  1. A gun should never be fired (or even aimed,) at something you are not willing to destroy, or someone you are not willing to kill. Rubber bullets might not lead to death in most cases, but if you are not seeking to kill, firearms are probably not the correct tool for the job. My opinion. Others will vary. FallRate
  2. Trolling is a violaton of the rules. FallRate
  3. I tried to put it politely when I asked: "Should a moderator be so partisan?" Well, back to the basics... Greenies shouldn't troll. FallRate
  4. Mustard, Kraut & Hot Peppers / Both parties suck ass. FallRate
  5. I suppose we should just ignore lyme disease and hope it goes away. FallRate
  6. Technical Details on the link lists fuel consumption as l/100km...but the font on the site makes it look exactly like 1/100km. Decameters didn't make much sense. FallRate
  7. Tried to figure it out. I give up. What is the fuel consumption on that car? FallRate
  8. I make no claims of authenticity as regards the given data. I checked Quade's post and if you take the five month average for '04, then 15% of the total oil consumed in the US is imported from the Arab OPEC suppliers. I would say that is fairly close to 11%. That is, if total imports accounted for 60% of consumption. FallRate
  9. So if imports account for 60% then the oil imported from the Middle East is 11.1% of the total we consume. Who said 11%? You're owed beer. FallRate
  10. Should a moderator be so partisan!? FallRate
  11. The rule of thumb is to add a couple of posts for the number of times it will be pointed out that it's a repost. FallRate
  12. Is there a "somebody in the GOP" who was responsible for dictating to Ron Reagan what he should believe!? Or is it too much to expect that he would have his own convictions? And if he had supported the GOP it would be easy to predict that the Left would chastise him as "having been mindlessly groomed to fill his Father's shoes. FallRate
  13. Anvil's statement was not an "allegation of illiteracy". You should read it again. Your decision to ban Anvil was arbitrary and obtuse. By the way... Sangiro's selected definition of trolling: "A post (on a newsgroup, or other forum) thought to be intended to incite controversy or conflict or cause annoyance or offense." This post was an attack that could easily be taken personally and it's specific purpose was to incite controversy and cause offense: it was a troll. If you want to enforce the rules, you should probably acquaint yourself with them. FallRate
  14. 2% pales in comparison to the numbers Perot actually received in '92 (18.87%). If he hadn't run then, Clinton would hold a position in history right next to Dukakis and Mondale. FallRate
  15. Unfortunately, the issue has become entirely partisan. These quotes have been posted before and represent little more than the fact that these men stand for nothing, except for holding office. FallRate
  16. That is a glaring inconsistency on the part of the FCC. FallRate
  17. If that did happen, it is not what is being discussed here. She made a point to walk back to the reporter and say that he was putting words in her mouth, before telling him to "shove it". FallRate
  18. The most contentious clauses in the Patriot Act are set to expire on December 31, 2005. While a group of ten Republicans in the Senate have put forth a bill to make these permanent, it is a measure that does not seem to have sufficient support overall. So it does appear that the Patriot Act will fade away. www.epic.org/privacy/terrorism/usapatriot/RL32186.pdf FallRate
  19. I did. He didn't. But then it's not like she spit on him. I doubt he'll cry himself to sleep. Still, it's interesting. More so than listening to Gore whine about winning the popular vote and losing the election...again. FallRate
  20. The article doesn't say whether or not the mother sought child support or if the State was acting independently. Hmm...I guess this would support an opinion that the mother was actively seeking support. Sucks to be that guy. FallRate
  21. Yeah, like you didn't see it coming! FallRate
  22. Considering the cost of watching a movie at the theatre, buying the DVD, any DVD, tends to make sense. FallRate
