Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.

The following things are not grounds for murder:

Rules:

  1. Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
  2. Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
  3. No bigotry of any kind.
  4. Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
  5. If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
  6. Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

Remember who you are, American.

You mean the sons and daughters of immigrants? People who invaded and stole land from the people who were already living here? People who murdered and slaughtered innocent women and children for two centuries in order to legitimize our ownership of said land?

Hey not me, I'm first Gen. I would happily go back to where they came from if they didn't make it so damn impossible to claim nationality. But they do because they don't want us back. During the first trump term I went through the trouble of even contacting lawyers to see if it was possible but I don't qualify.
