Well, that went…somewhere.

I guess I'll just agree to disagree, rather than insult you.

What Gawker did to him was pretty sh1tty, but it's still worrying when a billionaire decides to use his fortune to bring down a media outlet he doesn't like.

As I said, I didn't read anything in that article that wasn't pretty standard libertarianism out side of the quote about women voting. Given that, I have no real desire to read more of his stuff, since libertarianism, in my opinion, is not a workable system.

I read the whole article that the above quote comes from. It's mostly pretty standard libertarian stuff, which I don't subscribe to.

You can still find it, though. I burned a copy on video CD a few years back.

Record scratch.

It's 15 on the original studio version. Not much of an improvement, though.

That second one's got good taste.

When it comes to rape, though, false accusations are exceedingly rare. What's generally considered to be the most comprehensive study puts the number around 2% and that study still has the caveat that the cops often will call an accusation false just because there's no evidence to support it.

In Ted Nugent's autobiography (which I couldn't read all the way through), he constantly rags on "smelly hippies" that are losers because they do drugs - and then talks about all the terrible struggles that Joe Perry went through because of his disease of addiction.
