Bzzz! Sorry, wrong answer.
You make the charge, you prove it. Innocent until proven guilty and all that. "They did not want to let swine flu in" is a sound, correct statement until someone proves otherwise.

I asked if they let the virus in on purpose. your opinion (I think it's an opinion, or is it fact that you base your answer on?) is that they didn't, and I said that you don't know for sure anymore than I know for sure that they did.
and you want me to prove my question, whilst your opinion has to be fact?

Re: Pandemic (Swine) Flu
You asked a rhetorical question. If you're now claiming that it was a genuine question in search of an answer, rather than a thinly veiled statement of what you think happened, then my opinion is you're back-tracking. Mind you if you're given to believe such paranoid nonsense I suppose back-tracking a little is no bad thing.

If it was a rhetorical question that you quoted in answer to, then would your answer be any different if it was a genuine question? and is it not you backtracking knowing now that you answered as fact?

Re: Pandemic (Swine) Flu
Dress your paranoid fantasies up any way you like, you won't make anyone more likely to take them seriously.

Thanks for the free psychological evaluation but as it's free I won't complain
If you think I'm not thinking rational, then you must think this one's off his head.

Of course I am. I'm resisting the temptation to put logic and reason on the same footing as paranoid nonsense. The minute we allow ourselves to debate both as if they're of equal merit, we're sunk.

One mans paranoia is another mans fear.
it's interesting that you give reasons to dismiss it, and why it's best to dismiss it. but you don't have to fight it. it don't bite
