Re: [Peckers_Pics] Hair Wars, PICS; Jan 19, 2011 - Special Edition




Dear Moderator(Jake)~I have read what you wrote in response to mine several times.  I no more attack "our neighbor" than how he presented his words.  Had nothing to do with his education, background or whatever.  I don't know him except on here.  No one knows me on here other than by name My song and dance was the fact a fish out of Canada's water and a fish out of United States Water will both stink the same in the sun. There are things in all countries that are good and beneficial.  Instead of pointing out and playing "Im better than you or my country is better than yours"  Offer suggestions or point out benefits that have been seen in their own countries workings etc. to learn from each other.  Not play something similar to gossip column talk about people in another countries government etc. true or not.  I don't live under any other countries laws or people, so I can't speak about them.  I can only learn about them, from them and ask questions.  Walk away with something from it.

I appreciate this group.  I do appreciate what you try to accomplish.  I love my country such as it is, good or bad this is all I got to work with, try to cause change within.  I stand behind President Obama as he is trying to break the walls that hold us all.   I am not the only one who felt this was more of an attack then a contribution to the group. However, unlike them I spoke up!  Which is what you permit within this group.  I have done no wrong and have no apologies.

My grandmother always said, that you can't pull a sliver out of a finger without
your glasses on. I find it quite interesting when someone from another country
can so easily have an opinion that they are NOT in the middle of and go on
assumptions. Put your glasses on friend and really look into your own country
and your own way of doing things. Palin, Obama etc. are USA issues, NOT
Canada's. You are involving yourself with things here with what is going in the
United States of America and you don't live here~if you do live here as you have
already said you are "Canadian" so you aren't a US citizen! So you really have
no need or concern to what happens here. Stick to what you know in your
country! I lived and went to school in your country~Quebec for over three years
and trust me I could have just as much to complain about, if not more. Every
country has its dramas etc. the United States of America is still one of the
best countries in the world to live in. I was allowed to travel with my father
when he was in the Army 37 years and commanded several military bases here in
the US as well as overseas. I seen and experienced many things.

In references to your "gun" issue and the Arizona occurrence. In the United
States it is the right unless you are a convicted felon in this country; if you
are of legal age, you are given the right to "Bear Arms" So according to you,
the United States of America government should take away that right!? Is that
what your country does!? The US government didn't make this kid do this. It
was NOT the gun's decision to kill these people and injure these people in
Arizona. The kid made the decision to do this. People kill people, not guns.
It is a sad situation and he will have to live with that choice. If I had my
way, he wouldn't have a trial. WIthout a doubt we know he did it, but as an
American citizen he has a right to trial. His day in court. We the tax payer
end up paying for. I can complain about that because I am given the right to
"Freedom of Speech"!

Daedalus Gregory~Native American and United States of America Citizen

Moderator: 1st of all Daedalus; this group is for people all over the world. And what goes on in America, effects the entire world. Gifford was a friend of the LGBY community and that community is International.

2nd, Almost every country studies american politics, history, etc. Thefine member you are refering to is from Canada (our neighbor). If Plain uses the word Blood Libel, that term does affect jews not only in the USA; but in the entire world. It is a false term used against jews. It is equated to the worst of terms possible. I would not like to see a anti-semetic wave started against jews in america that could spread elsewhere.

3nd, Canada has guns; but they use them peacefully.

4th, How dare you attack someone because they are from another country. One from another country has great incite. I was educated in the UK. I was born in the uSA. Should i not speak of the UK? what hole are you buried in that a foreigner is a predator, enemy of the USA? Because telling someone it is not your business is casting them as the enemy. WHen i took a trip to australia and the olympics in atlanta took place, everyone stood in horror when a bomb wnt off in atlanta. The whole world was worried, horrified and united with america. Just prior, a plane loaded with passengers that left JFK mysteriously exploded (TWA). The world was concerned. When 9/11 took place, the world was befind us; but your form of rhetoric, made the world our enemy. You must never act arrogant, supreme over anyone. We are 1 world, 1 planet. Day by day thew planet gets smaller. We share a international space station with russia and others. Gifford being shot may prevent her husband and astronaut from goign to the Intnl space station on the next space shuttle mission. Yes, the world is effected.

5th, what happens in canada is important to america. Canada has free health care as well as gay marriage. Canada stays ahead of the game and we always hope that what happens in canada will trackle down to the USA.

6th: Canada and USA have vast shared business's. Both the Canadian and American govts both bailed out GM.

7th, how often do i post intnl; articles? i think i do so often. Therefore, as we watch the world, the world watches us.

8th, You are a native american. How can you be closeminded when what happened in europe drove white people to the usa who took your land. wouldn'ty it have been nice if the american indians knew what was going on in europe and were prepared for the white man's invasion.

You own our canadian friend a big apology.

....jake
PS. sorry for typos, etc. it is late.

Bullying, intolerance, both political and racial ethnic sexual prefernce are
things that the United states MUST comes to terms with.
The gun laws are ridiculous!1
sarahPalin being a policalfavourite of the Republicans and the Right is
ridiculous!!
The United States is like the Roman Empire when it was falling apart!

I am a canadian and this is frightening.
We have our right wing prime minister who is a JOKE but the United states with
its president being the head of state even if is a Nixon or God forbid a Palin
is LIVING HORROR as they would hold to much power!1
In our system if our Prime Minister went as nuts as Sarah or other right wingers
he/she would have a check and balance system that forbids DICTATORS (as long as
we have a non=monetarily/ or power influenced or greedy Head of state which is
the Monarch, who is the first servant of the people, whereas the prime minister
is the first servant of the Head of State).
I hope canada never becomes a republic!!
The United States has proven many times that too much power in a Head of State's
hands can kill hundreds of thousands of people
(i.e. the useless and wasteful Viet Nam war!!>)

In other words: The United States leaders of all of the political degrees of
Republican and Democrat need to study Canada'sHuman Rights Bill and see what we
do and think.
Of course the jerk Stephen harper is trying to erode a lot of stuff.

For Heaven's Sake keep guns out of the pockets and purses of
students and faculty in Arizona's colleges and universities!!!!!
God Bless,
Sincerely,
Butch Blanc

Am I reading this correctly that he did NOT commit suicide?

Moderator: You are correct. we do not know as the info is from the father
and directly from the coronor's office. I do not know if the father
is in denial, or his death was caused by complications due to enlarged
heart. It is possible that bullying LEAD TO stress causing
complications that caused death. We just do not know
yet. They do not say what evidence of suicide was found.... And
the media did report suicide! There must be a reason such as a
letter, or evidence at the scene. ...jake

VanjaFranjoUdoviÄ�ić (Serbian Cyrillic: �'�°Ñš�°
�£�´�¾�²�¸Ñ‡�¸Ñ›),

(born September 12, 1982 in Belgrade, Serbia, SFR Yugoslavia) is a professional
Serbian water polo player.
- Since 2007, he's been playing defense for Italian club Pro Recco where he
arrived after playing two seasons for CircoloNauticoPosillipo from Naples. He
started his career in water polo club Partizan from Belgrade and then moved on
to VKJadran from HercegNovi.
- In June 2010, Pro Recco club leadership served Udovi�ić with an
ultimatum in an effort to force him to switch his national team allegiance and
start playing for the Italian national team. He refused, choosing to continue
playing for the Serbian national team. As a result, Pro Recco terminated his
contract. His decision to remain loyal to his country resulted in a wave of
positive reaction in the Serbian press, while Serbian Water Polo Association
president publicly thanked Udovi�ić for refusing to cave into the
Italian pressure.
- Following the 2010 European Championship that was held in Zagreb, the
representatives of local club HAVKMladost approached Udovi�ić about
joining their club. On 16 September 2010, he was unveiled as the new the club's
new acquisition on a one-year contract.
- With Serbian national team he has won gold on World Championship in 2009,
2005, European gold in 2003 and 2006, European gold for juniors in 2000 and
Olympic silver in 2004.
