  Re: Rolling Blackouts
 
(...) Naw, he want's oil prices to skyrocket. You (okay, the American people rejected him, but there he is) elect oilmen, what do you expect? When re-election time comes, he's going to find out all those California businesses that saw their profits (...) (23 years ago, 10-May-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Sticking my gun where it doesn't belong...
 
(...) "Insisting" is not a word that I think the NRA would use or want you to use. "Insisting" would means that they back mandatory gun safety courses as a precursor to gun ownership, something I don't believe they back (they want no impediments to (...)

  Re: Question for the Conservatives out there
 
(...) It's clear? Did he mean Marshal Law the comic? Martial law? I'm so confused... ;-) (...) I think Dave!'s scenario implies a longer term than "a few days", otherwise there isn't a lot of point to the question. Basically John is restating the (...)

  Re: Tolerance...Dave Schuler are you out there?
 
(...) If you preach tolerance, it pretty much mean you are against intolerance. If you want to play a semantics games and call that intolerance of intolerance, I'm sure that one could make an interesting debate of it, but generally, the argument is (...)

  Re: Plagarism in Fantasy Novels? (was Re: Harry Potter?)
 
(...) Tolkien pretty much did his thing for self-satisfaction rather than packaging something to be "sold" to a popular audience. In any case, Tolkien was interested more in mythology than actual history. I saw Inventing the Middle Ages on a (...) (24 years ago, 22-Mar-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: National vote on handguns?
 
(...) Yes, and you get to shoot those kind of people. I wasn't arguing that. Just blasting away is on dangerous legal grounds is what I was talking about. Odds are you can get away with it. Odds are you were right. But there are enough dead innocent (...) (23 years ago, 23-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: The War That Never Ends
 
(...) Bad example. How did Thomas Jefferson deal with stateless terrorists? He increased the power of centralized government, raised a navy, and went to war. The Barbary Pirates (ummmm specifically the Corsairs of Tripoli) were seizing ships and (...) (21 years ago, 2-Aug-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)

  Re: It's scarier if he actually believes his own nonsense.
 
(...) No! Really? And you think I would have known that with those really obvious question marks at the ends of the lines! ;-) There were those in Britain that *wanted* to believe that (whether they actually believed it I couldn't say). I only quote (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: codifying marriage on biblical principles
 
(...) I'm saying that your examples are the exact same as the model you are criticizing. You cite three supporting people (from a single source: Lugnet) as an example of a more believable evidence, and I'll I am doing is pointing out that that is (...)

  Re: Trying to understand
 
(...) I'll clarify my point if it was a little murky: Frank stated the purpose of the 2nd amendment was for the populace to keep the government in check (or words to that effect). That may have have been in part what the 2nd amendment is about, but (...) (25 years ago, 16-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Why is AIDS such a big deal?

Yeah, I know, a provocative and somewhat cynical statement designed to drive art historians nuts (it helps to be familiar with the French Academie and the Impressionist movement). There isn't a (...)
