Is Shodan more retarded lately, or has he maintained a consistent level of retardation all along?

I looked at that thread in its infancy and didn’t see much worth commenting on; apparently it’s worth another look. Stand by…

I admit I laughed my ass off at that. Thanks.

A claim whose veracity is supported by your choice of Bricker as username, rather than something like Omg a Conservative Lawyer (aka a liberal’s WORST NIGHTMARE!!!11 ROTFL).

The modesty really shines through.

If you haven’t already been dragged into it, there’s no point in getting involved now. It’s really pretty strange.

You’re smart, we’re right, sooner or later, you’re ours.

He’s not coming back, is he?

Edit: I was suggesting that he’d get mired in the poop-bog that is that thread, not that he was running from anything. I realized that my meaning would be nebulous.

I suggezt we form a search and rescue team.

That used to be my view on same sex marriage going back a decade or more. But as a liberal, albeit, Christian liberal, I gave the “were just not going to agree” crowd because we’ve never done it that way and its just wrong very little credit. My conservative friends, even lawyers, just had no decent defense in logic of the traditional view. Most of them, especially the divorced and adulterers (sigh), still see it as an attack on the sacred institution of marriage. As my cohort gets older, the ones who never stray pesonally are less bothered by it, as they have always been less bothered by the gay rights movement than the true believers by all forms of liberals.

That line would go over better without your silly ‘gotcha’ games.

Honestly, it doesn’t describe you. You don’t post to show liberals how wrong they are. As you said, you post to sharpen your debating skills, as well as to actually challenge your legitimately held beliefs. You mostly argue in good faith, and not like you are some guy from on high that is going to tell us how we should think.

And, anyways, if it did describe you, that still would be only one piece of evidence I used in my assessment. It wouldn’t necessarily give me a negative opinion of you. I’d be a hypocrite if I said that it was always wrong to make a provocative post solely with the purpose of telling someone they are wrong.
