I think people make too many parallels between Rome and the US. What about all the other empires throughout history? The British Empire, for example, that some twats in this country are still proud existed. The twats.

How about that?

The day Bush goes,the day the world becomes a better place:P

(totally off subject, but I have to say it)

If the dems had offered anyone the last 2 elections this wouldn't be an issue.

First round he was up against a power hungry hypocritical chicken little.

Second round he was up against flat-out liar. The epitomy of the sterotypical politician.

You want people like Bush to go? Pick better canidates in the primaries.

(Ok, back on topic)

But...gladiators are cool! I saw the movie, comon whouldn't you all want that sort of chaos?

The vast majority of schooling is spent teaching young minds what is heresy and not worth considering. The rest is spent scoffing at closed-minded individuals refusing to accept the new sciences of their time.

I think the biggest problem with the Kerry campaign was the baffling insistence on saying "Look! He's a war hero!" rather than "LOOK AT WHAT BUSH HAS DONE, YOU FOOLS!"

It is worrying that both of them were in Skull 'n' Bones. HOW many millions of people, and the two candidates were both in that society?

America is not going to fall like the Romans did. Sorry to all the America haters but it won't, we will just do what France did at the end of WWI and WWII. It may be 10 years, it may be 200, but it looks like that is how we are going to go down. It will go from a superpower to just a normal country.

Civil war? Very unlikely. Not going to happen unless things drastically change.

Besides... if there was a civil war that would hurt us all. And who knows who would replace the current government.

Yes I am. I'm moving to northern cali so I can play apocolypse the city for a few days when the next quake hits.

if you were pro-apocalypse you'd just kill yourself 'cause that would be the most realistic outcome of an apocalypse...

I'm against the death penalty so I'm against it.

Why are you against the death penalty? Would you rather the agressive, crime committing, murderous genes to remain in a much civilized human society or to wipe out these criminals and prevent these unwanted genes to be passed on?

You would rather these criminals be put in prison, with meals and accomodation provided for these bastards of society for the rest of their lives. Wasting the ever so hardworking tax payers money on building high security prisons, buying food and even uniform just to keep these useless bastards of society alive. What for? To reproduce like what humans enjoy and to have more kids with similar agressive genes? LOL. You cannot not be agressive if IT is in you. Embedded in your genes.

Therefore no death sentence results in a simple equation:

I MURDER/ COMMIT TREASON/ RAPE = REST OF LIFE TAKEN CARE BY OUR DEAREST TAX PAYERS

Why not just come out with a nice simple solution?

Simplest solution: Capital punishment.

Most entertaining solution yet simple solution: Capital punishment + some swords + some shields + some sandals. And there you have yourself another form of entertainment and another way people can place bets. (+revenue for the country) One word to describe: perfect.

It gives me great pleasure to see the stubborness of the incorrigible nonconformist get warmly acclaimed.

Since when became mental illness a genetic trait?

As I said earlier in this post, mentall illness is not genetic. That you become a mudrerer is not to be blamed upon your ancestors or chance. It's a combination of factors, some physical (high testosterone levels), some mental (mental illness, personality) and some environmental (having had a very bad youth). Also, people suffer more in prison than they do when you kill them, if punishment is your goal. If you kill them, they just have one shot of pain, and then it's all over. If they get a life sentence, they have their concious playing mental games with them all the time. Not to mention the guards who can be bitches. Also, those people can be of use to society by that 21st century thingy most people call rehab.

Death sentence:

I allegedly murder someone > I get killed > I turn out not to have murdered anybody > The state fucked up once again.

Are you nuts? Maybe this psychotic dictator's solution worked in the Roman Empire, but I don't think anyone other than people belonging in mental instutions would acutally be amused by this.
