Nope. Because I'm not violent. Do you agree with incarceration rates in the U.S.? Do you agree with all the scandal in politics? Do you agree with bipartisanship? That a nation of many many diverse backgrounds and ideologies are sorted into only two major parties? A nation constantly involved in military conflict? Over criminalization of non violent crimes? My god, if you love our government you must be blind.

I am not blind, I have a laundry list of bullshit I object to. I also have a long list of things I am in favor of. What I wILill not do is make a blanket statement condemning every politician and all the good things that our government made possible. You want to act the fool and make stupid blanket comments then I will have fun winding you up.

Edited by Roronoa Zoro (Timelost): 4/26/2015 9:04:08 PMHas it really come down to the fact that I said "hate"? You have nothing to object to other than word choice? This whole argument began with you telling people exercising their freedom of speech to leave the country. You won't debate me on this. Instead you focus your attention on my choice of the word "hate". With that, I am muting you. You are thick headed and actively choose not to speak to me on the reason we are debating in the first place. I don't envy you for your ability to blindly love the land you live in because you were born there. Edit: just noted your clan on Destiny is "a bunch of aszholes". How fitting lol.

Yeah clan is fitting. But seriously "hate" sucks. It is also inflammatory. There is nothing that can be accomplished when your believe is so negative. If you were to concede that not all people and policies in our government are worthy of hatred I would show you respect other wise you are part of the problem in my eyes.

Where did I say that I smoke cannabis? Please grow up and stop labeling me with no proof.
-
Tell me don't partake. I know quite a few anti goverment potheads and they all sound just like you. They even use the same phase "over criminalization on non violent crimes" (smoking weed). Not that big of a deal in my opinion. Who really cares is someone wants to smoke a joint. Currently the law of the land outlaws it so If you go to jail you have no one to blame but yourself. I fact if it was legal in my state I would be smoking it right now, but I have a family and a career I would rather not lose to smoke a little weed.
-
But I never mentioned cannabis, you labeled me as such. That is your fault. Whether I do or don't is unknown to you. Non violent crimes also include theft as well, why not label me a thief?
-
Sorry did that offend? Maybe you shouldn't label someone a douche bag and then act offended when someone labels you? Might gain a bit of respect if you acknowledged that part.
-
..... But you were acting like a douchebag. And saying douchebag things. I was acting like someone willing to debate political views. Yet all you do is label me a pot head and complain about my word choices...
-
How do you debate when the first thing you say is douchebag?
-
You say "I am not a douchebag, although the above statement I made was, in fact douchy. Now that we have put that aside, here I believe..."
-
I can be a douchebag. In fact I am doing it right now. The difference is I am doing it intentionally.
-
So was I wrong to call you a douchebag if you admit to it? I never admired to being a pot head or a thief or anything you have labeled me as and I have not given you a single reason to believe that. But you only wish to argue semantics. Goodbye.
-
Never called you a thief. Pothead and nut job yes.
-
But I gave you just as much reason to call me a thief as I did a nut job or a pot head. Exactly none.
-
I hate the government and anyone who disagrees is a douchebag. Marvrl at my ability to debate political views

Drops mic

Touchy much

What are you doing to stop or change it is the real question.
-
He's doing it right now. The problem is cultural, and will only change when the people do.
-
But how is he changing the government is what the question implied

I currently have a group at my library who discuss and debate current events and I also write my representatives frequently. I speak with my pocket and my vote, however little it may be its more than most Americans do sadly.
-
Not to get in the way but there are other levels than hate and love. Both extremes are usually wrong and not selected from logic.

Thank you Spock.
