Yes, having facts backing up what you say is a good thing, however, posting just articles and saying "yeah..." and not paraphrasing and putting in your own thoughts and ideas is inane and proves nothing.

I come here to be challenged and to learn, I do not come for petty, elitists who treat people's opinions, experiences and ideas as less than worthy of this place.

I find it funny that they will complain about threads but post in them.

If the thread isn't a gun control fight or a Bush sucks fight..... it has to become one. Facts be damned people's feelings be damned the true OP be damned.....

You don't like the post or poster you put them on ignore..... you don't attack them, it's juvenile and shows no class.

You want to debate, great. You want to teach great. You want to attack and fight, I feel you should take it elswhere where it's acceptable or everyone agrees 100% with you and never doubts your sources or has sources of there own to disprove your sources.

It's about growth and learning..... I thank God I am not as militant about my views as I was 15 years ago, Hell, 3 years ago in some aspects. Because, all militant does is make the other side militant and compromise, respect and the working together that is necessary to run this country goes out the window. All you are left with is hatred, distrust and anger. Nothing but negativity.
