    Tried as an adult?

    This is completely inaccurate. 12 and under, I agree but when you become a teenager, you're no longer this stupid little kid who knows nothing. By 13, you should have been properly taught about what is and isn't okay to do. Further, by 13, based off your surroundings, you should be aware that...

    Environment vs Free-will

    There's definitely a 50/50 split with this topic. On the one hand, environment 100% shapes people, often permanently. However, there are cases -albeit not a lot - of people who grew up in a poor environment and turned their life around. The issue, however, remains that those negatively...

    The Standards in Public Schools Being Weak

    I hate how true this is. When I went to school it was simple. Now it's horrible and there's so many minefields teachers have to avoid. A huge factor in the poor schooling in modern times was covid and virtual learning. Absolutely no one, kid nor adult, who schools or works from home is going to...

    At what point can it not be fat shaming?

    Black Angel covered everything I was, but there's another aspect to this. Even if you approach the topic in a sensitive way with said heavy person, it can go one of two ways. 1. They get offended and think you're fat phobic. or 2. They legitimately do not see being heavy as a problem. Both...

    Should all crimes be equally punishable?

    I don't want to turn this thread into a separate debate about one incident, however, she did not castrate him during the act, which would have been self defense. She castrated him while he was sleeping, which makes her the aggressor. It is the same concept as a home invader who is running off...

    Tried as an adult?

    This has always been my stance as well. American seems to be all about giving anyone under 18 a slap on the wrist, or worse, expunging a juvenile's record - a record that could be relevant if said juvenile is a psychopath. The common thing people say is "ur brain isnt fully developed as a kid...

    Autism and the power of words

    It's not even specifically cops that lack understanding, it's people in general. There are a lot of folks who refuse to acknowledge mental health and completely ignore it. However, there's also people who want to be understanding, but can't - and I completely get that. Folks with Autism don't...

    Guns

    I am so conflicted when it comes to guns, as they do both - kill people and protect them, sometimes killing someone in the process of protecting. I have always played FPS games, so I'm kind of used to them in that sense, but I've never held or shot one. I think guns are interesting and can be...

    Do we need animals?

    If you pay me enough you can have him. He's old, fat and demanding as hell. 😂 He can tell time, and demands to be fed every 4 hours on the dot. If I don't feed him, he barks me into submission. You can have him. 😂

    Preserving Virginity, anyone?

    You are, but if you're not compatible sexually, there is a higher chance the relationship won't work.

    If you could make one thing illegal...

    Religion. It is the bane of most issues in the world. Not even money is as big of a problem. I would explain it as giving people back their freedom. Before anyone says "taking away the ability to be religious isn't freedom", religion is the main driving force behind all the hate in our world...

    Who should be responsible for taking care of the elderly?

    I agree with Nebulous that a combination should be the ones doing it. However, it's a complicated thing. No one should be expected to take care of another person simply because they are older. I've heard stories from people who had to take care of their elderly parent and their life was...

    Pets vs people

    Moral doesn't really come into play. Ultimately, it's your money. You can spend it however you want without feeling guilty, because it's your life. If someone wanted to spend millions on their pet, I think it's weird, but applaud them. It's not my life, none of my business. No one has any...

    Do we need animals?

    We absolutely need animals! Especially the ones - any of them - that can be pets. I think a lot of non animal people or people who otherwise haven't been around animals enough completely underestimate and dismiss the healing power that animals have. I volunteered at a shelter for a year, every...

    Burning flags?

    What's so funny is that a lot of Americans are hypocrites. "We have freedom of speech, you can't censor us!" Another American: burns the US flag Also Americans: HANG HIM! THAT'S ILLEGAL! MOVE TO ANOTHER COUNTRY IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT HERE!

    Preserving Virginity, anyone?

    It will forever be strange to me that religion is so overbearing to the point of controlling people's sex life - or lack thereof. Aside from religion, there are girls who cherish their virginity as if it was something special. Now, don't get me wrong, every person's first time should be special...

    Do you have any pet peeves?

    This annoys me quite a bit in public. At home, I get it, sometimes we think we flushed when we didn't. Happens to everyone. In public, there's no top lid you can put down to avoid looking at it. Your shit is in your eyesight. Yet, people act like wild animals in public restrooms. It's why I...
