The Patriot Act was the worst that ever happen to your Country...against democracy...against human rights...a lot of your soldiers here in Germany told me one thing...i want to stay here...why? This is a Country where i can say what i think!!!

Are you kidding?? Why do you think they're sent to this school in the first place? Have you ever heard of the bay of pigs? Do you know anything about it?? Do you have ANY idea what types of stuff our CIA is behind?? We don't train people in public schools how to stage coups, and murder people, and rule with an iron fist as a dictator. If you're genuinely curious about learning the truth, watch these videos:

You don't understand. There's a difference between threats to national, economic interests, versus going out of our way to pave over the world to build our economic empire.

[technormality]

When our countries national interests are threatened we have only a few options, do nothing and pacify, attempt to negotiate, or fight against it. Diplomacy should be attempted in most cases first, although there are situations where the last option must come first.. Unless you are completely against violence. In that case we have to get rid of ALL military and law enforcement agencies.. Survival of the fittest, an the pacifists usually lose without divine intervention..

[technormality]

Ok, let's take your "economic interests" argument. First you have to PROVE that the curriculum they teach is anti-democracy, dictatorial etc., ACTUAL PROOF.. Do you have proof beyond the fact that many of the graduates, who primarily grew up in a Non-democratic environment, were evil / bad and simply used their new knowledge for bad deeds?  How many people that come out of our and other countries public schools commit terrible crimes? Should we close the public schools too?

[Gangularis]

Did I ever say we live in a Democracy? No, I just suggested that you're the type that falls for that old carrot on a stick to get people into wars. You really don't understand what the people trained there do, and more importantly, WHY they do it. It's not to defend our country, and it's NOT to stamp out communism. Every corrupt leader/puppet govt. we put into power is evil, and cruel to the people, but we don't care about that, as long as he forces the people to serve our economic interests.

[technormality]

First, we don't live in a Democracy, and mob rule will never work.. Second, anyone who believes peace throughout this world will EVER exist they are delusional at best.. There have been and always will be issues people are willing fight over. Necessary violence must exist to counter irrational violence.

[Gangularis]

You're an idiot. Do you even know what the School of the Americas does? I can assure you, the type of "nation building" they're involved in does not involve creating free democracies.

[technormality]

Why is it that virtually everyone pushing to close this school are Communist sympathizers? Almost every "Star" in support of this cause have been to Cuba and other communist countries quite frequently in the recentl past? Could there be a movement of "Change" coming soon? Something smells funny here..
