Reply to Vaccine To Autism Was A Fraud in Current Events JoeUser Forums

The rate of autism is the same between kids that recieved the vaccine and those that didn't. The same. The same. If the vaccine increased the rate of autism how is the rate the same between the kids that got it and those that didn't? Please answer me that. If the rates in Denmark have spiked they have spiked in the same way for un-vaccinated kids as for vaccinated kids, given that the rates of austism are the same between them. Well

Well seeing as half a MILLION children were followed in Denmark and the those that didn't have the vaccine actually had the same rate (in fact those had had the vaccine was very slightly less although not statically significant) than those who didn't I recon the evidence is in.

In the UK there were several cases of people convicted of IRA bombings who had 'confessed' to the crime and were later proved to be completly and utterly innocent. As far as my understand of the USA legal system goes if somebody kills somebody by accident they will not be killed by the state. Those cases I listed were (in the main) one's where a jury decided on the evidence shown to them to be guilty even though they were not and the legal system later proved they w

These death row inmate who have subsequently been released probably disagree with the hastening of the process. I would also image that there were a number of people killed who deserved the process being more though. 1973. 1. David Keaton Florida (Keaton v. State, 273 So.2d 385 (1973)). Convicted 1971. 1974 2.

It caused shock waves because her IQ was so low. The difference between 72 and 70 is basically impossible to tell apart using IQ tests as they are unreliable and have a huge history of misapplication. The woman getting killed by the state while the actual killer didn't also threw up a lot of 'confusion',

Sensible discussion is can also be rather boring, which makes the more immediately impacting TV/news story - the foaming at the mouth rabble rouser (of any persuasion) or a nuanced dicussion of all the factors behind a certain issue? No doubt that the second is the 'better' one but people don't turn on in droves to listen to it. This is just an example that I know - I realise that both sides use it.

People have the right for fair and equal treatment and the USA that is a clearly defined right. It would agaisnt that right to not allow homosexuals the privilege to drive (for example) based on nothing other than their homosexuality or banning ex-service men the privilege of a driving linceanse. Being able to drive isn't a right but preventing a certain group from doing it based on purely on a class group would violate that groups fair and equal treatment right. Banning peo

Reply to Should speech really be so free? in Current Events Stardock Forums

That could easily be used to restrict speech in other places and other ways though couldn't it? Eg lease the land outside an abortion clinic during hours of operation. It is just the case just during funerals of service men then you would have to potential cover a huge area and the practicality could be a problem - eg turn all the surrounding land private could potentially prevent non-funeral related traffic couldn't it?

My point is that the essence of the case (as I understand that people who want gay marriage) is if it is a right to marry somebody you love - or the person of the other sex. And there is a hell of a difference between homosexuals marrying and people marrying animals or their siblings and allowing homosexuals to marry would not lead to people being allowed to marry animals - after all allowing people to marry people of the other sex did not allow people to marry siblings or animals of t
