Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.
The following things are not grounds for murder:
- Personal appearance ("You're fat", "You're ugly")
- Posts with little-to-no context
- Posts based on a grammar/spelling error
- Dick jokes, "Yo mama", "No, you" type responses and other low effort insults
- "Your values are bad" without any logcal or factual ways of showing that they are wrong ("I believe in capitalism" - "Well, then you must be evil" or "Fuck you you ignorant asshole")
Rules:
- Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
- Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
- No bigotry of any kind.
- Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
- If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
- Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

MODERATORS
This isn’t even true in all 50 US States. Bro was getting teased for only knowing only one country…he actually knows zero.
There are states in the US with a lower drinking age?
None that I know of that's for sure
I'm fairly certain if a state tries to lower it they lose government funding
Some states have weird exceptions though where you can drink at home or sometimes even in a bar with parents permission
In what states is this not true? The National Minimum Drinking Age Act said that states needed to make the age 21 or else they would lose federal funding. Looks like they all complied from my quick research into it.
Uh, it is as far as I'm aware.
You're incorrect. The National Minimum Drinking Age Act of 1984 made the minimum drinking age 21 in all 50 states.
What about the non-states? Puerto Rico? Guam? What about tribal nations? What about DC?
Not relevant to the current conversation.
There is no minimum drinking age in Wisconsin if you are with a parent or guardian. Minors can order, possess, and consume alcohol legal at any age, under the discretion of the bartender, as long as they are at the alcohol establishment with their parents or a legal guardian.
