"Kansas has found the ultimate way to punish the poor"

[Berzerker]

Nobody's arguing they should get bailed out of jail.

Thats nice, but if nobody's making that argument why are you bringing it up? Should people have to pay you to keep booze legal because alcoholics hurt you?

I'll seek it from the organization trying to grant them amnesty. They are paying the price, in jail. If you are letting them out then I should be recompensated for my losses.

What organization seeks amnesty for the person who stole from you?

So slavery is just like smoking dope then. Either drop the analogy or admit that they are the same. Most progressives tie whatever progressive clause they are arguing for today to slavery.

I didn't say smoking dope is just like slavery, thats usually an argument made by people on your side of the debate. You said laws must be followed and I asked if you would have followed slavery laws.

still nothing but crickets

Why should I pay up to someone who's unwilling to pay me?

So you wont pay the victims of your family's crimes because they owe you?

You support a ban on pot, the person who stole your property was merely being compensated for the harm you did to them. If they were Irish, they were being compensated for the harm your ancestors did to theirs. Hell, the English have many victims throughout the world. Quite a few people in line waiting for you to compensate them. How are you liking collective guilt?

That's what legalization is, Berz.

You brought up slavery, Berz.

Just fine. Nobody pays each other a dime.

I believe laws should be followed. Do you?

Laws should be justified before they are followed... Would you turn in your neighbors for helping runaway slaves under the Fugitive Slave Act? Would you inform the Roman authorities about Christians?

That was the first time I mentioned slavery and it was in response to your assertion laws should be followed... I was showing you dont really believe laws should be followed.

Should people have to pay you to keep booze legal because alcoholics hurt you? Should you compensate the victims of alcohol and tobacco if you support their legality?

And if your family harmed Irish people and you're responsible, how did your victims end up owing you anything? Nobody pays a dime means you aint paying the people you owe.

It's necessary in order for Aeson to realize just how poisonous Ben is to this place.

[rah]

I'm sure he's equally poisonous to anything that he is associated with.

[N35t0r]

Aeson is getting rich from the apparent increased traffic. I don't think he cares.

[rah]

Rich is a relative term.

Well, he does live in the Phillipines

[Dinner]

He is an evil white colonialist. Taking land from the natives and boning their women.

[Aeson]

Yes, Ben's posts are funding a landgrab in a Catholic country by an agnostic heathen. That should make him feel all warm and tingly ...

I have the appropriate disgust for white men who have sex with brown women.

What level of disgust is that?
