Multi-modal transportation back in the day

First of all, I wouldn't even know about this truly sad little local story if you hadn't brought it up yourself in another thread. Second, how is posting a news story (however tangential) an "ad hominem attack?" For someone who seems to make a career of jumping into situations that don't remotely involve you with bizarre personal attacks and judgments (every pedestrian or cyclist killed by a car MUST have brought it on themselves; every young black guy killed on the street MUST have been a gang member; every adoptive family with special needs kids MUST be a bunch of money-sucking leeches) you're being a tad over-sensitive. Toughen up, buttercup.

But eventually children develop reasoning ability, which means they would have to have a reason for saying what they say.

Of course, children who are raised properly also develop things like empathy. For instance, if a man were to lose his 19 year old son to violence, a properly raised child wouldn't decide to seek out the fault in the deceased. They would accept that see that the man is hurting and at least not say anything. Of course, children who are not properly raised might not do that. Say they were raised to be racist. In that case, they would find reasons to make those of different races lower than them. Or say they were sociopaths. In situations like that, they would lack empathy, which would make belittling victims of crime somehow acceptable. Or if they were raised without any boundaries they could just end up being assholes when they get older.

You know, you are one of the few people who use their actual names on this website, which means I could easily look up all those things that people say you did or say. The thing is, I've never done that. You, on the other hand, like to look up bad things about people who do not visit this website and post about them. That would be the difference between you and I.
