So if people have a differing view they're fools? How very Liberal of you. I never realized before that was considered a disability. I've always just thought it was having trouble hearing an individual in a crowded noisy room. Well you learn something new everyday I guess.

Are you asking that seriously? If so then I really feel for you bud. Anyway, in answer to what constitutes either a really bad question or a really defficient understanding of the subject. People are not allowed to carry personal weapons in Canada i.e. you are not allowed to conceal carry. So, if you are not allowed to carry a handgun then why would you be allowed to carry chemical weapons or a Nuclear device. Your question is one of the poorest I've seen yet on these forums.

Ah yes, but a proof is a proof.

Ouch! Thats gonna hurt. After the endless bleating about the heartless cruel Conservatives killing Canadians and not caring at all this is going to be seen as what it is, an outright lie. Of course this was already known but it hadn't been widely diseminated, now it looks like its going to become a little more high profile. Couple that with Dions Academy Award winning performance and I don't think its going to be the Liberals proudest moment come election day.

Perhaps thats what you saw. I saw Dion looking like an idiot. Honestly, I really don't think this will help Dion at all, as for Harper, well he didn't say anything about Dions hearing so I can't see why he could be accused of mocking Dion. He just pointed out that it looked like Dion didn't have a clue. It was a pretty straight forward question after all, not unliike many Dion has been asked in the past, and usually failed to answer sufficiently.

I've seen the video, its quite interesting. A far better movie however is one called suicide killers, I've mentioned it before. They interviewed captive suicide bombers being held in max security Israeli jails. Its really an eye opener, especially when they talk about the real reason they want to do this. I guarantee that at the very least you'll be surprised when you hear the reason coming straight from the mouths of the killers.

You know, I've heard this many times but I've never actually seen it or read it as quoted directly from him. Do you have a link or something that shows this to be true beyond doubt?

From this I take it you are implying that Harper was in Washington with his nose up George Bush's butt when this began. I didn't know that. Could you provide a link to illustrate this please?

C'mon now Guyser. The cancellation of the doomed to failure do everything ships just can't be compared to the Helo cancellation. The Helo cancellation was an incredibly cynical and dumb move to make, the latest cancellation was based upon sound principles, in order to avoid massive cost overuns. If he hadn't cancelled those ill advised ships and gone on with the project despite costs then Harper would have been pilloried by both the press and the public. The Helo cancellation on the other hand ended up costing us 500 mil and quite a few lives of service men, as I said, they can't rationally be compared.

Huh! You censor your own machine? Very bizzare. So, if we hold to your guns are meant only to kill and should be banned point, do we then ban bows and arrows too? After all, the British Long Bow packed more kinetic energy than a modern sporting rifle projectile.

And this is the point that leaves me shaking my head. It baffles me how many posters here appear to want the government to take even more of their money. From what I'm reading it looks like some won't be happy until we just give everything we make to the government. For myself, well, call me selfish but I like being able to keep more of the money I work for instead of giving it to bubble heads who will waste it on dubious social programs.

Hover bicycles. Lots and lots of hover bicycles.

Do you know what its like to be in a place like that? As AG said, the little shit is lucky he's still on the top side of the dirt and not six feet under. Frankly, I feel pretty much the same way about him as I do his sister, just don't give a rats ass about either of them. I reserve my concern for those who are actually worthwhile humans, not bottom feeders like the Khadrs.

Do you realize that once you make an unfounded generalization such as that you have, in effect, conceded your point. As for his sister, well in all honesty I couldn't give a rats ass how long she starves herself for and certainly not about any of the self serving sanctimonious bull she's now spouting to justify the families actions. She wants to starve, well she can just go right ahead and fill er boots.

Are you aware that before you showed up here we had a poster from six nations who would boast about stealing cars and dumping them on the reserve and selling coke? He was a real "a ding dang doo".

Now that would be good, that money could actually be used for something productive instead of disappearing into an endless sinkhole. Out here they do very well from water, wind and oil royalties, I don't think they really need the government handouts. Each person on the Paigan reserve receives something on the order of $1000.00 a month in these royalties. So if you have a family of four that means $4000.00 a month automatically without having to do a stitch of work for it. They sure do drive nice big trucks, until they write them off that is. And if they can get anyone to sell a truck to them, most dealers don't like to though. Quite a few of them buy a vehicle then never pay for it, once they get it back to the reserve there's not a damn thing that can be done to collect the debt that is owed. The rates are even higher on some of the other reserves out here, I believe the rates are higher on the Blood reserve, I'll ask my friend about it next time I see him. Now that's a nice addendum to a pay cheque if you ask me.

Personally I tend to favor those little bits of paper you find in fortune cookies.

In answer to that I would have to straddle the fence. Of course I believe in mandatory sentencing for some crimes, murder, rape, that sort of crime. However I do not support jailing people for minor or innocuse crimes. The whole concept of throwing people in jail for Marijuana related offences stinks. So on that question I have no clear concise answer, I believe the question is far too non specific for a simple yes or no answer.

So, rather than refute any of the points I have raised you instead falsely state that I am supporting some Aryan supporter. Would you care to point out anything I've said that resembles that in any way at all? You wont be able to because I have done no such thing. As for the moderator part, fill yer boots. If calling you on lies and pointing out discrepancies in your posts is a bannable offence then ban away. What is interesting is the fact that when shown to less than honest you retreat into rather feeble threats involving moderators. That certainly backs up everything you've said. Are you now saying that you've never been spoken to about the constant insults you toss around. Therein lies the big difference between you and I. Where I choose to defend myself you apparently choose to run tattle and have others do it for you. Not surprising actually. Now, how about some of those links? Oh yes, don't forget to report me.

Lets break this down piece by piece shall we. First, you are no engineer if you don't even have a clue what a Marine Engineer does, and you are obviously clueless in this regard, amongst many others. So, yet another lie exposed. Next. It appears that now you claim to know the intimate hiring practices of all the major corporations in North America, amazing. Unfortunatelly you're wrong and merely illustrate your ignorance once more. The reason they recruit there is because of the high level of training and education which negates the neccesity to retrain. The actual diametrical opposite of what you claim. Next. You are the one who claimed in another thread that more than 50% of doctors finish in the lower half of their class. when I pointed the impossibility of this out to you you simply retreated and didn't answer. Thus once again proving your lack of knowledge. It was not I who made the error, it was you. will you now attempt to deny that as well? I'm sure others on here remember it, in fact AW pointed it out to you as well as myself. Of course you don't use links, you can't because all you do is post made up bullshit. How can you link to pure fantasy and misinformation as fact? Can't be done. As for the scientific journals, you obviously do not read them or you would be aware that they all have an on line presence, thus links would be availlable. So, another lie exposed. Lastly since you're the one who brought up engineer and anthropologist in the same sentence I guess that means you consider yourself to be a dolt. Thanks for agreeing with me on that point. Now, would you care to continue showing everyone how uninformed and dishonest you are? Or would you rather retreat again with what remains of your much tattered dignity intact?

Exactly, an air burst is far more devastating than a ground level burst. This applies to other devices as well, for instance a fuel air bomb is air burst detonated.

Oh...so you aren't a real engineer after all, you just like to dabble in the sanbox, thought so. That explains why you have no knowledge of the disciplines required for real engineering. Actually I've never pushed dirt around, not too much dirt involved in Marine Engineering, which is what I did before changing trades. Lots of Physics, Math, Chemistry and Thermodynamics though. Once again you oh so boldly flaunt your ignorance for all to see. As I said, your bias and ignorance when it comes to the military is evident for all to see. The simple fact is that major corporations attempt to recruit from the military. If the personnel are inferior as you imply why would they do so, and offer top dollar? Guess they know something you don't, not surprising. A good friend of mine back in the day (also a marine engineer) held two degrees in advanced Mathematics. I'm no slouch but this guy made me look... well... almost like you as far as lack of knowledge is concerned. He must be a real dirt pusher, right? Obviously you're smarter than him, that would explain why you think that 50% is less than half. So anyway, how bout those links? Where are they? P.S. I never realized that six nations had such a large demand for Anthropological Engineers, yeah right.

Actually I was an engineer for many years, this is how I know you're full of it. An Engineer Anthropologist, now I've heard everything. Of course I'll take your claims as the bull they are, your obvious lack of knowledge in scientific and Mathematical area's illustrates more than adequately the falsifications you make. Go ahead, insult military people. The simple fact is that they are more highly trained and proficient in their disciplines than 95% of the population, few private citizens can afford to go to school and train constantly in their fields for 20 years plus. Once again you merely illustrate your prejudices and ignorance by these insults. So now here's a news flash for you with your vast and superior knowledge. The study of mtDNA does not vary or change from application to application. Instead it remains the same from application to application. It doesn't surprise me at all that you would try to compare two totally disparate disciplines as Hawkins theories and the study of mtDNA, each of them are as foreign to each other as the truth is to you. You simply cannot make that comparison in any logical way, I guess that's why it appeals to you. So, you deny all the advances made through the study of mtDNA? I figured you would, thats your way, lie and deny, nice technique. So, where are your links to back up your bull? None forthcoming? Well that's a shocker!

All the above statement proves is that you are woefully ignorant of the subject. Let me guess, you suck as badly at Biology as you do Mathematics, obviously if you seriously made the above statement. The true irony of your post however is the part where you tell others to do some research. I suggest you follow your own advice. If you did you'd discover that this discipline is not "sketchy" at all as you claim it to be. Instead it is a well accepted and widely used branch of the study of DNA and the gene. Further to that you would discover that it is directly credited with major advances in multiple fields. These advances prove by actual results that mtDNA is far from sketchy, unlike your knowledge of science. So, is it your contention that all these professionals who dedicate their lives to such studies are wrong, while you are right? Is it your contention that all the advances that have been made and credited to the study of mtDNA are falsified, while only you know the truth of the matter? As usual a bunch of speculation and opinion from you with no actual knowledge, research or even a link to back it up. This link I'll provide is basically "sandbox" stuff but given your lack of understanding of this subject its probably a good place for you to start. A Good Start Not that I doubt you, but, a link please. I know, I know, providing links is against your code of ethics or something. One once in a while would be nice though.

Denial denial denial. Then a cheap insult Then some made up stuff to support the denials. Then another cheap insult or two to further support the denials and illustrate the obvious (in their mind anyway) superiority of the poster.
