At some point, often immediately, it's just not worth arguing with them, any more than it's worth arguing with a 4-year old child. The capacity to relate rationally simply isn't there.

[Devils advocate] Confirmation bias? What if you come into contact with a lot of perfectly normal homeschooled people but the subject never comes up because they're normal?[/DA] On balance, I'm comfortable with my post. See added emphases.

As explained above it wasn't a "voluntary surrender". You utterly do not have the slightest idea what the fuck you're talking about. You're completely ignorant of the subject matter, and publicly making a complete fool of yourself. End of story. .

Except for the part about her being cum laude from Princeton, a Harvard lawyer and marrying a half-white guy. Didn't she have some problems where she "gave up" her right to practice law. Never heard of a doctor or a lawyer giving up their professional credentials. You give up yours? http://www.wnd.com/2009/08/105998/ What do you make of "court ordered inactive status"? Wrong. Again.: http://urbanlegends.about.com/od/barackobama/a/Obama-Law-License.htm Are you and regulator in some sort of competition to see who can act the bigger fool (especially) about Obama on these boards?

Huh?

When you disagree with the president or his staff you are racist

Heh heh. You said "taint". -
Except for the part about her being a Harvard lawyer and marrying a half-white guy. I have met educated people who THINK they are not dumb I've met dumb people who are clueless as to how dumb they are.

Is about half an inch away from being a Nazi. Except for the part where he's Jewish. Hey, no theory's perfect.

...hoping, obviously, to conceal evidence by inducing a heart attack. Sneaky bastard.

The Shomrim-(religious Police) and the lack of media coverage.

The article isn't well-written on that point. NY's citizen's arrest statute is similar to Alabama's. Whuffos. -
Snippity-snip, big guy.

Still arbitrary cherry-picking. Say, for example, if a psychiatrist prescribes cosmetic surgery as therapy for the patient's chronic, life-crippling depression. Then the winner will be he who gets the best doctor's note.

Sounds like a hybrid of a neighborhood watch (with mandatory Zimmerman), the Guardian Angels, the Patriot Riders, the BOD of a condo association, and a neighborhood mah jongg club. -
Or a similar analogy - say, for example, your employer is a Jehova's Witness - will not permit your health insurance to cover blood transfusions if you're in an accident or need surgery, or to cover your doctor's use of platelet-rich plasma treatment on you, etc. As a matter of public policy, this is the problem with allowing employers to cherry-pick the medical procedures for which they will or will not provide insurance coverage, based solely on ideology. At the end of the day, "the line" must be drawn somewhere. As a matter of legal analysis, I cannot imagine the line being drawn in a manner that is not, ultimately, arbitrary and capricious. As for "employers can do what they choose; you don't have to work there if you don't like it" - sorry, but US law has a long history of that type of argument losing out to public policy. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act are but two examples of that. .

Quite simply, the organizers have to carefully vet (if they don't already know) each potential participant's RW/bigway experience and credentials, as well as canopy skills and canopy choice, appropriate to the size of the formation. Tunnel time cannot replicate bigger-way RW, and obviously cannot replicate high-traffic canopy skills.

you 2 are so cute when you're playing nicely.

I'm all out of popcorn. You ever tried Fiddle-Faddle? Stuff's addictive.

Actually, it is stupid, but we lost that argument 20 years ago.
