Generally a massacre involves people dying. No one died in the Chinese knife attack, because knives are much less dangerous than guns.

So we're just gonna gloss over the fact that a man burst into a Chinese school with a machete, stabbed 22 preteen children....solely because none of them died?

God, this is silly even by the Deluge's standards.

Why exactly are you pitting two renowned economists against a duo of failed clowns?

I don't think I would call O'Reilly or Limbaugh 'renowned economists'...

Vosem's attempt to be funny are almost as painful as Tim Pawlenty's attempt to appear hip by saying how much he likes Lady Gaga's songs.


It can't be denied that your post in that thread is much, much funnier than mine.

To wit:

Quote from: Landslide Lyndon on December 26, 2012, 04:25:18 AM
The concept of two Nobel laureates, who correctly predicted and analyzed the crisis, being "dangerous" just shows what a good job Fox News has done when it comes to brainwashing its viewers.


Why don't you just shut up? You only have 3000 posts, but they are all so painful to read that it feels like you have 300000.

You're posting in the right thread. Ideally, this should be the only thread you ever post in.

While I can't say I'm happy at the result of this election, I can at least be glad that in the US your right to free speech is taken much more seriously than in most of the rest of the world.

Wow. Oldies managed to come up with 4-5 absurd things unrelated to each other and combine them in a single post.

So people should not be encouraged to break laws that infringe upon their rights so as to enable those laws to be challenged in court? That would be news to Homer Plessy, Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King, etc.

The issus is than an Attorney-General does it.

If the Attorney General of Mississippi in 1850 encouraged people to help slaves escape to the north, would you oppose it?

I would argue all of them are of equal importance, however even though I personally like the 1st, 4th, and 10th best, the 2nd is the only one which guarantees the ability to protect the others.

There's no way to argue rationally with someone who seriously thinks that, in the 21st century, our sole defense against tyranny is represented by some random nutjob with his rifle. There's nothing to do but laugh (or cry, depending on the mood).

There are many more crimes than murder, rape, robbery and assault that deserve prison.

Republicans: Large sodas are unhealthy, so I choose not to drink them.
Democrats: Large sodas are unhealthy, I want them banned for everyone.

Then liberals claim they're for individual rights. Hypocrites.

And your position on marijuana...

One's illegal, the other's not, "King".

This is bad even by Naso standards (!!!).

No. I'm in favour of a minimum property qualification, but once you meet it, your vote should count the same as a billionaire.

Especially in academia Cry

I'd argue that that's the only place where it isn't a cancer, to be honest.

Citing your damn sources is really not that hard.

I quoted it to express approval, not as "this belongs in the deluge" quoting. Sorry for the confusion.


Anyway, I do hate citing sources requirements, but that's only because my technique for writing papers mainly consists in writing whatever comes out of my head at the time.

No, I wasn't confused; I was agreeing with you (and by extension myself). Very vehemently. I'm sorry for the confusion on that point!

Oops, my bad. Tongue
