Can you send me a link to where he "beat up" a college kid? I mean, you're using a term that implies physical assault, so I assume that, rather than engaging in intentionally hyperbolic language to errrr rely on emotion to carry your point, you have video of these assaults. You seem to have ignored the part where he routinely offers to debate people who are not "unprepared college kids" - and they decline because they know they will lose. He routinely has people from the other side of the aisle on his show to debate, and they do so civilly and rationally. That's what REAL critical thinkers do.

California SB 219, 1439.51. (a) (5) Willfully and repeatedly fail to use a resident’s preferred name or pronouns after being clearly informed of the preferred name or pronouns. 1439.54. A violation of this chapter shall be treated as a violation under Chapter 2 (commencing with Section 1250), Chapter 2.4 (commencing with Section 1417), or Chapter 3.2 (commencing with Section 1569). - This means a fine of up to $1000 or a year in jail New York City has a similar regulation, but the punishments are much more severe. The Commission can impose civil penalties up to $125,000 for violations, and up to $250,000 for violations that are the result of willful, wanton, or malicious conduct. I'm not a lawyer so it's unclear to me if this would be imposed against the facility or the individual offender. There are doubtless more - these were all I could find with the 5 minutes on Google I allowed myself for research. Those defending these laws claim that it wouldn't be enforced that way, or the legal bar would be very high, but, since it's the state enforcing it on fines, and the state has unlimited legal resources relative to a defendant, that's a pretty hollow claim. That said, I agree that if someone who is obviously a biologically "Bob" wishes to be identified as "Isabella" and asks you to use "her/she", then you're pretty much a j*ck*ss if you refuse, but Isabella needs to understand that when looking at someone with a huge Adam's apple and 3 days of stubble on their cheeks, it's pretty easy to call them "his/he" out of reflex.

I don't always drink beer, but when I do, I prefer vodka.

Why? Because he's a devout Jew who has been routinely called anti-Semitic? Or because he's routinely criticized the "alt-Right" while himself being called a Nazi? Because of his insistence on relying on facts over feelings? Or because he shreds pretty much anyone who debates him, to the extent that even when he offers such giants of the liberal establishment as AOC $10K to debate a position they decline? The biggest problem in the US right now is that both sides are so entrenched in their self-righteous belief in their own infallibility that they dismiss out of hand what the other has to say. That's the worst kind of willful ignorance I know.

Red hats like mine?

As an American, I can reluctantly confirm that the majority is wholly ignorant of anything that hasn't shown up on their "Smart"phone in the last 5 hours.

Just get a job at a geriatric health care place and sign up all the advanced dementia patients for absentee voting, and then vote for them. https://www.inquirer.com/philly/news/vote-fraud-election-seniors-pennsylvania-20171103.html

I bet if you ask most men, they have a name for it, or a former/current lover has given it one. Mine had been Herman, Rudolph, Simba, and, my least favorite, Princess Petunia.

How can cute kittens be a trolling tool? And surely you know I don't care about likes. Scylla, you've become jaded and cynical

What an odd coincidence. My "Johnson" is named Rudolph.

Don't talk about your PM, or don't move to Canada?

You can name any topic and plenty of people will complain and natter on about it - the internet simply makes that worse.

Did Trump get elected King of Canada? Lord knows Mr. Blackface wouldn't do any such thing 😛

Well, looks like Johnson pulled out a huge win. Brexit should be done soon.

Hey, aren't you Canadian? I'll be moving there when I retire (the wife is Canadian) to sponge off your retiree health care system!

Actually, Finland can be credited with giving Stalin a wakeup call as to how madly his military had decayed. Never mess with the Fins (Finns?) in a winter war...

Lots of Americans, notably Patton, weren't happy that the West left Eastern Europe behind the Iron Curtain. One wonders how different things would have turned out had we followed Churchill's advice and pressed harder in Italy and liberated Greece rather than focusing on France. We could have been in Poland, or at least Hungary, before the Soviets then.

I hear that the edge is so sharp, it will cut you in half.

Sorry,. should have been FYUTA. F You Up The A. The WL (without lube) is silent.

When you get back with your tea, send me your RL name, birth date, passport number, credit card number with expiration and CCV, and I'll buy you a ticket where you head East, never West, and eventually return home.

I thought of a couple more: People who come to my sim (or any really good public sim) and complain incessantly about lag. FUTA. I spend $209/mo to provide you with 30,000 prims of glorious fun, buy anything and everything people ask for in terms of games, toys, features, special events etc. and it runs fine on my no-graphics-card laptop using hotel wireless, and you come and blow up local chat complaining about lag, offering suggestions that, golly gee I never thought of, while you're the biggest script and memory hog on the sim and claim it couldn't POSSIBLY have anything to do with your computer or internet service? Anyone who posts "SL Secrets". There is an oxygen shortage on this planet, so kindly stop using any and save it for people who deserve it. Blocking older viewers. I get the need to do it, but MAN is it a pain when the block happens when I am traveling on business and can't get back on SL until I go back to the office and bully IT into letting me load a new viewer on my work laptop. People who ignore the messages that the old viewer is about to be blocked and then throw a hissy fit about the minor inconvenience created by their own sloth. Canadians and how they pronounce words like "hockey". It's not "HAWK-ee"! You don't wear "sawks"! Learn to speak American! The French. They think the entire world revolves around them, and that everyone should know everything that goes on in France and speak French and love France. Who do they think they are, Americans?

This is a really fun thread. I HATE THAT!

Your "history" is a fallacy and your response is a cop out because you know you have no facts that can defend your fallacy.
