Yes but at a certain point the chances of surviving an operation and living X number of years is significantly lower than just keeping the old ticker around and taking your chances with it. I think that's what she meant when she asked why he was allowed to have the transplant.

"I don't care because the most sexual partners you have, the better lover you are!"

That awkward, nervous time between sending an email and getting a response of some kind.

Replying to promote. The stock image is rather stereotypical and ignorant.

Well it's pretty clear that Ravi doesn't really care about what he did, just that he got in shit for it.

The Americentrism wasn't solely the description of the jail: it was the use of the (unsubstantiated) description (along with other things) to frame Canada as being the "bad guy" with evil people and deplorable conditions versus the American "good guy" (Matheson).

Look, I'm not sure what you are trying to argue here.

Then perhaps instead of stating positively that "guards teased him" you should write "Matheson claims that the guards teased him" and do other similar edits so that it's clear that what Matheson alleges is not cold hard fact.

I think there's somewhat of a difference between an journalistic investigation and printing hearsay as fact to support the framing of a story. Sort of different circumstances.

"The subject of this thread is the manga's status as child pornography. Your arguments about preserving the peace are the ones out of context. We are arguing that since there are no real people involved, labeling it as child pornography is inaccurate."

"It's not encouraging the sexualization of children—any more than TV or movie violence encourages violence."

" I would probably volunteer my privacy away if I thought that there was nothing to hide."

Well, that's one argument. Part of me agrees that it's better that no actual children are harmed. But the counter-argument is that it still encourages the sexualization of children, of course, and that's something that collective society has deemed harmful.

Well of course it's not inconceivable (is anything?), but to print it as if it's fact is rather disingenuous and biased.

He consented to the search. There was no invasion.

You're just arguing semantics. The fact remains that common law in Canada is in place to preserve the Queen's peace: it's NOT a metaphoric, roundabout explanation. The fact remains that there is an argument to be made that depictions of sexualized children is harmful to society.

"If I get caught shoplifting, the storeowner isn't going to call the police because society is at risk; it's to protect his business."

"There are no people involved here, ergo their representations cannot be of "a person under the age of eighteen years", because there's no "person" involved. and if they are "people" in the context of their fictional environment, then their age in that fictional environment must equally be taken into account (cref.…

"cause that's about how generic "to protect the peace" is."

Only if you live on the east coast.
