About Me
I'm an artisan farmer/homesteader. I garden and raise my livestock as organicly as possible. I also make my own bread, quite a few of my own tools, brew my own beer, and try to walk as lightly upon the earth as possible. Since the idjits at NASA still haven't got us any other planets to live on, I reckon we ought to be maintaining this one, a bit better.

on Hiroshima was justified because it ended the war quickly

Well, you're part right; I am an American. Proud of it, too. I have been in 116 different countries. There are others that were pretty cool. I loved Greece, especially Crete and Cyprus. Oz was cool, NZ even better. Spain is pleasant. Most of the other countries were I was in were shitholes. None of them compare with the USof A. It's not perfect either, but it's better than anywhere else.
I'm not a racist, but I don't give a damn if you want to think I am.That seems to be the thing anymore, if you have no point-which you obviously don't-you resort to name calling. Especially if something hit a bit too close to home for you.
Not a pig either, although I raise a lot of them here on the farm.Good eating. I'd offer to share, but I wouldn't want the mullah to kick you out of his bed.
You're right; I never had members of my family killed in front of my eyes. Have you? I have quite a few firearms here on the farm, had someone attempted that here would have been more folks dead than my family member.
I guess what I'm trying to say is: MAKE A POINT!! Any 5 year old retard can call me names. It takes someone with at least 2 brain cells to rub together to have a coherent thought. If that ever happens with you(something I doubt) then maybe you might also grow a pair of stones and at least identify yourself. So far, You have proven yourself to be not only an idiot, but a cowardly one as well. And that's ALL you've done.

A curious cunundrum, I Agree. But here's something to contemplate: did anyone ask the violinist? But weather they did or did not, dialisys is and was possible in the scenario. If it wasn't, then vampiricly plugging one human being into another wouldn't be either.
but when all is said and done, I have to admit, I truly wouldn't know how to answer that one. But, being a soldier (naval Sailor, actually) I do recognise my duty to make sure the music lovers' get totally f%$#ed up, before they did the same thing to someone else..
I know, that's not even an issue insofar as the scenario goes.
But here's one that is; what if I decide that I don't care to live that way and decide to off myself? Do I have that right? Who's going to have a big enough pair to stop me?
I myself feel that suicide is the coward's way out, but I also beleive that we all have the RIGHT to suicide.

heyo Nonymous,
I was going to argue that the person with the good kidneys had no say in the matter, but was indeed, the victim of a crime. But I had to throw the pregnant rape victim in there, too.
The only argument I have, and I believe it's a telling one, is technology. There are very effective dialisys machines. I used to drive the county bus and I had regular passengers I took to dialisys every other day. It's a crappy life, but I would imagine it's better than all of a sudden being a Siamese twin with an unwilling other half.
There is no way to keep an aborted fetus alive. If there ever is an "artificial womb" invented, it'll change the way humans establish families, along with so many other things that there's no telling what will happen to society as a whole.

I'd have to agree with D.Armenta about the tracks, just holler and throw the switch.
Wilt Chamberlin was entitled to the monies because the the team offered it to him to get him to play. It was the team owners' money and they offered it as a part of a contract. How could that be unjust or unfair?
For the fiddler, get a dialisys machine and let the other person get on with their life while the musicians' group is prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. The person with the good kidneys is NOT obligated to be plugged in to the Fiddler.
Abortion is wrong. Period.A woman's right to choose is the biggest bunch of bullshit in the news media today. Did the woman not exercise her right to choose when she had unprotected sex while not being on birth control? She screwed up, and now she want's to kill her baby because it's inconvienient. Act responsibly and you won't need to be inconveinienced. "But what about rape and incest?" What about them? The fetus didn't rape the woman, nor did it commit incest with her. And sometimes, Bad things happen to good people. Sad but true.
If you aren't ready to be a Mommy, then maybe your lover IS ready to be a Daddy. And if he isn't, there are thousands of infertile couples the world over who would love to have your throw away infant to raise as their own
Smith and Jones were both in the wrong.

on About lying to murderers (Immanuel Kant)

Hey Nonymous,
I guess alot of it depends on the courage you have of your convictions. I LIKE TO THINK that I have the courage to tell the SS bastards to piss off then see how many of them I could take to the grave with me, or send to the grave before I escaped. But again, I DON'T KNOW how I would react. Peter denied the Christ 3 times, so who knows? But I still think the right thing would be to tell them to go to hell. But then again, I've been accused of being an arrogant, unyielding, asshole on more than 1 occaision.

How about you tell the murderer to piss off and refuse to answer him/her? Or is that to difficult to figure out?

Well, it's been better than a week now, Ayman and I haven't heard from you. What's wrong, son? Can't find a second brain cell? Did the Mullah there in Buttfukistan turn off the InterNet?
Anyway, all the butchering is done for the next few weeks, So, if you ever have a coherant thought, I now have the time to show the world how ignorant you are. I'm waiting......

Hi Ayman. I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were one of the millions we rescued out of the madrassa and gave a real education to. This country likes to help the mentally challenged, look who we just elected President.

Then you went back to your hovel and whined about how good we were to you. It's ok, I understand. Happens all the time. I have a dog who bites when he's fed here on my farm. So you see, it's actually very common.

Once again you've spat out your hatred and vitriol (do you know what vitriol means? probably not) but again you have no facts or stats. just hatred and venom.

I stand by what I said before; one way to spell loser is A-Y-M-A-N.

I have to butcher my pigs tomorrow, so I won't be able to answer you before Sunday morning. 1200 lbs of pork doesn't cut and wrap itself. So you'll have a day or so to come up with an intelligent response. Well, a response anyway, intelligent would probably be expecting a bit much. Good luck, from what I've already seen of your well thought out maunderings, you're really going to need it.

Just out of curiousity; what 3rd world shithole of a country do you originate from?

Hey there UKPolitics; Sure man, anytime you want to discuss something, I'll be happy to do the same. Maybe I'm arrogant, I don't know. But I do know that my arguments are reasoned out, not just "you're so Bad, bullcrap".. I saw a comment on another blog (not orble) that was basicly "America bashing". The comment wasn't mine, but I thought it was funny. It said "oh, you're from Europe? The part whose ass we kicked, or the part whose ass we saved?" I don't totally agree with that sentiment, but it's true that everyone on both sides of the last 2 European wars courted us to be on their side. The more other folks bash at us, the more arrogant we get. it's like that with anyone. But when the losers get more and more strident -Hi Ahmed, hey Ayman- then I figure we must be doing something right. If you have read this whole blog then you pretty much know my thoughts on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
I am glad it was Truman who had to make that decision and not me. I like to think I have the moral courage to do what has to be done, but I'd just as soon not find out on that particular score.
I value other peoples' viewpoints if they are well thought out. But I have a hard time suffering fools, Hi Ahmed, hey Ayman, what's up, Garry?

Ayman, if you live till your 12th birthday, or if they start teaching English in your madrassa, I'll happily debate with you. Until then, piss off and go home to your Momma.

on Reflections on Little Rock (Hannah Arendt)

January 24th 2009 22:20
I think Hannah is wrong on this. If you don't want to play with me that's fine, but you don't have the right to keep me from playing at the play ground. I can't remember ever being made to party with someone I didn't want to party with. It wouldn't be much of a party then, would it?
Another point; Didn't the Nazis have places they called "Judenfrie"? Meaning free of jews? I bet Hannah would have fought against that.
What it comes down to is that if I have a party at my house and I don't want black prople or Jews there then I can not invite them. But that is a private affair in my home or whatever. School, work, things like that should be open to all, sorry. I think Hannah was trying to justify her own bigotry. Hannah is also wrong in the assumption that school is a private thing. Here in the US of A school is a publicly funded institution, and is therefore, as it should be, open to all. If parents don't want their children to "associate" with certain kids or types of kids, then home schooling is an allowable option.
