Gun control nut on Linkedin, after being shown statistics that gun control doesn't work: "When someone has a gun pointed at your forehead, and is nervously saying "get down" or "give me what's in your wallet" or "I'm gonna kill your wife/girlfriend/children", then statistics don't really matter, do they?"

If it weren't for bad arguments, they'd have no arguments at all!

Just saw Pelosi's speech at the new congress inauguration today. She mentioned God so many times I thought she was going to cap the speech by sacrificing a goat to Yahweh. Most televangelists mention God less. Will post when I find it.

Its a logical fallacy...
You said that already.
How would someone have raised the capital in 1955 to launch the first space mission knowing that there would be little to no return for the next 60 years?
The U.S government cancelled an 80 billion dollar particle accelerator project in the early to mid 90's in favor of tax cuts. How much of those tax cuts were invested in basic science?
