  Re: Go ahead, make my day!
 
(...) If you were foolish enough to actually *say* that during jury selection. I think I have the whole "sheep" thing down (or so I think), along with the "maneuver one's self to be the foreman once deliberations start" which is also very useful, (...)

  Re: Go ahead, make my day!
 
(...) By the way--no lawyer worth his shinola would allow you to remain on that jury, of course. (...) So you are in fact advocating the falsification of a crime scene? I trust, than, that if you get into a fistfight and accidentally kill your (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: National vote on handguns?
 
(...) You are, no doubt, referring to *genetic* individualism rather than some boogie-man "cloned mind" scenario, since I'm sure you're aware that identical twins are not the same individual, and also that clones would likewise be two (or two (...)

  Re: Go ahead, make my day!
 
(...) Nope, I'd accept that - I mean like calling someone and asking them to come over, shooting them, then going out front and kicking in the door to make it look like a burglary. -- Tom Stangl ***(URL) Visual FAQ home ***(URL) Bay Area DSMs (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: National vote on handguns?

  Re: A Brave New World
 
(...) Via Canada, but ya. I won't smoke them, though, too iffy on how they were made and whose pockets get lined from the sales. (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Handgun Death Rate
 
(...) I must have missed the film. But that is what *YOU* seem to be saying. (...) Guns are a very popular luxury indeed. And so are telephones and automobiles. All of which have some very serious uses. (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: National vote on handguns?
 
(...) Actually, the reason it *doesn't* make sense is that you require a 75% consensus. In a group of just 12 people it's hard to get 75% agreement on what kind of pizza to get; do you honestly expect that *any* issue, when put before a vote by the (...)

  Re: A Brave New World
 
(...) True, but then again I'd like to see how it fared if all the trade embargoes were lifted. It's not like Cuba has any effect on US oil production or anything. Just think, you'd all be able to get those big chunky cigars cheaper, without having (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: A Brave New World
 
(...) And up until then, you assumed this trait was limited to cabbies in NYC? (Hey - I'm only taking the line I've been fed here). P.S. to everyone else - not everyone in the UK has a cockney accent either. (...) Oh, right. We group geography and (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: A Brave New World
 
(...) Unless humanity was transplanted on Earth rather than evolving naturally, or was created by a divine entity, then yes, there is a way to live in harmony with the environment. (...) SUV's only need a clean fuel source, not really a big deal (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Protect the easily offended:ban everything!
 
What is the purpose behind firearms? 1. To threat someone/protect yourself 2. To wound someone/protect yourself 3. To kill someone/protect yourself Are there others? /J "Harvey Henkelman" <HarveyHenkelman@webtv.net> wrote in message (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
