People blaming police brutality on all cops is like people blaming all black people because some are criminals. Why do we always have to group bad people with good people because they have a minor similarity?
Because they want someone to blame. 9/11 ? Blame the Muslims. High crime rate ? Blame the blacks. It always happens. So though those blamed aren't the ones at fault, people still want a group to point fingers at.
Guest, I have a suggestion Please be quiet, and just be mindful of your surroundings. It is Christmas Eve. It is a time for peace. Not a time for arguing. Even during a major war in history, the two sides called a cease-fire on the day of Christmas. They ate and played a version of "soccer", to be nice and happy for once. So why can't we do the same?
Also. Most people say it was football, but I tend to believe it was soccer, since it would have been easier to find something that looks like a soccer ball over a football.
What Americans call soccer is what the British call football, so it seems pretty forward to me.
And snubbing me like that has put you to the back of the heavenly queue, I'm afraid.
Uh, Jesus? I was referring to soccer, as if I had said "football", people would have assumed I meant pigskin oblong game. I meant soccer, which is why I said it the way I said it. Got a problem with that? Too bad.
...you do realise basically the whole of Europe call it football...because you play it with your feet. I can confirm, as a Brit- we call if football, it's basically identical to soccer, and it really irritates me how the game YOU call football includes holding the ball with your hands and not using your FEET.
It irrates me that YOU are getting on ME for something that was not MY fault. That wasn't even the whole point to my original post. Yet, you small minded people seem butthurt over something that they cannot control. We call it Soccer. You call it Football. Get the hell over it already. M'kay? I don't care if you are a Brit. We do things differently over here in America. That's one of the things America is good for. Doing their own thing, and getting away from what others do. Okay? So leave it alone.
It is Christmas Eve. I wanted a day without whining and complaining. Instead, we have our differences and people wish to try and turn them into flaws, and then downvote someone defending their country's decisions. I am done with the stupidity of the people here. This is bullshit.

That says otherwise.
Also, sorry I won't make it to your party tomorrow. Family plans, hope you understand.

At least I'm not damned?
Running.
Sticking it to the Brits.
There's a lot of reasons for the US to have a different name for it.
