Think of the two space shuttles that exploded. One was on the way to space and one was on the way home from space. I would rather be on the one going home.

Of course it won't be 100% effective but damn it's a good idea and you have to rip the Band-Aid off somewhere.
I just wonder how long it will take the kids will find a workaround.
Besides children, the people who really don't like this would be ped0ph1les and perverts.
I’m only stating facts. There is no way to enforce this ban. It’s all for show, and nothing more. It’s the moral equivalent of wishing on a star.
This is the moral equivalent to what they’re doing in Australia: A person is swimming twenty-five yards out in the water, when he suddenly realizes he can’t make it back to shore.
He sees people on the beach and he begins to call to them just as he begins struggling to stay afloat.
The people on shore hear his cries and look out on the water and locate the struggling person.
But, instead of heading out on the water to effect his rescue, they all begin praying that he gets saved. They all pray really, really hard.
And, he slips under the water and drowns.
Here’s what they all say afterward: Well, we did something. At least we tried.
Same thing.
Same Same
They can now claim, with puffed up chests, “Look, everyone! We did something,” even though it’s totally and utterly meaningless!
However, if we accept that this is whistling in the wind, then, as a very smart man, what do you recommend should be done short of shutting down the internet?
In a perfect world, more parents would be more attentive and protective of their children. This is not a perfect world, however. People are flawed.
The ironic part is that government is made up solely of people. As stated above, people are flawed.
Why should we, then, trust government to always do the right thing, if the people in it are just as imperfect as the rest of us?
One thing is for sure: we can always trust the government to make a bad situation worse. Not even religion has had the ability to make the world right, and religion has been around far longer than government. The problem with religion, is the same as the problem with government: there are people involved in it.
A problem exists, and government’s solution, more often than not, is to make feel-good empty gestures for bragging rights, that is, when it's not trampling all over human rights. Doing “something" then becomes justification for spending more of our hard-earned money, just to micro-manage our lives.
The solution is to stop wanting the government to fix our lives and to take responsibility for ourselves. Modern societies have become far too reliant on government to solve their problems. That nonsense must stop, because government, whether through sheer incompetence or maliciousness, will ultimately be the end of human dignity and the death of humanity.
Anarchists want the world to burn. They produce nothing but misery. I want the world to be protected, because I live in it. I merely don’t want the State to tell me how I should live my life, so long as I am harming no one.
It’s not a black and white world. Why do you seem to insist that it is by labeling me an anarchist? Do you actually believe that there are only two sides in this issue: total submission/dependency or total anarchy?
Okay, you are not an anarchist. I didn’t label you. Thanks for that clarification. It was more of a question by me than a statement, but, you are a conservative, right leaning, citizen, right? So, let me ask you, what do you think of the EPA, the WHO, abortion, gun control, conservation laws, and treatment of illegal aliens? Because, in my book, many people want to live their lives in a cocoon where they don’t care about their neighbors. They just, and I quote, “don’t want the State to tell me how I should live my life, so long as I am harming no one.”
And no, I don’t believe “ that there are only two sides in this issue: total submission/dependency or total anarchy?” and I never said that. I notice you project to conclusions that are not what I’ve written (I do that too, sometimes 🤣
Why is it always a worst case scenario?
Government has been usurping the family unit for decades now. Look at the cities with the worst crime statistics. The family units are virtually non-existent in those communities, because government stepped in and told people, “You can’t do this alone. We’re here to help.”
You destroyers just can’t leave things alone.
Those family units that are virtually non-existent are a huge problem. I agree, but, without Big Government, how do you propose we deal with it? And before you say there’s too much red tape and waste of resources (and I agree with that), remember, nothing is perfect but something has to be done. Individual help is needed but it’s nowhere enough. Government help has to be.
Why not a blanket ban for all users.

licksipsuckit.....Lix...you, like Bella, Dgraff, Phart and several others, got it wrong. I don't choose to "suck up your arses now and feed off the dags you feed her". I choose to visit Bella's forum site because her site is usually the only site that has some interesting topics. The forums are full of innate threads that belong in the heads of overheated male brains. You, on the other hand, seldom participate in the forums and never under your account name. For a long time I was a champion of the people that got trashed by Bella's crowd and you was a big recipient of my effort to fight trashing of my friends. It turns out it was for nothing. Lix, you've got your opinions on what I'm doing now. Frankly, I don't give a rat's ass what they are and that is the same about anyone else. Bella, Dgraff, Phart, Jamie, or all the other members that may or may not want to be friendly, they can all kiss my ass. I'm doing AND ENJOYING, my time on the site. Just an aside......Phart, who almost always has opinions totally opposite to mine, is usually the nicest to me.
As far as needing someone to defend me for some of the shit posted about or against me, I think the site knows that when my ire is molested, I don't take prisoners. So, in honor of what I considered a friendship, you, and Dgraff can keep out of my existence on site.
Just so you understand, I do NOT have influence over what members post here and/or what they say about others. I would prefer that members don't take pot shots at her in this thread and I've gone as far as asking members to be nice. For you to address her post in another thread and toss my name into the mix only opens the door for her to use me as target practice and there was no need for that.
I don't feel like I've come at you with an attitude and I can hope that we can keep the non combatative momentum going.
Surely, you are not that foggy minded or clueless about your friend's response to you, are you? It might be tricky but I'm sure you can sort it out. She wrote;
"hey, don't explain anything to me, Im not the self appointed site police and I really cant bothered to read what you've written after the word CUNT AND DIRTBAG on the first line, theyre only worth pissing on in my opinion *lix*"
This is where it gets tricky because she made reference to your "first line". No worries, I will simplify it for you. You wrote;
"Lix...you, like Bella (referred to as CUNT), Dgraff (referred to as DIRTBAG), Phart and several others, blah, blah, blah....
AGAIN, I will kindly request that you do not publicly discuss me or mention me to your friend. Thank you.

And yes, I am that foggy. I choose to be that way. You and Lix are two sides of the same coin. I don’t care if you can or can not control the other members. What ever those dip shits have to say is for me to deal with. I have tried to stay out of your way and to be honest, I like how things are working out. As far as Lix, well, she’s as good or bad as you and your bunch. Leave me out of your petty squabbles
But he had several places he checked for table scraps and he was on his way over here when he got the sqaush.
poor things aint got any sense.I mean,I almost hit the dumbass with the golf cart!
Well Lixy pixy spoiled meat pie I didn’t lie I’ve read your posts before and you care about no one but your self and the one woman that stuck up for you you kicked to the curb that one woman was candy or were you to stupid to realize that
Make what you will with it. As I said before, I don't give a rat's ass what ANYBODY thinks about me anymore on site. I will try to ignore innuendos, half truths and bitchy members.
I do not understand what TWOWARM feels she has to say to that woman that concerns me. Each and everytime my name is dropped in any of her posts, her friend uses it as an opportunity to call me a cunt.
There also seems to be a correlation to the prominent member slamming me when dgraff starts in on the prominent member, too.
DON'T START NO SHIT AND THERE WILL BE NO SHIT.

Right now it’s just me and muggsy watching tv so I’m deviling muggsy but he loves it
Your post struck a nerve with the prominent member and she referred to as a DIRTBAG but not before she took a swing at me.
