Only in america GAME

[gaddes]

Only in america is a man "Innocent until proven guilty." when he was still caught in the act on camera

Only in America is a man who pleaded guilty still required to go through a trial that lasts several months. (When it only took him a few seconds to confess to his own crime)

[Gribble]

Only in America are people given due process and a fair chance.

Much as I'd like to see some folks strung up by the gonards and beat like human pinatas, our legal system's done some good. It ain't perfect, but hell, you name one that's better.

Any particular case prompt you to post this?

nope it's just a joke

[vashti]

You don't go to trial if you plead guilty. You *DO* have to appear before the judge, but the purpose of pleading guilty is to avoid the trial.

I want to be a lieutenant in Gribble's Army.

Them gas chambers did the trick.

[Tiay]

only in america have I seen Extra gum in flat-form and Orbit gum as those little pillow shaped things. IT'S THE OTHER WAY AROUND! why in gods name did they change that? just to MESS with my head.

See Germany in WWII. Then once you've read that, gotten through all the nazi bullshit, see modern Germany and current government.

[Tiay]

I'm afraid it doesn't matter how well Germany conducts itself- everyone will still think back. And the bastard wasn't even German.
I'm genetically 100% German. so there.

makes me think of that comedy video where one of Hitler's speeches was dubbed with the story of someone getting tricked into a leasing-contract with a car dealership. the comedian had to retract it of course, but it was already out. I'd link the youtube video, but it is really only funny if you speak FLUENT german, otherwise it is just scary as hell.

I am very much German, also. My grandparents came from Germany. Actually, it was just my grandfather's side. He and his parents moved from Germany, and he was put in a foster home. He doesn't remember much about his mother, other than she was a dutchess. I have no idea what a dutchess is. (he was put in the foster home at a young age)

I can also speak very fluently, I occasionally watch Nightwash which is a German standup comedy show. And, well, I have friends who are from a part in Germany where a dialect is spoken, so a few of my words are different, as I speak a mix of a dialect... probably not the best thing for a college studying Germany

Please pm me the youtube links, that'd be hilarious!

[Tiay]

well, okay, but there are certain expressions in there that you might not get, that make it a LOT funnier- my family was literally debilitated with laughter while watching it.

Germany.

____________

How is the German system better than ours? They suppress freedom of speech there and do not allow video games with blood in them.




To add to the jokes tho, only in American can you get a idiot like Bush elected by the people, both dead and alive.

[Steve2004]

only in america do younger generations pretend to hate Bush just because their friends are doing it.

[Illusional]

no, i think that it's quite safe to say a lot of us younger generation hates the bush. don't people shave anymore??
