26. OBVIOUSLY a country run by Western-infidel-hating batshit crazy Ayatollahs,

Sat Feb 22, 2014, 01:39 PM

Feb 2014

who deny the Holocaust and are just itching to nuke Israel is MUCH less dangerous than a country headed up by Barack Obama and Joe Biden, with John Kerry as Secretary of State. Who knows what evil designs this despicable triumverate have on the rest of the world?

Highlight:

What country do you believe is the most dangerous in the world? [View all] L0oniX Feb 2014 OP

Most dangerous? hughee99 Feb 2014 #1

Take your choise. To banksters Iceland is the most dangerous IMO. L0oniX Feb 2014 #2

My answers are different for the two questions. hughee99 Feb 2014 #4

Disagree... Adrahil Feb 2014 #7

Well considering the gun deaths here you could say USA for both. L0oniX Feb 2014 #12

Really, is the US the country with the MOST per capita gun deaths? hughee99 Feb 2014 #16

You wouldn't think that by all the gun death news posted on DU IMO. L0oniX Feb 2014 #18

The incarceration rate percentage is not about guns. proudretiredvet Feb 2014 #30

Just one of many stats. L0oniX Feb 2014 #35

Most gun deaths?? proudretiredvet Feb 2014 #42

Those supposed stats are just suggestions as to what perspective the danger may be coming from. L0oniX Feb 2014 #43

Not at all I do like honest and ethical discussion. proudretiredvet Feb 2014 #51

There are applicable facts for a location that are not facts for other locations. L0oniX Feb 2014 #55

Got it. proudretiredvet Feb 2014 #82

Obviously you are not worth responding too ...welcome to my ignore list. L0oniX Feb 2014 #88

How can there be any doubt? RC Feb 2014 #3

Weren't we told once upon a time that Marksists (from Freedonia) were the worst? L0oniX Feb 2014 #8

A proud member of the worst. RC Feb 2014 #14

No China option? Adrahil Feb 2014 #5

Subjective. Those living near a fracking site may have other opinions. L0oniX Feb 2014 #10

So Wal-mart dictates Chinese environmental law? Adrahil Feb 2014 #13

Consumers dictate IMO. L0oniX Feb 2014 #17

That's why regulations exist! Adrahil Feb 2014 #21

That's my choice Auggie Feb 2014 #27

or what about India? hfojvt Feb 2014 #57

Wow, what obvious flame bait....and you didn't even include China? MADem Feb 2014 #6

Sylvania is a horrible country Gman Feb 2014 #9

Just accidentally forget China? Rex Feb 2014 #20

Why? The protests are very limited seattledo Feb 2014 #67

You're wrong there... truebluegreen Feb 2014 #75

Wow, I did not know that and feel better now. Rex Feb 2014 #80

My pleasure. nt truebluegreen Feb 2014 #84

The weapons they don't have? seattledo Feb 2014 #81

Unable to answer as the question is too vague. Define "dangerous" first as there are too many uppityperson Feb 2014 #22

DU polls are limited. The DU complaint dept is on the 13th floor. L0oniX Feb 2014 #24

But there is lots of room in the message text area of a Poll's OP to define the terms. uppityperson Feb 2014 #25

But if all one wants to do is give the old wooden spoon a workout, who needs defined terms? MADem Feb 2014 #60

OBVIOUSLY a country run by Western-infidel-hating batshit crazy Ayatollahs, Nye Bevan Feb 2014 #26

Oh yeah go ahead and play favorites with Cananda! L0oniX Feb 2014 #65

toss up between USA and China... Deep13 Feb 2014 #34

So if corporations had their own country then that country would be the most dangerous. L0oniX Feb 2014 #40
