Responsibility? The onus is on the banks to lend responsibly. They made outrageously risky loans and were liable for when the borrowers could not pay them back. Bailing out the banks by putting whole populations into long term debt "doesn't

What is 'subjective' about 38,702,000 people murdered? There is something deeply, profoundly morally wrong with you that you have attempted to equivocate that number away for the sake of your ideology. Polite debate fails here. This is unfo

In reference to your second point, racially motivated crime is taken very seriously in Ireland. Traynor was apparently subjected to sustained and horrific racial abuse based on his being Jewish. There has been an escalation of attacks on Je

I believe you have your terminology mixed up. AGW stands for 'Anthropogenic Global Warming' and 'AGW proponents' are those people who actually support the thesis that industrial CO2 emissions are causing catastrophic warming. It looks like
