I have noticed that people love to point out fallacies that other people use in their debates as if it makes their points valid. I remember going over them back in college and we talked about it for awhile and how it is almost impossible for you to have a debate without using one or more in your argument so why do people like to point them out if they are using them themselves?

It did work for me earlier. Now it doesn't.

while i tend to avoid pointing out fallacies, unless glaringly obvious and encompassing the whole of a point, i only do so to avoid bitching and moaning. however i find it sad when debating logically and scrutinising the willful corruption of logic just to win a thread is considered passé.
granted, most of us (all of us i would wager) occasionally let one slip out unintentionally. what bugs me however is the internet champion who'll send a barrage of fallacies to a debate, KNOWINGLY, and gets away with it because of others who just dont want to hear about that stupid boring logic stuff...yet want to participate in a forum of debate which is kept relevant by just that.
when i was entering my 20s and for the years to follow, i wish someone would have put me in my place,the same way that was done after speaking my mind on the message board about my opinions of black culture, as if they would have told me that i am inferior in debating techniques and that i am stupid and crazy, maybe i would have been credulous to listen and therefore, none of the blacks/minorities in that inner city and the ones who benefited from the press release(s) and the THOUSANDS who benefited from the ARGUMENTS/petitions for them to have busing in areas that they felt they weren't allowed into....maybe they would have either not benefited from it at all, or it could have been significantly delayed....
i wish these same folks were in my life in my 20s, and MAYBE i would have listened to their negativity so that i wouldn't have done a damn thing in the favor of those crying oppression, and i wouldn't have to express my opinion for one second.
too bad i didn't realize that, if i would have realized i was crazy, stupid, without ability to argue, i would have let them be, and ignore their cry, maybe i would still have my job and bank account.

I love this video, and I can say that if anyone has had a problem with me thinking I'm was soul switched or not, if they have any problems with the fact that I do not touch people's body, personal finances or job, and what I think or thought or continue to think of myself has no baring on them, no matter who I like or dislike, and don't forget of how many rapers talk about women as WHORES, B*TCHES, and they don't project anything kindly about women at all, so what is it to me to rob them of a chance to earn their income based on what they think of me?, please watch this video and enjoy it. I don't force them to like me, nor will I agree to be forced to like or dislike anything that belong's to another person's thoughts or opinions or wishes.

7.30 minutes is great, if you want to FF and get to the meat and bones of what this video is about. And again, who you think I am has no baring on me, unless you rob my bank account, cause job loss, or personal injury or emotional threats; if you leave me alone, I can careless what you do with your mind about me. Hopefully, something that makes you happy.
