Why did you say .2€ and not .2$? Are you anti-American?

Hahaha!
That'll start a flame war!
I'm now 33yrs old and my political and religious views have changed and matured alot, during the last 5 years in paricluar. I am passionate about the things I believe and I think all people should have a well-thought-out political view and religious belief system. The trouble is that most people simply repeat meaningless media slogans and conspiracy theories. I used to do this too. I guess it's where you start when you first become aware of the way the world works...

Absolutely not! My heart really bleeds for the native Americans, put in reservations like second class citizens

I would be quite interested in hearing the opinions of the other moderators on this issue.

Translation: I'd like one of the moderators to support me.

Believe it or not, but not everyone sees the world in terms of who supports who and who does not. You have consistently tried to take this thread off-topic because you do not like the subject matter.
Having already spoken to some of the moderators on this subject I already know what their opinion of it is. I would simply like to hear what they have to say in relation to some of the points, which have been made in this thread so far. As surprising as it may be for you, I do not need others to support my point of view, I am quite capable of making my arguments on my own.
I should point out though, that I am highly doubtful of the moderators giving me any great deal of support on this issue. Hardly a case for calling for them to support me!

I believe it. I speak for me. Where have I attempted to go off-topic?

I know you are. You're quite political when you feel like it; you just don't like it when other people are.

Look back over your posts and you shall see where you have tried to threadjack.
Everyone is political, we all have opinions. I try my best to leave politics out of my participation on Esato, it is a mobile phone forum after all. It seems perfectly sensible to me that if one wishes to discuss such issues one does not go to a mobile phone forum.

I use to discuss politics quite heavily here at Esato until I realised what a complete waste of time doing so actually is. I would get into flame wars with people and there would be pettiness unbounded. Usually two narrow minded camps would form on each side determined to push their views upon the other, degenerating into ever more petty squabbling. It doesn't appear to have changed a great deal.
Having had first hand experience of this I can't say I like it one bit. Esato doesn't need that sort of behaviour at all. It would be great if we could have such debates without all the animosity and fighting, but that appears to be beyond us for some reason.
I come to Esato for mobile phones and fun. I also come to Esato to help people with their problems. I don't come to Esato for politics. I go to a political forum for that.

@absinthebri
Why are you creating an argument here? Scotsboy was making a very valid and respectful point. Don't undermine the thread with a stupid argument over nothing. The truth is, politics have become so embedded in everyone (a good thing) that when a contrary point to ones opinion is explicated it is bound to create unrest.
Plus, if you have a problem with scotsboy why not pm him? Its stupid posts that turn good forums in a place only fit for rubbish.
