Perhaps rather than semi monthly you could spare us and yourself and make this sort of rambling a biennial affair.

Your thesis is filled with accusations of the modern democratic party as some tyranical, authoritarian party, when the United States of America has NEVER been a free society for any of US, and only a select people benefit from the constitution.
The idea of the United States as a true democratic republic in practice has never been reality, the 'land of the free' is merely a Eurocentric fair tale, subjugating whoever they can. The seperation of powers is just that, a seperation of powers, but still a glaring gap between true representation of the average citizen.
Whatever system of government you have, corruption is inevitable. A violent revolution only acomplishes more violence.

I have a feeling that you dislike the content of what I write more than how I write it. If I wrote about content that fit your vision of the world you would be just fine with having to read a few commas.Originally Posted by Th3RealF0lkBlu3s

Your superfluous prose makes arguing against the content of your essay nearly impossible.Originally Posted by Rexanglorum

You want what I orginally wrote shortened, here it goes:Originally Posted by UnkleTomCruze
Dog, a lot of what you write is unnecessary.
Your last 4 paragraphs would've sufficed, quite honestly.
That said, if I were to ask you to distill your O.G post into a thesis statement, would you be able to do it? And what would it be?
I've already read your post in it's entirety twice, and am confident that I know what you're asserting.
And frankly, I think you're a lil off your rocker for attempting to justify and/or humanize Laughner's actions by implicitly veiling it as a misconstrued act of patriotism against a tyrannical complex (the American government--the supposedly centralized democratic led American government).
Your inherent personal bias honestly makes it difficult to even take your post seriously.
I think you are somewhat confused about what bias is and what context you would find it. Bias is when someone lets their opinion negatively affect their ability to act as a good faith, neutral observer, reporter or teacher. I was writing about my opinion, my view of the situation, I never was claiming that I am just presenting the basic who, what, where, when and why of this story.
But I could be wrong, so if you would kindly amuse me--distill your post into a bare minimum: a thesis statement; this way, I can be sure that I'm not reading too much, or too less, into your post.
