Go ahead, tell me to leave the country. Just because I do not agree with the militaristic actions condoned by an escaped mental patient that just happens to be our president does NOT mean I do not love the United States for all that it stands for. I have TREMENDOUS respect for the military (hey, it's not there fault Bush sux), but that doesn't mean I cannot voice my own opinions on this subject.
I have no problem with what you said, or with Johhny Depp. If people want to oppose the United States, I really don't give a damn. That's your agenda, and I'll respect that. What I don't like, and what many others don't like, is people who say what you said, but have absolutely no logical backing for it. People say, "Bush sux da cock" and "War for oil" seemingly because everyone else is. Referring to the United States as too agressive? How? Instead of spouting dumb "America = puppy" bullshit, why doesn't he give a logical conclusion. I'm not saying that's what you're doing at all, I'm just saying this is a reason why many anti-war protestors draw so much heat. I don't view Johhny Depp as any other person. What he says makes absolutely no difference to me, and is no more important.

I'm still going to see OUATIM.
