Well look whose credibility just went down the toilet.

Second Timer, do you honestly think anyone's going to want to converse with you if you keep calling everyone an idiot? Get some social skills, son! And while you're at it, critical thinking skills and some original ideas might also help.

While you've got me on the states won and population of the counties won, the fact that the square miles and murder rate are still shocking is one you ought not overlook (especially the murder rate per).

Vanderfeet, I can admit defeat. I was duped and should've researched this topic more. I live and learn and move on. But if you read my posting and asked "What's the point?" I would've questioned your common sense just like I did Robotron2084. I didn't call him an idiot, I called him Einstein. Looks to me like you're a little sore from our last faceoff...son.

Calling someone Einstein is a sarcastic way of calling someone an idiot (unless you were literally implying that he's a super genius, which I doubt). My point was that your consistently dismissive, belligerent attitude is not exactly one that encourages discussion. You just end up coming off as ignorant.

And your two remaining stats are irrelevant. Miles of land won? Who cares! This isn't World War I trench warfare. It's an election.

And as for the crime stat, it's well known that Democrats do better than Republicans amongst the poor. It's also well known that crime is much higher in areas of poverty.

Thank you, you made my point for me!
 
Posted by Vanderfeet (Member # 8733) on :
 
I'm glad we can both agree that Democrats can't be blamed for what is an inherent problem in areas of poverty worldwide - that poverty breeds criminal activity everywhere, regardless of whether the government is liberal or conservative.

You would want to push the blame anywhere but on the dems.

If you think the big cities (NY, LA, Chicago, etc...) aren't FULL of stupid, uneducated, crime riddled, democrats (who voted for 'ole monk ears) than you are dumber than I originally thought sir...

PS: I didn't bother reading your links cuz, like I've stated, you lost credibility with me long ago

I'm done with you. Your personality is so repellent that you might as well have a ruptured colostomy bag hanging around your neck.
 
Posted by Second Timer (Member # 21660) on :
 
Ok Mr. Credible.
 
Posted by Vanderfeet (Member # 8733) on :
 
Before you talk about credibility, why don't you take a look at the first post in this thread?

That completely inaccurate bullshit post belongs to YOU. Are you mentally retarded? You yourself admitted to being unreliable.

Be very proud of that.

Goodbye.
