@Johndoe by choice: first of all I agree with you about the foreign aspects of your post, I don't agree with your animosity but neither of those is what the pole is about.
when I say you're trying to control everything I mean that you started off trying to control my spelling etc...look I think you're a big enough man to be able to handle bad spelling and subpar punctuation I mean c'mon man if you can handle a gun you can handle some bad grammar.
First off, I never tried to control your spelling, just asked that you at least try to appear somewhat intelligent when speaking on topics that require intelligence to understand. Debating through text by using correct grammar and spelling adds more weight to your argument by giving you (on the surface) the appearance of at least being intelligent enough to understand what you are reading and writing, and if you don't believe me, ask any speech or english teacher in any high school or university in the country. Also, c'mon man if you can post on an internet forum you can handle some anonymous animosity (and btw, I was engaging in what now appears to be a waste of intelligent debate...I could have just called you an "enormous faggot", but that's just not enough animosity for me

)

I gotta ask you now what the hell is it with you and the youtube link rants, I never even brought up youtube and you're acting like you're launching a complaint at NBC, what are you a rival network or something like ABC haha dude if you don't like youtube then don't watch the links I refference, if you don't like youtube videos about music cause thats the kind I post then don't watch them and if you don't like me then don't watch them but really your obsessive youtube rants are the strangest form of distraction and detraction I've seen in a long time, I'm way more interested in your thoughts about the simple poll that I've left up to yourself to decipher. Now I'm saying it here right now in front of the whole world wide webernet.........your youtube links are the best......you win the youtube wars dude. can we get back to the topic
I don't give a shit about youtube, I merely figured you were calling me "controlling" because I would like to know what I'm about to watch before blindly clicking on a link that some stoner posted with no title. As it is now, I haven't even been to that thread or made any mention of it since then with the exception of my comments in this thread. Fuck youtube, anyway, place is a shithole - anyone with any self respect who wants to post quality video posts on Vimeo, anyway.

I draw no connection between unity and crime, they are two different issues, crime happens for many reasons outside of unity so no I don't agree with you that there can be no unity because of crime.

7.
(in literature and art) a relation of all the parts or elements of a work constituting a harmonious whole and producing a single general effect.
8.
one of the three principles of dramatic structure (the three unities) derived from Aristotelian aesthetics and formalized in the neoclassic canon in which a play is required to represent action as taking place in one day (unity of time), as occurring within one place (unity of place), and as having a single plot with a beginning, middle, and end (unity of action).
If you want to see an example of true unity, look at an ant or bee colony - they are all of one mind, they do not attack each other within their species, and they act together in defense of their species under one leader who truly has the species best interests (survival) in mind. There is no crime toward one another, only survival of the colony. Humans are nowhere near this, however, and likely never will be. Even though you obviously don't get it, violent crime toward other members of our species is a clear indicator of non-unity, as true unity would have us all working together for the betterment and survival of our species as a whole, of which a by-product would be lack of violent crime (and most other crime, for that matter) against other members of our species.
