    HORROR OF ALL HORRORS!

    All these poor people ever wanted was love and kindness and we invaded their country and hurt them and took their oil and yelled at them and stuff. These men just wanted to give us flowers and bunnies and christmas presents. and sing us little love songs. 9/11 was just a bunch of loving spiritual boys trying to show us a new way of landing airplanes on skyscrapers, just like the Germans wanted to do with the Hindenburg.

    Imagine the horror of having underpants on your head! OH MY GOD! We Americans don't deserve to Live! (Of course, they already think that, which is why they have underpants on their heads).

    I am embarrassed as an American that these people were treated this way. WTF is up with the underpants on the head and the sex toys? They should have been beaten senseless. Repeatedly. That's how these people should have been treated.

    -Erik Olson
