An argument in which I refered to FunkinAround as a "he."

I find it funny that you automatically think I'm a male.

What's even funnier is that you automatically think that "women are bitches" and that it's "simple as that." To further-strengthen my amusement you also said that you weren't "really saying all are, but nonetheless 85% of them are" without any evidence. Whether you're a male or a female, you still have no support for your claims sweetykins.

What?! You don't have a D.S.?

The D.S. sucks.

Reasons:
1. I'm not one to jump on bandwagons so fast.

2. It doesn't play classic Gameboy Games like Metroid II or Mario Land.

3. It gives you 3D games but it doesn't have any analog, you have to play Mario 64 with a D-Pad, how wrong is that?

4. You can't hook up any of the old perhiperals to it properly like the e-reader or the GB Camera.

5. It's fat :\ I'll hold out for a slimmer version (if they ever make one).

Until then, I'm happy with my SP.

I was also away for two stinkin' days because I had no power whatsoever at my house. All the rain over here on the west coast caused a power outage and here's a pic of me using my Gameboy SP as a flashlight. I tell ya, them SP's come in handy.

I dont know much about the Guatanomo bay thing, i havent really looked at it.

Even worse now there are reports that claim that the prisoners there are being mistreated, mal nutritioned, tortured (I've heard in some cases), and not allowed to pray.

The US is doing a lot of very bad things, which only breeds more hatred towards the US. But I guess we'll find that out when the next terrorist attacks start.

As if the world didnt hate the US before, and its not like the US hasnt done any bad things in anyone's presidency.

True Soul Chamber, however, now more than ever it seems that the U.S. is trying to be the world watchdog and doing a miserable job at it.

The US had no right to invade Iraq. Iraq was not an imminent threat to its neighbors much less the US.

My excuse, saddam needed to be taken out, yours, iraq wasnt a threrat. this isnt going anywhere.

My proposition, Saddam should have been taken out when we had the chance and when we were at serious odds with him with George Bush senior as president, not Jr.

Bosnia happened because the war crimes were being commited at that time. Iraq's happened over a decade ago.

So its ok for a dem. president to go into battle, but not a rep. president.

Straw Man fallacy, you took ReiperX's words and mis-shaped them to sound like if we went to war because a democrat president was in office at the time. What ReiperX was saying is that the war crimes on Bosnia were being committed then, then was when we should have taken action, just like we should have taken action against Saddam when George Bush senior was in office and Saddam was not only commiting many war crimes but also in serious opposition to us.

with a democracy (if you would call it one) the majority rules, so i dont see how they would oppress the majority.

What if the majority are persuaded to become insurgents or defiant citizens?

The US has had a horrible horrible history of putting governments and people into power. We put Osama and Sadaam into power, and they ended up the US's worse enemies.

yeah, we made a mistake, now we're correcting it.

Apparently the correcting also seems to be another mistake.

Yay 100 replies... anyway. One could also argue that God gave us free will as a sort of experiment in order to analyze and see what kind of decisions we would make. People are going to argue that we don't have free will (like poxpower says) but at least we're still at a freedom to choose what we want.

Surely people would call any god a hypocrite who gave us free will, and then made sure we couldn't do certain things...

Perhaps he did it for his own personal reasons like... so we could learn from our mistakes. Hence why we don't use the electric chair anymore.

Score for religious Zealots like me!

No, people are just too stupid, irresponsible and ignorant to be able to govern themselves. It's not entirely etheir fault though, society holds partial blame for not being able to educate them. If you don't believe me, I look at the people in these BBS Politics forums like Skunk, Shrike, Stafffighter, FatherVenom, Damien3003, BeFell, Maus... etc... and I watch how they argue or the kinds of solutions or answers they offer. What I do next is I offer a similar question to people that I encounter in real life on a one-on-one basis, and the answers I get sound like something coming out of a 5th grader's mouth with next-to-nothing in critical thinking. It's really quite embarassing to see how stupid some people are, especially if you know some of those people. Anyway the point I'm trying to make is, there are too many idiots out there (at the moment) such that society wouldn't be able to govern itself. The perfect government would be when we could all think for ourselves, be responsible for what we do and wise in what we do, and when we are ready that is the kind of government we will have, not just yet though...

*Does the noobish thing and ignores everything else for now*

Ok... where do you get off stating that Republicans idolize George W. Bush and say that he's the best president ever? Did you just deliberately build up a straw man (false image) of the Republican party and put words in their mouths? I can't even believe this topic was dignified with educated responses, this was a retarded question to begin with because it contained grave errors and assumptions. The first error is, as I said already, putting words in someone else's mouth (the Republicans in this case) and the second is challenging the Republican people in this BBS to post some sort of reply to such a stupid proposal. If George Bush were democrat he wouldn't have Republican views. George Bush has Republican views, therefore he is not a democrat. Furthermre, if George W. Bush had democratic views, he wouldn't have the support of the Republicans. George W. Bush does not have democratic views (he has a Republican political agenda instead) therefore he has the support of th Republicans. Your argument doesn't state that something should follow from your proposition, now please stfu and gtfo with this nonsense.

King? :/ great novelist I'm sure. What about Martin Luther King Jr? Anyone ever read the "Letter from Birmingham Jail"?

Is that so? Then 95% of men are dinks and assholes.

Such ficticious statistics lacking in any kind of evidence really ruin the valibidy of both your arguments, especially FunkinAround's because he started with his retarded claim. I suggest you do some research before making such a general claim about all women because when you say something like that, you actually help prove yourself wrong and prove bambi right because you're acting like an asshole by saying that, thus you vicariously and unwillingly support her argument with your idiocy.

At 12/23/04 05:53 PM, ShadowMind wrote: Now, how many people here actually think that the war on Iraq is actually fighting the same group of terrorists the it was originally after?

It's not. Iraqis aren't refered to as "terrorrists" but instead as "insurgents" which basicaly means: rebels. I beg of you not to take a misconception of rebels though, not as they are portrayed in movies at least, not all rebels are good, some just rebel because they don't like taking orders. Let's analyze which kinds of rebels/insurgents we're dealing with in this case.

What I think is that the terrorists who were responsible for 9/11 had nothing to do with Iraq and have had nothing to do with Iraq for a long time. Where I think the "terrorist attacks" on US troops have been coming from is regualar Iraqis who are trying desperately to defend their homeland from an invading force.

Well if this is true, then these insurgents choose to rebel because they don't feel like an outside force (the U.S.A.) should come into their country, destroy things and order them around. Such actions are understandable, but peple tend to percieve that the insurgents kill our soldiers out of evil intent. Those kinds of people are looking from the outside to the inside (of the conflict) failing to realize that things look much different in the eyes of the insurgents: they (the insurgents) think they might be fighting for a good cause by killing our soldiers. Either way you look at it, it's bad for us to go in and wreck their land, and bad for them to try and kill our soldiers, but it's too late to go back now, we have to finish what we started.

Now obviously the Iraqi insurgents aren't the same as the Al Qaeda terrorrists, those were terrorrists, and they claimed responsibility for the attacks of 9/11. Furthermore, the Al Qaeda were situated in Afghanistan, whilst the insurgents are Iraqi, and both countries seldom had any sort of ties to one another, if any at all. Osama Bin Laden and Saddam Hussein never even associated with one another. Therefore to say that Iraq had any ties to Al Qaeda was ludicrous, and surely enough, the Bush administration admitted this a couple months before these past elections.

With this in mind, consider what would happen if the US left Iraq. All of those peasant militias would have nothing more to be aggressive about, and there would be much less violence.

Yes but as others have already argued in this thread, it would be a battle for top-dog right off the bat, we have no other logical choice at the moment then to stick to the plan and keep things cool (that goes for our soldiers too, no more shocking actions or videos) until the elections are held, the people vote, and a government is put into place for Iraq. I just keep my fingers crossed that there is no more bloodshed.

Easy for you, I had to deal with being 5'6.5 -.- how sad is that? God won't even give me 7'. Yeah that NY episode of The Simpsons was the shiznit too... as a result of 9/11 the twin-towers scene from the first Spiderman movie was removed. You can only see it in the previews for the movie way before it came out.

Make a fucking point to your post for the love of all that is good. Day before what? Christmas? People have done sicker things than that, like kill a little girl in front of her mom's eyes during a drive-by shooting, also a couple days before Christmas. I can now understand why your nickname is the way it is; it suits you.
