Rode Hard and Put Up Wet;n99665 said:There are some widely held opinions that are so well documented that people feel comfortable holding them without a bevy of links to "prove it" in an internet conversation. One example is that teen age drivers have lots more wrecks than older drivers. The fact that someone may not be able to quote a statistical database in support is NOT a justification for alleging their belief is based on unfounded prejudice. The preferential treatment of LEO community by the LEO community and courts is another. There have been three citations given here, and there are myriad more available.
It smacks of dishonesty and sophism when feigning an impartial desire simply to have buttressed facts when anyone with enough initiative to do a simple google can find an abundance of supporting opinion.
Yeah, "fail" is a good term to use there.
Opinion and insult. If that's all you have, we're not talking either.
