Here we have more nib[crap] Americans sticking their noses into other peoples business!!! THAT'S WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS COUNTRY NOW!!!! Let me tell all of you Germans and Americans how things really are in this country; which by the way is headed for a train wreck! First of all, our teenagers here in the United States all do the same thing. That is why our juvenile court system is full. Just because our parents here in the U.S. are in complete denial does not mean that it does not happen here. Somethimes I wonder if that is not what this country was founded upon; I will explain that in a minute. Secondly, I love my right to bear arms. However, this RIGHT may be taken away soon, as they are making our constitution not worth the paper it is written on. To bear arms in the United states you must have a gun permit and have no criminal record. However, it seems as though law makers want all of us to give up our personal protection or "guns" , so that the only people that will have firearms are illegal immigrants and convicted felons. Our politicians here are brilliant aren't they? Third of all, lets talk about the crime rate, abortion rate, aids, etc. The United States wins the gold medal!! Fourth of all, lets get into school shootings. Hmmm, no one wants to talk about that do they? I wonder how that happens? Could it be because most Americans have to work so much that they don't even have time to raise their own children? Could it be because teenagers have all the stress that grown adults endure? Could it be that some children are treated differently in school? For instance, the child who comes from a family who is not wealthy, or the child who has a handicap, or is considered "different" in any way shape form or fashion. The children who were tormenting these kids in school were raised by parents who are in complete denial, who teach their children that money is everything, and defines who the person is, or who have parents who simply do not have the time to properly raise their children. Most U.S. parents teach their children how to cheat, lie, fraud, bribe etc. by the first grade. Let me explain, the comment that was posted saying that Germans don't care how their kids play sports. Well, at least they are not kissing their coaches arses trying to bribe them so that their children will automatically make the team. What does this teach our children. At least they are not giving huge bribes, or payoffs, oh I am so sorry I meant "Donations" to soroities, so that their children are the little "leaders" of the pack. Fifth of all, our children are not allowed to ride subways, trains, etc. unsupervised because it is not safe. We have so many child molesters, kidnappers, etc. in this country that it is pathetic. Our legal system is unjust! If a person gets commited of child molesting, or murder then they usually get a pretty stiff sentence; and they should. However, if another person who commits the same crime has money, or any kind of political pull, gets a little probation, or in most cases get a non guilty verdict because of their high priced attorneys etc. Let me give you some examples. What about O.J. simpson, amazingly he was found not guilty, but at the same time was forced to pay the family MONEY in a wrongful death suit. How does that work? There was an attorney found guilty by a jury, "guess he forgot to pay them off" for child molestation, and got a whopping six month probation sentence! Lets talk about capatialism. I think it is great! I think that the people who are successful worked hard and deserve to be rewarded. However, it has gone from capitalism to fraud, theft, and bribery. Politics demonstrates the ability to vote your self money. Look at all the lobbyist, etc. then you will know what I am talking about. Everybody gets a kick back. I hope after writing this article that I do not come up missing. Often times, " whistle blowers" who might intefere with ones power and money might not ever be seen or heard from again. I would also like to mention the fact that America has allowed so many "illlegal" immigrants into this country that it is just sickening. Before I am accused of discrimination " as people in the United States always like to scream any chance they get", I am not discriminating against anyone, I am merely stating facts. There has been tons of people from mexico flooding into the United States for years, and it was totally unregulated by our government. That does not say much anyway, because at this point in time I wonder if our government could even manage an ant farm! Here are some reasons why this should have been stopped. They come over here to this country and get jobs," which people over here loved because it was cheap foreign labor" of course this drove down wages, which drove down our standard of living. If that wasn't already enough, alot of them were using different names, claiming they were not working, so that they could be on welfare, medicade, unemployment, "though they were not even paying taxes" They were allowed to get home loans " even though they were not citizens" and when they defaulted on the loan, they would simply go back home, or use another alias to do the same thing over again. I personally witnessed a mexican family buy a foreclosed home. One family member got a loan for the max. amount of this home, and then rented it out. He did not pay the mortgage, so the home was foreclosed upon once again. The renter lost out on this deal and so did the bank. There were five people in that family. They all did the exact same thing with that one house five different times. The United States can not seem to figure out why things went awry. Which there is a lot more to it than that, but then we have the nerve to keep borrowing money from china! We are no longer the worlds power-house and we are turning to a socialist country. The culture here is radically changing, and I wonder what the outcome will be? In conclusion, AMERICA MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS " MAYBE THERE WOULD BE LESS WARS", CLEAN OUT YOUR OWN BACK YARD BEFORE YOU TRY TO INSULT GERMANS, AND WORRY ABOUT YOUR OWN COUNTRY!! THERE ARE PLENTY OF WORRIES HERE! QUIT BEING A BUNCH OF GOSSIPING, LAZY, BUSY BODIES, AND DO SOMETHING TO HELP YOURSELVES! P.S AND AT LEAST GERMANY DOESN'T HAVE THEIR SIX YEAR OLD DAUGTERS DRESS UP LIKE THEY ARE 22 YEARS OLD AND PUT ON A "SHOW", "IM SORRY THEY CALL THAT A PAGENT HERE" FOR EVERY PERVERT THAT IS KNOWN TO MAN KIND! GET A LIFE AMERICA!! Ohh yay!!!!! Here we have more nib[crap] Americans sticking their noses into other peoples business!!! THAT’S WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS COUNTRY NOW!!!! Let me tell all of you Germans and Americans how things really are in this country; which by the way is headed for a train wreck!

"Not only will kids get the opportunity to hear dirty words on the radio and see naughty body parts on regular television, but they are also reading detailed instruction on how to do things only married people should being doing in the Bravo magazine that they have been subscribing to since they turned 11." Shouldn't it be "should be doing"? ;) Kostas made a funny comment in view of the fact that the person commenting in German only two posts above his is actually American, not German. As for "Life of Brian", I think it's pretty obvious that not only can Germans not be expected to get all the puns (why did I just mistype this as "punks"?) lost in translation, but neither are they likely to get all those culture-specific jokes. I've got the same problem with the Simpsons: nevermind the overdubbed version, but even if I were to view the original and comprehend everything (which is hard to do for me as I'm not used to spoken English that much, and still don't know every piece of slang), lots of the gags are going to be lost on me because I'm still not intimately familiar with a lot of US pop culture. I'm not even sure I want to. ;) On the other hand, observing discussions among Americans discovering certain parts of European pop culture and getting hooked on them can be immensely amusing, really cute!

For every German murder there's quite a few more over here in America. Get off the Germanophobic horse; it's really boring. Hey Harry Hansen

You said that the germans can't find the naval and quoted Churchill. Now combining this: The middle between your throat and you feet are some interesting parts of you body which are often called the naughty body parts by the anglophones. Hope you get it this time.
