I honestly can't tell if he's joking. I mean if he is, he's fucking hilarious. If not, well

Platinum - treat others the way they would like to be treated (the PC rule)
You guys realize this is dread yanking your chain, right?
Faith is Hope (see Loki's sig for details)
If hindsight is 20-20, why is it so often ignored?

In the future, the Berlin wall will be a mile high, and made of steel. You too will be made to crawl, to lick children's blood from jackboots. There will be no creativity, only productivity. Instead of love there will be fear and distrust, instead of surrender there will be submission. Contact will be replaced with isolation, and joy with shame. Hope will cease to exist as a concept. The Earth will be covered with steel and concrete. There will be an electronic policeman in every head. Your children will be born in chains, live only to serve, and die in anguish and ignorance.
The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference.
Fry em. Might want to wait until he turns 18, its inefficient but less whining about it.
What the Fuck is it with you and "frying"? Is it just Hank Hill and Texas? Why don't you want to shoot people? Do you want them to suffer? You might want to opt for botched hangings, instead, or drawing their intestines out slowly.

Touche.
But Lewk won't respond to that. In his world, white collar crime isn't about bad corporate behavior, or innocent victims. Just free marketeers looking for profits, and stupid people who deserve what they get if they get fleeced.
Hank Hill would only advocate using the finest propane for frying.
He also won't touch the BP issue with a ten foot pole.
. . .
Duly noted.Lewkowskians would rather lay blame on the people building homes below sea level in the Port of New Orleans. Somehow they're stupid for being close to an important commercial hub, with promises of safe harbor from our Army Corps of Engineers. Then, when they get flooded, he can bitch about FEMA. But he never says a damn thing about the civic or national duty a big oil company has, when its operations off-shore can impact a whole nation. How convenient?
No, he's been consistently been against government legislating morality.
Congratulations America
No, he's been consistently against government. There IS a difference.
No, he hasn't.
Hope is the denial of reality
I think Lewk has consistently posted with a general anti-government sentiment, until it suits his agenda. From public education to environmental legislation, he claims to want government to butt out. But he's more than willing to say government should be pro-death penalty, pro-property rights, pro-gun, and pro-militia. Which would mean he's fine with government legislating morality, as long as it fits his own. Feel free to tell me how I'm wrong.No, he hasn't.
I.E. He isn't explicitly anti-government.
Except for your death penalty example, all of those positions are consistent with wanting to minimize the role of the government...
Hope is the denial of reality
Okay, that makes sense for Lewk as one example.I.E. He isn't explicitly anti-government.
Except for your death penalty example, all of those positions are consistent with wanting to minimize the role of the government...
But when does minimizing the role of government become anti-government? Y'know, the Reagan mantra that says when the government comes to help, they really hurt, because gummint is the real enemy.....
Not the DP. There's little that is more pro-government than allowing them t legally kill citizens. He's also anti-choice, meaning that he wants government control over a woman's uterus.I.E. He isn't explicitly anti-government.
Except for your death penalty example, all of those positions are consistent with wanting to minimize the role of the government...
If he believes abortion is murder, that would not be an inconsistent position. Different values do conflict with one another, you know.
Hope is the denial of reality
The truth is he wants God to take control of the woman's uterus. But since God won't, he and his fellows feel the government should do it. It's like Islamic extremists and Allah. They believe Allah's angry and mean as hell to the unbelievers. But since Allah never does anything to unbelievers, they just do it themselves, then attribute all their successes to Him.
