Yes, this is how population density works, meaning you are free to make any lovely meaningless correlation you want.

Assuming you aren't: beating up on libertarians is great, but if you're going to post twatty demotivationals that look like they were made by 15 year olds and perpetuate childish name calling, you'll get called out on it.

Colonel Louis A. La Garde, of the United States Army Medical Corps, later reviewed casualty data from the [Russo-Japanese War] and noticed something that should have been readily observable by any attaché on hand: the military futility of a bayonet charge. Of 170,600 Russian soldiers documented as wounded or killed, bayonet wounds accounted for 0.4 percent. More wounds, Colonel La Garde found, were caused by stones.

But the available statistics, for all of their flaws, virtually roared on one point: Bayonets were unquestionably ineffective in what war had become. One military critic wrote in February 1916 that data collected from a French army corps that had been in heavy action found that bayonets caused 0.5 percent of casualties, while shells, grenades, trench explosions, shrapnel, and bullets accounted for a combined 92.5 percent (7 percent of the injuries were of undetermined cause). That even one-half of one percent of the casualties were caused by bayonets was a testimony less to their martial utility than to the fact that both sides insisted on fighting with them.

Here is a hint: I'm not trolling, and libertarians are racists, sperglords, and weed fiends.

So the original complaint was about the libertarian pictures using anti-women language, and you fire back against the libertarian basher's defense by using the word "twatty"? Think this through

Ann Coulter Calls Obama ‘The Retard’

As is her custom, provocative conservative commentator Ann Coulter was decidedly politically incorrect in her assessment of the final presidential debate last night. Ms. Coulter took to Twitter where she used a derogatory term to describe President Barack Obama.

“I highly approve of Romney’s decision to be kind and gentle to the retard,” Ms. Coulter wrote.

Her comment comes less than two weeks after Dan Niblock, the father of a young boy with Down syndrome, published an essay on the website of NBC’s Today taking Ms. Coulter to task for using the same term in another tweet. It’s apparently a habit of Ms. Coulter’s.

“I want Ann Coulter to apologize for using a form of hate speech that is particularly searing to people who have special needs. This isn’t the first time she has tweeted the word “retarded” to insult her rivals, and she needs to stop. Her behavior is not acceptable,” Mr. Niblock wrote.

These complaints clearly haven’t had much effect on Ms. Coulter, who has been unapologetic of her past politically incorrect remarks. Still, we reached out to Ms. Coulter to see if she had any regrets about her post-debate tweet. As of this writing, we have yet to receive a response. We won’t hold our breath.

Update (3:00 a.m.): In an email to Politicker, Ms. Coulter doubled down and made it clear she’s not worried about upsetting anyone with her choice of words.

“The only people who will be offended are too retarded to understand it,” she wrote.

Perhaps, but what's to be gained from trying to virgin shame them?


Having a go at another ideology by labelling them as virgins is simply pathetic. I'm not going to sit here and play holier than thou with you - regardless of my mindless use of the word 'twat,' the image was stupid.

Honestly I would have expected better from this forum. I have no idea why any of you are trying to defend it.
