There are a lot of people who are counting on their home to bail them out for retirement, the principal residence capital gains exemption isn't going anywhere. It would be political suicide for whoever attempted it, the shitstorm would be pretty insane.

CLAM DOWN posted:Vader guilty of 2nd degree murder (times two) The RCMP's grossly incompetent handling of the crime scene very well may have cost them the first-degree murder conviction. I'm hoping that the sentencing takes the likely course of events into account. For what it's worth, the judge certainly didn't make a show out of the verdict. It was pretty low-key.

As jm20 pointed out, my property is already infested with tiny socialist honeybees. How can a good conservative not love socialism when you look at bees? The insane productivity, unbridled ruthlessness towards weak members, pillaging raids on other hives, no-questions-asked suicide attacks to defend their castle, fearless expansion and best of all vegans hate them.

jm20 posted:Vegans hating an all natural organic product is sublime It's not about it being natural or organic, though. Vegans won't even wear wool, you know? Because the sheep didn't consent to having its hair taken I dated one for a year, and the political side of it is really the objectionable part for me. Don't want to partake of animal products, fine. But a cow isn't sentient and it doesn't have human rights, let alone loving bees.

I'm fine with vegans who don't eat meat because they think it's immoral to contribute to the suffering of animals or whatever. But what get's me is the weirdly idealistic version of nature that some of them have. They seem to forget that the wild is a constant life or death or struggle for survival.

I'm not a vegan or even a vegetarian but I'd love the government to improve conditions for animals in all our food production. Hell, just actually fully enforcing current regulations would be great. If properly regulated meat ends up costing twice as much, what ever, it's good to reduce suffering and help the environment at the same time.

I'm largely a vegetarian except for animals that I kill and dress myself. There's a whole bunch of valid reasons why one would want to significantly curtail their intake of meat. In my more fanatical days I was a vegan but I still ate honey and wore wool. I guess this means I'm hated by both camps.

I'm not a vegetarian but there are ethical and nutritional reasons why it's fine/good to be one. Having to eat as much meat in every meal every day and from terrible sources and practices is hosed. Being a vegan though is step too far I cannot relate to.

I've got no beef with vegetarians and vegans. I respect that they stand for something, and most I've known have been healthier for it. When I was younger I lived in a house that was effectively vegetarian. I didn't cook meat there myself, for the trouble it would cause. I had a policy of not buying meat for myself, but I'd accept if it was bought for me (and since I'd eat with my parents once or twice a week, this added up). Still, and even along with poverty, it was the healthiest I ever ate. Now I eat way too much meat and I don't think I'm better off. The last two girls I've dated have been 95% vegetarian. Only eating meat socially or under special circumstances like it being hunted. And they never bothered me about my meat consumption.

Curbing meat intake is good for both your health and the environment I just laugh at people saying it's a moral imperative because they believe that nature without humans is a Disney movie. Existence is brutal. That being said I switched to buying free range or when nothing else is available free run eggs and chicken because modern chicken farming is basically like keeping animals in a concentration camp. I'd rather eat birds that get to chill out and do normal bird things before I eat them.

JohnnyCanuck posted:Ask them if they'd eat a mango tossed in a dumpster that only had a few rat nibbles on it. Wild almonds (aka "bitter almonds") contain cyanide and eating enough of them (like a handful) is enough to kill you. Dipshits have claimed it cures cancer when in reality they're poisonous as gently caress. So the next time someone tells you that they won't eat cultivated almonds from a farm due to GMO reasons or because they're some idiot vegan, ask them if they'll eat wild almonds instead.

Lobok posted:But on appeal might only get manslaughter. I'm not a lawyer, but I'm not sure how you could interpret the circumstances of the crime - abandoning a pair of almost-octogenarians in the woods, at least one of whom you have severely injured and is bleeding, after depriving them of all their resources, including their methods of communication, transportation, and shelter - as anything other than having a reasonably foreseeable outcome of death. If Vader *didn't* kill them in the commission of his crime, then surely he left them in a position where their deaths were inevitable; after all, it was evidently so isolated and desolate that to this day, six years later, their bodies still haven't been found.
