No wonder they want to ban Mark Twain. I seem to recall something about ‘Liars, d@mned Liars, and Statisticians’.

Deaths as a result of "gun violence" = homicides + fatal accidents + suicides.

2/3 are suicides, and there is a huge difference between people who don't want to die, and people who do want to die.

The liberals who keep pointing to this made-up statistic invariably favor "assisted suicide".

Very good additions.

Two things I have learned as an adult. Liberalism is a religious belief system. Its adherents (liberals) operate almost exclusively out of emotions and are almost incapable of rational thought. They have constructed a vast illusion of reality based upon their emotions and what they sincerely think reality should be. Such as, “If only we are nice to radical Islamists they will like us and not blow us up.” “If only Christians were more tolerant we could Coexist peacefully.”

And the height of irony is that they feeeeeel that they are being logical when they argue from that emotion-based perspective.

11. “Public Schooling and higher “education” will create geniuses. LOL. Genius is being able to throw OUT the indoctrination of the “schooling” and return to Natural Law Theory (the Natural Family and the brilliant Western Civilization Christian worldview which created Modern Science and Romance and Chivalry and natural unity/freedom for all.

That abuse thing on super bowl Sunday? Ha! Who even pays attention to their wives on super bowl Sunday? ;-) (Just kidding ladies!)

As for the 10% gay thing...bunk. Of all the people I know or have known well enough to know what their sexual preferences are... I'd say the rate is around 1% maybe even less.

That’s the fun part, when they say something utterly stupid and then look at you with the certain knowledge that they have just made an utter fool of YOU. One amateur liberal I know says that she has found proof that people are born gay and it is not a choice. Hahahahahahahahaha, sorry, every time I think of this I can’t stop laughing. Anyway, she says that there are documented cases of identical twin brothers in which one turns out gay and the other is straight and hahahahahahaha, sorry, lost control again, that PROVES that it is NOT a choice it is something they are born with. That is perfect liberal logic, any sane person would know that IF THAT PROVES ANYTHING, it would prove the exact opposite of what she says. Liberal women should all wear a red queen costume so you can recognize their madness at a distance. Liberal men should all be confined to mental institutions, their propensity to kill anyone who disagrees with them makes them too dangerous to run around loose. Honestly I would not be surprised to have a liberal offer to prove to me that the Sun rises in the West and sets in the South.
