QuoteYour opinion has no place in this conversation especially if you are as bold to state things you have in the past.
Ah, so that's where you are coming from. See, before you got involved and derailed this thing, we WERE just throwing opinions around, it wasn't a debate and nobody was trying to prove anything (different "prove" than the one you are thinking of btw). Then, you came in and derailed it. Most people went with you and debated, but I thought it might turn in to something like this so I kept with my opinion. Opinions and facts and evidence are not mutually exclusive.
And I love that quote. that is precisely why I didn't want this to turn into an argument, because cold hard facts about the US vs. the EU are not as interesting as what we had going on before. You did it anyways though, and you were completely on top of it from your end, which was a good move, but you just jumped right in assuming everyone else was too. That was your mistake.
