Coburn Pharr is just a guy from Puerto Rico, whose real name is Carlos. I've been a member of Wikipedia since May, 2004. Any article that has anything to do with Puerto Rico will surely have my words somewhere. Besides that, I'm also interested in music, politics, law and history articles. I'm a freak with anything that deals with Supreme Courts.
I am a Wikipedia Failed Admin Candidate. On September, 2005 my admin request failed. Apparently, 60% support isn't enough.
[edit] Personal
I am currently a junior at the University of Puerto Rico, Rio Piedras Campus. I'm doing a major in Political Sciences.
And yes, I am proud of being a Wikipediholic. And no, i'm NOT the former lead singer of Annihilator.
[edit] Favorite Quotes
- "Strength and Wisdom are not opposing values"-Bill Clinton
- "Blurring the lines between virtue and sin, they can't tell where God ends and Mankind Begins"- John Petrucci, Dream Theater
- "America isn't easy. America is advanced citizenship. You've gotta want it bad, 'cause it's gonna put up a fight. It's gonna say, "You want free speech? Let's see you acknowledge a man whose words make your blood boil, who's standing center stage and advocating at the top of his lungs that which you would spend a lifetime opposing at the top of yours." You want to claim this land as the land of the free? Then the symbol of your country cannot just be a flag. The symbol also has to be one of its citizens exercising his right to burn that flag in protest. Now show me that, defend that, celebrate that in your classrooms. Then you can stand up and sing about the land of the free." - The American President.
- "Never again shall we tolerate abuse of the magnitude and scope the likes of which no community in any of the 50 states would ever be asked to tolerate. Never again shall we tolerate such abuse. Not for 60 years, and not for 60 months, or 60 days, 60 hours, or 60 minutes. This might be a classic case of might versus right. And we the people of Puerto Rico have empowered ourselves to uphold a cause that is right." - Pedro Rossello, before the Senate Armed Forces Committee regarding the Navy-Vieques protests.
[edit] Hated Quotes
- "Most of the rights you enjoy go way beyond what the Constitution requires because the Constitution just sets minimums. Accordingly, in war time the protections will be ratcheted down to the constitutional minimum." -Antonin Scalia
- "They hate us? We hate them! Americans don't want to make islamic fanatics love us. We want to make them die. There's nothing like horrendous physical pain to quell angry fanatics."- Ann Coulter
