Way to be cryptic! :p I'd lose that plane saying if I were you.
What point did I miss that I needed a plane earlier on in the thread?

If you don't get the airplane then you deserved the airplane.
Anyway as to the point you missed, you asked RavynousHunter if he actually agreed with Buttars, when he posted the Bible picture in a rare moment of wit. Read his post in a sarcastic tone and then consider why you got airplaned.

I can think of a hundred more demographics that are more harmful to the United States of America.
1. People who want to take away firearms from the citizens.
Like the rest of the more civilized world, I keep wondering over many US citizens' obsession with firearms. Ok, I acknowledge it's your constitutional right, which dates back to the era when the first American settlers were forced to protect themselves from each other and to supress the natives and claim their land. However, I am questioning what is the bigger threat to society : a person who rejects to own a firearm, or a person who is obsessed with firearms. The psychical stability, maturity of his/her judgment and ability of reasonable assesment of situation under stress of every person who likes to own a firearm, or even is obsessed with firearms in general, must be always thoroughly questioned, as he's bigger threat to life of fellow citizens than an unarmed person with no interest in firearms.
To put it short, this constitutional right has one big negative and that is : it serves as a good excuse for why so many JERKS in the country use firearms. Somebody would object with "But that's the magic of our freedom, to be JERK and own a firearm!" Aren't persons with such opinion dangerous to the society?

2. People who want to take away freedoms already written into law.
Got you there in most cases I can think of right now, things like Patriot Act are really ugly. But then every particular freedom is a topic of it's own.

3. People who spend their economic dollars without realizing where their money goes. If you shop at Walmart, guess what, your money is undoubtedly going to China. If you buy gas at 7-11, your money goes to Hugo Chavez.
Well, let's be blunt for a moment : this is how America's brightest wanted it to be. The US is where the economic globalization started. Until the problems started recently, most people believed everything in the modern capitalist contraption works great and in the long run we will only prosper, because that was part of the "American dream". You can't blame common people for not knowing where their money end, but you can support awareness. The most important question is, how many people are willing to sacrifice most of the comfort which the sick economic system provided them with for so long? How about you?
Some peoples' revolution would seriously clean things up, hehe... Oh noes, I have just supported your point number one. :erg:
Well in the end we all can come to mutual agreement that the most harmful people not only to the US but also to whole world are... Idiots. The problem is to distinguish them.

It's my roundabout way of telling someone they missed the point.
I've dealt gay jokes the likes of which you can't even fathom.
Stick to your weight class, kid.

I am pretty sure the amount of gun nuts is the same both in country which permits it's citizens to carry guns and in the country which
protects it's citizens.

I'm pretty sure there's a correlation between the prevalence and importance of firearms in a culture and the proportion of people who take that importance to extremes.
