White culture? Sure, if by culture he's referring to the failure that is white suburbia in America. Row after row after row after row of houses that all look the same, filled with bored, uncreative white Christians watching reality television. What's fun? Shopping at Wal-Mart!!! That's America's "white culture".

Show me a more apt description of white culture in America, I'll drive down to South Carolina and steal one of my cousin's trailers. Maybe I'll get laid, who knows.

I'm gonna go listen to some Black Flag.

Yea no surprise. I think this has been going on for a lot longer than anyone is going to want to admit. One of the things that was hilarious was the use of affluent suburbia being a good thing. That they were shocked that these affluent suburban (code for "good" and "white") girls were doing this. HAHAHAHAHAH, boy was that rich. There is nothing to do in suburbia, it is incredibly boring for High school students. So what do you do? Have drinking parties, get high and have sex. I mean really! Also does anyone else pair this with abstinence only education?

I think the numbers will go down on their own. 1) Its biological for women to care more about mating and sexuality, they can get preggers. Girls will start paying attention. 2) In the state of the economy as it is, there will be less and less affluent teens who have a lot of free time on their hands. 3) The pushback against abstinence-only education, will help teach kids what they need to know. Knowledge is power. Really teach them about sex, and let them make their own minds.

I just came by to pin a little ribbon on you for an excellent comment. Thanks.

It happened at the same time we built suburbia, and everyone had to live in the same nuclear family, in the same style 3 bedroom house.

It stopped being acceptable to have a different lifestyle, because as a culture we became so obsessed with "owning" things, cars, houses. We no longer had jobs but had to have long term "careers"

Even though the nomadic life style has been natural to humans for thousands of years, we grouped homeless people with druggies, alcoholics, criminals, and mentally retarded.

and as with most oppressed minorities - as we marginalized and ostracized them - they became what we expected of them.

That's really tragic Not sure what the pilot was thinking hovering it around all those trees/suburbia junk.

I wonder if he died of a hospital infection..

I'm surprised it ended that way. It takes a special breed of psychopath to be a bow hunter.

So all the humans dating back several hundred to several thousands of years were all psychopaths?


I agree. There's about 10,000x the places you can hunt with a bow that you can't even fire a gun in. Up here at least, you can be within a few minutes walk of suburbia with a bow, you have to go miles with a gun.

James Howard Kunstler has an excellent audio series on suburbia and the impacts of the current energy crisis on American civilization at http://kunstlercast.com/

However, when it comes down to it, I simply don't trust "the consumer" to buy the right shit, any more than i trust "the voter" to make an intelligent decision about the next president.

You are very much correct here. I'm not big fan of the "american" dream aka a 3 bed 2 bath house in suburbia, 2 cars, a tv with living room set, a house full of knick knacks, and a fenced in backyard with a single decorative tree out front; but thats why I don't own a house, car, sofa, or tv.

However, that is a deficiency in philosophy rather than a deficiency in the market. We should address it by developing our philosophy, social structure, and culture--rather than trying to impose it via market controls.

As far as monopolies go, you might be surprised just who is advocating the regulation--it is almost never the consumer, and almost always the very big businesses you are talking about. I just added a video which talks about this.

there's nothing like getting 4 miles to the gallon in a hummer, driving alone through suburbia to the grocery store to pick up a carton of milk...

There's so many of us
There's so many of us
There's so many
There's so many of us
There's so many of us
There's so many [x2]

Let's have a war
So you can go and die!
Let's have a war!
We could all use the money!
Let's have a war!
We need the space!
Let's have a war!
Clean out this place!

It already started in the city!
Suburbia will be just as easy!

[Chorus]

Let's have a war!
Jack up the Dow Jones!
Let's have a war!
It can start in New Jersey!
Let's have a war!
Blame it on the middle-class!
Let's have a war!
We're like rats in a cage!

It already started in the city!
Suburbia will be just as easy!

[Chorus]

Let's have a war!
Sell the rights to the networks!
Let's have a war!
Let our wallets get fat like last time!
Let's have a war!
Give guns to the queers!
Let's have a war!
The enemy's within!

It already started in the city!
Suburbia will be just as easy!

[Chorus x2]
-Fear-Let's Have a War
Fear is the mind killer, remember??

I don't see why people are bitching about the terrain.
Go outside and walk for three hours in any direction. I doubt the landscape will change that much, either.

Right. Since when is reality an excuse for lack of creativity in an entertainment product? You think people play RPGs because they want to see their own boring life mirrored back to them? I don't play RPGs much, but I've got a feeling there aren't any set in suburbia where pretty much the same boring crap happens all the time, you have to make decisions about patio furniture, you never kill anybody, and the biggest event is when your pet dies. Oh wait. That's The Sims. But anyway, nobody bought this game to see repeated scenery.

Cops do more good than harm, atleast where I'm from.
Let's not kid ourselves and think there can be a working society without law enforcement, because people commiting crime usually don't do it on a whim but rather out of necessity. Also, there are in fact instances where the law is the only thing keeping certain elements in society from running rampant. I'm thinking mainly of organized crime, but there can of course be hundreds if not thousands of other examples.
In the end, anyone saying the police do more harm than good feels, to me, like they need to take a step back and actually look at what the police does do well instead of simply assuming the entire police force is bad because Joe Bully in wonderful suburbia confiscated their skateboards as kids.
