  1. I think that a vast majority of Americans are indeed supporting our troops. Consider the members of the ONE extreme Baptist Church (I am stressing that it is just one, as many of my good friends are Baptist, and in no way support the views of these lunatics) that protests at the funerals of former American service men and women. These people are greatly hated by both Democrats and Republicans because they are not supporting our troops. You can be pro-war or anti-war and still be patriotic- but if you are anti-troops, then you are indeed unpatriotic and do not deserve to live in this great country.The great majority of Americans are supporting our troops, to varying levels of enthusiasm- if you actually dislike our troops, then you are viewed as unpatriotic, and justifiably so.
  2. Hello all-I am new here and attempting to gain enough posting credits to get a free website. This almost sounds too good to be true! I hope it's not!Speaking of too good to be true, the one thing that has anger me greatly over the last few weeks has been Nigerian-based web scams. I am a poor college student, and in an attempt to make some extra cash to pay some car bills, buy Christmas presents, and buy books, I waited in line for 34 hours at Target in the freezing cold to buy a Playstation3 with the intention of reselling it on ebay.I came home immediately and put my PS3 up for sale online for a 24 hour auction. It sold to a gentlemen who claimed he was living in the United States. When he won the item, he requested that I send the PS3 to his "grandson" in Nigeria. I thought that this was suspicious, so I asked my sister, who is a lot more ebay-savvy than myself. Apparently, Nigeria is a hot-bed for internet scams. She told me that many people steal credit cards and somehow con people into giving them money. I did not want to pass judgment immediately on the buyer of my item, but sure enough, the next day the buyer had five new feedback scores- all accusing him of conning them out of money!I can't believe that people can be callous enough to try to con people out of money like this. It really is disgusting. I know that there are going to be some good, honest buyers from Nigeria, but just to warn fellow ebayers ... look out for Nigerian (and all kinds of) scammers)!!! They took over ebay after the PS3 release. I wish that these people would be stopped- with all the technology we have today, law enforcement officials somewhere should be able to take them down.
