In turn it would be even more rewarding to see you get castrated by one of those unfortunate parents.

Castration?!  That's the thanks I get for answering your question?   Shocked

Heh, looks like I touched a nerve.  Poor little rage machine.   Grin 

Taking responsibility for the terrible consequences of poor decisions is hard, isn't it?

We all know you'd never have the courage to share your immoral opinion with Mrs. Herman or Sarah McKinley, demanding to their face they be disarmed victims.

It's obvious why the heroic home invasion survivors would take offense to you telling them they should have just surrendered to their fate, and left their children in harm's way.

So as a deflection, you wish random harm on me.  Odd that you fixate on my genitals.  Get some help and see a therapist please.  Creep.

Noone except the law enforcement should be allowed to carry weapons...

If i have the chance and time to shoot 6 bullets in head and NECK of someone else i cant be in mortal danger - hence the use of arms is unjustified.


What a fascinating opintion you have.  Why don't you share it with Mrs. Herman and Sarah McKinley, the ladies from the OP?

Tell single teen mom Sarah McKinley, whose husband died of cancer on Christmas, that her child should be an orphan.  Tell her that her orphaned child's last memoir of his mother should be her screaming on a 911 tape as she's raped and murdered by her hunting knife carrying stalker.  Because only the police should have weapons, dontcha know?

And also tell Mrs. Herman that the last time her 9 year old twins see her alive should be while a home invader does god-knows-what to her.  Because it shooting a home invader after retreating to a closet is unjustified, naturally.

Please LMK ahead of time so I can laugh at you as they let you have exactly what you're asking for.   Grin

Quote from: iCEBREAKER

If you refuse to protect your kids from harm (including becoming orphans), you are the shittiest failed parent ever.
And what about introducing your kids to harm? (hint: recent school shooting).

The school failed to act 'in loco parentis.'  The parents failed by sending their kids to unsafe public schools (AKA shittiest substitute parents ever) run by libtards who think 'no guns allowed' signs actually work.

I'd like to see you meet a survivor of home invasions from the OP and be all "You had no right to save your life and defend your children using a weaoon.  Because Sandy Hook and stuff."

It would be really funny to watch you get your face smashed in by a justifiably furious hero mom.   Cheesy

This kind of thing is why I empathise with the gun owners out there way more than gun control people

All the confusing statistics and endless abstract debate in the world will never convince the all-too-numerous emotion-based sheeple who fear guns and want only cradle-to-grave security. 

A different approach is required for the dim, irrational types:

To control the narrative and reclaim the moral high ground from the gun grabbers, we must rely on incidents such as these to illustrate the starkly asinine amorality of disarming law-abiding citizens.  Especially mothers defending their children, which no can dispute without looking idiotic at best and evil at worst.

Remember the names of these home invasion survivors and throw them in the face of the statists.  Their stories are our best weapons to fight and win the emotional battle for hearts and minds.

Preparing for disaster provokes it

What absolute nonsense!   Roll Eyes

Does my silver stack cause Helicopter Ben to print money?  NO!

Does my emergency water supply cause earthquakes and hurricanes?  NO!

Did having a gun cause these (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=135084.msg1438485#msg1438485) mothers' homes to be invaded, or save their children? 

Weakness invites aggression.  Always has, always will. 

Peace through strength is the way to go.   Cool

How dare anyone suggest people don't have the right to keep and bear arms?

I'd love to see them suggest such a thing to Mrs. Herman and Sarah McKinley.  But they won't, because they basically are complete and total cowards.

Nice one. Though I'd just like to point out that not all British citizens are quite as hopeless as you make out (in the same was that many US citizens actually are). Worth bearing in mind that Washington was, at one point, a colonel in the British army.

Yes, many Brits resent their gormless peers and envy the freedom enjoyed across the pond.  Some even move here, acquire citizenship, and appear on American Guns.   Grin  Good for them!

Also, many Americans are as pitiful as any helpless Euroweenie and spend their time strenuously objecting to the Liberty secured by their forefathers.  It's sad.

Good point about Gen. Washington, it really emphasizes how important it is for individuals to choose rebellion to tyrants and fight until free, or die trying.

Here a couple more memes for ya:

I made a new account and never enabled an offline pool.

Offline pool (BTCGuild) doesn't show any shares submitted.

Yet Hashpower shows 3,134 Offline?  WTF?  Where are 1% of my shares going?

At least rejects are low.   Undecided

9711  Other / Politics & Society / Re: In the gun debate who do you think is the most stupid? on: January 06, 2013, 01:13:24 AM
Well i think the whole premise of the gun debate wether who is more stupid is wrong  i think a better question to answer is "Who is more right". I actually think that is more constructive question to ask as people can come forth with an argument. . I think the most imortand reason why people should beable to bear arms or own a gun is to beable to defend themselfs or be able to fight back from a government  if it  becomes too tyranical.  What i understand it is  the reason  the second amendment was put there in the first place .
 I think the right of the american people to practice the 2nd amendment  has  has never had more value meaning or importance  in the whole history of the American time period. 

All of this is true.  But the OP doesn't want a better question or a constructive argument.  It's just a cowardly way to replace discussion of important matters with mere ridicule.  Very Jon Stewart, as he stated.

The most ridiculous idea is that free, rugged individual Americans would care about our UK/Euroweenie cousins' worthless bien pensant opinions regarding personal liberty and the force multiplying hardware that originally won and ultimately defend it.

When they see fit to stand on their own as sovereign people instead of subjects to hereditary Monarchs, we can have a worthwhile conversation.

Meanwhile, it is an exercise in futility to attempt explaining concepts so far beyond their experience and comprehension.

All they have ever known is generations lived as serfs or vassals controlled by their owner, the Queen, and master, the State.  You'd have better luck teaching quantum cosmology to a jellyfish!

Here is their ruler, resplendent in Her Royal Crown and Scepter:

Quote
"Thou Shalt Not Bear Arms, you spineless bloody peasant worm.  Off with your head!"

Here is our ruler, resplendent in its Bill of Rights:

Quote
"the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed"

0% rejects is not possible on stratum, much less LP...   Huh

Good job starting yet another thread to ask a question that's been hashed out numerous times already.   Roll Eyes

Its crazy to blame an inanimate object and not the individual. I also don't see why anyone would want to give up anymore rights to the state.

You are of course correct.  That's why the poll is 2-1 in favor of recognizing the stupidity of the asinine gun-grabbers.  They should go to DailyKos or something.

I have three requests:

1) enable 24hr earnings

2) enable auto and/or manual payout

3) define "worker efficiency" or just use standard stale/dupe/other

Everything else is fine.  Don't care about GBT, Stratum works great.

a tool is morally neutral and the user determines the use of it

Try to understand:
A gun shoots projectiles. That's all it does, that's all it's designed to do.
A club hits things. That's all it does, that's all it's designed to do.
A knife cuts things. That's all it does, that's all it's designed to do.

Some people use guns to kill people. Some people use guns to protect their families.
Some people use clubs to kill people. Some people use clubs to hit leather-wrapped balls.
Some people use knives to kill people. Some people use knives to cut their meat.

This is hopeless.  You're not dealing with a rational post-enlightenment mind capable of being persuaded by facts and logic.

FirstAssScent is a superstitious primitive, living a demon-haunted world where inanimate objects possess intentions and control human behavior.

davout. seriously. put your professional hat on and refrain from profanities.

you are no longer another armchair activist, or a personal investor.

you are now a financial services provider. you need to adjust your professionalism accordingly.

the key point is:
you do not want mainstream media quoting the only customer contact of bitcoin central to be from someone shouting obscenities.

I don't think Davout can help himself; he's pretty much a professional asshat.   Tongue
