What's new

People have lost their damn minds

many of the posters here think that gay marriage should be legalized regardless of what the majority wants. Then they turn right around and say animal cruelty should be a federal offense because it's what the majority wants.

Regardless of anything else Marcus, I think you would have to acknowledge that I have never appealed to the "majority is always right and their wishes should always be followed" argument, even when it suited my own ends.
 
On the issue of majority rules, this is the very reason the Bill of Rights was added to the Constitution. The majority can decide if tax money will be spent on a homeles shelter or an opera house, but cannot vote to deny me my rights. I'm not saying the majority hasn't denied the rights of individuals, it has happened hundreds of times and in some exteme ways, but the principles this nation was founded upon tell us it isn't right.

Pure democracy is two wolves and a chicken voting on what to have for lunch.

But the Bill of Rights itself is something the majority agrees is good to have in place or else no one would follow it. It's the majority's way of preventing things (or eventually correcting them) before there is a specific future instance or context. Like not wanting to lose too much at the casino so you only bring $100 with you.

Solid posts. I like how they made sense.
 
umm yopu see i haven't been to college and i haven't taken a high school philosophy course so i don't know about the basic logical fallafcies. it's funny that whenever i post i see people talking about how the mjajoiryt wants gay marriage illegal but the majority also wants dog killing illegal sooo... wtf. epic hypocrisy. ban sirkickyass.
 
i have a DOG. i love my DOG. MICHAEL VICK MURDERED MY DOG mmm haha i'm haveing steaks for dinner tonight. i love to eat meat, put micael vick in jail forever also gay marriage illegal forever also
 
you see sirkickyass this issue is exactly like the gay marriage issue and let me tell u why, the majoriy supports michael vick in prison and the majority supports gay people not afforded basichuman rights. do u see how you're a hypocrite? don't u understand? haha, i laugh at u. michal vick should be executed as should gayu people ideally but not ideally they shouldn't be allowed to marry because theyre a threatt to me and my fat wife. my loveless marriage. i secretly want to have sex w/a man
