Official Off Topic Discussion Thread #1

And I'm part of those MILLIONS.
If 1 thing gets through your thick head through your visit to mfk, I hope it's that you need to learn not to try to pick fights with people older then you. They will beat you down with knowledge and experience most of the time.
Do you think I don't want to argue with some of these people? I do. I don't because I know there is most likely something they know that I don't know that will prove whatever point I was trying to make invalid.
I'd recommend staying out of "grown up" conversations and topics until you are said grown up with experience in it. I do for the most part but when I do venture into that territory I remain respectful and listen to everyone before saying something.
@Deadliestviper7 please come soon man, I can't wait to hear your response.
Agree with you here mr.sandwich, get experience first then argue your point, and if your wrong accept it and learn from that experience , it's also clear that imabot doesn't have much experience with firearms, police vehicles etc.
Many of the other weapons that police officers often carry are to bulky for use in most of the situations encountered by most leos, for short range a sidearm is quicker to draw and manuever, while rifles and shotguns tend to be more awkward to move about with due to length and over time weight, many rifle for example weigh from 8 to 24+ lbs, which can be taxing and exhaust officers, especially those of smaller stature or build, furthermore some long weapons have projectiles that can go thru the perpetrator and injure other people or items behind the perp.

@krichardson the animals may be the victims of red tide , as you know, algae can be encouraged from chemical runoff, such as fertilizers from lawns and golf courses
 
Legalized prostitution could also make it more accessible to younger people and even minors where as it being illegal it's harder to "get
Minor here and I can confirm that if prostitution was made legal then minors would find a way to "get some". ;)
 
I am not sure why life experience is more relevant than statistics and the facts. Anecdotal evidence is not a good way to get your opinion.
1. Drugs kill people and are bad
2. Your mother overdoses on crack and dies.

Which one has a greater effect?
 
You are definitely right on this one. As long as it remains illegal it must be prosecuted, for the sake of law and order.


It is not exactly a clean business now. Maybe a car sales isn't a good comparison, but why would it be different from a cabby? A service is being provided. The gov't should regulate safety, because who else will? If you say that they screwed up medical care, fine, but who cares if they screw up whoring? Cigarettes, among other things, are considered unethical today, yet they are legally sold by good, honest people, and have reasonable quality control.

No, I am not trolling. I really do think like this, and will continue to do so until someone fixes me. :p

Edit: I can't separate @PYRU 's quote for some reason, so it is included in the 2nd one from Jaws.
Sounds like you do things cuz it's legal, not cuz it's morally sound, I find that attitude backwards

I had never heard of red tide before,it sounds pretty horrible.In other news in Florida I also read about a recent case of a sea ture being rescued by US Coast Guard personell.The turtle was trapped in the lashings of floating bails of cocaine.

That's weird, maybe the turtle joined the war against drugs, soon there will be anti dealer turtles with cannons on there shells
