  I had the pleasure of watching the little shits Dad on TV today
wondering how they could still punish his son after the US govt. condemned it.

  Many people wonder why foreign countries hate the US.  This is a prime
example.  US citizens like to roam the planet like they own it.  When you
go to a foreign country, know damn well that you are subject to its laws. 
If you don't like it, don't go or don't break their laws.

  The crap about Singapore justice being barbaric is irrelevant.  They
have just as much right to run their country as they please as we do. 
Whether it is barbaric or not is all a matter of cultural perspective. 
That word's something most Americans aren't familiar with.  Most Americans
assume their ways are right and that's that.  Bullshit.  There is no right
or wrong, just beliefs.  If you think differently, prove it.  Quantify it.
Show me in no subjective manner what is right or wrong.  No pulling the
'God says so, it's faith bullshit either'.  I bet you can't do it.

Until you can, right and wrong is irrelevant.  The only thing left is that
a bunch of Americans are pissed that an American is ACTUALLY subject to
another country's laws simply because they're tearing up shit in someone
else's land.  That's life.  That's independance.  Live with it or stay home.
