    See this vacuum tube, little fishy? Feel that suction? You piss in the aquarium one more time and I swear to god, you're gonna find out what's on the other end!

    God bless you! to an atheist?

    I don't think the analogy works. It's more like "how would you feel if I said 'May Darwinian selection favor your genes' during and after every conversation?" Christians throwing around "God bless you" randomly is a form of evangelism lite. They're doing it because they want you to feel Jesus...

    Sweden, Finland, and Ukraine joining NATO?

    Why am I suddenly reminded of a whole shit-ton of blonde jokes?

    George Zimmerman Arrested On Domestic Violence And Weapons Charge

    Just a few days ago, i seem to recall a case in which a guy thought things were about to go sideways, so he went to his car to get his gun, and shot the guy who came at him. For some reason, there was widespread agreement that he had no right to self-defense. But Z did essentially the same...

    Teen forced to continue chemotherapy against her will.

    Actually, they are quite good comparisons. Each of these is a life-changing decision with profound consequences, and all but marrying carry potentially deadly consequences. There is a reason that we do not allow minors to make such decisions. There is a very good reason for setting age limits on...

    7 Habits of Highly Affected Racialists

    My question is one that is asked on FOX news and on right-wing radio shows all the time. It's a question that has a pretty obvious answer, but you don't like the answer. So you pretend it's a leading question. It's not. So I ask again: Why don't poor black people just get a good education and...

    Israel freezes Palestinian tax funds in retaliation for joining ICC

    If Israel really wanted the 67 borders and peace, the separation wall would run along the 67 border.

    7 Habits of Highly Affected Racialists

    Yep. Which means caring about poor people. Poor people who look and act and talk different from us. Poor people who work two jobs at minimum wage because they're "lazy." Poor people who are raised by a single mom because their dad was hauled off to prison on trumped-up charges. Poor people who...

    Teen forced to continue chemotherapy against her will.

    In this case, the court apparently did not think she had the maturity to make her own decision. Considering the foolishness of the decision she was trying to make, I am inclined to agree.

    Teen forced to continue chemotherapy against her will.

    That's a nice utopian solution, but that's not the way laws generally work. Arbitrary lines are precisely what the law deals in, because any other type of line will end up being subjective.

    7 Habits of Highly Affected Racialists

    This is a problem that can be easily addressed by the colleges. One example is the University of Hawaii, which I attended - they simply assume that freshman students did not learn the basics of Math, English composition, or Geography (iirc) in High School, and require intro-level...

    7 Habits of Highly Affected Racialists

    It's not "racist" by any definition. It is racially discriminatory, but it's not done out of hatred, or a belief in racial superiority/inferiority, or anything else that rational people equate with racism. It's not an excuse, it's a reason. Brain fart - meant to write "sectarianism."

    7 Habits of Highly Affected Racialists

    If you accept the limited sociological definition of racism as "racial bigotry + power," then yes, this is accurate. By the OP definition of racism, again correct. That's the ideal, and the goal. Agreed. However, the fact that most Blacks and a significant number of Hispanics are currently...

    I thought that was probably the case. Akirk is too polite to ask ;)

    Who shot down MH17

    That's not Russian media, therefore it is a propaganda tool of the corrupt West.

    So where do we draw the line between minors and adults?

    7 Habits of Highly Affected Racialists

    Pretty much. And even saying "poverty is the problem" needs to be very closely followed by "racism is the cause of the poverty," as crazy eddie does here. dismal et al are simply playing gotcha, trying to pretend that 1) anyone who even approaches engaging in one of the 7 Habits must be a...

    Sweden, Finland, and Ukraine joining NATO?

    They may not have been the prime movers in the coup. But they were most certainly the prime movers in the military escalation, providing materiel and troops to the separatist protesters and illegally annexing Crimea. Without US & NATO support, Yanukovych would likely have been voted out of...

    George Zimmerman Arrested On Domestic Violence And Weapons Charge

    Doesn't a man have the right to violence in the privacy of his own home? Fascist pricks. :angryfist: Thanks, Obama.
