    Again, no link to the story, just a guy on Twitter who says something happened and therefore it must be true.

    What do you think is more likely? That schools have litter boxes because some students think they’re animals? Or because it’s part of their school shooter response kit?

    Bear in mind, we’ve got all kinds of evidence of school shootings, but nobody seems to have been able to produce a single photo of a litter box for students.

    It doesn’t matter what I think. If I pulled this shit of not posting links to credible articles, according to leftforge, I’d be mocked endlessly for it and don’t even try and denying it.

    What’s that you always say? “If you don’t like the claims, you attack the source.”? You get your ass handed to you because you post stupid shit and instead of admitting that you were wrong when people provide credible links, you double down on your idiocy.

    What does cat litter have to do with a school shooting? Genuinely confused here.

    School lockdowns can last hours. People gotta pee and don’t want to have to risk getting shot as they run to the bathroom or outside.

    Additionally, it’s a quick way to deal with a lot of blood on the floor.

    My friend told me that Ukraine was losing the war. No need to verify this or provide and links to credible sources, right? I can just make shit up like @Diacanu does without question, right?

    I can just call @14thDoctor ’s mom a Nazi and everyone will be okay with that because @Bailey assures me that’s not personal attacks.

    Your friend told me she's trans, and that she tells you what you want to hear about Ukraine because she's scared you'll hurt her. :(
    I told her "don't worry, he couldn't put a fist dent in a Ziploc bag full of marshmallow fluff". :yes:

    Well, I wouldn’t call his mom a Nazi because I don’t want to stoop to his level.

    When you've been previously banned for deciding to put on a Nazi costume you probably shouldn't try to play the moral superiority game.

    Also @Bill Carson I don't really know what you're referring to. I just did a search and the only exchange we've had in the last couple of years using the phrase "personal attack" was you claiming that most of the time when people disagree with you it's a personal attack.

    If your standard for personal attack is people just not seeing how you are clearly correct then harden the fuck up snowflake.

    That's a great example of someone who has made a public stand that his family shouldn't be above being called out just because they are his family. Thanks for sharing.

    My standard for a personal attack is when people call my mom a Nazi or they heavily imply that I'm a pedophile because that person thinks I work at Subway because he doesn't know what he's talking about.

    I'm referring more to the fact that you claimed I would say such things weren't personal attacks.

    However I am happy with your clarification that you have now come around to agreeing that most disagreements with you are not personal attacks.

    Yeah and I apologized for using that avatar because I used a stupid rationale for doing so and I realized how it could affect Wordforge as a whole, yet you and others never hesitate to shove it right back in my face. People here don't know any of my family members and therefore shouldn't be calling my family members Nazis or Nazi supporters. If I thought that someone I'm close with were Nazis I wouldn't associate with them anymore. Harry is a public figure who's great uncle was a (real) Nazi sympathizer so his family is fair game, IMO. That being said, I have nothing but the upmost respect for Queen Elizabeth II.

    Most disagreement aren't personal attack, but often times they accompanied with personal attacks.

    1. Yes you apologized.
    2. I believe that you are not actually a Nazi and took a joke way too far.
    3. It's absolutely fair to bring it back up when you act high and mighty pretending you're above doing such things.

    On the subject of this thread, you have argued that what people want to be called doesn't matter, no matter how much pain or damage it causes them, so...

    Two things can be true at the same time. I'm sure the US. government will get to the bottom of who blew up that pipeline just like the LAPD is still looking for who stole The Dude's car.

    And if the US and every government but Russia says that the US government isn't responsible for the pipeline explosion, you'll accept the evidence, I'm sure. :dayton:
