mm loli's 8/10

Did Jacob bust out the shinigami chop?

Same here but, as Aze mentioned Risk and Stratego are close seconds/third.

Don't get your hopes up RBZ. They are full of drama and not really as great as you think. It's like walking on a razors edge with pits on either side of you filled with very angry wolverines and badgers wanting to rip you to shreds and probably violate a few orifices in the process.

So obvious...

Me with my massive 21 characters.

Fiery- I tend to be passionate about things I care about.

Penguin- I love penguins. Seriously, ask ziggy. I could bury someone in my collection.

of Doom- during the time I registered, my friends and I had something going where we would add "of doom" to everything.

Also I played magic and I loved this card.

Yes. She's beside me on the couch.

A simple answer is Charity. Salvation army actually gave a co-worker of mine medication for her disease.




Government programs come with bureaucrats, regulations, waste, etc. Governments do a piss poor service for the amount of money they spend. I would rather donate all the money that would go into a government program via taxes to a charity because the charity would do a better job at a lower cost.



We use prisoners as cheap labor for jobs anyways. In simplicity, we are exchanging work release prisoners for homeless people. Same simple unskilled jobs that we could probably teach a monkey to do. These prisoners do various tasks from roadside trash pick up, park restoration, etc

As for undercutting wages, these people will do the basic of basic work such as flipping burgers, pushing shopping carts. It is already minimum wage work, you can't go any lower without breaking the law.

You forgot the third group which is expanding at a rather alarming rate. Those becoming homeless due to the economy.





I won't debate the faults of socialism and the problems bigger government brings in this thread.

Anyways there are alternative methods to help the mentally ill without having to trash our economy in an already pretty dejected state. While I feel sorry for those who have mental illness, what are we supposed to do? Throw money at them until they are barely stable, even if they are unable to be productive? I believe people can do a far greater job than some bureaucrat in an office.

The second part is missing the fact that the pay system would be similar to a temp. agency. They help get you a job based on your relative skills then take a percentage of your paycheck. Prisoners receive a reasonable pay before they have it taken from them by the state to pay for their room and board. It's not like they will be working .35c on the $. If anything they are undercutting "work release" prisoners due to the fact that you know a homeless man is less of a threat to your working staff.

If they wish to remain homeless then it is their choice and we should move on to the ones who wants to become a productive member of society. My argument is give them the tools to help themselves and leave those who decide to not utilize these tools. You can't force an alcoholic to get well unless they want to.

We really should get some statistics of how many homeless people want to get on their feet compared to the ones that don't or unable due to mental instabilities or chronic drug addict.



Cost efficiency should be a top concern with government programs as this is your money that they are spending. Using the homeless as cheap labor in order to integrate them into society would be a cost effective way to solve the problem. The unintended result would be prisons fighting tooth and nail as the privatized ones would lose the ability to collect some income off the backs of their work release programs.

In the end, you are looking at an investment. That homeless guy went from being a black hole for charity or government handout would become a tax paying citizen. Any intelligent politician should be able to realize that. The large problem is making the necessary change in the legal system along with a shift in societies perspective on homeless people.

Ziggy just mentioned a problem of once the people are working at McDonalds or where ever. Nobody can live on their own working at McDonalds which is true but, this is better than the status quo with just handing out money without really doing much else. Th e problem of having to "house" the homeless person could be in some form of apartment building for the ex-homeless person still working at McDonalds. While this could lead to them turning into "projects" I think the mentality of the people wanting to get back into society would prevent this from occurring.

Also I move to have this thread moved to Serious Discussion due to the nature of the arguments being made here.

I see no incentive to remain homeless so I find it difficult to accept the idea that somebody would desire to remain homeless no matter how prideful or ashamed they are.



I believe you are thinking of something else entirely but, homeless camps are spreading like this one in Reno, Nevada..



I happily accept your vote in 2024. Penguin '24

Edit: Lol I just remembered that the unofficial "mascot" of the Libertarian Party is the penguin. Which is so much better than that dumb porcupine. I should start a petition to make the "LP" or "Liberty Penguin" their mascot or some sort of penguin.

You can't, you are not even allowed to feed or aid the homeless due to some of these laws. This is where the true outrage occurs. If people are being arrested for feeding them then society has definitely taken a step backwards.

Whitelion and I had a discussion a while back that simply giving these people food and shelter isn't enough. We as a society should find a way o reintegrate these people back into society. Turn shelters into some form of half-way house for helping these people get back on their feet.

An example would be a homeless person could go to the "shelter" and be given a simple bed, clothing, food,etc. Basically, clean them up physically so they would be suitable for jobs. Then the shelter would have the person go to work doing something that an unskilled laborer could do. An example of this would be entry level positions at a McDonalds, working in a warehouse, picking up trash on the side of the road,etc. Also these people would be required to attend a workshop or class on how to get another job,etc. The shelter could charge a small fee or percent of the paycheck to help pay for the cloths, food, among the other expenses.

With some practical tweaks to the system you could take a guy who has lost everything through some bad luck or decisions and give them another chance to become a productive member of society.

I can't believe I'm saying this but, I agree with TMS. User uploads could change is system slightly to add tags to the uploads so people could search for their particular fetish. Shochan a lolicon and shota community has a system that indicates what fetish the particular thread or upload consists of so people can avoid the things they don't want to see.

That or the uploaders can just put the "tag" in the title but, that may get a little messy.

Marriage: the social institution under which a man and woman establish their decision to live as husband and wife by legal commitments, religious ceremonies, etc.

Marriage at it core is a religious institution while civil unions are not. While the two do the essentially the same job they are not interchangeable. Since marriage is a religious practice the government has no say in it. Which also sets the groundwork for the government not recognizing any marriage legally or even offering "advantages" to married couples when compared to single people.

I'm going to agree with Gibbous's statement on Page 8. In a nutshell, state sanctioned marriage should be abolished.

You are wanting to change laws so people will be arrested for not harming a real child. That's about as backwards as you can get. I feel you are ignoring the reality of such a change and the unintended consequences of such. You are dead set that lolicon and shotacon equate to child pornography despite that no actual children are involved.

I suggest you read Ashcroft v. Free Speech Coalition in which the supreme court ruled in favor of lolicon. Which is protected by the freedom of speech (for the love of God it's a drawing).

These sort of things never really go away. People who find things objectionable will devote their entire lives to making sure that said objectionable material or whatever is rendered illegal.

For me, an iphone is a waste of money. I have no use for what I estimate to be 90+% of the apps for the phone. I use the phone for calls and the occasional text message. Hell, I would be satisfied with an old "brick" Nokia or some other antique piece of junk. There are the people who absolutely need something with all the features but, for the majority of us, you don't need it. Spend less money on a more basic phone and put the money towards something productive like a Roth I.R.A. retirement account.

My argument is all about the monetary side of it. Angelus could spend his money more wisely in my opinion as he has no real need for all those bell and whistles on it. I mean for fuck sake he's a bag boy at a Grocery store.

If Angelus opened a Roth I.R.A. today with a starting balance of $100 (cost of that phone) and put in the cost of having an iPhone a year ($840) every year until the age of 65. He would end up with over $300,000. That requires the Roth to have an 8% interest rate. Even if the Roth had only a 1% interest rate it would equate to $45,000.

That is my argument against the iPhone. From my understanding he doesn't really NEED an iPhone. He could buy something cheaper and invest the money towards something else but, like I said. His money, his decision.

(in case anybody wants to know where I got my numbers here.)

I resent that comment.

Anyways, I never strike up a conversation with others in public unless I know them. I blame my anti-social tendencies. I have also never had somebody try to strike up a conversation with me (outside of "how are you" when I'm at the grocery store). I guess I'm scary in public.

First of all, I'm not doing it all day as my girlfriend requires at lot of my attention (I love bugging & loving on her). Plus, who masturbates when you have a attractive woman living with you? Anyways, on the topic at hand. Loli's are not real. Legally, lolicons are doing nothing illegal as no real child is harmed.



You are trying to associate something that is fictional to an act in the real world. If loli = Child pornography then, guro should equate to murder. As mibuchiha stated people use the same arguments against guro. Same goes for rape, incest,etc. These things are illegal when done to a real person but, perfectly legal when nobody is harmed. At least give a valid reason other than as you find x objectionable so x should be illegal.


You completely missed what I was going for but, whatever.

You should go outside more. It'd expose you to some different points of view but, then again you'd have to be exposed to the sun. I suggest a good sunscreen.

I am certain we agree on the notion that people who do abuse children or take advantage of them should be punished to the fullest extent of the law. The reason why the supreme court ruled in favor of lolicon is because no real children are harmed nor taken advantage of. You seem to be blind to one major point. No actual person is harmed. Our system of laws only punish people for actual harm done or actively attempting to harm someone. To put it bluntly 'Until we do something to a child we are doing nothing wrong".

So by your logic we should throw people people in jail for looking at guro or by killing someone in a video game because you can't tell the difference between reality and fantasy. Do us all a favor and keep your opinions out of the legal system. I prefer to have my laws written on a factual basis and not somebodies morality.



Give my regards to the others at your next angry moms meeting.
