hoosier 58 Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 42 minutes ago, Nicepix said: So what you are saying is that you don't trust your own government, but your country has spent the best part of the last 70 years overturning other country's governments and installing the process of democracy that you don't trust? Distrust of government is fundamental to a free society. Following your government like sheep is the recipe for a dictatorship. A government that doesn’t have a healthy fear of their citizens is akin to a terrier having zero respect for its owner. Democracy is a beautiful thing as long as there are checks and balances. And for the record, I’m adamantly against my country sticking our nose in other countries business 95% of the time. 4 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And suicides I suppose, which usually represent 50% of gun deaths. It is still a significant stat but it’s been produced with an agenda and so worded to suit. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

How dare we continue to consume such a beverage that provides no utility other then intoxication. Side note: I lost my grandmother and aunt to a drunk driver. I still consume alcohol. I just don’t drive intoxicated. Imagine that 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
