Re: Bounty One Million

cool, I wonder where they learned to use bounty hunting?<br /> I dont agree with it at all but I wonder if they would actually pay off? seems there were about 12 writers or so on the cartoon project.<br /> christianity is also a peaceful religion, no christian would ever think to pray to god to kill another of gods children nor ever call for an assasination of said child of god.

The only problem would be collecting the Bounty. If they would pay to kill some one over a cartoon the they would not hestate to kill someone to keep from paying it.

Re: Bounty One Million

I am with ya bubbakat, man thats one house I would hate to try to walk away from with 1 million cash. <br /> whats sad is most likly some nut will try it.<br /> remember some years back when the US first put a dead or alive bounty on saddam and the idiots stole a car in indianna, robbed a guy of his guns and cash in PA and headed to FL where they planned to steal a boat and head to Iraq to capture saddam and collect the 5M reward.<br /> all I could do was laugh and think well at least they had a plan, a rumsfeldesque one but a plan nevertheless.

Re: Bounty One Million

reel poor<br /> do they want it and are we sure we want it and how long after the oil wells dry up do we stay?<br /> this country has been mostly democrtaic for severeal hundred years and we are still evolving. their culture is centuries older than ours. why do we think it will happen in a year or at all?<br />remember the democratically elected govt in the 30's in europe, the syrian one and the iranian one in the 50's and now the venezuelan one since the late 90's.<br /> and ofcouse we cant forget the democraticly elected govt of palistine last month.<br /> are we really really sure they wish a western style democracy and can we beat them with a stick until they submit to it ?
