Stop flaming him you frickin morons. Chuck would get banned for his crap if it was my forum and frankly Puffin, you went a bit off board on that. Because of his opinions you flamed him because it didn't agree with yours. You people r nuts and frankly the admins would have to be mad to get mad at triton or warn him since HE did not do anything except put his opinion out there. So what if he thinks women bring rape upon themselves, Chuck. It's his opinion, did he do anything wrong by stating it, no. so what if he thinks your language is a dead one Puff. Did he do anything wrong by stating his opinion?

Uh.. yes?

1) tell a lie
2) flame? believe me, there's a lot i could say about america here that i'm not saying. And the Icelandic language is one of our biggest pride, no other language has managed to preserve so well that is still being used.

And what i said earlier is the nicer version of what was going on in my mind.

Maybe we should just lay it to rest, forget everything offensive that has been said by anybody.
Just start anew and debate humanly this time.

The first one is offensive to women. As if they were the one to blame if they get raped.

The second one is offensive to a language and an identity.

I don't mind people stating their opinions, as long as they don't offend anyone by doing so.

I told you I was being sarcastic. You're just blowing smoke now.

Women aren't always to blame for being raped, but a lot of women do things that increase their likelihood of being raped.

So I bet if you say something sarcastic about America, there's nothing wrong with that. I said already that I was being sarcastic, and it should have been plainly visible.

So if I decide I want to flame people for their opinions, it's perfectly fine? Are you giving me carte blanche?

Not true. I tried very hard to be reasonable, and everyone else decided to start a flame war. Why can't they learn to respect other peoples' opinions?

I don't mind people stating their opinions, as long as they don't offend anyone by doing so.

You are ALL flaming everyone in this topic. I give this thread 3 posts to get back on track, and if I see any flaming at all, I will close this thread AND personally go through all 97 posts in this topic and hand out warns and suspensions for anything slightly off-topic or flaming! :ranting:

Listen to Tom!
This is supposed to be a friendly and warm forum.
To see people arguing like they were common packrats on some misc. forum isn't something I want to see, or I think any of us want to even have.

Howza 'bout this then: By far the majority of women who are raped are raped by someone they know, and more often than not it is because the rapist wants to have power over the women. The myths that you chose to propagate are almost the exact reason why a lot of rapes never get reported.
