The middle schoolers have an excuse such as hormones and still developing, but they come off looking so much better and thoughtful than the GOP candidates.

The key of why the Mormon rancher in Nevada gets to claim his ancestral rites and Native Americans don't is in his use of the term "beneficial use" of the land. If I recall this was a justification given by Ayn Rand why it was okay for white Europeans to seize the land and resources of America, because the natives didn't know how to utilize that land and those resources properly and thus were not entitled to ownership, that's the gist of the argument.

Axetrain posted:Didn't Arkane make something like a hundred grand betting on the election? After being away from the forums for a while after the election, he claimed he made something lie 200K betting on stuff like Romney getting the nomination and Obama winning the general election or something. I have a bit of a hard time believing it because if it were truly those kind of bets he would probably have had to risk a lot more than that to make that much and it would be crazy to do rather than just investing it in a more conventional way, in my opinion, a lot of risk in case things turned sideways due to unexpected events.
