ya'll being trolled

Wow I'm out for a week and this topic still going. If you guys/gals haven't noticed Dio is just being a troll. There is nothing you can say that would otherwise change that. The founding fathers could be reincarnated and come out and disagree with Dio, and he'd still keep arguing and trolling. The o...

You are simply wrong about this. The entire purpose of Article II is to insure that the President has not even the slightest allegiance to any other nation. And here is where I destroy your argument completely. Every year there are thousands of babies born at local hospitals near military bases aro...

I stopped reading that link when it got into the "birther" part. Obama could of been born in China and he would of still been eligible, his mother is a US citizen therefor he is a natural born US citizen as are tens of thousands of military babies born all over the world. It was a created issue used...

GIT, Try to think about it the other way. Do you ~want~ it made into a "national" secret? That is very easy to do, only requires the stroke of a pen from the nearest flag officer. I for one would much rather then use the back-door hush method then the official secret hush method, the first being eas...

None of this takes into account the real problem with a currency based on a fixed value. That is banking and lending / investments. A bank would only be able to loan an amount of money equal to a percentage of the value of the bullion in its vault. When applied on a national scale there simply isn't...

Depends on the angle of the impact. You won't literally ping pong around unless your slamming head on into a concrete wall. And while this is possible and does happen the majority of accidents involve non parallel angles of impact. Getting hit on the side won't produce this effect.

Just goes to show that a well designed small car and beat a big SUV in a crash. I personally enjoy driving smaller cars, not eco cards mind you but just fast and maneuverable automobiles. My constant worry is that some idiot driving by themselves in a large SUV while talking on their phone is going ...

Does every new idea that is beyond mere extension of current practice qualify as exceptional per the current church of physics? While I detest the linking of a religious establishment to physics, the answer to your question is yes. Exceptional can be taken to be anything that is new science (vs amp...

Again, you are assuming everyone else in humanity accepts your concern about individual freedoms (Look up European Nobility.) The European Nobility certainly did subscribe to the belief that they were free, it was all those pesky lower peasants that were not. As you can see, forcing others to abide...

In a perfect ultra-humane society you wouldn't need any laws as everyone would respect the wish's of each other and never try to inflict any sort of injury onto another. You wouldn't need a government and the world would be full of these ultra-peaceful lifeforms. Of course you'd be living in a fckin...

Hello all, first time poster but very long time lurker. I decided to create an actual account to post just on this topic as I feel strongly about libertarianism. People often make the mistake of judging an entire concept by the few extremists that are the most vocal. Extreme's of anything is bad and...
