No actually I think the reason for the high Co² emissions could also be a different attitude of American politics and SOME people towards pollution. Remember that the numbers are per capita. Do you want to tell me that you are 3 times as industrialized as France and other European countries? .......right......
Do you think we would have stopped when we would have conquered Europe? NO! One day we would have come to you! It s good that you stopped it before it came so far but why do I need to be thankful to the CHILDREN of the CHILDREN of this generation? Call me ungrateful but "you" can "save" "someone s" ass as often as "you" want and I ll still be allowed to criticize your country.QWERTZUIOP wrote:
And we DO KNOW you were among the winners in WW2 stop bragging about it. After all you needed to save your own ass too stop thinking we all should be thankful. After all we haven t even been born back then right?

The problem is...the CO2 emissions affect the whole world, not just the USA.Erkut.hv wrote:

You know what, Erkut, this is not about coming up with interesting insults.
If you want to be insulted, just go outside and approach random people. I'm sure they'll oblige.
I'm not here do display raw anger, I'm not here for a flame contest. If you can't give an intelligent counter-argument, then I shall take that as evidence Americans are indeed stupid and deserve none of my time.
Here's me rebuttal. I don't believe it is in the best interests of the United States to let other countries dictate our environmental policies. So the issue of CO2 emissions, while something of concern, is an internal problem. I take issue with any nation or organization attempting to tell the United States how it is to act, or what we can or cannot do.
I'll get more in a bit, but I'm at work, so I am sneaking in posts.
P.S.: Flaming is easier to read in this quick of a span, and I don't have to think as much. That's why I like reading / starting flame wars. Got nothing against ya.

This post illustrates what I hate so much about america. The fact that America has such an insular mantality.paciopacio wrote:
Okay. Here it goes.
You non-Americans can go away. Go somewhere else. You don't like us-GO AWAY! We are Americans, whether you like us or not. We are American, wrong or right. You can talk about agreements between our countries and stuff like that. But, frankly, I don't give a shit.
If you're in America and you hate your own country-GO AWAY! You pieces of crap can live in another country that, in my opinion, sucks.
I will keep it simple. If you don't like Americans or America, stay where you're at. I'll meet you on the Battlefield even though my stats suck.

If you actually read a history book you'd know that it was the British who won the war. Holding out against continous German attacks and allowing the US to set up a base from which to conduct a coun ter-offenstive against Germany. Or, The Soviets won the war, tying up huge numbers of German troops, deep in the Eastern Front. So s.t.f.u. and go learn something before making such statements.-xDookiex- wrote:

You all need to get lives and stop hating America for no reason. We're not near you and its none of your concern what our country does. I had some netherland guy telling me America was like russia and we have poor people all over the streets.... then some kid told me saddam was a CIA agent and the US was using him to take over Iraq. I get a bunch of people telling me all this whacked out crap whenever i play with psychotic euros. Where the hell do you morons get your information?? Maybe you should visit the country before you start making up shit about it...

Correct me if I m wrong but I think that (googled a bit too) the US emits as much CO2 as China (fucking lot of people) and all the "third world" countries (arent they 3/4 of the world population?) combined. How could you claim that the 1st world countries and especially the USA were not really a problem?mcminty wrote:
The truth is that Americas signing of this wouldnt mean shit for reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the grand scheme of things. Its 3rd would countries that are the largest contributers to the problem, not the 1st world countries that have signed the agreement.

So I guess al Qaeda's master bomb maker and chemical weapons expert "had ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with anything aoutside their little village."Spark wrote:
Anyway, here's a little clue to why people might hate America:
Remember that little US bomb in Pakistan aimed at al-Qaeda leaders?
Well, now theres lots of big demonstrations across Pakistan.
Pro al-Qaeda.
Anti US.
Because of this little bomb that killed people who had ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with anything aoutside their little village.
Thanks. Thanks a fucking lot.
http://abcnews.go.com/WNT/Investigation … id=1517986Pakistani officials now believe that al Qaeda's master bomb maker and chemical weapons expert was one of the men killed in last week's U.S. missile attack in eastern Pakistan.

America (ns) are completly full of shit.
Case in point, tens of million of people have died in Africa within the last decade from poverty, deasiese, civil war and genocide. However we do nothing about it and invade Iraq. Why? There is no money in helping Africa.
We will do whatever the fuck we please because... we are Americans.
This includes invading your country if we just "think" you may be doing something bad. (EI: You have oil).
We are gluntonac, liars, and cheats. However what am I to do? Voting doesn't help, they will elect who they want. Move? To where? I hate planes, so across the pond is out. Canada.. well at least I would get health care.
So in closing, yea we do suck, I guess it is good to be on the winning team, if you do not care how you win.
I am sure I will get a flame for being "Non patriotic or Un American". However we do need a few people to hold the goverment accountable for there actions. They sure as hell do not.
Flame on.
Find any soldier coming back from Iraq and buy him one. I can only hope to have a fraction of the integrity those brave men and wemon have. Even when we all know the reason's they are fighting was frabricated. They still put there lives on the line everyday.

Not so. We had a MAJOR mission in Somalia, the purpose of which was to ensure that the needy got food. Unfortunately it turned into a military mission with real casualties and we cut and run (under the previous president - so please don't say this is a partisan issue). Now, I'm sure plenty of folks will say America sucks because we should have stuck it out for a noble cause, but if that is true, why didn't all of the nations which are so much better pick up where the US left off?Stealth42o wrote:

This is an incredible exaggeration. I don't particularly like the fact that we invaded Iraq...but other than that instance, what information leads you to this ridiculous statement? It is not a historical fact that we invade countries for shits and giggles. Most of the Military actions of the past 50 years have been worthwhile. The current one isn't particulary good but most Americans only know that in hindsight. It is a failure of the administration, not the people (who were lead astray by a misplaced trust in their government).Stealth42o wrote:

Additionally, some theorists UoGuelph PDF predict that even if the world's leading industrial nations agree to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions as mandated by the Kyoto Protocol, it is likely that there would be no net change in emissions worldwide. In fact, China, a non-Annex I country is the second largest greenhouse gas emitter in the world. If the industrialized countries cut their demand for fossil fuels to meet the emission reduction responsibilties, the law of supply and demand would tend to cause the world prices of coal, oil and gas to go down, making fuel use more affordable for poorer nations. These theorists predict increased fuel use (primarily coal) in the "non-Annex I" countries, tending to offset the reductions of the "Annex I" countries.
