You seem to be quite the fan of hyperbole it seems. It's not really helping the discussion - this is what gossipy people do. Stick to the facts, and you might learn something.
I see you conveniently forgot all the other stuff he mentioned. Weird. It's almost as if you don't care about the facts, and just want to complain about Microsoft.
No, but by the same token we should realize that when our actions are designed purely to cause others to do something nasty to a third party, we would be dicks to do it.
The first link doesn't show what you seem to think it does, and the second site is some nonsensical pro-lifer drivel, which doesn't go out of its way to provide access to the sources, making it indistinguishable from fantasy to those without access to the papers it cites. They're not really helping your argument!
So you are using the slippery slope fallacy. You really should see how healthcare works in other countries before projecting your own paranoid opinion of your own healthcare onto it. If someone wants to die, they will be seen by doctor after doctor to ensure they are making an informed decision and not suffering from some undiagnosed mental illness, and only once they are all happy with the choice, the patient is given the tools to end their life.
The last time people were so excited to legally kill someone, some US state flipped the switch to fry the person in question... it's strange how you forgot that example...
Sure - just ignore the coup instigated by the US and UK, which overthrew their democratically-elected leader and installed a pro-west puppet dictator who unleashed torture and violence against any Iranian who dared to not like it. See how well that works out for you. I'm sure you'd simply love for that to happen in your country.
It's not about whether it worked for them, but whether it worked against the US, which it clearly has. The US can not criticize any other government's actions against indigenous people without having to first accept the fact that it attempted to commit genocide against its own indigenous people first.
My bank over here in Germany requires the use of a TAN-generator device to make transfers/pay bills online. You put your card in the device, press a button, hold it to the screen, check the details shown on it, and then type the TAN back in to the website to finalise the transaction. That seems pretty secure to me, but I'm no expert.
Irrelevant - the company themselves say the bricks are called "LEGO", and never "LEGOs". Writing LEGO as Lego is acceptable, however, according to many style guides, but never Legos. That's just sick.
That is the increase in the global sea level. Locally it can vary a great deal, depending on the specific weather systems and climate phenomena. If the prevailing winds change, for example, local sea levels can increase far greater than your 0.12 inches per year.
You ask for it to be explained to you, then launch an attack as if you were not even waiting for an answer - that is not being skeptical but being cynical - a trait that will only hamper your continuing education, not help.
It would help your cause to know what you're talking about before calling it nonsense, as the only damage your post did was to your reputation, not to climate change. The science still stands unscathed, but everyone who read your post now knows you aren't really interesting in learning or that you have assumed you know all there is to know, either of which isn't doing you any favors.
The scariest thing is you probably know all this anyway, as you seem otherwise intelligent...
The usual size argument. Well, again, it's not as clear-cut as you say. The US has more people to pay for those roads, and richer people too. I'm pretty sure the terrible bridge conditions in the US are not because of its size, but because of an innate desire among certain people to resist taxes and tax increases because of some selfish notion...
Don't think all public transport is as bad as where you live. In many parts of the world it is efficient, clean, value for money, and incredibly useful. I guess other governments (local, national, whatever) aren't as screwed up as yours.
You do realise that it's populations, not individuals, which evolve, right? Probably not, hence you vomiting that nonsense for everyone to see, deftly illustrating your knee-jerk reactionism and lack of knowledge backing up your opinions.
You can bandy about words like liberal and liberalism all you wish, but it just shows you are scared and ill-informed. Remember - the people who read your posts might not be as intellectually hindered as you are, and what might seem like a witty retort to you can (and likely will) look like an absolute joke to others.
They're just trying to help you. Every time you use $ in Microsoft's name, your argument loses credibility. You look childish, and therefore your argument looks childish, and people will simply ignore you. We know Microsoft has a lot of money, and like nearly every other company on the face of the planet, they are trying to make more. This should not be a surprise to you...
Slippery slope detected! You might want to try sticking to logic before trying to argue your point - otherwise you just end up babbling on about something which has no bearing on the subject.
You also seem to entirely forget that there are people outside the parent/child relationship who suffer should the parent not vaccinate the child.
You suck at arguing this position, and I think you know it. You are continually clutching at straw after straw to show why people should decline one of the greatest life-savers the world has ever seen. Edward Jenner's ghost probably wants to pop you in the mouth right about now.

That might be, but until it's actually tried, we won't know. Hence them trying.
You really are a crackpot! I see you've been working hard at it.

You really have no idea why that's a terrible idea to even suggest, do you? Of course you don't.
Not understanding the scientific method isn't something you should be proud of...
No, but by the same token we should realize that when our actions are designed purely to cause others to do something nasty to a third party, we would be dicks to do it.
Seeing as you got that wrong, it makes me wonder what else you got wrong with just as much conviction, without even realising you were wrong...

Those scientists didn't not predict an earthquake, they predicted there would be no earthquake. See the difference?
The MWP was a localised event in Europe. Comparing that to a global event is, well, about as dumb as it gets.

That's only temporary. The moon is receding, and so the total eclipses won't last forever.

"Invariably"? Sure, if you ignore the fact that when density increases, public transport becomes even more efficient...
