Get over it!!!

If you have nothing of substance to say about the issues ---move on. Life is short!
Back in those days, Goldwater made a statement to the affect that the owner of a business had the right to not serve a customer based upon the race of that customer.

I will spend some time tonight or tomorrow and see if I can find a quote.

The point he was trying to make, I believe, was that many times when you give one person more rights, it is at the cost of rights of others: one gains, one loses.

What crowd is that? I put no one on "ignore", myself, certainly not because I disagree on some issues, but you do what you must.
I had no idea I was so intimidating.

So now "rights" are some limited quantifiable thing??

Goldwater was clear---he objected to section 2--he thought it was attempting to legislate peoples feelings---he was a libertarian and had big problems with this!

You can read ron paul and find similar arguments.

why did you post the other crap if the support was not there JD?

NAME the poster you thought was so fucking stupid that they would fall for that please!

"Those two"? What "two"?
I speak, and argue, only for myself.
Perhaps "those two" all look alike to you.
