You told me I want to wait for the mushroom cloud before acting, this is not true.

I do not believe Iran will use a Nuclear bomb. You disagree, I can cope with this. No need to slander.

 

Stop agreeing with me. You said "I do not believe Iran will use a nuclear bomb" I said "so you are willing to wait for a mushroom cloud to be proven wrong"

Where have I misquoted you? When a mushroom cloud appears, you will be wrong. You are agreeing with me, you just do not like it. That's all.

 

You did not say anything about "war". Re-read your own post.

OWNED>...

 

Is every discussion about trying to OWN someone?

 

If you do a search on 'dentists suicide', your gonna find pretty much the same....
Point?

 

Oh well. You and I both know what I meant. And even though you say you dont, you do.

Fact is, the US is the only country to have used nukes in war. Yet we still have the most of them.

 

No, sometimes it just happens...

 

Its not the same. You think its the same, you want it to be the same. Its not the same. The numbers are shockingly different. The rate for dentists is not shocking, you will not be shocked. We are disputing widely known facts, lets leave it at that.

If you want to know my point then read my original post instead of contesting something that you actually dont know anything about.

Why are you trying to play down the issue with war-veteran suicide rates? Whats your issue?

 

No, I only know what you stated. I am not a mind reader.

And your point on this is? The US did not make a decision to use them lightly, and they never used them in an offensive measure. Using them in WWII (a Democrat no less) did so to end the war. Not using them would have meant at least another 500,000 lives lost and years of fighting.

If you are in the US, have you ever taken a history class? Are you still in grade school? You might want to read up a bit on the history of the Atomic Bomb (Manhattan Project), and just why they were used.

 

Odd how right after this, I get a negative rep on the main discussion boards with a misspelling of "nukes".

Thanks!

 

Some people just cant cope with opposing views without having to lash out with attacks.

 

500,000 lives of SOLDIERS. As far as I'm concerned a soldiers life is worth less than 49580982350995043095849895083 civilians.

Soldiers join knowing the risks, knowing they could die. They can get out from going to war. Innocent civilians dont deserve to die to save soldiers lives.

 

Yeah, pretty much the same. Suicide is Suicide... The causes are listed below for your reading pleasure. (dictionary.com will help you with the big words).

I guess I don't know much about suicide, admittedly, I've not experienced it yet.

Suicide generally occurs because:

Causes of suicide

No single factor has gained acceptance as a universal cause of suicide. However, Clinical depression is a common phenomenon amongst those who commit suicide. Other factors that may be related are as follows:

• Pain (e.g. physical agony that is not correctable)
• Stress (e.g. Grief after a death)
• Crime (e.g. escaping judicial punishment)
• Mental illness and disability(e.g. clinical depression, bipolar disorder,Psychological trauma and schizophrenia)
• Catastrophic Injury (e.g. paralysis, disfigurement, loss of limb)
• Substance abuse
• Adverse environment (e.g. poverty, homelessness, discrimination, bullying)
• Financial loss (e.g. gambling addiction, loss of employment/assets, stock market crash, debts)
• Unresolved human sexuality (e.g. sexual orientation,unrequited love, aftermath of a break up)
• Copycat suicide

(from wikipedia)

Don't see anything in there specific to the Faukland Islands. Hey, don't cry for me MisterMix...

 

That was civilian and non-civilian. Take a US History Course dude.

It's innocent civilians Truman was thinking of when he gave the order. Take a US Histoy Course.

 

And while we're on it. The atomic bombs dropped on Japan were acts of terror.

"Terrorism is a term used to describe violence or other harmful acts committed (or threatened) against civilians"

 

let me go back a few steps here and correct a blatant lie.

America never used Nuclear weapons in a war. We used Atomic.

 

So you've looked at a wiki page about suicide? Wow. I guess that proves your point. Actually, you didn't have a point. You just seem to be contesting things for no apparrant reason.

All you are trying to do is appear knowledgeable. You look really intelligent when you roll your eyes.

Good bye MIA

 

I think mix is a tad bit upset you caught it in yet, another liberal lie.

tsk tsk liberal. but we've come to expect it of the left, so no shock.. and, you havent fallen any lower in the books.

 

Do yourself a favor and take a US History Course.

Someone's been eating their Weaties!

Well, I gave you a source. You gave me nothing but your opinion.

Are you going to commit suicide?

 

I believe Mia is making the point that correlation does not prove causation.

Even if suicide rates are higher for people who pet monkeys; it does not follow that petting monkeys causes suicide. Ya see?
