Is it really necessary to cut People's Posts up
into a bunch of quotes,when the Thread
already has tons of Quotes,or is there a more
sinister purpose behind it,like for instance
Obfuscation,and altering the meaning of
posts?
Its to address a particular part of a post. Nothing sinister about it.....its done on forums all over the internet.....Its much better, to me, than all these requotes done ten times over that take forever to scroll through.

But Obama said mass killings never happen in other countries. ..


I guess obonzo must've conveniently, been asleep during the news of all the mass killings in the discoteque bombings of the 70s and 80s, that occurred in several European countries.

And, I suppose, obonzo simply overlooked the mass killings in Sudan, Liberia, South Africa, West Africa, and Nigeria.... All while he had the best seat in the house, to witness it all.

It is indeed a tragedy, the recent events in Austria. As it is when people are needlessly murdered anywhere.


Yes, I recall as a kid having to land in Malmo Sweden instead of Stuttgart DDR at the time because of a bomb threat at the airport. That was Islamic terrorism. That;s different than highschool kids with guns from your own hometown

I have wondered about that.
Anyone know what that's about; duplicating an entire post, only to comment on it peripherally at the end?

Thanks C7 for confirming Obama's assertion.
According to the data in your post, the U.S. is
the only one on the list with fatalities in triple
digits,
Deaths per 1,000,000 citizens, we're 6th.


You are correct. LT facts were incorrect and his conclusions were wrong. Incidents of this type are always judged by the percentage of population, not the actual number.

a) What is the relevance of the title to the topic?

b) No.
What Obama said was:
"... once again innocent people were killed in part because someone who wanted to inflict harm had no trouble getting their hands on a gun. At some point we as a country will have to recon with the fact that this type of mass violence does not happen in other advanced countries." President Obama 15/06/18

Nit-picking his comment with contractual legal precision might find a few flaws.

But as a general rule, what I've read of it indicates it tends to be true.
Citing anecdotal exceptions is pointless.

What's relevant is per capita statistics.

I eagerly invite anyone here to post that, with authentication link.


yea, obarry lies about everything, we already knew that... thats for the support tho...

Titles don't have to be relevant to content.

- clearly -

It's not an issue of Constitutional law.

It's simply a matter of netiquette, appropriate cyber-manners.

Mislabeling a horse crap topic delectable hors d’oeuvres is a petty betrayal.

I don't give a phuck about manners or etiquette.

I've been on the site for almost 7 years and I've seen all types come and go. You either know what you are talking about or you don't. If you don't...... it doesn't take long before the Sharks start circling.

This is an informal setting.. Always has been.

You've got your a$$ handed to you on your statistics request, so don't try salvaging your relevance on the topic by making it about the title...

apparently

It's a bold, and candidly somewhat eclectic approach at a date site.

Wild guess based on your seething hostility: you're single?
