Nope, it’s a picture of you, making room for some of your ‘friends’ on this board.

Nice list, but nothing about integrity, honor, speaking out against evil. Hmmm… now, where do virtue and vice come from? I believe Aristotle’s ideas are the best: You are, by definition, a rational being.
Whatever maintains or improves you as a rational being is the GOOD. What ever detracts or weakens you as a rational being is EVIL. Virtue and vice proceed from these axioms.
The morality of the parasite, the morality that allows stealing from helpless victims (aka taxpayers) to benefit others, is not appropriate for rational beings and is therefore evil.
YOU’RE a helpless victim? No, you’re an annoying, undereducated troll with no endogenous T.
This is a helpless victim:

Wow, it’s picture day! Here is Harris, on his way to post another of his brilliant non-responses.

You lie about my post, ignore everything I say, then all you can say is the above?
Prof, yours is the guilt beyond forgiveness. You have the capacity to know, you have the ability to think and to know better, and yet you agree with these guys. A doctor, a scientist, who sells his soul to go along with the unthinking mob – that is guilt beyond forgiveness.
I, of course, don’t know who you really are. However, I am religious. Someday, someone other that me will judge your work. I suspect that you will not be forgiven.

Sweet! My answers “defy description”! If someone like you can’t understand what I’m saying, that means I’m doing my job.
I don’t want you seeing eye to eye with me. If you ever said, “You know Irish, I agree with this post” it might scare me into suicide. Lol. You are a crazy bastard.
And to Prof. X- following the mob is REPREHENSIBLE! You proletariat parasite scum! REPREHENSIBLE!
Headhunter, the village just called. They want their idiot back.
Hey man, where are you from? I want to know. Because if it is subjected to a natural disaster, I don’t want my tax dollars going into rebuilding anything around there.
Oh yeah, the tax dollars that I will be forced into giving.

I’m from New Jersey – and let me tell you: if disaster strikes one of our jewels, like Camden or Newark, you will not see any of us marching through the streets, bitching and whining for other people to come and save us. We raise REAL men here. We would rebuild Camden, for example, brick by brick and stone by stone, by our own efforts. And if there is some reason to not rebuild, like being under sea level in a hurricane zone, we don’t care. After all, we are REAL men and we’re more powerful than any hurricane or ocean. Let it come, heh, heh!!! We’re ready!
You would see how REAL it is when 90% of what was there would be gone the next day. No homes, no trees, no electricity, no gas, no gasoline, no radio, no TV, no roads (in some cases).
There is a tremendous issue with the welfare problems this state has been allowed to create. If this is what you are reffering to, state that appropriately. To not rebuild a major city because of a natural disaster is plain wrong.
Don’t make a claim of what the REAL men of New Jersey would do in a situation they have never been exposed to. Oh, and the price of bricks will quadruple because of the shortage.
My new new neighbors are from New Orleans. He is a retired OB/GYN and she is a labor and delivery specialist. They lost their home to Katrina, everything on the bottom floor was gone. What they worked for all their lives is gone.
They had evacuated to a friend’s home in Crowley (about 100 miles from N.O.). When the hospital she worked at reopened they opted to rent a house closer to N.O. to make the commute.
To say these people are parasites without ever knowing them is shameful.
Your Jewel

Sure, I’ll bite.
As an outsider to this thread, a passive observer, I have a few thoughts.
I agree with alot of things headhunter has been saying. Despite the occasional misstep (fx the “real men of jersey” or whatever post), his arguments ring true. Headhunter has been putting forth some questions in this thread and they largely go unanswered.
But there is no lack of personal assault on his person (goes both ways!). Alot of his haters have brought up good points also, but it all goes very much around the topic without addressing it.
I’m not american, but these are my own thoughts about the topic:
-
Why is taxation neccesary to fund rebuilding?
-
If I grew up living there and one day decided “hey, its fkn stupid to live here. Some day, a hurricane is gonna own this place. Those levees suck” and moved out, I’d still be paying extra tax to those who didnt move out. Why?
-
Helping the poor is cool. I donated money to Katrina victims. I did this willingly and I would NOT like it if I was forced.
-
Shouldnt the city itself have a “piggy pank” for disaster rebuilding, seeing as it was inevitable?
So yes, professor, there are those who sway to headhunters side in this argument, mainly because his questions are valid and go unanswered.
p.s. on this page, everyones posts are beginning to rapidly deteriorate.

Your alternative to rebuilding an entire American city is what, extra wishes?
Let me inform you of the Cumbre Vieja Volcano on the Island of La Palma. It is said that future eruption that could happen over the next few generations would send a tsunami towards North America completely destroying every single major city on the Eastern Coast. That includes New York, Miami and everything in between. Here is more info
[quote]
Geological evidence suggests that during a future
eruption, Cumbre Vieja Volcano on the Island of La Palma
may experience a catastrophic failure of its west flank, dropping
150 to 500 km3 of rock into the sea. Using a geologically
reasonable estimate of landslide motion, we model tsunami
waves produced by such a collapse. Waves generated by the
run-out of a 500 km3 (150 km3) slide block at 100 m/s could
transit the entire Atlantic Basin and arrive on the coasts of the
Americas with 10-25 m (3-8 m) height.[/quote]
According to you, if someone moved out of New York because of this, they should be excluded from any of the rebuilding that will take place after such a cataclysmic event. What you don’t seem to understand, is that if every major event were actually treated that way, there would eventually be no America. By your own logic, every man and woman living on the East Coast is a dumbass for not moving immediately and keeping that area clear of people until that event takes place.

3. Helping the poor is cool. I donated money to Katrina victims. I did this willingly and I would NOT like it if I was forced.[/quote]
You aren’t American. This is about loyalty to your own country…a loyalty that doesn’t seem to stop many from sending men and women off to war, but apparently finds it an insult to help people through taxes.
[quote]
4. Shouldnt the city itself have a “piggy pank” for disaster rebuilding, seeing as it was inevitable?[/quote]
Read above. WHEN that happens, how big do you think the piggy bank should be? Many are accusing the American government of not taking the threat from that possible Tsunami as anything important. By your own logic, the entire American govenment is guilty of not preparing for possible future danger to that degree.
[quote]

I just answered them. According to Headhunter, he lives on the East Coast, therefore he is in the exact same boat as the people who lost everything in New Orleans. I would love to see him turn down assistance should that happen in his life time.
If a disaster strikes the east coast of the United States, why doesn’t our wonderful federal government call on all americans and ASK (repeat that word several times, until it sinks in: ASK, ASK, ASK,…) the rest of the country to donate to recovery? Why use tax dollars, which people are FORCED to pay for this effort?
There is a difference in treating people with respect and ASKING, rather than simply forcing them to pay someone else’s bills. Isn’t it better to treat people as beings worthy of freedom and respect, instead of as cattle to be milked?
Goddamnit, I’m simply saying people should be free to make choices and you guys use the vilest insults on me.
Here, Prof, use this post of why I should be in your 'Troll Hall of Fame."

Isn’t better for all to realize that as a country, we work better in unity towards the common good of society rather than acting as if life is some free for all “get yours and screw everyone else” act of simply hoarding for personal gain? I do realize that the republican party lately seems to have taken the stance that money is the goal in life. I am hoping many are beginning to realize how destructive that attitude can be in the long run if it weighs heavier than all else.

Have you even been to your precious Camden lately? It does need to be rebuilt. It has the highest murder rate in the U.S., and is filled with one condemed tenament after another. If a natural disaster did strike, I bet the social conditions would very much mirror NOLA. They already do. Where are all the great NJ men rolling up their sleaves to help?

Professor, I am not making this up and it is not meant to insult you at all: What you just said is almost verbatim from a speech by Adolph Hitler (especially your first sentence). I’m not kidding and I’m not out to insult you at all. I’ve read quite a bit of history and the roots of the Third Reich is a big interest. I will search and find a link. You will be shocked.

This was a parody and was for Harris to chew on. I am from Ohio. If you read any of the thread prior to this, you’d know all of this.
I’m amazed how many guys come on here, don’t do their homework (aka read the thread) and then spout at me.
I’ve noticed this phenomenon in some of my students as well. Making connections seems to be a talent that many lack; they do not connect the previous material to what we are doing that day.

Okay, I did bite on that one. I knew you said you were from Ohio, but this is the internet, stories change frequently. I try to go with the current one. You could at least say thanks for me helping strengthen your parody.

Hitler killed people in the sake of advancing the “master race”. Unless you are about to show that my post equates to murder and evil equaling the damage done by that one man, you have no point other than showing that you refuse to acknowledge the point made to you.

Can we at least agree on the fact that taxes are here to stay? I hope so.
Can we agree that the entire nation cannot be run on VOLUNTARY donations? I hope so.
Is your issue that you want the government to ASK you every time they spend some money? Does that seem rational? Again, that’s what our voted representatives are there for.
So, pretty please with sugar on top, explain coherently what your vision of the country is regarding how our tax money is spent.
Would you like somebody to give you a phone call and say “Mr. Headhunter, we were thinking about spending on this, what do you think?”?
I mean, really, we understand your problem. What’s your SOLUTION?
