I'm beginning to wonder who's trolling and who's biting.

Glad to hear it, that means I'm doing my job properly. Thanks.

No it doesn't.
It means that they are doing their job properly, and you haven't twigged.

Oops, I might have said too much.

But no, your vanity could never let you admit to yourself that you bit.

That would require that I be unaware of the attempt and not be using such attempts for my own benefit. That's not the case.

The society that comes closest to Seths community justice system that I can think of right now is the old wild west. They had an overall murder rate of 25 killings per 100,000 people per year, according to Prof. Pinker. Five times as high as present day USA . A massive amount of violence!

[pErvinalia]

But it was righteous violence!

Professor Pinker is a putz.

Such an intelligent reply, Seth.

[Scot Dutchy]

Yep never changes.

Seth has been talking shite for years.

[JimC]

King Lak would give us all drinking and fishing holidays!

Fuckin' A. Two choices - fish and drink, or work the mines.

What about drinking like a fish?

[Seth]

Such an intelligent reply, Seth.

It's exactly as intelligent as Pinker deserves.

[pErvinalia]

Now you know why you only get mocking from us.

As if I care.

Steven Pinker is a professor of psychology at Harvard University. His qualifications make yours and mine together look pathetic. He is deserving of respect.

I was referring to his book on the history of human violence, which took him 10 years of detailed research to write. His bibliography alone is massive. When you dismiss it all with an airy wave of your hand, it reflects on you and your credibility, not on that of Steven Pinker.

Why do you not respond in a proper and intelligent way to his statement? Pinker, as a result of his detailed research, found that the murder rate of the old west averaged 25 killings per 100,000 people per year. In the USA today, it is about 4.5 per year, and that makes it the worst in the entire western world.

Your libertarian 'utopia' is reflected in the way of life in the old west, and it resulted in extreme violence. What makes you think the same thing again would give better results?

Einstein defined insanity as doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting different results. We have already seen 'libertarian justice' resulting in severe nastiness. To want to repeat the experience - does that not reflect Einstein's model of insanity?

He's a leftist anti-gun putz, like a good many other academics at Harvard.

And yet there are more guns in the US now than at any time in the history of the world and which direction does even Pinker admit the violent crime rates are headed?

Down.

QED.

As I said, Pinker is a leftist anti-gun putz.

And yet, more guns, less crime.

As they say: It's not our fault reality has a left-wing bias.

Man, you need to go back to school and learn logic. That's shocking reasoning there.
