because they are different than yourself their actions should be accounted for differently.

Your entire argument in this movie is based on assumptions and therefore is not, can not be objective. You use these "facts" to showcase your own perspective instead of support an objective analysis of the situation.

[noreast77]

I didn't say they did. I am talking about the god blessed USA where the citizens are supposed to participate in protecting thier rights- not dirty Europe, idiot. At least make a comment that is relative.

[fcukerhead]

the war is not illegal because it has never been proven in the international court system

the war does cost alot, but internal problems are not objectively more important.

You comment incessantly on how people should spend their time because what this entire video boils down to is another liberal rant on how people should live their lives. You apperently believe that others should define their "freedom" and "liberty" by living as you would wish them too.

You are an elitist.

[fcukerhead]

Patriotism is: Having an opinion on how to change internal and international policy to better the welfare of yourself and your countrymen.

Patriotism is not: Presenting your own assumptions as fact and your opinion as correct without compromise.

[fcukerhead]

Im not ruling out the possiblity that there is room for improvement in the united states.Your video is a montage on how to live your life.

fascism - a tendency toward or actual exercise of strong autocratic or dictatorial control

In other words, mind your own fucking business.

[noreast77]

fascism? a montage on how to live your life? hardly. I ask questions- I did not tell anyone to do anything. You CHOSE TO WATCH THIS VIDEO. In other words, if you don't want to hear it "mind your own fucking business" and don't watch it.

[fcukerhead]

you placed the video to be viewed by everyone, its no longer your business. You ended your video with a ultimatum which is not a question.

You comment on patriotism, you did not question it.

You suggest how money should be spent, combined with the ultimatum, is dictatorial.

....video fails.

[noreast77]

why so much anger? you must be one of the cowards.

[fcukerhead]

if you want me to tear apart this video in the comments here i can. because this really is a terribly written, poorly supported argument, and would have been better delivered had you hired obama to read it without his teleprompter.

[noreast77]

Go ahead and tear away, because thus far all you've done is make stupid idiot comments.

[Xyno1100]

americans are a problem.

so is the iraq war.

but there are FAR bigger problems then human stupidity.

nerf death knights.

[LordWhorfinX]

its a damned good thing you are a minority in this twisted way of thinking. seriously, it's a good thing you don't live here.

[Linktheworld]

Us Americans do what is fun, and protesting is not fun. If I never go to a protest in my life, I am not going to wake up in a 3rd world country.

We choose fun over some people dying, we are selfish and aslong as we or someone we know are not the ones dying then we will still go to our football games.

You went through all this trouble just to prove Americans are selfish? You could have just asked me and I would have told you that.

We are selfish, so what are you going to do about it?

[foofighterownz]

well ive herd some things about obama renstating the draft

[RogueZealot10]

There is no such thing as an illegal war. You want something you take it by force and you either win or loose.

[football123993]

therers this thing called the geneva convention, look it up, there actually is such a thing as an illegal war

[FreshIceColdBeer]

The geneva convention doesn't have to be followed if a country doesn't want to and let's face...only western civilization follow it.

[noreast77]

"only western civilization follow the geneva convention"? When was that? Was it being followed at Abu Grieb? At Gitmo? What provisions of the Geneva Conventions allow for water boarding, electrocution and extraordinary rendition? Don't delude yourself. BTW it's "conventions" - i.e. declarations, not a meeting in Geneva.

[FreshIceColdBeer]

When one side doesn't fight according to the Geneva Conventions neither should the either side or do you only condem the few uncivilized actions of the USA and not the many uncivilized actions of terrorists?

[noreast77]

When the side is the USA, we should follow the Conventions- our great Constitution requires that we do so. Just because the other side is savages doesnt mean we need to be.

So yes, I condem the uncivilized actions of terrorists, and I condem the uncivilized actions of the USA- which the citizens of America are responsible for. P.S. Your English is atrocious.

[FreshIceColdBeer]

Where does it say in the Constitution how we should treat our enemy?

[noreast77]

Second paragraph of Article 6 of the Constitution says in summary all Treaties made ... under the Authority of the United States ... shall be the supreme Law of the Land i.e. we are to honor all treaties and accords (such as the Geneva Conventions) as law just as we honor the Constitution its self. Ever read the constitution? Pathetic

[FreshIceColdBeer]

Ahem, I thought you would keep this a civilized adult discussion but apparently I thought to much of you..if you wish to continue I would kindly ask you to debate with a higher mind set.

[noreast77]

LOL you mean "too much". Civilized - that is real joke coming from someone who thinks we should disregard the Constitution and sink as low as any terrorist who attacks America. That's the level of talent at Rutgers University, eh? No wonder our country is in bad shape, when a moral and intellectual dud like you is a product of higher learning.

[FreshIceColdBeer]

First of all English is not my first language and if you resort to personal insults it usually means youre loosing the arguement. You sir are a narrow minded individual and you think you have all the answers but you don't I have not insulted you and read and responded to all your points with an open mind. Now conduct yourself according to your age please.

[noreast77]

I've factually refuted each of your false assertions, I'm not losing anything.

[FreshIceColdBeer]

Now, this would be valid if we were facing a legitimate enemy who also followed the laws and treaty of the Geneva Convention. However they are not and that makes us not bound to fight them the same way as we otherwise would have.

[noreast77]

In other words you're a proponent of sinking to your foes level, no matter how low. Why don't we depoy some Americans to do some suicide bombings or hijack planes full of innocent Iranians and fly them into buildings? The Constitution, on the other hand, states that all men are created equal. All men, not all Americans. We extend all humans basic rights, and by doing so make the world a better place.

[FreshIceColdBeer]

When the Germans bombed the British...the British did it right back. That's how wars are fought. The British fought "the way they were supossed to" during the American revolution and lost because the Americans didn't fight like the European powers of the time. That's what is happening now. Someday you'll learn. You're just going through that rebellious college age.

[noreast77]

Now you're attempting to change the subject again instead of addressing your failures. You are again incorrectly equating tourture with how wars are fought. On has nothing to do with the other. America can win wars without trashing our Constirution and lowering ourselves with tourture. Someday you'll learn. You're just going through that rebellious infantile age.

[FreshIceColdBeer]

No, it has complete relevence to the subject and if you understand what I am saying then there is no point continuing.

"Man will believe what man wants to believe." -Julius Ceaser.

PS: I suggest you get your own comebacks instead of parroting my own retorts. :)

[noreast77]

I wasn't parroting, it's called ridicule- of your infantile attempt at insult. Youre the one in college, mall cop. Why don't you explain how your point is relevant, instead of being a coward and faking indignation to try to get yourself out of the corner you've painted yourself into?

[damatt08]

and maybe if people agree that while Iraq mave have been handled wrong, we shouldnt be just ditching?

maybe were not protesting because we DO agree?

[Hassad1Habaab]

here is the deal. americans dont give a fuck about you, your children, or your families. they see everything as a business venture, obsessed with making money. unless you attack their wallets, nothing you can do will bother them.

[busbybrit58]

Hello Im from the UK and I have countless arguments with americans online and iv got to the point where I really dont care. AMERICANS WATCHING THIS CAN UNDERSTAND WHY MANY PEOPLE DONT LIKE THEM. THIS IS MHY. MAYBE IF YOU LEARN ABOUT THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD AMERICA CAN BECOME A BETTER PLACE.

IM NOT SAYING BRITIAN IS BETTER BUT YOU DONT HAVE AND EMPIRE AND YOU NEVER WILL HAVE ONE WITH THIS ATTITUDE SO MY BEST WISHES GO OUT TO AMERICANS AND I HOPE THE FUTURES BRIGHTER.

[silverwolf122]

We protested enough to end the Vietnam war, but the thing is, if we leave Iraq a civil war will break out.

[ww7rocks]

Plus if we don't stop terrorism at the source then theres going to be another 9/11

[RetchidTheReal]

excellent video. well said, it's too bad no one cares enough to understand it.

[guitarist3600]

because we are so far removed from reality due to a clever and sinister media, that soothes the masses and tells half truths, and flat out lies. and the fact that we dont know what its like to have planes drop bombs on our heads and have the soldiers of foreign countries raping our moms and killing off all our family members leaves us feeling warm and snuggly at night.

[73yoohoo]

We care a lot about sports games, I wish we end this bogus war. People use to look up to us as a country.

[hurraquio]

well buddy thats what happens when an under educated man takes charge! I am furious aswell due to the rising gas, and milk prices. and the stupid choiced this government has made. I dont even vote anymore.

[someonewhocansee]

Excellent Video!!

[Temple420org]

Good video...interesting questions...I think the people of America are broke...the government didn't want them protesting the coming oil wars for the next few decades, so the government crashed that value of our dollar, so people will shut up and be worried about money...When you are worried about yourself and your survival it is tough to think of others...even like Job...you should.

[samej82]

Great Video!

I don't understand how we sit so idle.

If America cared, Ron Paul would be president.

[oddjob29]

te feburary 15 2003 protests were the largest in the history of the world. 10 million. i'm not one of you radical lefties but i am a liberal and overall i agree with most of what you're saying

[cwood4ever]

You are a fag you and know nothing of War!!!

[usmc070810]

hell yea this fag doesnt...you tell him bro

[noreast77]

What a mature, American thing to say. I feel sorry for you that you can't repond to something you disagree with intelligently by providing some evidence, but rather choose to hurl insults... maybe you'll grow up some day. Thanks for putting your ignorance on display for everyone here.

[samej82]

War is fought between governments... There's ways to bring those who have committed crimes to justice without plunging this entire country into chaos. If we as Americans gave up our freedom, our sons and daughters, and economy, and still see no result. Who really is winning the war. Not the American people, that's for sure.

[ocerg35]

Perhaps we know war is terrible but we know freedom comes at a high price.

[samej82]

You've given up your freedom. The patriot act silences you. Your right to vote has been taken away, given to computers with no papertrails and poor securities. Your government is spying on you, monitoring your phone calls, your internet, you bank account. You're not free.

[scrfce454]

whoever made this video should send it to the recycle bin because its a complete waste of time and hard drive space on there computer were fighting this war to abolish the taliban and alquida america will never be a third world country well take other little worthless countries natural recorces to support us anf alot of my relatives are war vetrans and i love them all dont say americans dont respect there vets

[noreast77]

The US went Afghanistan to get Osama- Americans forget so quickly the Taliban were given the option of turning him over- it only became important to "abolish the Taliban" because they would not give him up. Additionally, the US is already becoming a third world country- if you can't see that, your very fortunate (and don't know it) or just ignorant...

[holyhandgrenade105]

whats the point of protesting. It wont do jack shit.

[noreast77]

That is exactly what your overlords would like you to think. If everyone thinks that way, they win. Stop being a tool and go out... it is your way of thinking that will not do jack shit...

[noslack6r]

Have you ever considered the fact that you may be wrong? Maybe not completely wrong, but certainly not completely right? Yes, you can protest, but if people don't agree with everything your saying, it doesn't make them cowards. This is a polarizing issue, that is painfully obvious, but be smart not to antganize your fellow americans. This is just one issue out of many that we have to talk about.

[noreast77]

Of course, but action leads to possible success- no action leads to certain failure. Watch again- I never called anyone a coward for not "agreeing with everything I say".

[subzero253]

Protest before it's to late. The right to free speach is being confined by "no protest zones" and "free speech zones". This country is being transformed into a police state, While thousands of soldiers and civilians are being killed in an endless sectarian war. Not many people seem to care that much.

[Psycarne]

The protests here in England were the largest in our history. So there is not absolute apathy, the scale of the response was encouraging.

But protest alone will not put an end to the wars, there has to be political change, unionism, withdrawal of labour, direct action.

[beckdinho114]

american cowards screw u if u think we are cowards we could beat u guys sensles into A coma with r pinky and u would be like red card red card are street is 80000000 times more violent then yours!!!!! yours is probobaly pussy slap fights we would kill u dream on pussy soccer players !!!!!

[medebest]

most of de points he make r true. no matter u r for or against the war u hav 2 admit there isnt a lota politic and history interest in Americans esp. our teenagers

[rbbulldogs43]

people show up to sporting events cuz they are for entertainment you dumb fuck, you think everybody is just gonna wake up and say o i wanna go 2 a war protest 2day thatll be fun

[noreast77]

Thanks for putting your ignorance on display for the world. If you wake up one day to find yourself living in a police state, you may wish you had gone out to a protest. Protesting can be far more satisfying than "entertainment"- but since you've never been to one you don't have any clue what your talking about.

[debo310]

I went to an antiwar protest in Hollywood in March and it was reported that there were 5-6,000 people there in the papers (even a few celebrities). We marched in front of the CNN building and stop at Hollywood and Vine. (Cont)

[debo310]

When I came home, I turned on the TV to see the news coverage and there was no national coverage and the local tv stations only showed low angle shots of kids break dancing and the celebs. No high angle shots of the crowd. Or them reporting on how many people were there. But regardless, Americans need to do more if they are against the war. But this fall has so much "Must See TV."

[noreast77]

"assumes that the vast majority of Americans completely disapprove of the war" your argument is irrelevant; even if it were a minority, which it may or may not be, a minority among 300 million people is plenty of people to sustain significant protest- it almost always is a minority of a population which does so.

[dazman55]

Finally an American who talks sense

[newyorkgiants21]

there is nothing we can do.protesting wont change george bushs mind.itll lead to rioting and more destruction.until there is a president that cares about our people then we'll be a better country.

[noreast77]

That is total bullshit. That is what you would like to believe, because your favorites are all sports highlights. I'm sure there were plenty of people with that attitude when Hitler was taking power. Wake up, tool; there are people trying to save the world, and they need your help- if you fail to step up and help them, they will fail.

[newyorkgiants21]

i dont understand what is supposed to be bullshit and i dont know what sports highlights has to do with anything,but beleive me i do try and help the world because i care about the future.we cant do anything because the government doesnt let the people choose for the usa.lots of people are against this war for example,but does george w bush and a majority of congress give a shit,no because they dont care what we think.they choose for themselves.

[noreast77]

"i dont understand what is supposed to be bullshit" your attitude that "there is nothing we can do" that is just an excuse to continue to do nothing, that is what got us where we are today. Bush and congress don't have to care what you think because your sitting at home watching football highlights.

[MattUmassLowell]

relax guy you're not going to change the world.

[noreast77]

I already have, my short sighted friend... your comment in its self is evidence of that! Stay in school- perhaps some day you will understand how the world works.

[elperropatron]

TWO THUMBS UP!!!!!

[burgerfred]

Fighting with weapons isn't the only battle worth dying for. Media soldiers are fighting here too. I would like to see someone take on fox news. Media interprets what the politicians would like for you to do for them. I apologise for multiple comments but i wanted to air all my comments.

Please, if you are going to swear in your comments at me, then just remember - you lose. Debate - prove me wrong instead. Be a man/woman about it.

[burgerfred]

The video itself was very creative and highlights key areas of concern for the American people to be made aware of.

I will plug it as much as i can Noreast77. Have you got any more vids like this? You have talent... I loved the Korey Rowe stuff and i would like see more budding guys like yourselves do more stuff like it!

[burgerfred]

Troops are folk that didn't do so well in life. It's not an insult to them, just a fact. How many of them are lawyers or doctors or fully trained professionals working/fighting alongside them? How many of them have come from wealthy affluent families?

Come off it, to go to fight an offensive war is only to progress your greed.

Troops killing innocent people deserve to be abandoned. How ironic, that troop casualties have had their country turn their back on them.

[burgerfred]

I'm really scared to even think this but.... Vote? What's the point, they even control that now... I think that the only thing that will stop this government is if China or another Super state got involved and went to war against America. I'm not American, but I shudder to think of the Nuclear Wars that will be used to eliminate just one group.. AlQaeeda? No - Bush Administration!

[panther8317]

Hahaha alright buddy... So you're saying because I'm a Soldier in the US Army that I'm a coward? Sleep well tonight.

[noreast77]

I did not say or even suggest that "because you are a Soldier in the US Army you are a coward" YOU said that! I said you are a coward because you insult another American for speaking his mind, which is as un-American a thing as one can do. That is why you are a coward of the worst kind "buddy" so sleep well, COWARD!

[panther8317]

Hahahahaha... Cry me a river because this is really... moving. I like the picture of all the hands in the air it's... moving. I'm glad you think you know everything there is to know..... Cry me a river. God bless america and support our troops.

[noreast77]

Where did I say that I "know everything there is to know"? What's sad is that you can't see something you don't totally agree with and not say something completely stupid... insulting someone for practicing free speech. Your the coward, weep for yourself.

[pantherz2]

much respect to u noreast77

[MUNTVANGOUD]

@xxxAtogxxx

@ tjm54367891

@ mikedeger

You are a bunch of brainwashed fools.

This war is not for america nor for his people

It only serves the intrest for bush and his family and friends ( the whealty people of the usa )

[mikedeger]

I never said anything about this war being for America and I agree totally with you.

[MUNTVANGOUD]

Well, the same over here. Its not only an american thing.

[ununited2]

What?

[mikedeger]

impeachbush. org, go there, sign the petition and join us as we march through Washington on September 15th, 2007 and make our voices heard. It's time to take the power back!

[tjm54367891]

hey dumb ass you cant impeach bush with a petition the only way that can happen if the judicatory branch does that the hole video about people trying to show patreizem but not you are an exspample

[mikedeger]

Judging by your spelling I can see that you're and educated individual. The petition is only to show how many people want this myopic administration gone. I am well aware and fully understand the laws of impeachment. So, in the mean time shut the fuck up, make yourself useful, and get up off your ass and do something for your country. No wonder Washington doesn't take us seriously!

[tjm54367891]

dude serously get laid!!!! you cum sucking bastsard i do shit for america all the time, people think we can impeach bush (we the people by a petition so stop sucking on your mamas tity youfucking basterd

[mikedeger]

Oh, it seems that I have struck a nerve. It's okay, Corky was mentally challenged too, but he got a television show and did just fine. So there's hope for you yet my retarded friend! It's amazing that you even know how to work a computer with your incredibly creative cum references and sentences that make absolutely no sense. Anyway, let me take this opportunity to say thank you for lowering the IQ of our once great country you uneducated fool.

[mikedeger]

I feel very sorry for people like you. As a matter of fact, you've inspired me to donate to my town's local special education program.

[tjm54367891]

dude your the dumb you get on you tube to show how smart you are i just think you just spent too much time being shoved in to lockers an under wear wedge up ass I suggest next time your at the beach dont get so much sand in your pussy

[noreast77]

your both fucking fools, fighting like children while political operatives rob the country blind

[burgerfred]

ROFLMAO

You sir, have great wit.

But please. Keep it clean. Insults hurt more when they highlight failure and flaw. Obviously references to genitalia suggest his mind is capable of grasping concepts of sexual interaction, so he obviously must from at least the neolithic period. We should buy him a club so he can find himself a mate to keep himself occupied.

Avoid insulting the Mentally handicapped by comparing this neanderthal to them....

Thank you reading!

[andysterdam]

So, so true. The cowards are too bound to the false patriotism of 'supporting the troops' to step up against this outrage. That said, this is the beginning of the decline of the American empire. Remember Rome, cowards, and weep...
