cobretti, please don't hate on Balder for having anti-american beliefs, because I'm even more strongly against America than any of the non-americans on this forum. The fact is that most other 1st world countries don't respect America, and it's not fair at all to denounce them as evil or commies or any of that sort of slander, especially over them disliking an action film. Please learn to be more respectful of un-american world views & political opinions. That is all.

MeleeMonk - Don't worry mate, I believe cobretti means no harm and only says that because he loves the troops and true american heroes like Stallone, Schwarzenegger and Van Damme, the same things that Balder hates. I bet Balder also hates other true american symbols like french fries, the Statue of Liberty and vacations on Tijuana, but it will all be forgiven once he watches Commando. (Just joking, ok? ...He'll only be forgiven if he likes Commando.)

Schwarzenegger is Austrian, Van Damme is Belgian, French Fries is Belgian, Statue of Liberty was given by the French and is made by Norwegian copper, and Tijuana is in Mexico.

Yeah, but I bet most Americans don't know that all of those are not American.

I knew all that since I was a kid and I didn't even grow up here. Except for the French Fries, I always thought they were French like the statute. Although I always thought Stallone was Italian. Maybe too many Al Pacino movies led me that way, by the way Al Pacino is not Italian either. At least I always knew Marlon Brando wasn't Italian. Hey at least kids here don't get so blatantly stolen by the government.

Children are being taken away if their parents abuse or neglect their children. What happened was that someone's kid was taken away when it wasn't appropriate for them to do so, and the news blee it up. It's not something that happens regularly, and it hasn't happened again as far as I know.

It sounded to me like it happens all the time and that even the most insignificant things are considered abuse or negligence. Well, at least that's how they made it sound. Can you elaborate why your news are biased? What for? Biased towards what?

Norwegian news made news of the fact that foreign news casters made such a big deal of it, they did not make the original news. Norway is strict when it comes to child abuse and neglect, but as far as I've seen, it has been rightly so. The limit where they take children is pretty high, and it takes time. It's not like you think.

Is Norwegian media biased agains Stallone and the troops because that’s the only explanation for the seething hatred Balder has for them I can come up with.
