US Erection 12 *AND* 16 *AND* 20 *AND* 22 *AND* 24 *AND* Beyond

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

Tell me horseyman, would you be OK with a demonstrations of hundreds or thousands of people blocking access to public buildings, intimidating neutral passersby, in order to advocate loudly for the extermination of Canadian Indigenous people?
I'm okay with them saying whatever they want, as long as does not cause or promote imminent lawless action.
So in your mind genocide is not unlawful. Good to know.
Well, if you don’t believe war crimes exist, sure.

Over the top generalizations are unlike you.

Also...the terminology "wanted for war crimes" always makes me shake my head in wonder....
Yeah, a bit of exxageration but it did feel like me against the board at the time.

War crimes :lol: What an oxymoron. I'm sure Per will elucidate.
Right, the Geneva Convention contains rules that regulate warfare, including the treatment of civilians and the treatment of prisoners of war. If you violate these rules you are committing war crimes. There are also some older conventions regulating the use of chemical and biological weapons that went into effect even earlier. So if you eg use poison gas against enemy troops, that would also constitute a war crime.
Also, you're not allowed to sneak up on somebody from behind, I heard.
Or lure them into an ambush.
You are allowed to lure enemies into an ambush, but you are not allowed to go into combat wearing the uniform of your opponent.
I actually used that as an argument during some sad years that Björklöven used black jerseys. Black is the colour of Skellefteå. We should never wear it, as it violates the Geneva convention.
Yeah.....you missed the sarcasm there Per.

Or, I noticed it but choose to answer anyway. I don't really see the need to ridicule rules of warfare.
War is bad enough without soldiers and civilians also having to endure torture, mustard gas or extrajudicial executions.

And for your information, I'm not 100% sure that the Geneva convention actually applies to hockey. :|

Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Thank god for some balance to the boards. Per you are a dove among a bunch of vultures and buzzards. The chain gang isn't about sports, let alone hockey. 200 steps a day is a massive workout and then they slay their bacon and eggs with multiple sides of sausages and ham slathered in butter. How will these characters make out in Orange Man's hospital? When they have to "actually" pay to take an air chisel to remove the plaque from their "hearts"

Mëds whining that he wants to be an American was...... wow.
"I'm a Trump fan" is beyond fucked up.

Keep up the good fight Per.

That's one big difference, there Blob - sure there are complaints about the Canadian healthcare system - but it's still a LOT better than what's down here.

When's the last time any of you were at a fundraiser for a neighbour's medical costs? Or stuck at a job you hate, but have to stay for the 'benefits'? Or found that your regular doctor is now "not in the network"?

Lat poll I saw showed 90% of you want to stay Canadian. Good job.

The regular doctor thing is the same.....just different wording.

Right now the republicans has control of the senate and congress. I believe that there are mid term elections that could change the dynamics if the Democrats get control.

Again I don’t follow how it all works in the USA but I assume Trump could not do some of the things he is now doing with democrats in control?

He's not even allowed to do them now, with Republicans in control. Many of Trump's EOs are being successfully challenged in court.

Can corruption be more in your face than this?

And how much do you have to pay to a campaign to get this service?

Might be another civil war if the Democrats get control. All the Trump loony’s will be out with guns especially after Trump threatens anyone trying to stop him.

Citizens of USA has a lot more to worry about than some of us over the coming 4 years. Where are all the checks/balances so a president can’t go half cocked like he is?
