Yes, everything thinks like you do. You know how everyone else thinks. If others say they do not think like you, you say they are denying.

Little superior of you, don't you think?
You obviously are "completely flummoxed by our debate skills" and that is why you refused to answer my question.

You're not kidding anyone on this board. Every single person on this board knows that you are full of crap. That is why we all give you a hard time. We don't give you a hard time because of your views. I don't have a problem with the other liberals on this board. At least I can have a discussion with them. If I ask them a question, they will give me an honest answer, unlike you. You refuse to answer any question that will hurt your argument.

The reason you refused to answer the question was obvious. The question was going to expose you for the fraud that you are.

Any person with a brain knows that the vast majority of violent crime is committed by males rather than females. And anybody with half a brain knows that most violent crimes are committed by young people rather than by an 80 year old person. So the least likely person to be mugged by would be an old lady. The most likely person to be mugged by would be a young man.

That is why anyone with a brain would be more fearful of a young man in baggy pants than an 80 year old lady. Nobody would be afraid to admit it either. Being aware of a fact does not make a person prejudice. Knowing that men committ more violent crime than women does not make me a sexist. It is a fact that men committ more violent crime than women. So all things being equal, I would be in more danger if a man was approaching me than a woman. Being aware of this does not make me a sexist.

By the same token, being aware that the vast majority of terrorism is perpetrated by Muslims does not make someone a bigot. You love to accuse everyone of being bigots and racists. Yet the truth of the matter is that you make the same judgements as everyone sle does. Like everyone else, you would obviously be more fearful of a young man in baggy pants than an 80 year old lady, but you won't admit it because if you admitted it that would show what a hypocrite you are. I mean you can't say that it's ok to have a certain reaction to people based on their sex and age but not their religion.

Game, set, match!

No, I didn't answer your question because it was stupid.

You made up two limited choices from Chuck's question, not based upon anything I answered or said. Chucks question was a circular, unanswerable straw man to start with. You demanded I answer A or B. You are so narrow minded you never considered there could be a C. So I ignored your stupid question.

So don't get all insulting and huffy with me, loser.

That's a good debate skill. If someone asks you a tough question, refuse to answer and use the excsue that "the question was stupid".

It is a good debate skill, to ignore the nonsensical.

But, hey, you keep making more posts having a fight with the imaginary me about what you guess I think about old ladies, males, females and violent crime - even though I never commented at all on this thread about it, and you don't have a clue what I think about it

Cause long posts like you wrote, above, arguing with me about something I never answered, paragraph after paragraph, really make you look .... good.

You say I don't have a clue what you think. I know exactly what you think and everyone else on this board knows what you think. You're not kidding anyone. You're not hard to read.

Your silence tells me more than anything. You are usually not shy about giving your opinion. When you are shy, the reason is obvious. You will never an answer a question that exposes your hypocrisy. You're not kidding anyone.

Most obviously, you don't have a clue.

You're projecting from your own reality. Not mine.

And I wouldn't be so quick to include "everyone else on this board". Some of you guys really go out on a limb, assuming you know what everybody else here thinks.

I've observed your posting behavior for a long time and you are as predictable as a clock. If answering a question will undermine your argument, you refuse to answer. That is one of the main reasons that you are so unpopular here.

The question I asked you was quite relevant to the subject being discussed. The subject being discussed was whether or not it is appropriate and even normal to have reactions to people based on their appearance. I think it is appropriate and normal and we all do it every day.

I wasn't saying that "everyone on the board" knows what you think about everything. I was saying that "everyone on the board" knows what you think about this particular question.

I don't think you could find 1 person out of 100 that wouldn't think that a young man in baggy pants is usually more of a threat than an 80 year old lady. Everyone has the same opinion about that. We all know your opinion about that much in the same that we know you believe the world is round. Even though I've never asked you if you think the world is round, we know you think the world is round because everyone knows the world is round.

Anyway, it's funny that you won't admit that you would be more fearful of a young man in baggy pants than an 80 year old lady. You won't admit it because you think it would make you look hypocritical since you have given others a hard time about judging people based on their appearance.

If I am walking my dog at midnight, will I be more concerned if:

A. A youn man in baggy pants is approaching me
B. An 80 year old lady is approaching me

You say I should have considered that there could be an answer "C". I don't think there could be an answer "C". What would "C" be?

Let me guess, you refuse to answer that question too.
