Provide evidence or prepare to look indistinguishable from propaganda peddlers. Do you not see the irony in railing against baseless assertions by making baseless assertions? I guess not...
You are confusing the mainstream media with scientific literature. I can understand why - you get all the fun of tearing apart scientific findings you disagree with, without all that nasty business of actually demonstrating anything. Of course a newspaper headline is going to be non-falsifiable and unscientific - it's a newspaper, not a paper in a journal. Find the paper they are discussing and rip it to shreds with your own paper. If you can't do that, it might just behove you to stop pretending you've done it. You haven't. You'd like to, I'm sure, but you haven't.
Listen to the literature, and maybe you will stop being quite so confused. You are not helping your position by telling everyone you get your scientific information from the TV Times.
You just told everyone you consider the mainstream media scientific literature. The only thing you're damaging with statements like this is your reputation, which luckily you have hidden.
Want to try again? You just listed some organisations with no proof they (and all their members) are actually doing what is claimed. Sure, it's a pithy argument and looks good, but it is logically bankrupt.
There are plenty of libraries which parse markdown just fine, are easy to implement, and have highly predictable output. Complaining about this is just bizarre.
Don't confuse "having a conservative viewpoint" with "having a conservative viewpoint and spouting bollocks", as while the two overlap, the criticism you receive is usually due to the bollocks-spouting and not the conservatism. This is patently obvious judging by the plethora of conservatives who are not regularly down-modded into oblivion. It's clearly not your being a conservative that is causing the backlash, but what you are doing with your conservatism. It's rather disingenuous to ignore the highly opinionated stance you've adopted over these last few years and simply blame everything on people hating on conservatives.
Any user on Slashdot who goes out of their way to repeatedly promote some narrative in the way you have should expect the ghosts of said narrative to follow them around.
Will you be ok? Should we shut down the internet to protect you from the horrible people out there? Maybe we should start a Kickstarter to get you through these terrible times...
As someone who lives in a city with a lot of bikes, that doesn't happen. The cyclists will avoid the pedestrian and the pedestrian will avoid the cyclists. They don't all steer/walk towards each other screaming "BUT RED CRAB WARNED US THIS WOULD HAPPEN!" and explode like Michael Bay's best dream.
Well I'll be sure to let Facebook know so they can shut the whole operation down. Thanks for sharing your wonderful insight, Mr. Represents-All-People-Everywhere.
You seem to be woefully ignorant of history. That you would post that thinking you are offering anything to the discussion (other than outing yourself) is staggering.
Your argument appears to be entirely devoid of logic. War? You made that up. Your last sentence is some sort of bizarre projection that serves only to illustrate just how out of touch you are with the world around you. It's sad. Really sad.
The country is not full. Clearly it isn't - just look at a map (one of the many things invented by dastardly foreigners). The Isle of Wight is not even full yet. Get a grip.
Worried about money? Get Ikea to pay their tax bill, and you've just funded the refugees for a few years. Rinse & repeat with whatever other companies you wish.
If you are going to make arguments based on conjecture and fear, expect to be called a xenophobe.
You do realise that something being "pretty hard" is not the same as it being "impossible", meaning you can come up with some examples of it happening and not prove a single thing? Of course not. Not needing a visa to live permanently in another EU state is clearly easer for relocation than needing to apply for visas to stay more than a few months in the US.
You seem to be struggling with numbers. 2% Muslim to 4% Muslim (the figures if all of Syria were to be moved to Europe) doesn't mean "Islamic Europe". Unless you are woefully confused, childishly scared, or just some sort of hateful dick.

That is your opinion, and not one shared by everyone.

Your prejudice is worrying.
A few seconds and the correct rights, not to mention a complete lack of oversight.
It was a reference to this place, which managed to screw up its name so horrifically that it's kind of funny.
If the driver was not already going to the destination, calling it "ride sharing" is like calling a restaurant "meal sharing".

Very true. The fact it is irrational and illogical makes it irrational and illogical.
Descriptive languages are, but not prescriptive languages. Luckily for you English is the former and not the latter :)
Only if you are confused by it.
You seem to be woefully ignorant of history. That you would post that thinking you are offering anything to the discussion (other than outing yourself) is staggering.
You are ignoring the fact that four million people would be forcibly relocated based on nonsense arguments that boil down to "Rule Britannia".

But as an EU citizen you can live and work in the UK with no paperwork. None. It's a lot different to visiting or working in the US.

"Potential invasion"? Get over yourself and get some perspective. Your rabid fearmongering leads to nothing but bullshit and suffering.
