I'm not trolling, and the quote from a cited source is far from delusional the last time I checked. You are trolling, Dipshit. Repeating yourself without arguing the point before you is trolling. I have been arguing the point. When the same question is asked over and over again, do you expect a dif...

Liberal Arts was my "I'm fed up with this shit" major. I switched to it just so I could get the hell out of college with a degree.

I wish I had stayed with Areonautics now that I look back on it.

My point stands. The more concentrated power is into the hands of a few parties, the less representative of their constituencies those parties will be, yet they will be that much more effective. The more power is evenly dispersed between a few parties, the less effective each party will be. This al...

More bullshit. The FCC makes federal-level judgements, not regional ones. That those judgments come from the federal level does not by default mean that they are devoid of local standards. The FCC makes judgments at the federal level based on their rules and how said rules pertain to local standard...

I admit that I am disappointed Powell is leaving however I like and respect Condi. I think that instead of a step back in the Secretary of State position we are taking a step sideways. The real question pertains to the position of National Security Advisor and who will occupy that particular positio...

How curious, in one breath your advocating politeness: I disagree. If you conduct yourself politely then others will be more receptive to what you have to say. And in the other you come out with a quite vitriolic post, a personal attack even, that does nothing to help your case in the slightest. I'...

That bit when God was in the video confessional... priceless!

I was wholly disappointed. I don't think I laughed once during that whole ep.

What fucking part of "subjective standard" do you not understand, dipshit? It is impossible to be sure whether you're breaking a rule if it is subjective defined, so the net effect is that everyone overcompensates for fear of what is effectively arbitrary and random punishment. The standa...

And look how well evolution goes over in, say, Georgia? :roll: Grendel, you say that people who 'seek things out' should have to pay. Well, in this case, both parties are seeking something out, one is seeking a program that doesn't pander to whiny little twits, and one is seeking a program laundere...

What are those people suppossed to do? Turn off the TV or the radio? That's all fine and dandy, but couldn't the same arguement be made for people who don't want to be exposed to what they deem "moralistic" radio? Know what I do if there's something "moralistic" on the radio or ...

No, deliberate attacks against civilians are war crimes . Only if you end up losing. If you win, then it was "doing what had to be done". Duh! :P :D Whatever you say, Axis Kast Junior. :roll: Seriously, though, civilians are the mechanism an army functions upon. They make the supplies, th...

Or you could check the TV guide, or watch for when they advertise the upcoming programs. If you're offended by stuff that's the way to go. If you get TV guide. There's always the version in the newspaper, I guess, but both cost money and according to my philosophy, money should be paid to seek stuf...

Why should you be glad that an organization with idiotic rules is now harshly (and inconsistently) enforcing them? I am glad that the organization is finally starting to enforce their rules, even if they are being applied unequally. Why? Because it is a good start towards the equal application of t...

What if there was a rating symbol in the bottom right corner? That way if you wanted to watch an R rated movie you could seek it out that way, and if you didn't you could avoid it. That would be a nice middle ground. Why should those of us that aren't handicapped by silly PC rules have to wait till...

In world war II all cities were legitimate targets for bombing, [snip] No, deliberate attacks against civilians are war crimes . Only if you end up losing. If you win, then it was "doing what had to be done". Duh! :P :D Seriously, though, civilians are the mechanism an army functions upon...

No. I am not kidding. I rather enjoy most of that shit, but it should be something that I have to seek out; not that others have to avoid. Broadcasts using public airwaves should be monitored and regulated and I am quite thrilled that the FCC has finally gotten some balls. What's more is that "...

The christianity comment is the foundation of why we have these censors, it is not a remark on your argument. Oh. Ok. See. Yeah, the foundation of much of the US's moral code is judeo-christian philosophy and even though I don't consider my own moral code to be one of religion, I see how it evolved...

I beg to differ. What I said was that I was glad that the FCC finally has the teeth and the balls to enforce their rules, not that their rules were great. If we don't like the rules, then we should work to change them, not ignore them, and I am all for change. Why should you be glad that an organiz...

Basically Grendel, our rights are being compromised because we have to pay extra costs to see the shows that we want. While those who adhere to good christian values don't. Things like this should be equal. 1) What does christianity have to do with anything? I don't know about others' arguements, b...

You and I both know that there are fringe groups out there that are offended at the drop of a hat and that we will never appease them all. Further, what is offensive to one group or community is embraced by others. I don't know what the perfect solution is nor do I pretend to. Yes you do, you just ...

I would advise anyone who's never seen it to watch it.

I wholly agree.

Grendel, where do you draw the line of what can be deemed offensive? For example: If I were a fundamentalist Muslim, I might take offense at TV articles about the beach. Namely because there's always shots of women in bikinis. You and I both know that there are fringe groups out there that are offe...
