When I talk from what I know, you criticize me for not citing sources. So I cite a source, and you criticize me for backing up what I know with a reliable source.
Hypocrisy, much?
|
How can you accuse people of not thinking?
1. Im not making fun of you for using sources.
You google slavery in the constitution and then you ask me if i have taken a US history class  . I dont know if youre question is insinuating an insult, but to answer your question, Im sure everyone takes US history somewhere between 1-12 grade.
|
If I brought google up was because I felt you were trying to make fun of me for not knowing my us history when you rely on google to make an argument.
and FYI citing implies you gave credit to the source of the information. Right? all I see is a quote which I helped you understand more clearly.

I don't think we need to continue talking about the history of constitution/slavery/whatever, it has derailed far too much. Can we just agree that slavery is bad, and humans were selfish to support it? People like to deny rights to others if it doesn't effect them or anyone they care for. The south supporting slavery proved this.
|
you brought it up Im just trying to help you understand it a little better.
|
I used an example that is hopefully universally accepted(that slavery was morally corrupt and the product of human selfishness) to prove that humans do not care for the rights of others they don't care about. I didn't intend for it to derail.
|
you used a bad example
|
I don't see how its easy to "live in harmony with our community/society" when people are so hateful and wishing to deny rights. We're incarcerating people for victimless crimes, which wastes hard earned money that's collected in the form of taxes used to fund prisons. Not only are you ruining these people's lives for things that don't harm anyone else, just because you dislike them, but you're wasting the hard work of law abiding citizens.

its funny how you cant distinguish between a fraction of a right. Not restricting people their RIGHT to draw, restricting some of the content theyre drawing is more like it. You make it sound like theyre taking all of their "rights" (remember society dictates whats wrong or bad).
Extreme example: Why cant I walk butt naked around the city? I should have the freedom to do that since Im not hurting anyone. Thats one of your victim less crimes. Can I show up at your house butt naked just to say hi? After all if it was that bad they wouldnt allow nudist beaches(not sure if they have nudist beaches in America).

I don't like the idea of 30% of my paycheck going to Uncle Sam just so they can waste it on things that don't do good. It's a waste of resources.

please dont get me started on government spending, im wicked smart when it comes to that too. :0
