Winchester Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 [quote name='catholicinsd' post='1105412' date='Oct 30 2006, 05:14 PM'] Drug use is wreckless stuidity, and you are in favor of death for that. [/quote] Drug trafficking and drug use aren't synonymous. But to go with what I said: Drug traffickers aren't stupid in the same sense as some idiot who fires his gun, unknowingly in the air. That's why we have malevolent and stupid as separate words. Nevertheless, you asked why I was so trigger happy. I'm assuming you based that on something. I think it's your negative stereotypes of conservatives, a group you have apparently lumped me into. Again, define conservative. If you can't, then say so.

[/quote] Wrigley has some of their corporate offices on the floor above ours, and I ride the shuttle bus to the train station with some of them, and I hear that Wrigley is fighting legislation that will allow Singaporese to sue Wrigley over deaths caused by shooting Wrigely spearmint gum into the air recklessly (although a compromise might be reached on Juicy Fruit).

[/quote] I'm a conservative and I'm against the death penalty, in favor of moderate gun laws, against furthering the war effort... Conservative means that a person wants to conserve the way things are...traditional values and rights. Liberal means that a person wants things to be free and open (although most liberals are in favor of more restrictions). [quote name='catholicinsd' post='1106029' date='Oct 31 2006, 01:12 PM'] Yes, but there are some things that we must change. [/quote] Of course. Virtually everyone believes that.

Guest T-Bone Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 Because we don't beleive they are all that unjust.
