    Antifa had plenty to do with the violence on Saturday. They literally started the violence that day. And who here is blaming Hillary or Obama? Your post is the first mention of them I've seen regarding the violence on Saturday.

    You are now claiming that you didn't attempt to impugn my intelligence, 3link?


    There aren't.

    Oh, but I did. Each student has an 'accomplishment profile'. It was not only easy to see the profiles of the accepted students, it was widely discussed in student forums.

    You had no knowledge of the circumstances involved, and you chose to lob an ad hominem immediately and talk out of your ass.

    You're so FOS a box of wet wipes would not be sufficient to clean you up.


    Keep digging. You are ****ing ignorant to the circumstances, but you keep flapping your asinine gums.

    I know the entire story, and you're FOS.


    And you are ignorant regarding my screen name as well. Keep flapping your ignorant gums. I do not have to defend my screenname from you.


    Sure you didn't. You're ignored. You're worth no one's time.

    This is one of the premier aspects of Communism, and see, I only partially agree with it. Environment is huge, environment is undoubtedly a major factor. But I do believe in free will. I myself am a living testament, I was born with Cerebral palsy and then at age 9, I got asthma. I could've easily used those as excuses and gave up, but I went through 6 grueling years in order to walk, I hit the books as hard as I could and studied as much as possible to become an intellectual. I'm very happy with myself and yet I can push myself even further.

    Likewise, with Love, I know that Love is the ultimate expression of free will. It cannot be forced, people cannot be beckoned to your whims but instead it is a feeling of mutual trust and understanding. There's so much free will in this world, and that leaves it up to the ultimate form of random chances. For better or ill.

    It seemed like you were claiming I had insulted your daughter, which I hadn't. I don't denying insulting your intelligence.

    Just FYI, no matter how high you think your IQ is, you don't have complete knowledge of the credentials of the other applicants who applied at the school your daughter didn't get into the first time around. I'm not allowed to call you a liar but there's no way in hell you were given access to the credentials of the students who got into the school ahead of your daughter. No school would release that information.

    I basically don't believe you because what you're saying runs contrary to the admission policies of pretty much every school in existence. If UW Business discloses the credentials of accepted students, it is probably the only school in the country that does so.

    Maybe you're trying to say, but failing miserably to clarify, that you had access to the profiles of UW-Madison students. How would you be able to tell everyone who got in based on that information? When a WU Madison student gets into UW Business, does that automatically show up on their profile? Moreover, is UW Business only open to applicants for UW Madison? This is important because if UW Business accepts applicants outside of UW Madison, then you can't possibly access the credentials of every student who was accepted into UW Business even if you somehow were able to access the achievement profiles of all of the UW Madison students who got into UW Business.

    Funny how logic works, eh? As I've said before, they must have really lowered the bar at Mensa.

    I don't need to know the circumstances involved to know you're jumping to conclusions based on incomplete information. That's how logic works. Based on the facts you gave me your conclusion does not follow.
    How about a shower?

    As demonstrated above, there's simply no way you could know that your daughter's rejection was based on something other than AA quotas because you simply don't have access to all of the information necessary to reach that conclusion.
    I don't doubt you know the entire story. And I know which parts of the story you have told me so far are irrelevant.

    Bro your screen name is the equivalent of a dude buying a Ferrari to compensate for you know what.

    I have a feeling you're going to read this and pretend you didn't. It comforts me to know you'll be stewing because you'll want to respond but you won't want to give away that you read my post even though you said you would be ignoring me.

    So someone else with Cerebral palsy at age 9 who got asthma (or some similar circumstance) who did not become successful is lesser than you? Lazier than you? Less intelligent than you? In some way inferior to you? No, ill never believe that. It reminds me of when someone who survived a car crash or something but everyone else died says "God has blessed me! God had a plan for me!" But what about all those other ****ing people? God didnt bless them? God didnt have a plan for them? Absolute nonsense. Dont get me wrong, im honestly glad you overcame the circumstances and hurdles in front of you, but by no means do I think you are better than someone else who didnt overcome those hurdles.

    Why do you love your dog and not some other dog? Why do you love your mom and not some other mom? Purely by sheer chance of proximity. There are plenty of dogs who love their shitty owners, plenty of kids who love their shitty parents, why? Pure chance of being born to them. Nothing magical about that to me. Love is biological, even animals experience it. Im not saying its not special in some sense and that it shouldnt be fostered, its just very obvious to me it has nothing at all to do with free will and everything to do with nature/nurture. You are right however that it is a "premier" aspect of Communism, in my eyes this belief (or lack of a belief) is the root cause of all of our beliefs. Figure out this issue, and we figure out the rest. I strongly believe this.

    Dogs experience love, do dogs have free will?

    I honestly don't know if other people have had my experiences. They probably have. And no, I can't judge what their reactions were or weren't, because I wasn't there to see them. Do I see myself as better, more fortunate, etc? No, because I'm not comparing them. I'm only striving to survive on my own merits. What other people do, what other people think of me? I don't care.

    That can be owed to a lot of personal bullying, and a lot of name calling. There was a time in my life where I really felt despondent and helpless. But I came from that to say "This is me, take me or leave me. I am who I am."

    I simply think that the moment we all try to better our lives, is the moment where life on earth will become more pleasant. I sincerely wish the best for all who might have similar backgrounds, even if the outcome might not be as good. Hell, for all I know it'll be better than what I've done.

    Honestly, I wouldn't say that about love either. It's true, I was born to this family of mine and so thus, I love this family. But would I love being in a dysfunctional family if I were born in it? No, probably not. We feel we owe allegiance because it's the natural thing to do, but once our own survivalism instinct kicks in(Usually ages 11-13), you tend to see such young people rebel or try to break out in their own way.

    And when it comes to making the choice to fall in love with another human, I also feel that that is free will, and entirely choice. You can't force love, and a forced love will never last. Because you have to keep on 'forcing it'. Naturally loving someone, is the best form of love.

    Honestly, I had read some of Karl Marx's literature, and found myself agreeing with more than half of it. But where I will disagree with, is the opinion that environment is 100%. If so, then there's no hope of improving humanity, short of improving the environment for everyone. I prefer to believe the people can improve the environment.

    Well I don't see what there is to 'investigate' because the circumstances and the apprehension of the crazy were incontrovertible, but thanks anyway. I guess the prosecution does have to be technically 100% sure.

    Not finding the perp in the car is problematic.


    Motive is about the only thing to investigate at this point.

    My mistake then - I understood he got out of the car and was apprehended more or less instantly.

    These nuances can be confusing sometimes, especially when incidents happen in a specific country but are read about in the press of another one.

    Yeah, I understand that. Especially after witnessing the MediaPhuck the last few attacks across the Pond.
    In my buzzfeed link, it says the car had been found abandoned, & doesn't go into how they found dude

    Don't know what buzzfeed is, but I stand corrected. But I was circumspect about it in my post.

    Of course they are :roll: You were just making things up about them looking after the injured

    No one looking at them is because they are terrorists

    He was not there to talk about the economy of the country in his desperation for approval.

    We shouldn't forget the injured either; if the speed is as described (100mph) then some of the injuries must surely be horrific?

    All the Way up to 100mph now?

    WOW!

    Actual speed was probably right around 35-40, going by the video I saw.

    I'm wondering if he was near it, but not in it. I mean, not that it will ultimately matter much. Thanks for the pic.

    I read it in a post earlier this morning, and on this board. I wasn't trying to dramatise.
