In how you handled the antisemitism in the Protest thread.
While people like budman make me desire to retreat, people like you are why I hang around.
Keep up the quality submissions!

I own guns and love em. But, your explanation of why you'd rather not own them is EPIC. What a great response. It *is* a responsibility, and it's wise to say I don't think I want to take that on. I loved that you didn't do the "real men don't need guns" thing so many do. YOu are one non-gun-owner I definitely would take shooting with me lol

5 shrooms for this! I'm loving what you're putting in here.   Welcome to the community!
For me, this debate is something positive in my life. I learn new things when I debate these extremely important topics with other people (so long as it remains civil). Someone in the thread made the claim that black people were, on average, way more likely to commit violent crime than white people. I wanted to know whether or not that was actually true. So, I researched the topic a little bit, and I actually learned something from it (you can read my results above). The primary purpose for my engaging in arguments and debate is to expand my own understanding of the world. I believe debate ought to be exploratory in nature, not combative, and I exercise that belief by remaining civil, avoiding personal attacks, and doing my best to avoid logical fallacies.
I enter arguments with people online with the hopes that I might learn something new, with the hopes that I might gain empathy for someone who's position I previously misunderstood. That new perspective influences my actions in the future, so it isn't just about deepening the divide. I want to understand other people, and I want other people to understand me. I'm all about building bridges, not putting down people who I think are wrong.

for this ..
Quote:
Police abolitionists are asking for the police to be replaced with non-violent, non-racist means of community protection. There are so many ways for us to protect our communities without armed officers. I believe that so much crime in the U.S. comes up as a result of severe poverty and economic disparity, and I believe we can do something about severe poverty and economic disparity that doesn't involve violence (or the threat of violence).
