It revolts you that I am hateful towards people like Josef Fritzl? Why?


Well, frankly yes. He is mentally disturbed. Hate is unnecessary. Now that's not to say he should be a free man.


Hate is worse than unnecessary; it's destructive.

Why are you against the death penalty?


The idea of 'good people' being so hateful, even if it's towards hateful people, is revolting to me.


For real.

But whether captital punish is right or wrong (im agnostic about it) the question is "Why would Canadians be FOR it-all of sudden?"
I mean- why is it suddenly on the radar screen?

Is there a crime wave up there?

Each block in down town DC gets more murders each year than does the entire nation of Canada in a year so why is it even an issue in Canada?

Most Canadians want the death penalty back!


According to my own poll, 99% of women are pregnant.
I know, that struck me as odd as well, so I went round the maternity ward twice to make sure.

Polls can be meaningless. Unless they asked EVERYONE in Canada, I'm filing this one as BS.
