  • @NightShadowTN I was going to call you a bunch of names, but then I realized it wouldn't matter in your case. I have a deal for you. I believe you said these words, " hate this country and all that goes with it". I will buy you a one way ticket to any country which has no presense of US or UK. In other words you can go mate with a goat up in the mountains with your afgan buddies. And just in case no one else has said this to you, GO TO HELL, BITCH, AND GIVE MY REGARDS TO BIN LADEN!!
