    Use of the word 'gay'...

    Yeah actually, disregard that, I didn't read the article, and given the 11 year old's mother reported "weekly pleas to the school to address the problem", the lack of response is criminally negligent.

    So you think you want a motorcycle?

    Yeah, the first two broken bolts in my clutch boss came out smooth as. The third one broke my 'easy out' off inside the bolt :mad1: Nothing to grip to twist it out. Trying riets idea of drilling it from the other side, which I have access to, but I think the drill will just hit the 'easy...

    Use of the word 'gay'...

    I don't think it's too good, if third parties can be in considered liable in the event of a suicide, regardless of how bad their abuse was. And calling someone names, really... The school can't be expected to protect people from self-harm at all times.

    Pedophile Ferguson can't be forced to move

    Where is he supposed to go, he's been chased out of so many neighbourhoods. I feel pity for him.

    Gay friends

    It's okay to be homophobic. I don't know why it's hard to admit. You just don't like it. I don't like girls that wear oversized belts around their waist over a dress, fat people and children. So long as you keep your hatred to yourself, you're a reasonable, non-violent person and don't fuck...

    What is the moral justification for the state?

    Why is the creation of complementary obligations bad? The creation of heavy requirements for those receiving welfare I fully support, such as the requirements to be seeking work, and to accept any job offer. The individual described above would be forced to make a sincere effort in applying for...

    What is the moral justification for the state?

    The bureaucratic costs are unfortunate, but I don't think they substantially change the equation which favors wealth redistribution.

    What is the moral justification for the state?

    I think utility isn't as simple as 'majority rules'. If 90% choose to kill 10%, there is a substantial cost to the 10%, for a limited benefit to the 90%, so the overall utility is reduced. There are scales of happiness involved. The suffering of the 10% is immense, where the happiness of the 90%...

    What is the moral justification for the state?

    Aside from that being a slippery slope fallacy, these are practical issues and have nothing to do with whether a basic level of welfare is moral. The government will always fuck up welfare, going too far, but suppose they got it just right? That'd be mad. Practically, war is certain to worsen...

    What is the moral justification for the state?

    Why should property rights override the rights of others to health and welfare? Suppose entirely due to luck, our effort and labor being equal, I manage to come into wealth, while my neighbour suffers misfortune and poverty. If my neighbour is starving and I have an abundance of food, why is...

    Loneliness of the university Liberal

    Inspired books get banned in Australia all the time, that no decent person could object to. Like this one The Peaceful Pill Handbook - Google Books

    What is the moral justification for the state?

    How do you believe a legal system (covering property rights etc.) should be enforced and administrated, if not by a government? I think your premise, that a government implicitly involves force, is false. Where the government is responsible for administration only in regards to upholding...

    So you think you want a motorcycle?

    My advice to new riders- Ride unlicensed, you'll probably get away with it if you stay off main roads. Most 250cc bikes have very little power and if you buy one you'll have to spend money upgrading to a proper bike in month. At least get a 600cc sportsbike, if not a litre, so you won't have...

    So you think you want a motorcycle?

    How are they going to check your licence when you have 400kw/tonne. I've never actually had my licence checked ever and I constantly flout the law. I spent a couple of months riding an unregistered bike daily around newcastle. Should have just ridden unlicenced tbh, save money.

    Should boat people be granted immigration status?

    Immigration creates jobs and businesses. Refugees aren't inherently tainted and worse than any other immigrants. Opposition to boat people, but not to European immigration, comes purely from ignorant xenophobia. Abolish minimum wage, open the borders, see local manufacturing and industry boom.

    Loneliness of the university Liberal

    How utterly talentless are the liberal club at Usyd that such a hopeless joke could become president? The whole long, 'anti-bias @ uni' campaign they've been running for years makes them look unbelievably childish. Grow up.
