No, I didn't answer your question because it was stupid.

You made up two limited choices from Chuck's question, not based upon anything I answered or said. Chucks question was a circular, unanswerable straw man to start with. You demanded I answer A or B. You are so narrow minded you never considered there could be a C. So I ignored your stupid question.

So don't get all insulting and huffy with me, loser.

That's a good debate skill. If someone asks you a tough question, refuse to answer and use the excsue that "the question was stupid".

What a load of crap. You guys routinely make absurd straw men up out of thin air, create false assumptions about what other people think or say about it, then diss them for it :D

Yeah, you guys are the rocket scientists of debate skills :tro:

If I am walking my dog at midnight, will I be more concerned if:

A. A youn man in baggy pants is approaching me
B. An 80 year old lady is approaching me

You say I should have considered that there could be an answer "C". I don't think there could be an answer "C". What would "C" be?

Let me guess, you refuse to answer that question too.

It is a good debate skill, to ignore the nonsensical.

But, hey, you keep making more posts having a fight with the imaginary me about what you guess I think about old ladies, males, females and violent crime - even though I never commented at all on this thread about it, and you don't have a clue what I think about it :tro:

Cause long posts like you wrote, above, arguing with me about something I never answered, paragraph after paragraph, really make you look .... good.

You say I don't have a clue what you think. I know exactly what you think and everyone else on this board knows what you think. You're not kidding anyone. You're not hard to read.

Your silence tells me more than anything. You are usually not shy about giving your opinion. When you are shy, the reason is obvious. You will never an answer a question that exposes your hypocrisy. You're not kidding anyone.

Most obviously, you don't have a clue.

You're projecting from your own reality. Not mine.

And I wouldn't be so quick to include "everyone else on this board". Some of you guys really go out on a limb, assuming you know what everybody else here thinks.

I've observed your posting behavior for a long time and you are as predictable as a clock. If answering a question will undermine your argument, you refuse to answer. That is one of the main reasons that you are so unpopular here.

The question I asked you was quite relevant to the subject being discussed. The subject being discussed was whether or not it is appropriate and even normal to have reactions to people based on their appearance. I think it is appropriate and normal and we all do it every day.

Well, to some, I guess it's really important to be popular.

Who are you trying to justify your behaviour and thoughts about Muslims to - me or you?

"Be impeccable with your word. Speak with integrity."

"You may be proud you're a prick, but remember - you're still probably only half the size you think you are".

I wasn't saying that "everyone on the board" knows what you think about everything. I was saying that "everyone on the board" knows what you think about this particular question.

I don't think you could find 1 person out of 100 that wouldn't think that a young man in baggy pants is usually more of a threat than an 80 year old lady. Everyone has the same opinion about that. We all know your opinion about that much in the same that we know you believe the world is round. Even though I've never asked you if you think the world is round, we know you think the world is round because everyone knows the world is round.

Anyway, it's funny that you won't admit that you would be more fearful of a young man in baggy pants than an 80 year old lady. You won't admit it because you think it would make you look hypocritical since you have given others a hard time about judging people based on their appearance.

I refuse to answer whether (all things being equal) I would be more fearful of a person in Muslim garb than a person in normal attire on an airplane.

You don't know what I think. I've never answered that question.

Ha ha. I'm giving you a taste of your own medicine.

You're really spinning out of control now. It's pretty fun to watch. Have you had your rabies vaccination this year?

I shouldn't have used the word "popular". I should have used the word "respected". If a person is intellectually "honest", I think they will be respected whether they are liberal or conservative.

Alas, if only I asked you that question!

Ewww - kinda creepy, that you followed me to yet another thread, just so you can make a snarky comment?

Well, I hope it made you feel better about yourself :tro:

hiiiiiiiii wench! Sorry.... I meant hiiii Beth!! I see you are doing wonderful in yet another thread! Hope you have a great evening!

There it is. The victim routine. That's rich.

Where's Coach? Don't you guys have to compare penis sizes now?
