If you put that to referendum in Texas I bet it would pass.

Everyone wears big boots down there.

(Or up there from here.)

Naaaaaaa, not in Texas.

They are all straight shooters.

They hit what they aim for.

Except Bush, but then I think he should have never sobered up.

No, I think you are confusing that with my continual campaign to have Heinz come out with Watsabi and Beans.

So you don't think that equating two guys who are stealing from a neighbour and then enter the property of someone who confronts them with 'walking past', 'visiting grandma' or' fraternity pranks'

That's not what I was doing IQ. Hence, not a strawman. I hope you can move on from this point now.

If an innocent is caught in the crossfire then the full weight of the law would be applied to the offending party...

That won't make it hurt any less IQ.

why don't we just hand all material possessions over to one big socialist pool and it can be a free for all without the need for hard work or the risk of being shot and the govt can distribute it as they see fit.

Now that is a strawman. You leap from one absurdity to another IQ.

I don't think so.

Just what was your point then?

IQ, others have already explained it to you quite clearly in this thread.

If you refuse to explain your point the why don't you just say that you don't have one- because you don't?

I don't explain because I don't think there is any point in explaining. It was obvious to everyone else - so much so that they could explain it perfectly well. If you still don't get it, there's nothing I can do for you. I think you were just caught out trying to use big words you don't understand, so now you are pretending you misunderstood me, rather than your own words.

I think you are pretending you have been misunderstood when it is plainly obvious what you meant. I think that you were just caught out trying to obfuscate by constructing a strawman and are now avoiding explaining.

Just because you deny building a strawman doesn't mean your are not guilty of trying to construct one
