Wow ... so rapists would never be caught without an instant willingness among the citizenry to just do whatever the cops ask? You know, somehow we manage to catch rapists every day without going door to door and treating every citizen as a suspect without a trace of probable cause ... imagine that.Darth Wong wrote:This reminds me of a thread I posted a while ago where the police solved a horrific child kidnapping/rape/murder case by going around the entire neighbourhood where she lived and asking for DNA samples from every single adult male. The "give me liberty or give me death" idiots would have refused to give the sample on the same vague principles they always blabber about in lieu of demonstrating any real harm that would be done.
But this happened in Toronto, not WankerLand USA. So everybody rolled up their sleeves and gave DNA samples, because they understood that the police were cutting down the suspect list. Sure enough, only a half-dozen men refused to give samples, thus giving the police a manageably small list of suspects to work with. And they eventually nabbed the bastard.
Moral of the story? We got the son of a bitch. But if we were like you wankers, he'd still be walking around free.

You know, I've had enough of your strawman exaggerations, asshole. I never said it was impossible to catch rapists through any other means, and you know it. I only showed how excessive assholery such as yours can directly cause problems, with no obvious benefits to counteract them other than the maintenance of your idiotic pride.Chmee wrote:Wow ... so rapists would never be caught without an instant willingness among the citizenry to just do whatever the cops ask?

If your only method of dealing with a point you can't handle is to use grossly exaggerated strawman distortions, then I don't fucking need you around here. I've said this before, and it doesn't seem to be sinking in with you.

Correct. But for the second time, I did not say that "rapists would never be caught without an instant willingness among the citizenry to just do whatever the cops ask", asshole. I said that this particular rapist would not have been caught if the people in that neighbourhood refused to give DNA samples. Anyone who reads this thread can see that. Your enormous exaggeration of my position is precisely what I correctly accused you of, and it is obvious that you refuse to stop using this kind of dishonesty bullfuckery.Chmee wrote:I'm sorry, when you set the precedent ...Darth Wong wrote: You know, I've had enough of your strawman exaggerations, asshole.

I gave you a warning about your habitual dishonesty and use of strawman distortions. You chose to respond with a repetition of your lie about my position (one which any idiot can easily see is a lie by simply reading this short thread), along with a bunch of smart-assed rhetorical bullfuckery for flavour. Obviously, you do not respond to warnings. Therefore:Got it, let you handle the strawman distortions, leave it to the pros.
You are history.
Sometimes I wonder why I even bother warning people, since it seems that when I issue a warning the first response from the target is just to become even more of a dishonest prick.
For a time, I considered sparing your wretched little planet Cybertron.
