In my adult lifetime I've never heard anything but reverence for Dr. King from conservatives or libertarians. What views are you speaking to specifically?

Now what a man does thats not illegal is his business, save one profession. And that was Martin's profession. His God gave him 10 rules, but Martin HAD to get his dick wet. Further, pacifism is foolish. Edited January 22, 2019 by The_Dude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Dude Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Anybody who applauds pacifism should read The Last Article by Harry Turtledove. By its conclusion you'll see it's a stupid philosophy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a short story in which the Nazis invaded India....I'll cut to the gist, Gandhi informs the Nazi's he's organizing a hunger strike and the Nazi's laugh because they're just gonna kill 'em anyways. Pacifism can only work when you're going up against a power that is benevolent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to a degree that is correct, though it can also work against those whom are subject to external pressures to conform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of them know a damn thing about the military. Further, the military is run by alpha males who ooze toxic masculinity, something they all hate. What the hell do they imagine will happen if they force those kinds of people out and replace them with LGBTQLMNOP’s and “allies?” Like what do they think their desired ***** army is going to do? Ask the enemy for safe spaces and tweet their displeasure at them? ONLY alpha males can win wars. Leave war to the straight alpha males, it’s kind of our thing.

Koko78 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 So, I think I just invented the @DC Tom plea offer. Asked a DA if he would agree to reducing a felony to a misdemeanor if I made my client admit, in open court, that he was an idiot. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone who advocates for making degrees of stupidity misdemeanors or felonies, I like it. "Your honor, my client would like to plea down to misdemeanor stupidity in the second degree, in exchange for a sentence of time served and repeating third grade."
