selves, built a=20
web site, and proceeded to poison themselves to death to hitch a ride=20
with aliens out on the Hale-Bopp comet.=20
    You shoot guns into the sky to celebrate victories over enemies, and pe=
ople are killed by the bullets=20
 raining down on them. We not only do this for New Year's Eve in some=20
cities, but we burn houses down, tear up streets, loot and sack our=20

  We put Braille on drive-up automatic teller machines. We think that a sim=
ple button on a=20
web site that says "Do not click if you're under 21" will do anything=20
but cause a person under 21 to click on it.=20
   We take a large chunk of=20
the island on which those buildings you destroyed sat and pretend that=20
it isn't a part of our country after all, let people fly in to our=20

  We sell hot dogs in packages of ten and the buns in packages of eight. We=
=20
can't even decide if pitchers should have to bat for themselves or=20
not. All those baseball fields we've got. none of them are even=20
remotely the same size.=20
    We gave millions of dollars to a guy that told=20
us that God was going to kill him if he didn't raise enough money.=20
When he didn't get enough money, he didn't die. So we gave him more=20
money in celebration of the fact that God didn't make him die.=20
`We've managed to keep the formulas for Coca-Cola and Kentucky Fried Chicke=

  And yet, with all this on the A-1 Psycho balance sheet, you still think=20
you're more nuts than us and that this won't result in your complete and=20
utter annihilation?=20
  One way or another, your way of life will be over,=20
period. Freedom's kind of a crazy, kooky, nutty thing when you look=20
really close at it and all the bizarre and loony things that can=20
result from it, but it's better than any other ideas anybody else has=20
come up with. It's been that way since 1776, and built to last no=20
matter how insanely we try to screw it up on a daily basis. We are=20
even so nuts and ruthless enough as a nation to start insanely tearing=20
at those of ourselves that even remotely resemble you in such=20
rancorous, deplorable, and angry ways that will make you wonder if=20
Allah has enough glue to piece enough of you back together for a flesh=20
paperweight in Paradise.=20
    We may not know where you are now, but when=20
we do I guarantee you that the majority of our high school children=20
will still have no idea where on the globe you are or where you=20
will end up being buried. But we will send them anyway, and we will=20
allow those of them that went into the armed services because they=20
didn't manage to get into college *still* to rain down Hell and fire on=20
your worthless hides.=20
    It will all come down on you, because we're nuts=20
enough to give all four of our branches of military services extremely=20
powerful and deadly aircraft even though only one of them is actually=20
