12 years ago at 11:00 amYou mean to say some Americans are better Americans than any of us. All our families were immigrants once too.

12 years ago at 11:52 amOnce in U.S. history an episode of Islamic terrorism was very quickly stopped. It happened in the Philippines about 1911, when Gen. John J. Pershing was in command of the garrison. There had been numerous Islamic terrorist attacks, so “Black Jack” told his boys to catch the perps and teach them a lesson.
Forced to dig their own graves, the terrorists were all tied to posts, execution style. The U.S. soldiers then brought in pigs and slaughtered them, rubbing their bullets in the blood and fat. Thus, the terrorists were terrorized; they saw that they would be contaminated with hogs’ blood. This would mean that they could not enter Heaven, even if they died as terrorist martyrs.
All but one was shot, their bodies dumped into the grave, and the hog guts dumped atop the bodies. The lone survivor was allowed to escape back to the terrorist camp and tell his brethren what happened to the others. This brought a stop to terrorism in the Philippines for the next 50 years.

12 years ago at 7:41 amIf we could pull that off, I’d watch it. I still think it would have been better if we pubically hung Osama from a tall oak tree and buried him in a casket full of pig innerds in the Mariana Trench. Can you imagine the crowd for that? I mean, we’re a civilized, responsible nation for the most part, but throwing in a public barbaric act every now and then to show we can be demented as shit couldn’t hurt.
12 years ago at 2:17 pmPoor guy,you can see his shock by his shaking hands, nonetheless true hero right here. God bless him.
12 years ago at 2:26 pmIt’s amazing. His body is telling him he needs to freak the fuck out and he’s speaking clearly and maintaining composure. That guy is tough as fuckin nails.

12 years ago at 4:54 pmSo he’s an immigrant, who lost both his sons, one in Iraq, was handing out American flags on Patriot Day at the Boston Marathon, and rushed into an IED explosion to save American lives, while wearing a cowboy hat, using what he learned as a red cross volunteer? How much more of an American patriot could this man possibly be? I hope someday I can be as American as him.
12 years ago at 4:58 pmThis guy is a real fuckin’ man right here. Here’s to him, his sons, and grandsons being knee deep in as much big tit tan American Blonde sloots as they please.
