    Good thing I didn't enlist... I would be fighting in this stupid war if I had. WMD my ass.

    I wonder what excuse will be used when they attack Venezuela for their oil... another Maine?

    And I am from Puerto Rico, which is technically part of the US and yes, that makes me a US citizen, and soldiers from my country have also died in this meaningless war, even people I held dear so don't give me shit that this war is not for the fucking all important oil.

    Let me get this clear and straight: neither communist or socialist. I'm not blindfolded by a flag, doing capitalist America's wishes under the excuse of patriotism and "God bless America".

    The same America that now kicks immigrants because it doesn't like hispanics and latinos.

    On topic: This lame excuse of a "war" against a blind religious nation who kills the "infidels" for not following their beliefs (as if they were any better) and considers them invaders will not end until Bush is out of the White House.

    I wonder how many of you have family and friends out there and if you do, aren't praying for their safe return when in the first place they should be home...

    This was my rant. You don't like it? You are not entitled to like it. Got you angry? So fuck you.

    This was posted the 4th of July, Independence day. If you get sarcasm.
    first of all if the europeans would of never come to this country, this great land would be still run by a bunch of indians runnin around in a peice of cloth shooting arrows at pigs........ so boohoo for them i couldn't give a rats ass about em.

    good thing you didn't enlist you sound like a coward and prolly when ur acting like a wuss you'd distract REAL soldiers and inevitably cause there demise

    I don't agree with bush, i think he's an ass not fit to rule a country and would of never been president with out his fathers name/backing. Yes presidents do love war.......... because its a big money making avenue, and bush jr like his father had to stir up shit and that's why i believe that the 9/11 was secretly planned by the US goverment, to put the congress in a state of emergency and give bush ultamite power (which i don't think he ever returned)

    Ur crying like that peanut sized island is supplying the majority of the soldiers who are fighting in the war........ get real i don't know what the population of puerto rico is but i doubt that the soldiers that come from there even make up 1% of the US's mitiary force. Also the soldiers from puerto rico signed up voluntarily just like every other grunt in the military and you need to accept that fact. Dying or not that's every soldiers duty.

    some of your beliefs are so rediculous i don't even know where to go from here.

    the oil feilds in iraq are owned by private families, yes part of the war has to do with the oil but ask yourself why. When we invade a country that doesn't give the us gov permission to just seize any property or assets they see fit, this isn't midevil times and bush is not our king, he's still governed by rules. However if sadam would not have been stoped (which im glad he's dead btw) he could have potentially shut off the oil supply to the usa which would have forced gas prices to sky rocket, its 3$ a gallon now and people are upset, immagin if gas was 13$ a gallon.........

    this doesn't apply to puerto ricans because your all still riding around on lammas, even if they had cars there you couldn't afford them anyways the closest you'd get to a car is if you tried to wash my window with a dirty rag as i was heading to your mommas house

    nuff said, love it or leave it bitch and i wouldn't be sorry to see you go

    also about the immigrants........ gimmie a break like its said in a great movie

    immigrants will do what a white man used to get a quarter for and what a ****** would get a dime, for a nickle

    meaning that there fucking up our economy you dumb fuckin asshole

    God... so many words. So little sense.

    I believe I am wasting my time since you don't even know how to write properly. I will not engage in a discussion with you since it can be clearly seen that your ass is running your bodily functions, even thought, perception and basic analysis... as you lack a brain to read and understand my statement clearly indicating that it is my opinion. Or that in the case you do not like it you can go and fuck yourself.

    Immigrants are doing the jobs that you would never do, you are only afraid that the population grows to be the majority.

    Bush? By rules? The same ones he followed when he did attack Iraq against the United Nation's recommendations? I will not get started since I cannot spare to lower myself to your level, and if your teachers even failed at teaching you how to write properly, your brain isn't developed enough to understand my words.

    About Puerto Rico, I thank God you are not from my island, and I have no idea where do you come from but it would be a shame, a real one that you were born in the United States since you are making an awful representation of your country.

    You even remind me of some politicians who are running that otherwise nice and beautiful country with very nice people.

    I would report your ignorance to a Moderator but I have the feeling that you alone will screw up your stay in these forums. So I will enjoy your stay. Until you piss off the wrong person.

    Loser.

    Yeah, now they wear suits and use missiles. Big dif.

    good thing you didn't enlist you sound like a coward and prolly when ur acting like a wuss you'd distract REAL soldiers and inevitably cause there demise
    Yes, yes yes yes. Base your assumptions of a person's character by how they sound on the internet. Now that's failure. And, from what I can gather, for you, soldiers are guys who run in head first, shoot, and possibly ask questions later. If so, then you got it all wrong.
    The 15th century called, it would like its mentality back.

    I don't agree with bush, i think he's an ass not fit to rule a country and would of never been president with out his fathers name/backing. Yes presidents do love war.......... because its a big money making avenue, and bush jr like his father had to stir up shit and that's why i believe that the 9/11 was secretly planned by the US goverment, to put the congress in a state of emergency and give bush ultamite power (which i don't think he ever returned)
    Money making avenue? How much money did your country lose in that war? Your deficit is approaching 9 trillion. I guess it's about time this "money avenue" shows how much it's worth. Unless you mean some people will get rich while the majority remains as it was or just about. In that case, presidents don't love war, but their friends and families sure do. I just wish I had a good enough memory to remember who sold what to who and that kind of shit.

    Ur crying like that peanut sized island is supplying the majority of the soldiers who are fighting in the war........ get real i don't know what the population of puerto rico is but i doubt that the soldiers that come from there even make up 1% of the US's mitiary force. Also the soldiers from puerto rico signed up voluntarily just like every other grunt in the military and you need to accept that fact. Dying or not that's every soldiers duty.
    Erm, it's about losing people who are close to you, not who sends more people where.

    some of your beliefs are so rediculous i don't even know where to go from here.
    This coming from the guy who thinks the government made 9/11.

    the oil feilds in iraq are owned by private families, yes part of the war has to do with the oil but ask yourself why. When we invade a country that doesn't give the us gov permission to just seize any property or assets they see fit, this isn't midevil times and bush is not our king, he's still governed by rules.
    LOL WUT

    However if sadam would not have been stoped (which im glad he's dead btw) he could have potentially shut off the oil supply to the usa which would have forced gas prices to sky rocket, its 3$ a gallon now and people are upset, immagin if gas was 13$ a gallon.........
    People would find other ways of going around, and major companies would invest more into finding alternate sources of energy. Or, rather, would develop the ones we already have.

    this doesn't apply to puerto ricans because your all still riding around on lammas, even if they had cars there you couldn't afford them anyways the closest you'd get to a car is if you tried to wash my window with a dirty rag as i was heading to your mommas house
    You're a winner.

    nuff said, love it or leave it bitch and i wouldn't be sorry to see you go
    Somehow, I get the feeling your tenure is the more precarious one.

    also about the immigrants........ gimmie a break like its said in a great movie

    immigrants will do what a white man used to get a quarter for and what a ****** would get a dime, for a nickle

    meaning that there fucking up our economy you dumb fuckin asshole
    Point being... white people get paid way too much? I agree.

    Please be so kind as to read our rules.

    Hopefully that will illuminate why you've been given warning points, and perhaps deter you from repeating these offenses. It would really be in your best interest to exercise some self-control next time around.

    Dude just chill out. All soldiers go through the same tough ass boot camp training and are tested thoroughly before the gov't gives them a gun and a paycheck and tells them to go shoot people not wearing our uniforms. Anyone who's a wuss or too puss-ish never make it past week one of boot camp.

    Also, if your talking about "REAL" Soldiers, there is no such thing. you must remember those rambo movies are only hollywood.

    After the solid thrashing there, I'll just point out that pigs aren't native to the US.

    Except for cops. Those are native to damn near everywhere.

    Wow this thread got jacked quick, I don't believe that the orginal poster intented for this. Everyone is entitle to their own opinions but slamming against others isn't right for it thats why its called an opinion. I myself will be enlisting not just to fight for the country but to better myself.

    Opinions, unless backed by valid, sound logic and/or evidence (depending on whether we're talking theoretical statements, empirical statements or both), are inherently worthless. So either people put up the backing for their assertions, or they take the lumps that come with throwing out unsupported claims of faith.

    That's how discussions work. You don't like it, don't get in them.

    Depending if such "logic" is flawed and only if evidence is being used partly to defend some part of the discussion and not to see both sides of the story. Half lie, half true doesn't make it a truth. Convenience lets us pick the best parts of any argument.

    I did not intend on this but it seems that my opinion got to some individuals.

    I could go posting point by point, with links and the "evidence" I would need to prove why, in my opinion this war will not end soon and why do I consider it to be a waste of time. But it will stray away from the original purpose of this thread.

    And when more than one person agrees with an opinion, it turns out to be a public opinion. Is this worthless, the opinion of those who compose our society, of the nations who have stated that this war is stupid? Damn...

    True, the soldiers enlisted and nobody did put a gun to their head, they did it because of the benefits, promises made to them by recruiters when they visit high schools and signed in hoping for a better life since for some of them this was the only way to ensure themselves a future. They did not expect to be involved in this mess. They did not expect to aim their rifle towards a kid with his mind messed up by a fundamentalist religious society and with an AK in hand. Or a bomb strapped to his body.

    And for those who talk such nonsense who say "what the hell do you know", talk to the soldiers if you know any outside of plastic figures in your home, real soldiers outside from what the media shows you and you will HEAR their discontent with this fucked up conflict. They will give you a very strong opinion of this war. They tend to call it fucking bullshit. While enjoying the little time they have with their families before they are called back into action. A real eye opener, since I have close friends who are serving in this war and have seen their friends shot down or blown up.

    I heard once that the strategy used in this war came from episodes of G.I. Joe, since the US are the good guys and the good guys always win. Sarcasm in any case, some of you need this sort of comments to be pointed out.

    I hope my friends make it back alive and in a piece.

    I will say no more in this topic. Somebody please put this back in line...

    Indigenous (ecology)
    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    (Redirected from Indigenous)
    Jump to: navigation, search
    Look up Indigenous in
    Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
    For other uses, see Indigenous (disambiguation).

    In ecology, an indigenous species is an organism which is native to a given region or ecosystem. Indigenous species contrast with introduced species. An introduced species, also known as a naturalized or exotic species, is an organism that is not indigenous to a given place, but has been transported there as a result of human activity.

    An indigenous species is not necessarily endemic. In biology and ecology, endemic means exclusively native to the biota of a specific place. An indigenous species may occur in more than one locale.

    The terms endemic and indigenous do not mean that an organism necessarily originated or evolved where it is found.
    Other species of wild horses were once indigenous to North America, as well, populating the continent before and during the last Ice Age. Approximately 10,000 years ago
    Prehistoric North-American Horses

    Horses lived in North America in prehistoric times; dying out at the end of the last ice age around 10-12,000 years ago, possibly due to climate change or the impact of newly-arrived human hunters.

    I am sorry, but you failed to note the extinction of those horse species native to the American continent. All horses brought since Columbus's arrival were introduced by humans to an ecosystem that had adapted to their absence for 10-12 millenia - naturalized species. Still, you get a silver star for effort and research.

    Um technicaly you fail. I proved horses were native to america, which they are. Dipshit didnt say WHICH speices of horse, he said that horses arent native.

    By your mind set, the Dodo is no longer a native animal of the Mauritius Islands, becuase its extinct.

    So give me my gold star.
