I made sure I put them in the right context, and I even mentioned exceptions.
I'll go ahead and give you benefit of the doubt and say that you did not mean what you wrote originally. Fuck if I know how you can't see how illogical that statement is, though. I guess you'd die defending it simply because it's yours, regardless of how indefensible it is.
Quote:Quote:Please put that bit I responded to, the bit in quotes, into its full context for me so that it makes logical, rational sense.My entire quote was "Yes, when needed then of course face coverings should be removed, but customs and religions should be respected.". This was in addition to my arguments about why the burqa should not be banned, and in addition to my stipulation that there were exceptions. Please, if you think my arguments are illogical or irrational, point out where they are. By that, I mean you should show me the logical fallacies I am using, preferably in some logical form. Note, the phrase "but customs and religions should be respected" is not an argument on its own; it is simply an addendum to my argument about why the burqa should be allowed.
Bolded for emphasis again.
You state a position on respecting customs and religions, yet you don't say why they should be respected. If you don't see how your words promote blind respect, well, at least I don't have to fucking live like that. Ignorance must be straight tits.
I'm out. Feel free to get the last word and tell me how my logical fallacies raped your mother or whatever.

Actually, I don't really give a shit about burqas. I care about logic. You may notice that apart from my first post, I never talked about banning burqas, only Ti's weakass attempts at logic. My opinion on burqas is like my opinions on daycare - I guess I have one, but meh.
