Philip S.,

I have already answered this response of yours on
another discussion. You are just out to provoke
here. Either that or you really have a serious
problem with comprehension. Either way - I
don't have the time or the crayons to explain things to
you any further.

Foxy You are a hypocrite you put the same link up on 2 threads so I replied to the 2 links you put up on each threads

And you come back with this "You are just out to provoke here."

** therefore the exact same could be used to describe your actions of putting the same link on 2 threads. **

** Foxy logic, I can do it you can't. **

Foxy logic will be an ongoing feature on OLO.

In my own family there is a spectrum of political opinion. All are good people with good intentions from my perspective. I think the line crossed when you think your opinions unchallengeable and believe those opposing them to be malevolent and pernicious.

Fester,
Agree, however, when you debate with people who on principle will not accept fact & logic then the best way is to walk away but watch them catching themselves out !

We all get things wrong. Scientists, working with facts and logic, will expect that nearly all their assumptions and predictions will be wrong. What I like to think is that even those with opinions I disagree with strongly are acting from a benevolent standpoint. The gunman in Christchurch felt he was acting for the public good. The 100 million plus murders in the name of socialist regimes were committed by people with similar motivation. Identity politics can have horrific consequences.

Fester,
I'm afraid I can't get myself to subscribe to that assumption. My perception is that he just had a gutful of the nonsensical, biased, excuses, failings of authorities & the general pussy-footing that our society has been subjected to by academic invented & pushed PC.
A society with a Justice & social system which harbours the perpetrator & persecutes the victim.
