Hey, the civil rights act has been law for a whole 46 years -- it's time to pretend all that stuff never happened. Calm? I find his endless whining about people being hostile to him to be quite entertaining.

No, you now want walk back your position because you got your ass handed to you on a plate. You wrote "It does, however, perfectly fit my initial assertion which is that the best indicator of crime in a given area is how much of the population is black or hispanic." Ghana has nearly 100%...

Look at it this way, maybe there's someone reading who's so profoundly stupid that they buy your nonsense. Keep that hope alive, my friend.

Oh, so you ARE going to keep typing. Except we're not talking about one person, we're talking about 23.5 million people (the population of Ghana), more than sufficient a sample to disprove your theory. I can see why you're upset, you've lost this argument to two people two different ways...

Ghana, and you won't get any blacker than that, has lower homicide rates than almost all US states. So much for your nonsense. Are you going to keep typing now?

Nice try. Some of us are paying attention when we read. In a debate this would be the point that you lost.

You ever had an argument with someone who thinks the moon landings were faked? It can be fun, for a while.

Now that I've explained how the appeal to authority fallacy works to Trader666, I'll let you in on a little secret: you're arguing with a textbook. I don't think you'll win.

Since this sort of reasoning is fallacious only when the person is not a legitimate authority in a particular context, it is necessary to provide some acceptable standards of assessment. The following standards are widely accepted: 1. The person has sufficient expertise in the subject...

Nope. As you freaked out about before, the single best indicator of violent crime is gender -- black and white women aren't committing violent crime. Although that doesn't fit your racist narrative.

You seem perfectly peaceful, and want to generalize about individuals because of their skin color, which is perfectly reasonable -- as reasonable as generalizing about individuals because of their gender.

Have you been raped by a black?

Absolutely. We need to do something, perhaps isolate males, or limit their movement, or make them report to the police on a regular basis. Perhaps we can just separate them from normal people, as they are inferior and disgusting. Did you know that nearly 100% of rapes are committed by males?

The best predictor of criminal behavior is being male. Why are males like this? Why are males like this everywhere males exist, in every country? What should we do about the male problem?

Bugscoe makes an interesting point -- if even the Democrats are campaigning with Bush, why aren't the Republicans? Phone your reps now and get Bush out on the campaign trail. He's that popular.

Absolutely agree. I hope you guys are phoning your reps to get them out on the campaign trail with Bush.

You don't think climatologists have accounted for this? (Not to mention that the Sun has been in a solar minimum for about a decade and the temperature continues to rise.)

Actually the fallacious reasoning is yours and it's called "appeal to authority" -- which is fine if you have an authority. You don't.

So can anyone posting here think of a Republican candidate who's having Bush campaign with him on the campaign trail? Because I can't.
