The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Dope1: I've noticed a tendency here among The Natives to not bother even *trying* to debate anything.

That's more projection than an IMAX theater.

I always list and quote each of your bits of nonsense and provide my response. Goofyhoofy always does the same and sheila727 as well. As for sano, well, he's clearly had his fill of righty nonsense.

dope1: Your source bad!

Well, umm, many of your sources are garbage and I've provided links to Media Bias Fact Check as evidence of that fact.

dope1: Nuh, uh!

Nobody does that.

dope1: But Twumppp!

If pertinent to the discussion, why wouldn't someone mention Trump? This election is a binary choice. When addressing any issue, a logical debate will include both men.

Dope1: Or just changing the subject.

High crime rates in blue areas, cultural rot, and now pedo's mainstreamed via legislation. They own it and they're afraid to say'they like it.


Wow, there's that IMAX projection... and look, YOU JUST CHANGED THE SUBJECT.

Now the facts: crime is highly correlated to poverty and funding, not politics.

In response to critics who say the murder rates in red states are high because of 'blue' cities run by Democrats (such as St. Louis and Kansas City in Missouri or New Orleans in Louisiana), Kessler said the list does not change if the county that contains the largest city in each state is removed from the data. He also argues that in many red states, Democratic-leaning areas often are starved for funding, making it harder to combat crime.

Your effort to paint all liberals and democrats as pedophiliacs based on ONE SINGLE STATE LEGISLATOR'S amendment (that will never pass) is as absurd as it is desperate... but that's the way the right rolls.
