Interestingly, I was just reading about this - http://gluontheferengi.wordpress.com/2008/02/19/vegetarianism-the-elitist-idealism/ Obviously the article talks about vegetarianism, but the points it makes are applicable to this discussion.

Would you?

No, violence can be justified, I'm just saying that if we keep ramping up the violent response to crime, the criminals will do the same. But while that is acceptable, lying to the public to protect their comrades is wrong, which is what happened in this case.

That would be because they hold a huge amount of power in our society, and so have to be properly accountable for it. I'm not just talking about the police, I mean the whole justice system tries to portray itself as always right, even if that means ruining lives or destroying civil liberties.

Damn! How about you play this whilst watching the video.

But these 'isolated incidents' keep happening. To take things to Britain, where I understand you hail from, there was that picture on the front of The Daily Fail showing a policeman geared up like a soldier - surely violence propagates violence, and in a high stress situation there is a much...

Sensationalism as in showing a video of a man being beaten to death by two police officers who I explicitly stated I condemn alone, and backed up by a massive wall of text with nary an exclamation mark in sight?

So, I just saw this, and after recovering from Kelly Thomas's plaintive cries for mercy, I began to rethink my position on the police. I do not think the use of violence is justified. Seriously. Using guns to fight guns clearly leads to more gun violence. Whilst I accept that the police are...

Um...could I beg a modicum of space for my humble username NikolaiK upon your Wall of Eternity? Please? As long as it's not comic sans I really don't care about the font.

It is now way past my beddybyes time, so I shall say, Lilith Aensland fans are only lolicon if they want to have sex with her because they consider her a child, thank you for debating feminism with me, even if the end was unsatisfying and goodnight and thanks for all the fish.

Strengths and abilities based on... their physical strength! Otherwise known as their... bodies!

No, blindness is staring so hard at your copy of Feminism 101 that you fail to see that you are attempting to link male and white privilege, social darwinism (an idea that is thoroughly discredited) and the desires of 'homosexual, women and non-whites' to a computer simulation of people hitting...

Who exactly is ignoring you?

And comparing fighting games to Nazism isn't an attempt to demonize them. Actually no, not them, but the 'white heteronormative male privileged' gamers that play them. No. I will not stand for reverse discrimination. When you say that every white male has it easier than everyone else on the...

... Projection much? Also, using long words does not make you more clever, or more correct. It sounds, in fact, like you are wildly spouting doctrine in an attempt to make your half formed arguments remotely plausible. Also, yeah, all of the horrible things about the Nazis and the KKK can still...
