Lower speed doesn’t cause the accidents, variation in the speed of the drivers does. The very fact that assholes can’t just follow the rules and end up driving as fast as their feely weelys tell them is safe is what leads to accidents. You don’t create laws AROUND assholes, you create laws to PUNISH assholes.

Exactly. These idiots want to tailor the law around the fact that people will break it, rather than around punishing those who do.

Your husband is a living Portlandia sketch.

So if you’re walking through a dangerous neighborhood with a lot of cash and someone who knows yells out “HEY EVERYONE, THIS GUYS GOT A SHITLOAD OF MONEY ON HIM!”, is he in no way responsible if you get robbed? Can we not call him a dick for announcing that to everyone?

Catalysto was attempting to make Point A. You INSIST that he was attempting to make Point B.

“Since we’ve reached that juncture of internet commentary where you’re telling me what I “really” mean”

And yet you ARE arguing against that, in the form is arguing that their analogy was not perfect.

Lets go back to the ant analogy, but add a bit of detail.

So your point is that his analogy isn’t absolutely perfect? I’m sure if ants had some sort of technology equivalent to electronics, he’d be able to refine the analogy.

You’re missing the forest for the trees here man.

Not nearly as ridiculous as the “Green Energy industry” straw man though.

“When I was in school the world’s leading authorities said we were going to have another ice age.”



No they weren’t.

I am in no way a NASCAR fan but even I know this.

To reiterate:

Wait... The person snarking on others to ‘try harder” is admonishing me for snarking? And implying that said snark is a sign that they have nothing useful to say?

God, you’re a graceful loser aren’t you?

More wild tangents? K.

And now you’re going off on wild tangents? I was kidding about the meds thing at first, but you really do seem to have some sort of mental issues. Get help.

No, the crazy part comes from assuming that the only possible explanation for people not agreeing with you is that it must be one person making multiple sock puppet accounts.

Haha, bet your dumb ass didn’t expect to get called out on your idiocy. Go to bed, you’ve got school in the morning.
