  1. This is the second step in the process to stifle free speech and to enact blasphemy laws which seem to only include Islam.

  2. Sorry, it's the airline's own problem. If they need to get crew somewhere and they don't have space on one of their commercial flights, they can arrange for a private flight. Kicking off paid passengers to compensate for poor business planning is not acceptable.

  3. Yes... anyone who dares not comply with any arbitrary command from their masters should be promptly beaten into submission.

  4. Remember, Osama Bin Laden was one of those mercenaries back in the day. Supporting him turned out well. :/

  5. This change is sort of changing the behaviour of forum posts to more resemble twitter. People are more likely doing short and simple posts and less likely to post longer and more in depth posts since short simple posts are less likely to have mistakes that you won't be able to correct due to the banning of editing posts. If I wanted to do political discussions in a twitter format, I would use twitter. One of the advantages of a forum format is that it is supposed to allow for more in depth discussion, but getting rid of post editing eliminates one of the main advantages of a forum format. I don't really get how 1 person (cybercoma I think) going on 1 post deletion spree in the 10+ years this forum has been around justifies eliminating one of the most essential features of any forum, post editing. The fix is worse than the problem.

  6. This is the first time I am posting on this topic... I think it is absurd to deny that holocaust ever happened. If some people want to deny it that is their opinion and they sure are entitled to it. I know this is a very sensitive subject... IMO, there should be an open discussion for everyone (including those who deny or have reservations about holocaust) to share their thoughts. People are entitled to their opinions and the merits of their arguments can be judged by everyone else. In some countries it is not even allowed to open discussion about this subject. I think creating that perception of censorship or that which makes it forbidden to talk about Holocaust is quite a dangerous path we are following.

  7. Be careful of what you wish for. I worked for twenty plus years to become Prime Minister of Canada and if it were not for a small obstacle (not enough votes or support) I would be Prime Minister now. We would have the fourth largest military in the world, and a defined benefit pension for everyone administered by CPP (and the highest taxes in the world). Thank your lucky stars the good people of the Kootenay-East- Revelstoke Progressive Conservative riding association lacked the vision to nominate me. You have no idea of what a bad PM can be.
