Legacy Fan Posted December 16, 2014 Report Share Posted December 16, 2014 2) It is a graphic with an explosion /flames in the back and absolutely no source or reference. All that is meant to be is fear mongering. No one should trust anything like that. All its serves to do is provide "evidence" for people that just want to hear what they believe.Maybe if you had a different response when presented with actual verified legitimate data that you still disagree with (well, other than ignoring it)??

Not saying it is for sure incorrect, but nothing in that very scary graphic gave any indication that it was legitimate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLD Woody Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 He drives a 2013 Ford Fusion with a kick ass sound system!! And lives in Ft. Wayne, Indiana! and I don't constantly lose my keys or forget what I was doing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLD Woody Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 And all your repetitive hahaha scary horseshit responses serve to do is what exactly? WSS about as much as 90% of the posts on here. The idea that it is just me is laughable. I've seen enough "charts and figures" like that over the last few years that have absolutely no evidence to back them up. If people want this to be a real political board, with real debates, posting figures without any references does nothing to add to that conversation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MLD Woody Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 You miss quite a bit. Re - read my post. Focus on the word "when" When do I have that response to "actual legitimate verified data"? Are we considering "Mexicans killed this many today" or "Muslims killed this many today" data? Sure, those stories could be true, it doesn't change the fact it is just a fear mongering article. That's what half of these threads are based on. As far as that figure posted here, it is meaningless without a source. Not saying those numbers are 100% wrong, but they don't support any argument. It is just typical chain email bullshit.

MLD Woody Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 Well that's a high bar you've set. WSS Bullshit in. Bullshit out. Why type out a "legitimate" response to a BS post that will just be responded to with more BS. Actual, thoughtful posts. Sure, why not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westside Steve Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 actually most of these outrage based posts are verifiable. Yes, woody, these things happen. I don't know what it legitimate response might be but it would seem legitimacy would be something other than hahaha scary brown people. I'm not sure there is a good response by the way.

"yes, that's awful. I hope for the best for the victims and families. And for justice for the criminals. Etc etc" No shit the stories are awful. That's not why they're being posted here. They're being posted for fear mongering. I refuse to fall into that. Overblown fear mongering wont get me to vote a certain way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blowe Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 Cal did you know that Obama's dick has shriveled up to be 5% shorter since he entered office? See? I can also come up with phoney and uncited information too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overblown fear mongering wont get me to vote a certain way. Well if I may, some sort of overblown fear mongering relates to the way each of us votes. It's just in these cases you may notice I don't bother to comment. I don't think any comment is worth making. Not the ones about killing the sand people and not the ones about hahaha. But don't kid yourself we all have our own version of big serious trouble. WSS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can all have our own versions, sure, but each is based in different amounts of reality and factual evidence as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is just typical chain email bullshit. For starters, anytime a gun control debate breaks out, you not-so-casually ignore facts you disagree with. Maybe other topics - since this thread was about guns, it jogged my memory. A read on the UK gun ban and why you need analyze stats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLD Woody Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 I don't ignore any facts I disagree with. Forget, maybe. But not ignore Unless you're considering Cal's google search and figure "facts", then I can't help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
