Man Blows Brains Out at Britain's Got Talent Show

dear lord

After reading all the venom spewing responses of these two supposedly "power countries".....I am very glad that I am Canadian!!!!!

get along you stupid fucks.

Whether this happened or not is not the issue for me. What is the issue is that with the big movement here to stop bullying, somehow Simon Cowell thinks he and Pierce Moron are above the law by telling someone they are utterly useless AND even worse not accepting his apology. The guy tried and didn't do well. But is this a license for the rich and famous to drive him into a deep depression and kill himself? I think that all conestants should be screened as to their mental capacity for criticism AND I think judge, including that dipshit broad should be limited in how sarcastic and CRUEL their comments can be. AMEN.

The old UK vs US bashing going on here. The danger here is people all get tied up throwing mud at each other you will miss the fact that the world will move on shortly and bypass the US and the EU. Whilst the UK is on paper a better place to live (gun crime, murder, debt, quality of living, health etc are all higher marginally) the fact is that its was overtaken by the US many years ago as any sort of world power and I use that term loosely . Many factors made this happen the US via the Bretton Woods Agreement changed the exchange rate anchor from the Pound to the Dollar which allowed the US to print money on its reserves and effectively bankrupt the UK overnight. Trumans management of the Lend Lease at the end of the war was appalling as its was a deliberate attempt to financially crush the UK creating effectively a £1bn debt on top of the existing £1bn of war debt. The UK GDP at the time was £250m. No help was given to the UK to rebuild after the war so the costs spiraled.

Now to the US who should learn from thier previous own behavior. The US debt is massive and has large portions ( $5 Trillion) of it owned by China, Russia, OPec, Brazil, Japan, Mexico outside of US hands. Much of the US internal debt is owned by Pensions, Local and federal Govt and the largest element is owned by US Citizens about $14 Trillion. The only way the US can service the debt is through Quantitative Easing, foreign reserves and the selling of its debt.

If any of these countries changes the global exchange rate anchor which is a huge possibility as the US debt is so high it cannot service it anymore and therefore the value of its securities will be reduced. If this happens the US would meet a very similar, if not worse fate to the UK. No currency anchor, no quantitative easing, worthless treasury bonds will mean no ability to pay for imports like crude oil.
About 70% of all the US crude oil is imported mainly from OPEC, South America and Canada.
No crude oil no industry, no military, no power.
As with all "super" powers they come to an end and re-invent themselves as a shadow of their former selves. It will only be a matter of time for the US as much of the worlds industry and wealth is now flowing to Brazil, CEE, China and India and not bothering to use the US and the EU as manufacturing bases anymore. The power is shifting or has already done so.
I have to top my hat to Obama who is the only US president to see the change and act on it before its too late.

Not guna sit here n say shit about Americans because I'm not a child or jus simply a strange angry little person (even though some on here are making them selfs look ridicules) but seriously sort your life out and go get a job or some shit! Stop spending your life bitching about people you don't no, in a different fucking country for NO!! Reason (n I bet it ain't the first time you don't it either ay hahahaha) I swear I clicked 4 a video about a guy supposedly off-ing im self.....seen about 3 comments about the actual video :-/ weird ay

You Brits don't even have real sports. You got soccer girls play that in the US Men play football. We play baseball you play cricret. WTF is that shit? Pussies!!!!!!

Your actually accusing some one of stereotyping and being ignorant ect and see the way your talking about a country you have probably never been to, I will never understand people who comment on "people of a country" from crap you have seen on tv, I'm English...you don't no me sitting on your pc talking about "British people" pfft who the fuck do you think you are ohh wait they call you people trolls don't they and people like you wonder Why other people from other countries stereotype, you make your self look stupid and like a dick head to be honest!......grow up!

How did this comment section turn into one pitting America against the world?

I remember once someone asked me if I was "proud to be an American". This was sometime after Bush took office and sometime after 9/11 when some of the excesses of the war on terrorism were starting to take effect. I remember thinking for a minute. Before Bush and 9/11, I wouldn't have had to think about it at all. But even then, I was still proud to be American though not as proud as I used to be.

That was before Abu Ghraib and the financial collapse and the tea party and the do nothing congress, etc. etc. etc.

It wasn't long ago when the US was the leader of the world economically, militarily, and we were probably also acknowledged to be the leader of democracy. The world trusted us - that we had the power, intelligence, and that the American people would democratically do the right thing. America was just the leader - a bit arrogant and ignorant, but generally good people. If there HAD TO BE a world leader, I think we would have had the unanimous vote. It has since then become apparent that America is not nearly as powerful economically, democratically, or morally as we had been previously thought. We still have the military might, but the world no longer trusts us to do the right thing.

As another poster mentioned, the US has now been divided up into the "red states" and "blue states". The redstaters are the uneducated, bible thumping, gun toting, believers in unregulated capitalism and a government that is limited to protecting only those particular values. Whereas the bluestaters have differing beliefs, but are united in their belief that we cannot count on God and unfettered capitalism to solve all problems.

But for those non-Americans out there reading these posts, we're not all like these ignorant redstaters. Us bluestaters are just more quiet for now. The redstaters are just angry because all their policies based on faith in God and capitalism and denial of education and science was falling apart and Obama took over before their policies had a chance to "succeed" (or plunge us into an abyss we could never recover from).

I'm still proud of America's past. I'm on the fence about whether I'm proud of America today.

I'm American and you sir, are an idiot and stereotyping is ignorant---typical of the UK though, unfortunately. Every country has its share of morons...your country thrives on it. Are you really having an argument about who has more original television?! Gimme a break---your programming is horrible, the seasons are too short, the acting is worthless, and your country isn't very pretty---and if they are...they come here (also, the rich and talented flee your country and come to our beautiful land...that's how bad it sucks lol). You don't hear of people leaving America to go to the UK for a better life---and for good reason.

Britons..as an American I would like to apologize for the comments I have seen here. You see, America is really two countries now. One, the uneducated South, Midwest and "Bible Belt" that are (literally) praying for a return to the 50's, when gays and women "knew their place", education was WAY low on the list for THEM, and their world consists of a 40 mile radius around their trailer park.

PS
This event never happened

Rob you thick yank bastard if you really believe all that then you seriously need to sort your head out and learn some world history. Its close minded yank fucks like you that think america is so great and everything came from there that really get on my nerves. The UK used to rule over america, it was part of the British empire until you decided to take it for yourselves. And about money! the British pound is the highest rated currency in the world you are only richer because your country is a lot bigger than ours, now if the UK were the same size as america then it would be a different matter completely, also how do you have better health care? in america you have to have insurance to get treated in hospital and if you don't you are not treated, what sort of health care is that? Oh and about crushing the UK in less than a day you can't crush the Taliban in over 10 years so somehow I don't think that you can crush us in less than a day when compared to the Taliban the UK have a lot bigger and more trained army we have a navy (the best in the world) and an air force aswell so don't come with all that bullshit cause its not true. Oh and about inventing things here is a link to things ENGLISH people have invented and that's not including welsh, Scottish and Irish inventors http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_inventions_and_discoveries SO STFU.!!

SHUT THE FUCK UP BITCH !

Some of the American input on this video has been ridiculously juvenile and unneccasarily patriotic [as well as wrong a lot of the time].

TheDuke you dumb cunttt. "we should have let you all get dicked by the krauts. LOLOLOL!!! Loosers!!!!" <<<--- only a silly retarded brainwashed child that has no clue about how thier own country operates would make such a comment. I'll definately won't be getting wid da program you're on because you just don't have a clue about anything. You're the lowerclass like many others and the politians are the higher class so you may carry on working for your masters and making clueless ignorant comments because that is what they want, loosers to be calling other people loosers. THATS THE PROGRAM SON.
