May 26, 2012 - You're age is irrelevant. No historian of value has ever claimed to "know plenty about history"... on the contrary, the most valuable minds among us are consistently HUMBLE in their self reflective musings. Stop kissing you're own arse."My country is better then yours"There aren't many things that illustrate the adolescence of humanity better than self-aggrandizing, group-associative, non-personally-achieved, intrinsically-circumstantially-conditioned claims of superiority.Grow up, sir.
Zeeboe Says:
May 26, 2012 - Right. You speak for all historians I take it, & wrote the "do's and don't's" rulebook of historians, huh? It's odd how if someone on here insults Americans, they get thumbs upped the ass, but if someone insults your kind, then you're ready to be mature.
Zeeboe Says:
May 26, 2012 - I post the way I post on here because this is the only way your kind can understand me. You're a bunch of closed-minded geeks, so that's how I'm going to talk to you. I'm not going to waste any time posting to you any other way because that's all you deserve. Your people have shown me no maturity, so I am not going to show you any. This whole thing started because your people insulted my country. Try to keep that in mind please.Fuck off, sir.

May 27, 2012 - Historians don't get to self appoint value to their own work/knowledge. You aren't a historian and you completely missed the point.My "kind" is human kind. I don't care what government "team" you associate yourself with. This whole "my team is better than your team" self perpetuating circle of bullshit is out of date, stupid and ultimately self destructive.
Zeeboe Says:
May 27, 2012 - And yet that way of thinking is what creates countries.Unless you've written a book on the do's and don'ts of what Historians can and cannot do, and it made billions, kindly fuck off and quit sucking your own dick.

May 27, 2012 - Man, you need better researchers... When you are rectifying previous errors, its not very smart doing it my introducing new errors..

May 27, 2012 - What do YOU know about tourism in Norway? You know why your circle of ppl arent talking about coming here?? Because you can`t afford it. I bet you never been outside the US. You are almost 30 you say? had me fooled... And what history do you know? US history? grats. Bet you never went to college/uni... am i right? That sucks.
Zeeboe Says:
May 27, 2012 - I can afford it. I would just whether go to Las Vegas. No, I didn't complete college, but a person doesn't need a degree to gain knowledge. Anyone can get a book & read it. Yes, American History is my favorite subject, & I'm proud of it. I can relate more to it, & I think we have the most unique history because the U.S.A. is a unique place. American Civil War history is my favorite era, followed by the American Revolution. The only non-U.S. war that interests me is The Soviet War in Afghanistan.
Zeeboe Says:
May 27, 2012 - To answer your question - Yes, I have traveled outside the U.S., & I am very happy when I get home. I listen to the song "Back in America" by Network everytime I get back home from another country, & the song gives me goosebumps. There are a lot of great countries out there, but we're the best. I consider myself to be very lucky that I was born in the best country on earth. I don't typically enjoying traveling outside the U.S. I prefer to support my country, & travel to other places in the U.S.
Zeeboe Says:
May 27, 2012 - I don't like being a "guest" in some foreign country, I don't like not knowing the area, I don't like being at the mercy of the natives, I don't like the weird languages, the weird accents, the weird customs, not having cash that isn't an American dollar, & I don't like having the label of "foreigner" put on me. And I don't need to risk running into some anti-American people because they are not worth the time I'd have to spend in a foreign prison for kicking their asses.
Zeeboe Says:
May 27, 2012 - Given the anti-American attitudes I see on the web, I figure, I am doing you a favor by not going to other countries, including yours. You hate me just as much as I hate you, so for the sake of peace, why don't you stay in your country, and I'll stay in mine. I'm VERY happy with my own language, my own slang words, my women, my customs, my movies, my music, my websites, my sports, my food, my history, & my accent. I would whether spend my *American dollars* on going to other American states.
Hollow Fame Says:
May 28, 2012 - The observation of emotions removed is correct. The Norwegian corrections system is cynical. We want law abiding citizens who have the skills to be good neighbours, parents and community members when they return to society from prison. But again, TYT fails to get their facts right - up till now, a lot of prisoners in Norway are in for minor offenses. As these people are submitted to alternative forms of corrections, the recidivism rate for prisoners in Norway will rise.

May 28, 2012 - @Zeeboe Well, arent you a violent one.
96ace96 Says:
May 28, 2012 - @Zeeboe You seam to forget that your human to as well as the rest of us, your not just American. And diplomacy does not fully exist. Its the goal thats true diplomacy. We just try to get there.

May 28, 2012 - Now see if everyone on Earth who think like you got there way, there wouldn't be anything left now would there!? There's always gonna be someone who hates someone, but your ignorant so you probably don't get that do you...
FoppasJutjuub Says:
May 29, 2012 - Just another ignorant american. Do some research before making statements like that. Why do you have such a need to brag about your country? Thats not very common amongst europeans. Is it some kind of complex?
Kakkelak Bolle Says:
May 29, 2012 - I'm Norwegian, and listen!!:Norway is a little country with little crimes, and cant be compared to USA.Norway does not need hard prison because we dont have much mafia and big gangs as you in USA has, and thats why we can have this prisons.But if USA would have prisons like we have in Norway, it would be many gang people and homeless people who had wanted to go to prison, so that would be a disasterCountry are different and can't have the same prisons!!
MartinUnited97 Says:
May 30, 2012 - Im Norwegian too, Listen!!!In norway, being poor means you cant afford social activities, like giving a gift in birthdays.If youre REALLY poor you will get money from the leaders of norway, so nobody is reallly poor, they can afford a house so they dont wish to go to prison since they alredy have what the prisons offers + freedom. In USA many people are HOMELESS so they would like to go to prison, but USA doesnt have them since that would be a complete waste.
