Gee does everything have to be spelled right out for you.

Ok I'll try wink.png

Would you like to see duelling brought back?  You know fighting at dawn with French foils or pistols?  I think if we brought duelling back people would be more careful with what they say and would think twice before insulting others. 

RoobieRoo

You think fighting a duel takes no courage? then you wired to the moon.  Its not violence per se, pistols are messy things i agree, I would limit it to swords and no killing, first blood only.  What is there to say if someone insults your mom?  What argument shall you proffer?  there is none, you just call the cad out for a duel, carve a big Z in his trousers, panic over problems solved.

 

Is there no one you would like to swish a Z onto? maybe some feminists? perhaps you are too erudite to engage in mindless violence?

RoobieRoo

a duel has to be accepted, its not the same thing as gratuitous violence or randomly inflicting pain on some unsuspecting passer-by.  Furthermore it was a test of the swordsman skill in not maiming his adversary, simply giving him a little nick as one would get when shaving. 

RoobieRoo

anyway you are too erudite for that sort of thing wink.png  can we talk about feminism for you seem to have some strong opinions, maybe you can teach me something?

Again changing the subject. U originally were talking about pistols and using force on someone that insulted u. *sigh* 

easy there young lady, lets take a deep breath, duelling was a perfectly acceptable way of irreconcilable disputes not that long ago.

If u want to ask me about feminism u can ask me else where im not going to continue here.

ok i did not realise it was such a sensitive issue, honestly if it makes you feel uncomfortable forget about it, honestly I just thought maybe i could learn something.  I can talk copious amounts of nonsense instead.

Just because something is considered acceptable in the past doesn't mean It's civilised or acceptable now. In the past sterilisation of the mentally ill took place that doesn't mean it's acceptable. 

sure although your analogy is bordering on a false equivalence, but ok, eugenics was never a good idea, i agree.

I'm not sensitive about it, but I don't want to continue in this thread anymore.

All this talk of Destiny blocking people. I'm wondering who they are. Sorry if I sound dumb but I'd like to know.

It is a fair question. I still do not know why I was blocked by her. I have to be careful to not say anything that could be construed as offensive as I tend to be a bit outspoken and a little blunt in my comments. I was gently warned to watch my step by one of the Mods and I am endeavoring to comply. I will welcome personal notes, though.

Duelling is perfectly acceptable.

But with pistols? Come on Robbie, be a man!

Rapier and dagger is much more exciting.
