If you're not going to even consider the possibility that your premise could be wrong, then just don't even debate at all. It wastes everyone's time.
But thanks for the petty "hurr hurr libruls always do that" attack anyways. Typical closed minded conservative crap. See, I can do it too!

Childish is avoiding the obvious point of the debate in favor of "gotcha" rebuttals that don't actually serve to counter the actual point being made. Even moreso considering that my entire point was about modern government in the first place, as evidenced by the PRIOR PARAGRAPH which cited the Great Lakes commissions.
To wit, however:
"Oh NO, he said NEVER!"
"Wait - he's wrong because it's really rare!"
"We got him now!"
Mookie - that's childish.
