Either of you ever bother to talk with someone who disagrees with you as opposed to being arrogant and condescending and preaching at them? Ever take the time to get to know them and maybe find out what they really think instead of assigning bs?

Naahhh what am I saying? That was dumb idea sorry. Keep hating.

As a serious libtard I do make an effort. It's often difficult because I have no morals.

Yea nice try. You can choose to wallow in that all you like but at the end of the day it really is the problem. The idea that others who disagree are stupid and evil not just Americans with different opinions is very harmful and we see the results of that line of thinking every day.

No one side has a monopoly on this by the way. It is pretty universally bad.

Danny, have you seen anyone cursing Prometheus or taking out their anger on an oil lamp? Just hot air streaming, no dialectic, no rhetoric.

There is no point in discussions between people who KNOW the other is Wicked or a Rube.

Well Yea that is kind of the point I'm making. I think ideas need to be discussed not argued.

I think political rancor by both parties has been ratcheted up way too high. It was a call to energize the base and now it is out of control.

A mid term where one party is trying to scare everyone into "imagine what you lose if THEY take power" as the centrepiece of their "message" is just such a bad sign.

There is no point; we're demonized. Nobody discusses with demons. At best you can try to save our souls.

In this case the question is not about imagined afterlife but actual habitat for ones kin.
It's all about being right while not discussing the warrant for claim of rights.

I don’t hate anybody for not believing in GW or dismissing it as “a natural cycle.”

I save my hatred for racists, bigots and misanthropes.

Good plan. Be no better than them. Lets just keep piling that up and see how it all works out.

I’m sorry. Am I supposed to love people who hurt other people and deny them their rights? I don’t do what they do. I don’t work to have them oppressed ordehumanized based on who they are. But I can’t like them! All right?

Ed you can hate whoever you like. Good plan more hate. Fight fire with fire and all that. (In spite of the fact that any firefighter will tell you in general water is a much more effective tool for that particular job.)

Somehow in your mind the solution to gun violence is less guns, and the solution to people who hate is even more hate. Again good plan.

It's getting colder here - rumor has it there will be a mini-ice age for a few months ... cyclical phenomenon called winter. Supposedly after that's done there will be global warming for a few months that happens so often it's called summer.

It's so much nicer when season changes are greeted with festivals rather than old-school apocalyptic hysteria drives.

Good, pithy response.

All right. What’s YOUR solution to people who hate? What response do YOU recommend to people who beat minorities or pass laws to restrict their rights?

Incidentally, I have never said “less guns” was the answer. I have said that better educated gun owners is the answer. It might have helped at the birthday party in Texas that ended with four people dead! (Or maybe not, but at least it would be an attempt.)

My answer is certainly not hate. Actually it is the same as your alleged gun position. Education. It is hard for hate and racism to exist in an educated mind.

Which is my point about not demonizing other opinions. Educate them.

Every great society in the history of man thrived because of slavery or slave-wages. The wealthy and educated-classes have always understood that cheap-labor is the surest route to profit.
If racism and degradation were required to subjugate the workforce, so be it. Profit above all.

The demonizing is not of opinions; it is of the people.
It is due to my lack of morals and brainwashing that I have my opinions.

@Tom, Would you address this one? I can't paraphrase Matthew effectively and would wind up quoting that song from South Pacific. Tom?
