    Great website, that's how I picked 12 A & B on the Thai 345 from JFK to BKK this September!!

    I am no fan of Bush, but I was wondering the same thing.

    bye bye

    They have to be profitable, not efficient. Those two concepts are not the same.

    The statement is correct. I agree with you that it doesn't show correlation. Why are you and kennedy having such a hard time understanding the difference? I'll repeat part of my reponse in post 95 you mention: I agree with you, though fact remains that those countries with strict gun laws tend to fair better. Hence my answer to Kennedy as to why anti-gun groups tend to react with the proposal of stricter gun laws. (since both you and Kennedy seem to have trouble doing this, note that I am giving my opinion on a behaviour, not the validity of that behaviour).

    This statement is not correct. Lets say the statement is: this years crop yilded more apples. One cannot prove that statement false by saying that there were fewer red apples.

    Excellent, then everybody can testify truthfully and everybody goes on with life.

    No crime has been committed as in, the people who did the firing had the right to do so. A crime may have been committed when it comes to timing and reasoning. If not a crime, it may have been highly inappropriate and punishable under codes of ethics etc. All completely different things.

    Crime rates in western countries with strict gun laws are generally not better than crime rates in countries with lacks gun laws?
  11. SkyDekker
    You asked my why a certain group does something. I gave you my opinion on that. Your reply is directed to the thought process of the group you asked me about. Those two are seperate issues.
  12. SkyDekker
    That's a different statement. I said the following: try and spot the difference. My original statement is true.

    Take Barcelona over Madrid. La Sagrada Familia alone is worth it.

    Because countries with strict gun control laws have lower crime rates. However, at some point there might be deminishing returns, or other variables have become much stronger, at a certain level of control cultural leanings might come more into play.
  15. SkyDekker
    Except that crime rates in western countries with significant restrictions are generally better than crime rates in western countries with more lacks gun laws.

    Does the concept of preconceived notion mean anything to you? Gun crime and the rate at which it occurs has more variables than just the availability of legal guns. If you see that in the same light as aliens attacking and birds conspiring against humans, I would strongly suggest upping the meds.

    So, this lying under oath stuff had nothing to do about a BJ? Thta whole episode made the US the laughing stock of the international community. In the end all of that was done under oath though, something the Bush Administration seems very afraid of, being sworn to tell the truth.

    The investigations should be for the right reason? if a blowjob was good enough reason a couple of years ago, then pretty much anything is fair game now.
  19. SkyDekker
    I agree.
  20. SkyDekker
    Right, all mentally retarded people are stupid, but not all stupid people are mentally retarded. I agree.
  21. SkyDekker
    So what is the currently acceptable PC "name" for somebody suffering from mental retardation? Would that person not be mentally retarded?
  22. SkyDekker
    Right, which would be fine with guns as well. Ie put it in the trunk of the car until on private property and if not licensed. You are leaving out the insurance requirement though. Put that in and I agree with you. And there is a limit on performance used when you are on public roads.
  23. SkyDekker
    Right, just need the license to use it (and proof of insurance) I would personally not have an issue with doing the exact same for guns.
  24. SkyDekker
    Would you feel the same if the sign had some of the more steamier passages of Lolita writen on it, highlighting the sexual arousal given by a 12 year old girl? Or maybe the students own version of the same book?

    I think that history shows that the firing of US Attorneys at the start of term of a new President is "normal" and expected. Both Republican and Democrat presidents have done so in recent history. The firing of a large group in mid-term during the second term of a president is not "normal" and not something that has happened before. Whether or not the President is a Republican or a Democrat I think it raises enough questions that it should be looked into.
