If we did that what would street cleaners do for a living?

I find it hard to believe that cutting down the trees in the middle cut off some stream of wildlife that wouldn't have been cut off cutting down a similar number of trees at the edge. And as I find it hard to believe, even if it's true, it seems likely that the people doing so would also.

Not being a person involved in the tree cutting business it's also possible that they actually had a reason for starting in the centre.

Clean the streets old skool style a mop and a bucket

Not at all...

That's a solution to you. That's mass genocide to the rest of the world.

I don't have one, but not having one is better than MOABING/Nuking/etc a large population of the world.

Re: Arrogance
 

Actually, I'd say having a terrible solution that still fixes the problem is better than still having the problem...

Re: Arrogance
 

Not really, considering it would effect more than just Africa...

Re: Arrogance
 

Africa and so on are only a problem if you care. Solution: stop caring.

A sunbeam came down from on high and suddenly all was right with the world.

Re: Arrogance
 

It's true. The world is a much better place when I just pretend Africa doesn't exist. Though I can't do that for too long, I'm too nice to just ignore it, but not nice enough to do anything about it (yet.)

K. However the radioactive fallout of just one bomb will contaminate at least one continent depending on where it's detonated. Violence is never the answer. You only perpetuate intolerance doing so.

A better idea, how about we do that right here in the US and try to convince those religious nutjobs that having 20 kids isn't a good thing simply because the vagina can pump them out. I wish they were more rare then they really are.

So use a chemical weapon instead.

It may not be the answer you like but it's certainly an answer. Those who disagree should conjure up the ghosts of the civilisations who did not and for whom the matter was resolved.

If Nitestryker really was about to launch his genocide campaign are you telling me you'd tolerate him? That, even believing it's wrong, you wouldn't kill him if given the option?

Our society is fucked up because of this ideology of not fighting for what you believe in. Tolerate everyone, violence never solved anything; the old self-interested clichés. Some things shouldn't be tolerated; some things are worth killing and dying over.

You can be sure if you’re not prepared to do the killing to reach an end you desire someone else, probably someone not as nice as you, will do it to reach the end they desire; either with economics in the case of more developed nations or with physical weapons in the case of internal rivalries; hence the state of Africa today.

Re: Arrogance
 

Well i suppose you are right that there are things worth fighting for but killing and dying is a bit harsh I would say. Killing for land and resources and dying for lets say religion really is not worth it, actualy thats just a sad waste of a life that could bring happines to an other persons.
When someone gets greedy none should suffer for it. Defending and fighting for whats yours,family etc yes but none should be above another.

And people could switch their lights off and not stay in the shower fo 30min and use 'green'product. hmm maybe climat changes and the A.I:s taking over the world is not just because we are arrogant basterds but Greedy basterds.
