> [@Sciency](#): > > We have been using the wrong methods to fight terrorism so far. Bombing them, getting angry, profiling, etc. So what if we instead sent all our women to those countries and have them do what they do best? [This is what I’m talking about](http://www.nikolaomontaya.com/west-will-crush-islam/) 😃 Remember who we’re fighting – for “honey trap” tactics, wouldn’t it be better to send boys? [rimshot] ---

Well I can imagine a bunch of cleaning ladies offering “extras” can greatly affect an army of thirsty soldiers. ---

> [@Czarcasm](#): > > Y’know, **Drunky** , I’m generally against the idea of having a “thumbs up/thumbs down” option on this board, but I could see why you could find it very useful. That way, you could just a post a thumb instead of going through the trouble of saying the same stupid thing someone already said. I wish there was a thumbs up/thumbs down option on this board.

_taps board_ Sorry everyone, there seems to be a malfunction. Someone has posted up a thread with a horrible link (intended as parody - but a parody of a feminism that doesn’t exist) saying that all women should be sent to fight wars because then the women could, while being raped, obviously, nag their menfolk so much that they will then choose death. And the person who posted saying that instead idiots should be sent to war, with a specific reference to the thread they start, is the target of every single post afterwards? WTF happened? ---

Well put. I suspect most didn’t want to feed the trollish OP. A few had a hard-on for Czarcasm, and felt the need to express their obsessions. Gang, he’s just not that into you. ---

Because Czarcasm is an unapologetic idiot who shits on every thread he happens to find, regardless of how much opprobrium they deserve. And he chose to post in The Pit, so people can respond appropriately to him. If anything, Czarcasm doesn’t receive enough shit back for all the shit he flings towards others. ---
