    I haven't read any Polisci. Is he any good? Sounds Romanian.

    Can I insert a yes here without having to justify my statement?

    If people are leaving you alone and harming nobody while behaving differently, then just leave them alone.

    It really depends on what you consider to be 'harming people'.

    I don't see anything odious about his statement.

    Are you heterosexual? Not looking for a fight just wondering.

  5. Re:When you ride at night, on Lead Developer of Yum Killed In Hit-and-run · · Score: 1

    My friends 12yo daughter was run down by an SUV. The driver (who had connections in the South Australian justice system) pled not guilty for a few years then changed his plea. The penalty he got for killing a twelve year old girl was a $100 fine and NO BAN from driving at all. Did I mention that somehow he was never tested for drugs or alcohol?
    Why bother running here when you don't get in trouble anyway?

    The don't need to build a new ghetto. They just subsidise housing for these people and spread them out through the suburbs evenly. What could go wrong?

    I am sure the person you are replying to feels that if the attacker wasn't killed then he has the opportunity to be rehabilitated in a government facility and can then go on to become a productive member of society. Killing him to defend your loved ones robs him of that chance.

    Is that a boring person who never goes out and lives in a basement?

    I wasn't really arguing just wondering that maybe in X generations that gene may be gone. Your last paragraph makes a lot of sense. In all honesty I have never really thought about the subject. Once again though someone has published a link that is taking me down another fascinating rabbit hole. Thank you.

  14. Re:Oh, Canada... on Teenage League of Legends Player Jailed For Months For Facebook Joke · · Score: 1

    Especially since, the only life potentially in jeapordy is his own, which is his to take by right if he chooses. No denial of that right will ever be just in my eyes.

    The fact that suicide is illegal demonstrates who actually believes they own that life

    How did this anonymous Canadian lady find out just who he was from a posting in game? Was he playing on a server located in Canada? Was she an admin on that server with access to personal records? If she was then I hope she rots in hell.

    If homosexuality was genetic would it not breed itself out after a few(however many) generations?

    It wasn't uncommon years ago to ask for a cigarette by asking "Can I bum a fag". That doesn't fly anymore.

    I got pulled over in AU because of a 27 year old marijuana charge that flagged me as a suspected dangerous drug user. Since that charge marijuana has been decriminalised in my state but that didn't seem to matter. If you think these cameras aren't going to interface with more than just transport authority computers either now or in your near future then you have an unpleasant surprise coming.
