Alright then, you jumped to an assumption. :clap:

Wrong. I didn't vote for anyone, because I wasn't eligible to vote, because I'm not - and have never been - a citizen of the United States. Now, the q...

So, we should create stuff and search for meaning, both of which we unavoidably do anyway by our very nature. What next? Should we eat, sleep, and def...

I have read my post, and I've learnt that I'm a pretty cool guy, and that I must surely be evolving towards a point at which I will become a being coo...

My spirit urges me to create a mental dustbin for those kind of vague comments brimming with faux profundity and lacking in merit. The question is too...

If one of them can become the President of the United States, then I don't see why not.

I see that the same mistakes are still being made. There's a distinction of the utmost importance between a right to self-defence and a right to bear ...

You must not have been keeping up with the news as of late. The two main parties are either neck-and-neck in the polls or Labour has a slight lead. Ma...

:lol: At first I thought that you were joking, but having read further, it seems that you were actually being serious. I think that that's a terrible ...
February 25, 2018 at 18:19
Yes, it's relevant, but perhaps not in the way that you think it is. Do you think that it's relevant that a higher percentage of football fans would t...

He mistakenly includes speculation amongst the facts, hence he arrives at a different conclusion from that of you or I.
February 25, 2018 at 17:35
I don't know if this point has already been made, but there are other laws which may be of relevance here, such as defamation law. You can't just go a...

I think that someone sent me a message which has been deleted before I took a look at it, and now I'm stuck with a notification which won't go away. L...

My hope is that they'll keep shooting themselves in the foot so that Comrade Corbyn can take both the moral high ground and the government.
February 25, 2018 at 16:52
It is a fact in UK law that, under the right circumstances (which I won't elaborate upon, but which you could look up), a sixteen-year-old in the UK c...

Show me where, in this discussion, I have not taken a stand for principles I believe in, despite the potential controversy surrounding them. Show me w...
February 25, 2018 at 15:11
Since you're pointing out irrelevancies... What they think might also be irrelevant to whether it's morally right or wrong, and even the law might be ...
February 25, 2018 at 15:05
Tell me about it! This is well worth a watch: https://youtu.be/P5keoT4PvPs "Surely the real scandal is the outright lies and disinformation that your ...

(The comment above was directed at Wayfarer) Oh, so you acknowledge the point that guns make the crimes more lethal, which is a big point against main...
February 25, 2018 at 14:28
Right, but gun deaths as a result of violent crime is of import. Violent crimes may vary from homicide to harassment, but clearly gun deaths which com...
February 25, 2018 at 14:17
You're citing findings which go against your initial claim. Guns, clearly, are a more lethal weapon. This is both common sense and supported by statis...

February 25, 2018 at 13:45
Yes, I agree. That's a problem too, and one which ought to be tackled. That's why I'll be voting for Labour in the next general election. They won't b...
February 25, 2018 at 13:37
None of that seems to apply when using a smart phone, so it's still an issue. The only way I know of to find that out for sure would be to search thro...

Well, when it comes down to it, neither you nor I know what his motives are, or what their nature is, whether they be altruistic or self-interested. B...

I started watching that one a few weeks ago, but I haven't seen the whole thing. They didn't even touch upon politics in what I've seen so far, which,...
February 25, 2018 at 12:14
I am. I just listed to you only some of what someone aged sixteen or over is considered old enough to do. Obviously how mature any particular sixteen-...

I once pointed a real, high calibre pistol at my cat, and then took a photo of it just before the gun accidentally fired, causing my cat to instantane...
February 15, 2018 at 02:38
Then what is the issue? It seems to me that the issue is that you've got the wrong end of the stick, have misinterpreted something I've said, and we'r...
February 15, 2018 at 01:45
I care less about how someone is regarded than what they actually say. You should too. If he says ludicrous and frankly idiotic things, like in the vi...

The point of the above reply, as I hear it, is: "I've heard that this guy's a bad guy, so I'm going to assume that he's a bad guy. Guilty before prove...

This is very superficial and misleading. Here's a thought experiment for you: imagine that his brother had had sex with two females under the age of e...

Preaching to the choir is not education, sonny Jim; it's a waste of time. The point that you appear to have missed is obviously whether or not it is f...
February 14, 2018 at 23:59
We know very little about his brother's practices. What is in the public domain, like an unspent criminal record, can legally be published, but that d...

Hogwash. You don't know enough to know whether or not it was rape. You don't know whether or not there was mutual consent. All we have been told was t...

The funny guy with the glasses and French accent. Oh, and the lil' bowtie!
February 14, 2018 at 12:28
Hilarious! I love the way this joker looks and sounds just like an intellectual. >:O
February 14, 2018 at 12:24
S'alright.
February 14, 2018 at 12:14
That's stupid. That's just as stupid, if not more so.

Fact check: Donald Trump's State of the Union address analyzed Tldr: it's full of false or otherwise misleading statements. Surprise!
February 01, 2018 at 12:52
Yeah, the latter is definitely a dingbat.

It's rigged in favour of Augustine!
