This faction simply don't want to be under the wing of the MILFs.. They simply hate each other. and the government forgot this FACT.

I was talking about you. You could have been a mansion lord with lolis in maid costumes and cat ears if you were doling out guns to anyone who wants one.

So you mean that the MILF signed a treaty with the government to spite the MNLF?

At first I though 'has SH finally awakened to the allure of older women!?' then 'oh, probably just politics'.

Someday.

Actually that has been a running gag in SEA for years.

The current ARMM is due to the efforts of the MNLFs. THe MILF wanted something of their own. Most MNLF joined the AFP while some stayed as peaceful rebels (funny huh?). The MILF rebelled once and was near obliteration. She was jealous of ARMM.. the money and the corruption,... The MILF envied them. This current government is so stupid about history and signed a treaty to reform ARMM with help of MILF without having the other factions eg MNLF to join in. Disappointed that they are being snubbed by the government in favor of the MILF. Misuari, the former governor of ARMM ( corrupt and deposed after) declares independence that includes Basilan, Sulu, Tawi-Tawi and SABAH. He even want Zamboanga City part of it even knowing the BIG FUCK I mean FACT that Zamboanga City, my beloved city isn't a part of ARMM.... I just want them to die now!!!!!

He is one big ASS. He has a harem since his Muslim... but that is not the reason why I hate him... I hate him for he wants to be powerful warlord with gold and women around him.... To bad the Ampatuan was wiser but they're deposed too and under gping trial... for massacring 50 media people vbefore the elections.

Here's a fun one: Vladimir Putin challenges American exceptionalism in op-ed piece. The key quote:

"It is extremely dangerous to encourage people to see themselves as exceptional, whatever the motivation," he wrote.

The CNN article includes some fluff responses from Twitter. This one, from Sarah Rumpf (political consultant in Texas), sounded like a response from a fifth-grader:

"Hey Putin, next time you wanna write a letter to convince America about something, how about you skip saying we're not exceptional? #rude," tweeted Sarah Rumpf, a political consultant in Texas.

As an American, I completely agree with Putin. America has strengths over other countries, but too many Americans believe that America is the best place on Earth simply for being America (and further, that it always has been and always will be... just because it's America). It's an incredibly dangerous line of thinking. We're falling behind other countries in many metrics, yet people who blindly believe that their country is the best will outright dismiss these facts. It has created an attitude of complacency, an unwillingness to identify our failings and then work to make the country better. It's also simply embarrassing and small-minded, as it implies that other countries and groups of people are somehow inferior (another potentially dangerous line of thought).

It seems like most Americans who agree with Putin are doing so simply because they view it as a successful effort to spite Obama (and they dislike Obama). I hope the message causes more Americans to think about it beyond superficial politics.

^ I also hope you read between the lines as well. Look up the term "exceptionalism" in the context of speeches and the like. Watch the "West Wing" and think. Every single word and single phrase has been picked and debated carefully for a specific impact.

You know what that says to me? Put there intentionally. By some dipshit intern or employee in their 20s that graduated from college not too long ago, someone who doesn't have a good sense of morals (nor exceptional work ethic); who thought it'd be funny to put that on the website. Because 9/11 jokes are funny, right? No? Well a bunch of people in my generation somehow think so. I've seen plenty of 9/11 jokes over the years (from young Americans).

Hopefully they got fired.

Have you ever tried telling that to politicians and "professionals"?

Because from what I see, their way of doing work is a joke.

And it doesn't stop there. Pastors, club presidents, scholars, military officers all have that place as a joke. That photo there just nails the fact no matter how most people try to put forward a positive image, the results of their work says it all.

Might as well take the trip 100 floors down in your best suit.

Quite true for many in America (and damn, almost all our politicians are bad). But do you just say that for many in America, or do you also see a lot of this where you are from?

The verdict is good news in my book. Still hoping they won't commute the death sentence for those pieces of trash.

Life without parole is much better. What is worse that death?

Suffering with no chance of freedom and being forced to be a prisoner working in a mine.

My work experience tells me yes. Coming from the place where foreign talent and expats are the norm, sometimes I wonder if being in that suit in our hot climate fried their brains, or they never had any in the first place.

Smart ones are undoubtedly rare far and between.

you guy think too small.

Put the prisoner into a 5x5 box where a person can't lie down or standup. Put the box into a place with no light. They will only be given enough food to keep them alive but will always be hungry. When they die, buried them in it.

They can tried killing themselves but not enough room to hang and would have to either bang their head continuously against the wall or bite their own tongue.

That is a Life sentence worst then Death.

Get them boys to donate their cocks to those with phallic cancer since they can't control them.

Yeah, why the hell don't people control their daughters? It's only natural they be gangraped for being out with their boyfriends at night. The problem lies with the daughters.
