Seeing how she's currently in Europe, my girlfriend didn't vote.
What? That's not how you spell "gay lover".

"I consent to the government of the winner"
Kindly escort yourself out of this thread.
Um, why?

Voting should be a duty, not a right.
The ballot should also have two extra options: "I consent to the government of the winner" and "I dislike all candidates, and don't wish to choose".

9. You get lost in thought while reading, but don’t notice until you’re three pages past where you stopped paying attention.
THIS.
12. There’s something about the impending feeling before a big storm that makes you feel alive.
13. You rehearse arguments in your head, just in case it should ever come up.
23. You start reading interesting things on the internet and just stop a third of the way through because you lose patience.
33. You hate it when books are adapted into movies, and they start using images from the movie as the cover of the book.
34. You refuse to accept “jif” as the proper pronunciation of GIF.
And those.

I'm paying the entire medical bill.
It's good to see you acting on your sentiments then, unlike most. That's all I can really ask for.

You don't have to be so cold about it. There's nothing wrong with having these feelings towards the kid. Yeah shit happens, but telling people that they can't feel bad for a dying child or that they shouldn't mourn is really heartless.
Ahem: I'm not saying don't care

It's a young kid. 7.6 million children die each year, mostly in conditions worse than the boy you know. Maybe it's just me, but it doesn't bother me that much. I'm not saying don't care, I'm just saying it might be easier if you realise the only justice we make in this world is our own. If you want to do something, give some money to the family for the medical expenses, or donate to a charity.

People get cancer.
People get hit by cars.
People die.
It sucks. Don't dwell on it.

The direct purpose of Jainism and Buddhism is for peace and nonviolence.
Zen Buddhism would like a word with you.
But you still seem to be missing the idea.
THAT'S EXACTLY THE POINT. JAINS AND BUDDHISTS BELIEVE SOMETHING FUNDAMENTALLY DIFFERENT
like, whatever. I have no idea why this is a discussion
Because you said America is to blame for these barbarians when it is, quite demonstrably, what they believe which is the proximate cause of their behaviour.

Jains teach a policy of nonviolence
Rather unfair to pick a sub-unit of Buddhism and compare that to all of Islam, including all sub-beliefs. But Buddhism actually teaches peace
Yes, that's exactly the point. . .
So what point are you trying to make?
Doctrine and dogmatism influence behaviour. Which is why you won't find Jains and Buddhists reacting in the same way Muslims do.

They're just chocolates, buy her another pack. Or just tell her to stfu and deal with it.
Nah. My dad bought them her because they had an argument.

 I just ate all my mother's chocolates - specifically After Eights. I'm not sure how I should go about un-incriminating myself. I could either discard the box and the little paper wrappers completely by burying them in the garden, which I once did effectually when I stole and ripped up my auntie's hand-made birthday card. Or, I could scatter said material near my dog's bed and blame it on him, as I did once, effectually, when I dropped my dinner.

Stopping a genocide.
My point was governments often lie or make things up to go to war in the first place.
They can do the reverse too. The Clinton administration knew about the Rwandan genocide and did nothing.

Many unjust wars have happened under the guise of those actions.
Give me one unjust war which has been carried out after the fulfillment of criterion C.
What is that?
Stopping a genocide.

The very people who were try to fight solely exist because we caused them to
No. It's because they're incredibly dogmatic fundamentalists. Take three nations, all with dogmatic Vajrayana Buddhists, Jains and Muslims. Go in, remove their oppressive governments. I guarantee the only terrorist groups which form in the power vacuum will belong to the Muslims.

Policing the entire world isn't doable, especially when we're often the bad guys. Countries should only be worried about their own defenses.
I'm not advocating world policing. I'm saying true world security requires collective action when A) the country harbours international criminals like terrorists, B) it threatens another nations sovereignty C) it is committing or will commit a genocide. Those three requirements increase in importance.

Then why wouldn't we just make them part of our country so it WOULD be legal? Or acknowledge that the idea of countries in the first place is just silly.
Because people tend to prefer practical, pragmatic and, y'know, doable policies.

Because of all the shit that has happened since? Seriously, Cam?
You're supporting the continued existence of one of the worst tyrants the world has ever known alongside Hitler, Stalin and Milosevic simply because it created a power vacuum afterwards? I'm disappointed. Hussein was going to die eventually, better sooner than later.
Definitely because of what has happened. Look at when we took out the Shah of Iran, he was replaced by someone worse. Our involvements never making things better when our actions are criminal.
I'll concede my defeat when the Islamic State consolidates a government over Iraq.

You're just saying that because he's black.
Everybody knows black people produce more impressive inflation.
