Born Free Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 The "IQ of America" has seen it in good stead for many years. However, it definitely seems to be on the decline... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bush_cheney2004 Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 (edited) However, it definitely seems to be on the decline... Decline in what.....Stanley Cups? You'd think that all those super smart Canadian doctors fleeing south would raise the IQ? But then there is Pamela Anderson to bring the score down.

Argus Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 Then I don't see how his speech could be repressed. You mean you don't feel his speech should be repressed, but under the hate speech laws he would, in fact, be charged and convicted for promoting hatred against an identifiable group The actual criminals are the only, well, criminals. They can certainly still be charged, and should be. And would be. Technically, he would also be a criminal for violating the law. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimmy Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 I don't think it would have been trying to censor him, or insult him, or stifle him, or proof of bias against liberals, or any of the other things people have gotten all worked up about regarding Coulter. I think it would have been a very understandable thing if he had been informed ahead of time of Canada's laws. And I doubt he would have gone all ballistic the way Coulter and conservatives have. Elections Canada's core values are to uphold the rules of Canadian elections. The University of Ottawa's core values are, allegedly, to uphold academic freedom. If Houle worked for Elections Canada instead of the University of Ottawa, and if Coulter were visiting during an election campaign, maybe you'd have a point. You say you are defending her right to speak even as you don't like her, knocking people who call her a "blonde bitch" or referring to her Adam's apple, but if she were a liberal, it would be a different story. Let me remind you what you said about Hillary: I found myself unable to relate to that asexual, defeminized woman running around in her shitty lime-green pant-suits and trying to act like an angry little dude with little-man issues. And now Moore is a "fat-assed foreigner," but of course your views/comments aren't partisan at all. I'm partisan, and I don't like Coulter. And I don't care about the personal attacks made against her in this thread. I didn't respond to any of them, and I've made similar cracks in the past. Moore, Hilary, Barack's pipe-cleaner arms, Chretien's mangled grill, Paul Martin's Tic-Tac sized testicles (that's conjecture, not first-hand information...), Harper's chunky ass, and probably many others that I've forgotten. I felt at home making fun of Moore's morbid obesity because that's just the kind of thread it is. Others set the tone long before I did. What about you? I don't recall you chiding anybody for the attacks on Coulter's appearance, but one comment on Moore's weight problems and you jump on it. Perhaps your halo could use a little polishing. -k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
