Re: Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse

First off, it is not hundreds of occupied homes. It is more like 10-30. Secondly, the vent shaft won’t ventilate much of anything. It is primarily an escape shaft. None of the trains produce exhaust, that is why they are electric. Thirdly, who cares what the racial makeup of the school is, it is a ...

Re: Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse

Re: Should negligent parents be punished by the law?

This thread is meant for discussion as detailed in my original post about parents who choose to conceive a child. Anything else is off-topic. You claimed that people who choose to conceive a child out of wedlock are criminally negligent due to the harm that befalls children who are raised in single...

Re: Should negligent parents be punished by the law?

So basically anyone who has a child out-of-wedlock regardless of the circumstances you want to prosecute due to harm to the child? got it. However... I'm going to repeat something I told you earlier: Comparing an adoptive parent or parents taking an unwanted child and giving them a loving, safe home...

Re: Should negligent parents be punished by the law?

Because you have been incoherent as to the exact act that you wish to make criminal and what kind of punishment you are contemplating. I haven't been incoherent at all. I said that I think choosing to create a child outside of wedlock is a selfish, despicable, and criminally negligent act. Is there...

Re: Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse

Is there a reason that a train tunnel that goes UNDER people's communities is a problem? I would think it kind of depends on how it is constructed. If it is a shallow "cut and cover" type of tunnel then we are talking about perhaps half a decade of severe disruption of a community and lot...

Re: Is it wrong to use nuclear bombs against civilians?

Why pick that as the start of the WW2 rather than also include the actions of the surrounding nations after WW1 including the land grabs and economic policies that fomented the economic difficulty and unrest in Germany? There has never been a single moment in human history when there were no groups...

Re: Poll: Putin and Ukraine

Honestly, the port and buffer against NATO seem like the only legitimate claims from a secular perspective. We can argue all day over what NATO was intending but I listened to his speech on weapons and it was a fairly logical case for invasion. De-nazification? Yeah right… To be fair, Ukraine has o...

Re: Poll: Putin and Ukraine

What isn't true? That Russia invaded because Ukraine was persecuting Russian speakers. They overwhelmingly elected one. It's not like anybody suggested that Ukraine was persecuting Russian speakers, let alone arguing that that was the reason Russia invaded. That was, in fact, the exact claim made b...
