Guest Cancer Marney Report post Posted June 25, 2003 Yes, it's completley illogical and silly NOT to judge an entire group based on the thoughts of a part of it. Again, it boils down to how significant that "part" of a given group is. At 92%, it's significant, and it becomes an associated trait at best; causal at worst.

Rob E Dangerously 0 Report post Posted June 25, 2003 Yes indeedy. I'm inculcating a vast movement of anti-French zealots around the world whose ultimate goal is to burn down Paris and cast the Eiffel Tower into the Seine. Hmm, that doesn't sound like a bad idea, come to think of it. Apart from the deaths of men, women, and children, right? Yeah, yeah, it was a joke. But I find taking jokes seriously to be funny. Instead, why not make a Blutron bomb. It will destroy buildings, but not people. Granted, you'd have one hell of a homeless problem later, but, that's in the future.

Guest JMA Report post Posted June 25, 2003 Personally, I would prefer a world with no countries, wars, hate, ect. But that's not likely to ever happen... so we have this. But it's nice to dream. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, see, I made a joke before that I thought you'd find hilarious! Here's another one that should appeal to your sense of humor: I'm going to get a group of anti-Bush supporters and place a bomb in the White House just for the sole purpose of killing George Bush.

Guest Cancer Marney Report post Posted June 25, 2003 So disagreeing with the American government is enough to earn your hatred? On a certain point, for certain reasons, in a certain way.

Guest JMA Report post Posted June 25, 2003 That I'm morally equivalent to a member of the KKK? How nice for you. I said "MOST." I don't think you're the equivalent to the KKK. For starters, I've agreed with a lot of what you've said in the past. I just think you're wrong about this one thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I merely pointed out that the two aren't really reconcilable. Why is that? Just because you don't agree with everything a person says doesn't mean you can't like and respect them. Let me put it another way. I agree with Duo is his argument that there is no reason to hate the French, in general. The KKK is a group that encourages violence, hate, and intolerance. You, however, say you would not automatically hate an individual because they were French. Yet, I still feel it is wrong when you hate them in a group. I don't think you would actually consider dropping bombs on France or anything. I just feel that the anti-French attitude you have is bad in the long run. That's about as clear as I can make it.

Guest The Hamburglar Report post Posted June 25, 2003 Really, people. You shouldn't hate the French. They revel in it. That's why they're great. And you wouldn't say you hated them if you were crossing a French road, oh no. French drivers are homicidal, and kill on sight. I've always wondered how they lost all those wars, seeing as all they'd have had to do was either deploy a vast army of crazed Renault-drivers to ram the invaders or just maliciously go on strike as soon as they get invaded. French strikes that paralyse the Channel Tunnel are a particular favourite of mine. They occur only to piss off the English. The current tiff you Yanks have with the French is pussified to the extreme. Come on, half the people who wrote your constitution wrote theirs. No, the English, the French and the Germans, there's a three way battle of petty national hatreds you guys can only dream of. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
