wasnt America once known as land of the free?

[c312]

Still is.

[Jin-Roh]

anything is free as long as you have the power.


now that i think about it, that's very true. people no longer are proactive and try to take advantage of anything. oOo:

[c312]

what if Apocalypse comes and takes over the world like in XMEN?

What ifs...

[elstatec]

but terrorist attacks have happened, whilst an "Apocalypse comes and takes over the world like in XMEN?" stupid:


again, another terrible analogy.

[c312]

That obviously wasn't an analogy, it was sarcasm. It meant that we can say what if....but it doesn't matter if it doesn't happen. I do not think that martial law on the scale that ninty mentions is plausible in the United States.
