Bill O'Reilly

[crimresearch]

Yep, John Edward and Sylvia Browne are rich too. It just goes to show that the ignorant are a source of wealth.

And votes...

 

[thaiboxerken]

No you didn't. You just changed tunes when you were shown the facts. You have yet to show how O'reilly discriminated against anyone.

You really love to play semantics, instead of arguing points, don't you?

How's this? It's my opinion that people who make racist comments are racist. Because of this, I think O'Reilly is a racist.

 

[Tony]

In your opinion.

Nope. Objectively speaking, he has not said any racist comments.

Hardly a fallacy, it's a premise. If you want to say that I made a false premise, then fine.

It's a fallacious premise.

Racists make racist comments.
O'Reilly makes racist comments.
O'Reillyl is a racist.

That's like saying:

Boys rape girls
thaiboxerken is a boy
thaiboxerken rapes girls.

 

[Tony]

You really love to play semantics, instead of arguing points, don't you?

Back to your "semantics" dodge I see.

It's my opinion that people who make racist comments are racist. Because of this, I think O'Reilly is a racist.

Well, I'm not gonna deny you your right to be a moron. People believe all kinds of unfounded BS, you wouldn't be the first.

 

[thaiboxerken]

Nope. Objectively speaking, he has not said any racist comments.

Your subjective opinions are hardly objective. I'll be honest, it is my subjective opinion that those things O'Reilly has said were racist. Why can't you be just as honest?


Boys rape girls
thaiboxerken is a boy
thaiboxerken rapes girls.

False, it's not even close. It's more like this.

Rapists rape girls.
O'Reilly rapes girls.
O'Reilly is a rapist.

 

[thaiboxerken]

Back to your "semantics" dodge I see.

It's hardly a dodge, but you are entitled to keep trying to sucker me into your game.

Well, I'm not gonna deny you your right to be a moron. People believe all kinds of unfounded BS, you wouldn't be the first.

You can believe what you want, however, I have an opinion based on what I percieve as racist comments. It's not unfounded, but it can be viewed in a different way (that I don't agree with).

You, however, are scum.

 

[TragicMonkey]

Rapists rape girls.
O'Reilly rapes girls.
O'Reilly is a rapist.

Dogs have four legs.
Mittens the Kitten has four legs.
Mittens the Kitten is a dog.

You need to start off with "ONLY" dogs have four legs, or "ALL" four-legged animals are dogs.

Although I quite like the rapist examples. Much more entertaining than the boring syllogisms you get in Philosophy 101.

 

[Tony]

Your subjective opinions are hardly objective. I'll be honest, it is my subjective opinion that those things O'Reilly has said were racist. Why can't you be just as honest?

My "opinion" is fact. O'reillly has not given money to or supported racist ideals and groups. He has not discriminated against or shunned anyone based on race.

False, it's not even close. It's more like this.

Rapists rape girls.
O'Reilly rapes girls.
O'Reilly is a rapist.

It's false for a reason. You've demonstrated the fallacy of your own syllogism (if it's not apparent to you, I'm sure it is to others).

 

[thaiboxerken]

My "opinion" is fact. O'reillly has not given money to or supported racist ideals and groups. He has not discriminated against or shunned anyone based on race.

No, your opinion is not fact. It is simply an opinion. It's my opinion that he's racist with his use of racial slurs and "racially insensitive" statements.


Only rapists rape girls.
O'Reilly rapes girls.
O'Reilly is a rapist.

There, how's that?

Only racists make racist comments.
O'Reilly makes racist comments.
O'Reilly is a racist.

 

[DavidJames]

My "opinion" is fact. O'reillly has not given money to or supported racist ideals and groups. He has not discriminated against or shunned anyone based on race.

[tony]Do you have evidence for your claim?[/tony]



I am serious though, please support your claim with evidence.

 

[TragicMonkey]

Only rapists rape girls.
O'Reilly rapes girls.
O'Reilly is a rapist.

There, how's that?

Only racists make racist comments.
O'Reilly makes racist comments.
O'Reilly is a racist.

Much better. But it would have been funnier if you had O'Reilly rape Mittens the Kitten.

 

[Tony]

You can believe what you want, however, I have an opinion based on what I percieve as racist comments.

Your perception is that of a mentally deranged person. There are tons of valid criticisms that can be leveled at O'reilly. That you choose to stick with such a BS criticism says much more about you than it does about O'reilly.

It's not unfounded

Yes it is. It’s completely unfounded. What all this boils down to is that you just think O'rielly is racist because he offended your sensibilities. That's a no-no for a white guy.

You, however, are scum.

Racist.

 

[Tony]

[tony]Do you have evidence for your claim?[/tony]



I am serious though, please support your claim with evidence.

What claim?

 

[thaiboxerken]

Your perception is that of a mentally deranged person.

F*&( you too, buddy.

 

[Tmy]

HELLO!!!! Bill is irish catholic from Levittown Long Island. Of course he's racist!!! I think the towns crest has a burning cross on it!

 

[Tony]

No, your opinion is not fact.

In this case it is.

It's my opinion that he's racist with his use of racial slurs and "racially insensitive" statements.

That's an unfounded opinion. Using racial slurs (in your opinion) and saying "racially insensitive" (in your opinion) things, does not equal racism. That's the simple fact. That you refuse yo acknowledge that fact makes you a bigot.

Only racists make racist comments.
O'Reilly makes racist comments.
O'Reilly is a racist.

Circular reasoning.

 

[thaiboxerken]

In this case it is.

Whatever. There is no point arguing with you anyway, because your opinions seem to be fact, no matter how subjective they are.

That's an unfounded opinion. Using racial slurs (in your opinion) and saying "racially insensitive" (in your opinion), does not equal racism.

Then it's an unfounded opinion. It's still my opinion and I'll keep it.

That you refuse yo acknowledge that fact makes you a bigot.

Yea, right.

Circular reasoning.

Not even close, the conclusion is not a restatement of the premise.

 

[epepke]

Isn't "coyote" a term the illegal immigrants use themselves? I don't think it is a racist term in the slightest.

N*gger is a term that African-Americans use themselves, yet I am either forbidden or strongly discouraged from using it here.

Note that this does not mean that O'Reilly is a racist, but the fact that a term is an autonym does not make it not racist.

 

[TragicMonkey]

I thought "coyote" was the term used for the people who were paid money in order to guide/smuggle illegal aliens from Mexico into the US. If so, it's not a racial slur, it's a job title, or code language for one.

 

[thaiboxerken]

Wetback is a racial slur.
