Gitmo

short for Guantanamo Bay

scary place where suspected "enemy combatants" are taken and then interrogated in order to determine whether they are terrorists or not.

this area is lawless; any fucking thing can happen. do the geneva conventions apply here? who knows?

a large percentage of detainees held are released much much later and labelled to be completely innocent. seems like they take just anybody.

for some reason, the clothes nick berg was wearing when he was decapitated are the uniforms from gitmo.

Mission Accomplished

Something you say after you fuck up. This way, people will think you have actually succeeded when in fact you have failed so miserably your former supporters have crossed over.

Mission Accomplished in Iraq, eh?

US CONSTITUTION

a document that is ignored by the United States whenever it deems appropriate, kind of like the Geneva Conventions

There is absolutely no consistency for when to follow the constitution, and when to ignore it.

black bloc

during protests, the black bloc is the group of anarchists on their bikes wearing black hoodies with the hoods on, and a bandana over their face so only their eyes show. They are usually spotted heading off on breakaways and they do things like smash windows of corporations, refuse to obey police orders to disperse, and fight back during police brutality. However, they do not do this just for fun, or because they are bored. They have political agendas that no one agrees to accept or consider so they revert to agression to pique interests. They are also very much against the cops. Usually, Black blocs will erupt with their messages during critical political times (i.e. going to war with Iraq)

Here in San Francisco, the black blocs show up for just about every single protest, and they organize breakaways. However, they usually fail to incite any kind of rioting, save the one right after the first bomb was dropped in Iraq. Then, they shut down the financial distrct of this city, even though it had no affect.

What happened to the times when black blocs did REAL riots with and REAL damage???
