We need more Liberals on my board
If any of you are interested in taking on a very diverse collection of people in VERY INTENSE debate.. Sign up and come on in...

It is NOT a flame board, please keep this in mind, its a VERY FRANK AND OPEN discussion board with an ANYTHING GOES attitude, and we stand behind the FIRST AMENDMENT 100% for ANY member..

Blacks,whites,mexicans, jews, muslims,satanists, evolutionists, conservatives, liberals, centrists, libretarians... ANYBODY who can use there own thoughts and express there ideals is welcome on the board as long as they know how to speak with words of conviction..

It helps that the main MOD (me) is a Liberal !!!

You would be censored most elsewhere by most any other Moderator/Administrator..

18. I'm liberal, but not liberal enough in your book
For one, I'm pro-life--across the board, which also means no death penalty except for the most vile (like the * regime); no war except as a last resort; no economic injustice; no abortions except if mom's life is in danger; no objectification of women; no racism, period!

My pro-life views, brought about by my own mom refusing to listen to the doctors and abort me rather than risk her life to give me a chance to be born, disqualifies me as a liberal and puts me in the category of right-wing fanatic :sarcasm:

20. interesting, i am pro-choice because I think my mother's life would have
Edited on Mon Jun-27-05 09:24 PM by fleabert
been much better had she chosen not to have me at 17...

I believe 'I' still would have existed, that the soul is separate from the physical and that the essence of me, that makes me, ME, always was, and always will be.

she had a very hard life, mostly due to lack of education and having a child to support at such a young age. She, of course, disagrees with me, and says her life is better because of me, that's what moms say. I think she just would have had 'me' later.

C'est la vie, funny how we come to our beliefs sometimes. Not trying to change your mind or anything, just thought I'd share.

22. Hateful ??
We like to view it as BRUTALLY HONEST !!

Usually the ones who are the weakest on the board, are the most ignorant when it comes to RACE/RELIGION.

Oh we do get an idiot wannabe KKK member, or ISLAM hater, but they usually get put in there place in the end.

28. A couple rules.
Slam ANYBODY and ANYTHING you want, but BACK UP YOUR WORDS !!

We have some of the damndest topics and battles..

I think one of the funnier ones was the one where a kid comes to us and apoligises for speaking in "WHIGGAR" while he was typing... making him sound like a complete idiot... we totally had to take advantage of this and just lay into him about EVERYTHING STUPID about WHIGGAR STYLE... The post is simply called "SORRY"

31. I'll admit
The site is oriented to the STRONG WILLED debaters only.

Sometimes it IS too intense for some people.

This is why the disclaimer says if you are offended, then the site is NOT for you.

We do not encourage racism or hatred, in fact, we prefer to analyze it at its source... by tearing apart the ones who spread it, along with there ignorance about the world..

Like I said.... We choose to call it BRUTAL HONESTY with WORDS OF CONVICTION and NOT stupidity and ignorance.

Its VERY hard to find members who have what it takes to be one of the "PRICKS" of WPYO. but we are very popular considering we have no ads, no endorsements from anywhere, nothing.

Those that can handle it, get addicted to the carnage of debate linguistics.

32. "STRONG WILLED debaters only"
Debating things like the use of wiggar (sp?) language by a poster, who then felt the need to apologize for no other reason except harrassment. Maybe he wasn't strong-wille enough to hang, as one poster suggested, telling him never to apologize, stick to his guns, etc.

Is there any political debate, or is it all what sounds like kids taunting each other in the schoolyard? :)

34. Its mainly political and religious
but we do stray away from those topics from time to time, just to bitch for the sake of bitching... its what makes it so much fun.
