    NotW is ceasing production, as of 11/07/2011 after 168 years of printing news.

    I am not sure if you would have heard seeing as this is UK based news, but after months of court cases and internal investigations the News Of The World newspaper will be ceasing production as of this Friday 11th July after 168 years of printing the newspapers. The main reasons stem from issues...

    Double standards in the Debate Hall

    I really don't see how the use of pictures are needed in threads in the DH or PG. You can debate as effectively without the use of pictures, and it also forces debaters to step up their game so to speak when they don't have a picture they could fall back on to support them. I mean as a last...

    Immigration: Should learning the native language be required?

    It's not that hard to read, I have seen worse font colours around the forums that are brighter/blend into background worse than mine. If you don't like seeing other font colours in posts then set your Show Custom Post Colours option to off from your CP -> Settings & Options -> Edit Options. You...

    Death panels for the elderly

    I did read the OP, you said it would be a one time thing, the point I am making is that the next generation, when we are old can use our one time purging of the elderly as precedent to allow another purge of the elderly. I think reading posts properly is becoming a lost art...

    Immigration: Should learning the native language be required?

    I disagree with the citizenship test policy was just saying how England tried to implement it a while back, but I still think a test that makes sure a immigrant has basic understanding of English is the way forward. I don't know who mentioned it earlier but the way certain countries only allow...

    Patents should be illegal on life-saving drugs

    Well as long as the patent removal doesn't include the trademarked name of the drug, then allowing other companies to reproduce the same drug can only serve as a good thing and would drive down the prices of life saving drugs significantly, as long as the aforementioned problems with placebos...

    Should the USA be the policemen of the world?

    The UN is in theory a great organisation, but the implementation of the the UN and the political greed that seems to rule their actions makes them terrible in practise, until the UN rule with the best interests of peace and ending conflict at the forefront of decision making and not personal...

    The Snorlax Room

    I played semi-competitively with the first gen cards, lost interest by the time then moved past the jungle and fossil cards. Mainly just collected cards though than battled them, had a nice selection of holographic cards built up, ranging from charizard, chansey, machamp, mewtwo to fossil...

    Should the USA be the policemen of the world?

    I don't think any country should be the policeman of the world, no one country has the right to police the world. Although I do think that a collaboration of countries acting together should have some authority in keeping conflicts subdued and minimizing loss of innocent life. The main downside...

    Immigration: Should learning the native language be required?

    I've heard of something similar we tried to implement in England a while ago, making all immigrants take a citizenship test about the culture and history of the country, failure to pass the test resulted in an immigrant not being granted access to the country, not sure if or even when it would...

    Patents should be illegal on life-saving drugs

    I am also opposed to this idea, because the patent just refers to to the naming of the product and ingredients used, the downside to removing patents on life saving drugs could result in certain unscrupulous companies manufacturing a placebo or dangerous version of the same drug and because of...

    The "environmentalist" movement- and how it's destroying society.

    Well the fault of making global warming seeming less of an issue is not in the hands of environmentalists but the governments of this world, they have been shown scientific evidence of it's causes and future affects, if they decide to 'lump' it in with other environmentalist issues then they are...

    Death panels for the elderly

    The problem with your death panel theory is that when you reach retirement age, there could be someone like-minded wanting to selfishly kill one more generation of the elderly to give themselves more money and happiness. And with your purging of the elderly when you were younger could act as...
