    you are fat
    your dog smells like dead gerbil farts
    you dont know what you are talking about
    i hate you
    get out


    is any of that wildly innapropriate?
    probably all of it

    also, is it a troll if the insult is random, totally unreasonable and directed at a member who no one dislikes in any way?
    probably

    "If the policy of the government, upon vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court...the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned the government into the hands of that eminent tribunal."

    The Org is the only place for me. Don't have much time online each night so I may as well concentrate it in one spot.

    The .org is a good place to discuss politics. Most debaters are mature and well researched.

    I only discuss politics here. I used to post a fair deal on the metal board for my city, but I don't anymore. Even when I did, there were little-to-no politics involved.

    I debate politics here but not maths.
    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

    I used to debate on thehistorychannel.co.uk, but now since I'm on here I don't there very often any more.

    I like the company alot here, but the politics really isn't that great, I don't think. I've seen much better and much worse, but this is the only place where I can speak with quite so many different nationalities, but the commonground is a video game. Not just politics as a sole interest.
