If it was so effective a method to communicate, you would not fear so much the costs of hate speech lawsuits.

By remaining in Sudan, this man does something better than what he could never do in Canada: he is sacrificing a part of himself to the cause of Canada national security.

Anyone who doesn't consider him/herself a terrorist is not really in touch with what it is to be a human being. Someone who stops talking while in presence of others soon becomes terrorizing to these people.

Another vexed questions is raised by UCLA professor Mark Kleiman, one of the more thoughtful experts on drug policy today. Basically, he's a liberal. "Criminal punishment of marijuana use does not appear to be justified," he maintains. But legalization has big problems too. "Full commercial legalization of cannabis, on the model now applied to alcohol, would vastly increase the cannabis-abuse problem by giving the marketing geniuses who have done such a fine job persuading children to smoke tobacco, drink to excess and super-size themselves another vice to foster," he argues.

Pirates are a growing solution. Without piracy, kids would die at sea trying to reach clandestinely Europe.

At this point, Harper should ask "this man" how much money he would ask to stay in his country of origin and if the amount is too high Harper should let "this man" in the situation he is in right now.

Ayn Rand, John Locke, and Thomas Hobbes wholly agree with eyeball since they have all developed sophisticated conceptions of enlightened self-interest.

Exactly! Some animals see an enemy when they look at themselves in a mirror.

You don't seem to be interested to find where to draw the line about hate speech and defamation.

One doesn't escape easily mental problems when s/he was born and rise in a dysfunctional family such as the USA.

Even Omar Al Bashir, President of Sudan, doesn't fly farther than to countries next door countries because he doesn't want to be taken to the International Criminal Court. Meanwhile Stephanie Jodoin, the Canadian aid worker in Sudan, is still held hostage. The Harper government would love to see her put in a airplane to fly back to Canada.

The USA have let so much genies get out of their bottles. Terror was in the Pandora's Box opened by the USA.

As a global capitalist, at the helm of a Media Empire, Black had no national allegiances, no home.

The Original Sin is what we create ourselves. That is why the role of fathers and grandfathers is to castrate their sons. Christianity goes much farther by praying for everyone to be struck by God.

Britain had only lack originality, because Pax Romana was the only grandiose model, it created a Pax Britanica. USA, with its Pax Americana, is also now paying for the same lack of originally.

Never forget, Al Qaeda is a USA artifact originating in the Cold War.

Chances are that Black will be remember as a biographer who had an strange attraction to megalomaniacs men.

All to the contrary. We can distinguish in between capitalists and socialists by looking at the two different attitudes the personages in the movie Alien have toward the highly aggressive extraterrestrial parasite which stalks and kills the crew of a spaceship. Capitalists want to convince the crew to bring this creature on Earth because it has a high potential to allow them to suck life out of every life forms and the crew (the social formation) wants to kill it.

Catching one of them is better than catching none.

UK is the perfect exemplification of how terror is an internal phenomenon. Muslims in the UK are admitted in England mainly because the Middle East used to be inside the British Empire.

I don't think Black would receive as much visits from Barbara if he was jailed in a cold place like Canada.

I posted these quotes only to break the prejudice that wants to keep connected the Left and (higher) education.

For Zizek, Jesus as both God and man is a parallax. So, for him there can be connection, but no common ground.

I see Jesus in Steven and Judah in Sarah.

It would be all very good if only human beings were not unconscioulsy projecting upon others parts of themselves that they can't stand.
