  Re: From Harry Browne
 
(...) I too think that. Self defense doesn't even need to go to court. (...) Your opinion is noted and disagreed with. For two reasons: First, I think there is nothing inherently wrong with vigilante justice, if it is rightly applied. And I'll be (...) (24 years ago, 18-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Rumor control?
 
(...) Well, all I can say to that is look out for Hillary! for prez in '04 (why does she get to use an exclamation point?? is it because the mere mention of her name is scary?) If you thought the conspiracy theorists were having fun now, just wait. (...) (24 years ago, 18-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Rumor control?
 
(...) Now THAT'S hitting below the belt. :-) We got railroaded in NY when the Howard Stern fan club took over the convention and nominated him for Gov but that's a pretty big exception (and we changed the convention rules to prevent that from (...)

  Re: Rumor control?
 
(...) And I'm sure Republicans always probe their candidates fully... I'm not even sure that I trust that some Libertarians don't follow the herd sometimes. Frank (24 years ago, 18-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: CODE WORD TIME
 
(...) I saw an e-mail today which described how the ballots looked when in the machines. Apparently some ballots lined up fairly well, and others didn't at all. With all due respect, I'm unwilling to call people stupid without having seen the actual (...) (24 years ago, 18-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: From Harry Browne
 
(...) I think there's a big difference between an act of self defense, and chasing someone down after the fact. Vigilante justice should not be tolerated. I know that it is a very fine line, but my feeling is that once a perpetrator is leaving the (...) (24 years ago, 18-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Rumor control?
 
(...) Oh, you know--that durned Clinton and his gas tax are so bad that the honest working man can't even drive his own car anymore! Dave! (24 years ago, 18-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Lets keep politics out of Lego
 
Gerry, Ok, I'm not going to debate that there are several oddities that have sprung up that seem to help both candidtaes in all kinds of ways. I also agree that after the final recount, Bush will be the winner. But I think it is silly to say that (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Lets keep politics out of Lego
 
(...) Pat, The way this whole thing got started was someone took something fun that I do for my Brickbay store personal. The original comment about being crazy was nothing more then a joke. Lets discuss what makes America a great country. Everyone (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: From Harry Browne
 
(...) Hi Frank, When you say that I approve of "the death pnealty" it sounds like you're talking about a court-ordered penalty. I don't believe that courts should pass out death. Ever. Really! One of my stances is this: Government (at all, I mean as (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Boy sues (and wins) for NOT being aborted
 
(...) Well, sort of. A statement of certitude differs from an expression of opinion in that certitude implies fact or truth. Had you said "I think that even though this boy..." it would have expressed your opinion and eliminated any need for (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Lets keep politics out of Lego
 
Ok, I'd like to express a few things here. 1. Gerry your original post was in bad taste, have a enough sense to admit it. 2. The first state wide recount was not initiated by The democratic party, it was started as a result of Florida state law. 3. (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Lets keep politics out of Lego
 
(...) We would never resort to nuclear weapons - The Republic of Texas is gonna give 'em a good ol' fashioned butt-whipping. Which reminds me of a funny Letterman Top-10 List that I recall from many years ago: The Number One Reason Why Las Vegas is (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Lets keep politics out of Lego
 
(...) Oh? Why not? My mother-in-law is a Texan. The defense rests triumphantly! :-) I didn't insult the state, I just insulted the politicians. Feel free to substitute whatever state you like - the key word is "politician". There are four kind of (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Boy sues (and wins) for NOT being aborted
 
(...) Kinda like what you just did with that statement, eh? Liberals and conservatives alike will often say whatever they think it will take to "win" the point or at least get the goat of the other guy. Both sides indulge in name-calling and (...)

  Re: Lets keep politics out of Lego
 
(...) There's a difference? :-) Wait, what did Rhode Island do? Note that France seems to be rather disliked by a lot of countries, note the admonition in that UK Revokation that we were to nuke France at the slightest provocation... Why is that? (...)

  Re: Lets keep politics out of Lego
 
(...) Ok...Texas Republican into the fray...LBJ was a bad apple, but no need to insult the whole state. Anyway...doesn't matter. If Bush loses, we're gonna exercise our right to cede from the Union, and the first order of business will be to declare (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: CODE WORD TIME
 
(...) Wow, Dave, you're certainly attacking everything today aren't you!? Here too, you're missing the point, 1st off - this whole circus has an element of humor to it which I'm taking advantage of. No then, my assertion is merely that anyone who (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Boy sues (and wins) for NOT being aborted
 
(...) No, not true. I, at least, preface my opinions with 'I', to not my opinions You, have felt it neccessarily to use insult, though. ("naive") Unfortunately, this is a time-tested liberal tactic, and I can expose it. Liberal tactic #1 - Resort to (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: CODE WORD TIME
 
(...) See, the thing is that many Republicans express themselves eloquently and without making themselves sound like self-righteous children. Those are the Republicans who demonstrate themselves and their ideas to be worth of respect and (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
