"we're going to burn down the town" doesn't quite have the same meaning as it once did....

Re: Couple barred from US after tweet
they, the government, are idiots... but those that make such stupid statements about blowing stuff up and whatnot are even bigger idiots.
Nowadays you know, that when you look for bombmaking on the internet, you will get flagged... when you make threats, you will get flagged.. etc. etc.

Re: Couple barred from US after tweet
It doesn't matter what you say today.. some tard is going to swing it one way or another and if they have the power.. will ensure he or she views it the wrong way usually.

I could google anything and end up on the do not fly list if i'm not already on it for who knows what reasons.

It's not uncommon anymore for people that have never gotten a passport in their life to go to get one and find out they are already on the do not fly list.... there are thousands...

it's just stupid... What's the point of free speech anywhere.... Wtf are comedians to do?.... wonder how many of them have gotten there ass handed to them due to stating something as a joke or in a figurative way?

Re: Couple barred from US after tweet
why would you even go there?
why would you have to say something in a such figurative way?

Why does everything have to be said so explitively?
