Did you notice one or two jets patrolling? And GW bridge?
Edit-oh yeah and the Empire State building light show and how the radio stations all shut off and played some patriotic music over the radio... I didn't even get into the city yet but I still knew the lecture was going on

The Super Bowl is a parade of propaganda, threat or no threat.

Jesus Christ.
Like there's even a 'threat' to begin with.
No one fucking cares.
The only people who would bomb anyone would be the FBI or the CIA.
It's like living in East Germany or Soviet Russia lately.

Sure! The dogetipbot will send you a pm to your inbox when the tip goes through. From there you can click the blue Accept and then you can enter your code. I still do not have a wallet.

I have some kind of ping about accepting dogecoin.
The universe meant it because the amount was 6.66 dogecoin.
0 moonpurr 2014-01-31
That was from another person on this thread 3 hrs ago. That's cool though. Just don't claim it and it defaults back to me to share with someone else.
0 archonemis 2014-01-31
It's all yours.
I'll think of it as a puppy-doge that came to see me, hung out, had a good time and then went back to its home.

You sound like someone who's never been out of the states.
3 archonemis 2014-01-31
And so I don't get to be upset at the things happening around me?
Shucks.
-1 BullshitUsername 2014-01-31
What? I was simply pointing out your half hearted complaint about the country you get to live in and all the freedoms you get to have relative to most of the rest of the world.
2 archonemis 2014-01-31
I was born here. It's no more my land than it is the land of the self-appointed rulers. The only difference is that I don't demand their money and compliance. I also don't have a militarized police state. If you think these things are fine then so be it. You and I simply have differing values.
2 irvinestrangler 2014-01-31
What relevance does relativity have in this conversation at all whatsoever?

Only mildly. And not enough to disallow me certain state-authorized privileges.
I can legally drive in this great free and beautiful land; stopping only for DHS check-points, of course.

Like what freedoms do you think are being restricted to you? Because I honestly dont see what the NSA is doing as bad so is there anything else?
2 archonemis 2014-01-31
My personal favorite is that they knowingly harbor known pedophiles.

I'm not going to support such an institution financially or otherwise.

Damn you English, you're my native language, why?
Foiled again, thank you.

"It's like living in East Germany or Soviet Russia lately."
Calm your tits. It's not even close to that.
5 archonemis 2014-01-31
You're right.
It's not like they spy on their own citizens, demand compliance with government programs or collude with big business or anything. I'm sorry; I forgot what freedom smells like.
2 juice_of_the_mango 2014-01-31
Um...yeah...it's pretty fucking close.

"Trains, buses and cars taking fans from New York and parts of New Jersey to the stadium and back again 'are going to be scanned, they're going to be checked, they're going to be swept,' he said."

Saw a black helicopter this morning :/

Can you elaborate?

It's all to keep the funding coming in.

Lol Well I was driving down from WestChester to school. and the whole time I've seen cops on the highways then I can the Westside Highway in the George Washington Bridge looks like it's look. And I see planes as low as the tip of the George Washington flying in circles and then I get reach around 48th. And the NYPD presence is extraordinary. It's probably because of the Super Bowl but I mean really? The stadium isn't even in Manhattan
