I agree with Mr. Stimely here: clubs such as Black Computer Science Club are offensive to people with any color skin. The end to segregation will not come through such separatist clubs. Larry: to protest, why don't you try to JOIN that club! ******** Three sentences by Larry ********* >Lastly (there are many more but I have a migraine tonight and can't stare at >the CRT much longer) I am tired of people who are too afraid to speak out >and tell the truth as I am doing now. I don't really care HOW Sasha and Jamie >feel, or how they attempt to cripple me and my arguments. Ideologically, >they're on the moon. 1> I, for one, am afraid of nothing: here is the truth: your writing style is horrid, and you seldom come to a point. You never answer legitimate questions about your ideology, and you never try to substantiate your claims. 2> You don't care what Jamie and Sasha have to say, and how they try to cripple you and your arguments. Does this mean that you refuse to try to learn anything? What do they do to 'cripple' your arguments? I argue with the both of them all the time, and they don't cripply me. I win some points, they win some points. 3> Ideologically, they are on the moon. So are you, my friend. So are you. ******* Larry on The Drug Problem ******** >There always is--look at Prohibition. We will have drug legalization, because >someone, somewhere, will cook up a scheme to create wealth from it, and this >is why America is still a leader among nations. I DARE you to prove me wrong. >People learn from this, and if they sell crack, we throw them in the can! >If "the can" fills up, we build more prisons. You know the rest. Let me get this straight. America is a leader among nations, because someone somewhere will cook up a scheme to create wealth from drug legalization, and America ought to build more prisons, if necessary, to throw people in jail for selling drugs. I can't even figure out what this is supposed to mean! >NOW I'm finished. Are you? I am just getting going good, myself. ******** Three easy questions for Larry ******* I have a series of questions which I dare you to answer. You claim to be unafraid to 'speak the truth'... so speak to me about these: 1> I, of course, agree with you that forced integregation is wrong, and a failure. Do you advocate forced segregation? 2> Do you think that black people are inherently (genetically) inferior to whites? How does your opinion about this translate into political policy? 3> Do you think that gay people ought to be prosecuted by the law? Should there be laws against certain forms of 'unnatural' behavior? --Jimbo
