  1. I'll take that and raise you VB6... or VB in general, old and new.

    Where is my racism? At what point does anything in my statement list anything close to race? How about, instead of yelling BIGOT! RACIST! SEXIST! when someone disagrees with you... you instead form thoughts and turn them into sentences that back your claims.

    And... you forgot to blame Bush and the NRA as well... your troll is weak.

    He "says" he will... while Obama is responsible for killing people with Drones... and his policies have left a vacuum in the middle east that is the cause of how much pain, suffering, strife?

    And Hillary will be better than Obama how? She's "behind" his strategy lock, stock and barrel? She's voted for every war put before her and by many reports is a driver of the policies responsible for the train wreck that is the middle east...

    At the end of the day... real changes (including more torture) will go through congress... and personally? I'd much rather terrorists KNOW that we will bomb their neighborhoods - and we'll accept "collateral damage" when they hide in mosques/hospitals/schools/etc... Instead of being to afraid of saying the DREADFUL words "radical Islam" and letting Americans die while leadership debate what uniforms to wear...

    Why trust Trump? Because Trump knows and has used the system to build his Empire... Who else would know what needs to be changed other than someone who has worked it from the inside?

    As opposed to "To simple minded to know what '(c)'" means? A known war hawk? Supporter of all the trade bills that are fucking the American Middle Class? A woman who, but many reports, has endorsed the highest donators to her "Charity"? Is pro women yet supports regimes that treat women as property, defends pedophiles and rapists (her husband)? Is pro LGBT yet accepts donations from countries that murder them? Is pro minority yet calls them "Super Predators" and is partially responsible for legislation that has led to generations of them in prison?

    Trump is faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar from perfect... but on his WORST day He's still more trustworthy than Hilldog.

    So... upgrade to operating systems that lack functionality (major games, major software packages, etc) or are grossly unstable (Never had good luck with Linux Desktop, personally...)... and then you have to relearn how to use less features and less stable features...

    Yeah... that's a winning combination...

    If you are going to stay stuck in the past, at least stay on Windows 7 with GWX Control Panel or Never10 installed.

    I think that there are some things you can rehabilitate from and that you can turn around from...

    in my opinion, abusing a child (and I'm not talking about a 19 year old sleeping with a 16 year old... or some of these "borderline" cases) is unforgivable. The punishment for that should be SO extreme that your life should basically be forfeit if you commit this kind of crime.

    That's my opinion, and I stand by it.

    Let's be honest, there's a difference between some guy who had consensual sex with a 16-17 year old and some guy who molests pre-pubescent children. The former should be treated like any other criminal and the other needs to stay locked away for everyone's safety. These half-measures hurt everyone involved.

    I agree with this fully, and I was going to reply to the effect to some people... there does need to be a sliding scale for adolescents that make mistakes - or do stuff with "permission" from parents then break up and all of a sudden its rape - or these borderline acceptable behaviors...

    Up to those who deserve to be castrated and dumped into gen pop prison with their case made public.

    I'm not dense enough to think that it's all black and white with no shades of grey - guilty for life or not... My assumption is that this is on the bad side of the scale - and someone who's genuinely used/abused a child deserves to have their lives ruined. They've ruined someone elses life (irregardless of whether that person heals). The punishment for that deserves to be SO extreme that anyone who considers it knows that their life will effectively end.

    I don't think this should be an eye for an eye... this should be an eye... for an eye and an arm and a leg and...

    A bit harsh... but it's the one "unforgivable" sin in my book.

    While I would normally agree with you, I think "child prostitution and pornography" is an exception...

    Does the kids who have had their lives abused get to forget after 3 years?

    I hate to be "Think of the Childrens!!!" because it's trope and it gets pushed too often... but seriously... fuck this guy and let the world know that he destroyed some kid(s) life(lives).

    Because Nature makes arsnic, plastic, lead, oil slicks, titanium, etc? Native Americans could have been considered "Natural variation". What we do now most definitely can't be... Now... we can definitely argue to the extent that we are affecting the world - nothing of notice? We are all DHOOOOMED!!!? Some shade in between?

But you are a complete retard if you think dumping everything - and the kitchen sink - into the ocean will have an affect of "natural variation".
