  Re: What am I missing here?
 
(...) And yet you both found it necessary to say that it's pointless and ask that people stop. I'd say that people that are taking the time and energy to actually post about it are finding some value in it, whatever that may be (and beleive me, I'm (...)

  Re: What am I missing here?
 
(...) *Sigh* I'm not telling anyone what they should and shouldn't do, nor is Larry; in fact, I'm enjoying the debate insofar as I recognize it to be insoluble. However, Larry and I are pointing out (correctly, I might add) that the argument will (...) (24 years ago, 13-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Spot Pole - Is Gore Just a Bad Loser?
 
John DiRienzo wrote in message ... (...) he (...) Well this just isn't accurate. You only have to go back to the 1960 race to find a case that proves this wrong. Vice President Richard M.

  Re: Handling of Prisoners?
 
(...) It is demonstrable that the cost of putting a prisoner to death (after weighing the costs of appeals et al) greatly exceeds the cost of imprisoning that same prisoner for life; the argument that execution saves money is flawed. It is, by the (...) (24 years ago, 13-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: What am I missing here?
 
(...) All right, what's the deal? Lar made a general call for forbearance on The Abortion Debate (a good call, since no one is going to be swayed one way or the other) and there have subsequently been more posts than before Lar's request.

Thanks James, You kinda scare me when you start off with the word Simple... none of this has seemed simple yet, and if it's so simple to someone else, I question whether they have given it enough thought. However, thats a pretty good point that I (...) (24 years ago, 13-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: From Harry Browne
 
(...) There are some interesting things to explore here. I agree that a "viability" test is certainly part of the rights based calculus which should be used to evaluate these things. One way to examine the issue is that the unborn baby only has the (...) (24 years ago, 13-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
