      - Glasses houses and all that. - TWuG Jun 17, 12:31 4
        
        Just to quibble a hair: saying you are a Christian does not necessarily imply that person feels they are morally superior to anyone. - TFox Jun 17, 12:33 2
        
        I know that. But joing Promise Keepers then cheating implies (at the very least) a bit of sanctimony and hypocrisy on Ensign's part -- nm - TWuG Jun 17, 12:42

        Saying that you think a law is stupid is sort of nothing else *but* arguing the merit of it. - Subversive Jun 17, 12:31 1

- I was just in the local eddie bauer store .. everything was overpriced. Does this mean it's sale time? :) I heard Petcetera is done for. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 17, 12:13
I'd almost forgotten how diverse cities were. -- nm - ty97 Jun 17, 12:07 9
- come to Perth. you'll forget again. -- nm - mafic Jun 17, 12:15
- Depends what city you refer. Some are certainly less so. -- nm - Don Homer Jun 17, 12:09 7
  - My statement refers to major US cities in general. - ty97 Jun 17, 12:12 4
    - I know what you mean. I would say a place like Washington, DC (city only, not talking suburbs) isn't very diverse. -- nm - Don Homer Jun 17, 12:13 3
      - Never mind. I take that back somewhat; I thought the % Black was higher than it is (55.5%). - Don Homer Jun 17, 12:16

Con_carne, if you have my name, I want it. I hate squatters and will kill you to get it. - TWuG Jun 17, 12:05 4
- I sympathize, man. If TFox ever became the new word for "Twitterer who posts in a sexy or foxy fashion", I might just fall on my sword and end it. -- nm - TFox Jun 17, 12:10 2

if I was going to draw you a venn diagram, I'd make the hate in hate crime a small circle, and put in entirely inside the big circle of premeditation. -- nm - mafic Jun 17, 12:04 16

  - Well, we better get going, only 11 weeks till the season starts. Cavemen need all the time they can get. -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 17, 12:05 2
    - It's a miracle we ever got fire or the wheel. -- nm - David Jun 17, 12:06 1
      - To be fair, they had a lot more time than 11 weeks back then. - Will Hunting Jun 17, 12:07
I have to ask again. once you tack on an additional punishment because of "hate", the hate becomes a crime. - dogbert183 Jun 17, 12:00 7

  - more than us -- nm - Redmond on a phone Jun 17, 12:02 2
    - a) it doesn't protect him if he's dead. b) if someone attacks you because they hate white people, they can get a tougher sentence. -- nm - Reagen Jun 17, 12:09 1

- Ummm, both your "decides" reference premeditation. Neither involves "hate". -- nm - Ender Jun 17, 11:59 3
