My M1 carbine, because it has a a 25 round magazine and a rack that a bayonet could be mounted on(an accessory I don't have, and see no reason to buy) was banned under the law. But, I still have it. It's from WWII, and for the last twelve years it wa...  [Read More]

As I said, I'd start a debate on the issues revolving around the Virginia Tech shooting. Things have started to die down and emotions aren't as raw as they were during the first two/three days and I think we're mature enough for a debate. The events...  [Read More]

It would be a mistake to dismiss Russia out of hand. First, while many Soviet era nukes are apparently missing (other things as well probably), they no doubt have enough control to be dangerous. I have no doubt that they still possess quite an arsen...  [Read More]

I'd bet that Russia is still a force to be reckoned with, however. It got China as an ally, which is nice. It owns a lot of oil fields, and it makes deal with the third-world nations to get their assistance and aid. So the EU's angered? Fine. Start t...  [Read More]

Hmmm... From what I know, life is better now then it was a few years ago in Russia. The newer generations are getting used to the freedoms. Mainly, it's the old folks who had total social safety back under the communist dictatorship that feel like s...  [Read More]

Why is that so hard to believe? Jimbo and I are very happy even after 17 years, and it's only gotten better with time. Some things you can't learn until you've been with someone intimately for a long time. We're still learning new subtle things about...  [Read More]

I'd like to pop in and make a small comment about statistics and the chances for event X to happen. We know STDs are more common among promiscuous people. Fact. However, we must be careful about one thing. I'll take false numbers to illustrate my po...  [Read More]

Also, lukeiamyourdad's quote in favor of my statement. (post #14) It is true that there's more homosexuals who have HIV/AIDS but to properly quote me, you would have to add the other part: But it's no different then if I went to Africa and had sex...  [Read More]

So even if that was true it should be cured because...? I believe homosexuals who engage in homosexual activities are well aware of the dangers. So gays and lesbians have a hormonal disorder that causes no physical problem, only emotional and psychol...  [Read More]

The important thing is not whether humans are inherently equal between themselves, it might never happen. There will be rich and poor, success stories and flops. However, the chances to move from one social "rank" to another must be equal....  [Read More]

Globization, liberal democracy, the idea of tolerance and society, everything, is all social constructs. I don't see how a social construct can be "objective" at all. Ok, politics is the relations of power between the individuals in a soci...  [Read More]

They are artifical, and they do exist, but even with that, you are telling me that one artitifcal construct is better than another artifical construct. They both are artitifical constructs, and really, neither is objective. You can prefer one or the...  [Read More]

Somehow, if you are going to call race "artifical", you may as well question every "artifical" construct as well, like, say, the United States of America. Where is proof that the USA really exist? It does not. No country exist rea...  [Read More]

Well, from what I know, the Flemish movement is a minority, at least for now. There's actually a very incredible separation of powers in the Belgian federation. I'm pretty certain the more radicals will never be satisfied until a total split but we'l...  [Read More]

My guess on this matter is the change of the nature of the war. No longer is it an army against another one on an open field. They simply can't predict where the next suicide bombing takes place, as such, they have no use. And mur'phon said it best,...  [Read More]
