Pretty controversial Andy Rooney quote

[solid]

what is really annoying is how nz'ers, say asians cant drive, which is true to a point where every single accident i have seen in the news which has killed the people inside the car, have been white,

but i agree with these taxi drivers from other countries, who dont even know the roads.... (if i want to take a taxi, i want to get there in the quickest possible time and pay the least amount of money...not get lost somewhere and the driver pull out a map, and watch the meter keep tick tick ticking.....)

Geuss ill throw in my 2cents. First i dont know y some people are getting offended and saying things that arent neccesary like "stfu" to eachother. Theres a little something here in America called freedom of speech, correct me at anytime if im wrong, ya go ahead and voice ur opinion but i dont think its right to bash others for theirs. If someone says something that u dont agree with or dont like u can either a: dont read it, or b: tell them how u feel about it but in a decent way. And i feel that the original post is absolutely correct so if u dont like dont read it. It drives me out of my mind when i try to get a cheesburger and have to tell them no lettuce 6 times and they still dont understand me. And what happens when i get home ive got lettuce on my damn cheeseburger. Now if im going to a little family owned mexican resturant and theres a little miscommunication ai understand that. But sometimes its just ridiculous. Im not racist at all i just dont think its right when a white cop pulls over a black man/woman and they atomatically think its because theyre black when really they were speeding or had expired tags. Then they try to take the city to court. F**cking hilarious!

I agree will all that was posted in the first post. Here in kansas, the gov wants to give driving licenses to illegal immigrants..... Now correct me if I am wrong, but if I sit day in and day out at work, watch the illegals roll in because they are being deported.... why are you going to waste my tax money and give them licenses. Whats the damn purpose of the INS then. Oh sorry mr. illegal, I know your not supposed to be here right now, but here take this license, go get in a accident, seriously hurt or kill someone, and since your illegal, you can't get insurance, and really screw the person you hit. It makes no sense to me.

[supratuner]

I agree %100 with all of that. especially on Bill Gates, and on people not being born here getting tax cuts... etc

Thats ridiculous. Giving drivers licenses to illegals is like giving a car to a drunk....an accident waiting to happen. I've heard/read about so many people having accidents and even getting killed b/c illegals were the cause of the accident. Stupid ass govt. stop giving things out so freely.

hmm he has a point....

Okay, I gotta jump in on thins one: This is America. The land of the Free. The home of the Brave. We built this country on freedom; this country stands on freedom. I value it so much that I joined the United States Air Force to do my part. I didn't just joined for the benefits. Everybody is entitled to an opinion, but don't sit there call somebody 'Nigger' because you feel the time is right. Why blacks say it to one another? Maybe because we get called it enough as it is and me might as well not give some racist the satisfaction. Please, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson do not speak for all black people! In my opinion, I think those are just some money hungry bastards out to glorify themselves. They're not helping anybody. I hope nobody thinks that racism is dead- it's here and it's everywhere. I've been pulled over 13 times and ticketed once. I was speeding once, okay, fine. But why did the sheriff pull me over for doing 38 in 40? Because I looked 'suspicous' in mid afternoon traffic. While riding with my brother, he had a neon license plate frame and got stopped for it. Okay, a fix it tickey, right? NO. How about a felony stop, me and my brother pulled out of the car at gunpoint, slammed on the ground and handcuffed while the cops search and find nothing. Racism is here, sometimes it's hidden, sometimes not. As a black guy serving in the military (it's bull when people ask why I serve a country that allegedly hates me. The USA doesn't hate anybody except for those who threaten freedom.) I want to slap people when they tell me that the USA 'oppresses' me and my people. Altohugh I have descriminated against, I know that is one person in a world of 6 billion that has a different opinion than me. I don't think I deserve a special parking space. As long as I can get one and there's no signs that say 'whites only' and 'coloreds only' I don't see a problem. Mr. Rooney is just stating his opinion; he's entitled to that. Just because I don't agree with it doesn't mean I'm a nigger. All it means is that i have a different opinion. And that's what the U.S. is about; and that is why I defend it.
