I am glad this guy got fired.

In my opinion, the only thing worse then racist people, is the minorities that bitch and flip out at racist people.

1. Racists are dumb.
2. Getting bent out of shape because dumb people insult your ethnic background is more dumb.
3. Keeping racism alive because it gets under #2's skin is by far the most dumb thing I have ever seen.

If a bully is insulting you, the worst thing to do is to show him it hurts your feelings, he will end up doing it more.

The thing after the credits was a rip-off. It was a waste of my time. It was three shots. Kiera didn't even look 10 years older, at ALL. Probably because they said "This scene is so pointless, why should we redo her makeup?" Seriously, I waited though those massively long credits to see something I already knew?

Also, priests who worked on the bible added or altered things in it to try and make it work with their own beliefs. The bible is good, but probably only about 87% accurate as far as its original form, hence the problems you'll see in it.[/quote

..Hence most people still take the bible literally....

Not many people follow every single thing in the bible. Most christians are menu christians. They'll pick what they want to believe. If it doesn't work for them, they'll ignore it.

The old testament has some really stupid things.: Like not eating hooved animals. Did you know having a christmas tree is a sin? Being homosexual is too....Oh...most people know that one.

and racism isn't that common anymore from our side. I personally am friends with several people who are black, as are almost everyone I know.

(CBS 5) BERKELEY A Berkeley watchdog organization that tracks military spending said it uncovered a strange U.S. military proposal to create a hormone bomb that could purportedly turn enemy soldiers into homosexuals and make them more interested in sex than fighting.

Pentagon officials on Friday confirmed to CBS 5 that military leaders had considered, and then subsquently rejected, building the so-called "Gay Bomb."


Edward Hammond, of Berkeley's Sunshine Project, had used the Freedom of Information Act to obtain a copy of the proposal from the Air Force's Wright Laboratory in Dayton, Ohio.

As part of a military effort to develop non-lethal weapons, the proposal suggested, "One distasteful but completely non-lethal example would be strong aphrodisiacs, especially if the chemical also caused homosexual behavior."

The documents show the Air Force lab asked for $7.5 million to develop such a chemical weapon.

"The Ohio Air Force lab proposed that a bomb be developed that contained a chemical that would cause enemy soldiers to become gay, and to have their units break down because all their soldiers became irresistably attractive to one another," Hammond said after reviewing the documents.

"The notion was that a chemical that would probably be pleasant in the human body in low quantities could be identified, and by virtue of either breathing or having their skin exposed to this chemical, the notion was that soliders would become gay," explained Hammond.

The Pentagon told CBS 5 that the proposal was made by the Air Force in 1994.

"The Department of Defense is committed to identifying, researching and developing non-lethal weapons that will support our men and women in uniform," said a DOD spokesperson, who indicated that the "gay bomb" idea was quickly dismissed.

However, Hammond said the government records he obtained suggest the military gave the plan much stronger consideration than it has acknowledged.

"The truth of the matter is it would have never come to my attention if it was dismissed at the time it was proposed," he said. "In fact, the Pentagon has used it repeatedly and subsequently in an effort to promote non-lethal weapons, and in fact they submitted it to the highest scientific review body in the country for them to consider."

Military officials insisted Friday to CBS 5 that they are not currently working on any such idea and that the past plan was abandoned.

Gay community leaders in California said Friday that they found the notion of a "gay bomb" both offensive and almost laughable at the same time.

"Throughout history we have had so many brave men and women who are gay and lesbian serving the military with distinction," said Geoff Kors of Equality California. "So, it's just offensive that they think by turning people gay that the other military would be incapable of doing their job. And its absurd because there's so much medical data that shows that sexual orientation is immutable and cannot be changed."
