Hey deltaalpha21074 , instead of fuck the police, how about you quit breaking the law!!!

[hanleyfallsmn56245]

Fuck around, Fuck around, Pretty soon you won't BE around! Cops had no choice, he was threatening hostages, could have killed some innocent people. I love my guns but if you start waving them around in public BAD things can happen.

Wow, so, let me get this straight; I'm ignorant because I got one geographical fact wrong. No. I'm not going to continue replying to your idiotic assumptions. I seriously don't care whether or not you think I'm ignorant, or whether or not you are actually dumb enough to assume that from one error.

i do not get kick out of calling people names over the internet.

you called me a jackass and pathetic.

i called you ignorant.

Definition of ignorant: Destitute of knowledge; uninstructed or uninformed; untaught; unenlightened;A person untaught or uninformed.

And as far as i know you are all most of them, because the vikings never were in the netherlands they were in Scandinavia.

so Yes you Are ignorant.

[PyrotechnicAnarchy]

I'm not ignorant, jackass. It's pretty easy for you to say that over the internet, what with your anonymity and all; but you have absolutely nothing, NO way to tell whether I'm ignorant or not based on one comment you replied to. Admit it, you just get a kick out of calling people names on the internet; that's all you are doing here.

[kjevo]

Yes, you are ignorant.

i never said that you are ignorant because you live in the US, you think like that not me.

i Quote " that just shows how fucking ignorant SOME of the americans are.."

Alsoi live in the US myself so why would i think like that? You do, Not i.
