@SamWhiteTky The problem with rights debates is they are always framed in the passive tense (e.g., should a person "be allowed" to say X or do Y?). Ask Baddiel the moral question in the active tense, "Do you think people should threaten others with violence in order to control their speech?"

@slomotion4199 @GeorgeTakei The two greatest disappointments in life (not getting what you desperately wanted & getting what you desperately wanted) apply most accurately to politics.

@ewarren And let's not forget your greatest victory, at the Battle of the Little Bighorn.

[Gorham's Cave @Captain_Gorham]

@NickiReddwoodd @elonmusk @defnotfedsloth Oh the sacrifice, having to consume all those billions in gov't money.

[Gorham's Cave @Captain_Gorham]

@UzeHerName @lfwons_eka Ahso, thank you...and your description completes the picture.

[Gorham's Cave @Captain_Gorham]

@SenSchumer @realDonaldTrump How odd—one would expect that you would support the Communist Party as the ultimate instantiation of your political philosophy.

[Gorham's Cave @Captain_Gorham]

@lfwons_eka You don't honestly think that approach is going to change or open a single mind, do you? All you're doing is digging people deeper into their existing positions. Try again after you reach (mental) adulthood. Until then, this cause would be much better served by your silence.

@Timcast Antifa are just infantile hoodlums playing dress-up to act out narcissistic fantasies of being communist revolutionaries. But this generation of child-adults will imperil every bulwark of individual liberty to recreate the authoritarian cocoon of their youth.#DayCareTotalitarians

@TulsiGabbard Any libertarian who doesn't welcome this kind of pro-freedom, pro-Constitution sentiment from any politician—but especially from a Democrat in the current political climate—has lost perspective.

I'm not speaking to her other positions, but this is a damn good one.

[Gorham's Cave @Captain_Gorham]

@CHIMPSINSOCKS Translation: she's a human shield for your ideological campaign.

[Gorham's Cave @Captain_Gorham]

@UzeHerName @RamirezJaneIam Why, thank you!

[Gorham's Cave @Captain_Gorham]

@manny_ottawa But she is right: having a U.S. president meet with a 16 year old girl to solve or understand any problem would be a waste.

[Gorham's Cave @Captain_Gorham]

@RamirezJaneIam I'm so sorry that, among homo sapiens having lighter skin tones, some are such dupes as to fall for your bullshit.

@JusticewithScot @ABCthedrum @DavidLeser And let's not forget historical deaths from draft / military service, virtually 100%.

@JaniceFiamengo I remember when a philosophy degree was considered a valuable degree by employers, a sign of intelligence and an adaptable, nimble mind. That was before the absolute dumbest people on the planet (HR) were tasked with hiring.

@charlieluffagus Profanely awful & pointless: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (Depp's remake of Gene Wilder's brilliant performance)

@rangermonk1 Is that an ancient Taoist parable?

[Gorham's Cave @Captain_Gorham]

@The_LockeSmith @bullshitsniffer As easy as it is to laugh at nutty SJWs, make no mistake, they are dangerous en masse. Not themselves personally, but just give them the firepower of government, and millions may one day die. It's precisely these kinds of unhinged cult minds that lead to totalitarian violence.
