Re: David Icke
timecycle,
I have a difficult time knowing if/when you are replying to something I wrote. It seems like you put my quote AFTER the part you are writing in response to it???? That is odd. Perhaps you can take a few minutes and learn how to use the "quote" feature on the forum? It is not all that difficult and it will clarify things immensely. For example:
Now I respond to this: It seems either you glossed-over, or purposefully ignored the point I was making. So let me state it again:
Your passport is not at all your property. It is the property of your government. As such, they are free to do with it what they wish (chip it or not). Just as you are free to leave your country and live elsewhere if you do not like their passport rules, or simply not carry a passport if you do not wish to travel to other countries. You seem to only be considering the possible miuses of the passport, and not at all considering EXACTLY why it is we have passports (and a major part of why we have them is to keep you safe in your country, and in your home, safe from criminal elements that will not like your country, or mine, no matter what they may or may not think of us). I would encourage you to embrace the totality of life in this real world, and not merely live in a partial fantasy world.
And "Hitler worship"? Oh please. I do not think you would even like living in your very own country some 800 or so years ago. If you think your government is oppressive NOW, just imagine what middle and lower class people had to put up with in medievel times?!?! Seriously, I am even wondering if you, with your lopsided view of the free societies we live in, are actually receiving some form of government dole while you surf the conspiracy sites? That would be ironic, but not unheard of. Because actually, in the USA, it is quite often the people who are already living off the public larder that are the ones who turn up to protests about both how "the government is not doing enough to help us" and/or "there is a giant government conspiracy to keep us down."
To get a balanced view of things, it might actually be good for you to go live in a place like Pakistan for even as little as 6 months. Then come home to the UK and tell us how bad of a place it is.
