So, if your neighbor murders your son, it's ok for you to kill them
all?

That's not what the cops say where I live. It's NOT OK for me to kill
off
the neighbors if they kill someone of mine. I'll certainly want to,
but
we
are a society of laws. We don't just start banging away on the
neighbors
with our M-16s trying to see how many we can kill. That leads to
anarchy
and everyone dies.

Why is murder OK when it's done by Zionists? I've wondered that for
years.



Laws of society? Yet you just got done telling me how all Jews should
die
or
AH should have "finished" the job.

You're a loon.

So why do you insist on debating with a loon? Do you think he will
suddenly stop being a loon if you argue with him enough?



Yes, you're right of course. It's a fine line between not allowing racist
stuff to go without saying anything and thus condoning it and ignoring
loons
as a matter of policy.

You can point out that a post is racist with one post in that thread
if you feel that every one is is less intelligent than you are and
can't figure it out themselves. That is not the same thing as engaging
in a debate.



I doubt that I'm more intelligent than anyone else here, which is doubless
why I posted multiple times on the subject.

You should have typed 'doubtlessly" (not doubless). Aside from the incorrect
spelling of the root word you compounded your folly by not using it as an
adjective. "Which is (doubtlessly) why."

You and Dave are equally illiterate. Or, perhaps I should say "equal
illiterate?? Bwaahahhahahah.

You need to clear up your muddled thought and expression, Neal. Are you
alleging that "doubtless" is an adjective, or that "doubtlessly" is an
adjective?

Without a doubt, it's doubtlessly when used as an adjective.

Perhaps I should commence writing to you using lower Flesch-Kincaid grade
level scores?

It would be better, perhaps, if you commenced by learning the difference
between an adjective and an adverb.

Maybe you should learn how to diagram a sentence. Let's take a look, shall
we?

"Which is (doubtlessly) why."

Which = Subject = noun
is = Verb
why = Object = noun

doubtlessly is a modifier of why. Therefore, it follows that doubtlessly is
an adjective, not an adverb.

ad.jec.tive \"a-jik-tiv\ n : a word that typically serves as a modifier of a
noun - ad.jec.ti.val \'a-jik-"tï-v?l\ adj - ad.jec.ti.val.ly adv

Not even close, Neal. Did your grammar lessens end in the third grade?


Sorry, Dave, but vague insults in lieu of reasoned rebuttal makes you a
loser in any debate.

Lessens?

Debating with Neal is never going to make you appear anything but
foolish, Dave. Spit the hook.


Like any typical, obfuscating lawyer, Dave is trying to make something
complicated out of something simple.

We are discussing a simple, four-word sentence. It has a subject a verb an
object and an object modifier. That's it! Dredging up non-applicable grammar
rules is not necessary. He's trying to save face but doing badly. He
apparently thought that doubtlessly was a modifier of the verb and,
consequently, an adverb. But any fool knows it's "doubtlessly why" and not
"is doubtlessly). If doubtlessly were an adverb the sentence structure would
be: "Which doubtlessly is why."

I guess Dave never learned the KISS rule. Or the logical order rule.

Poor attempt at post-editing in a failed attempt to further obfuscate.


I take back what I said, Neal. While the third grader would probably not
have recognized that your four words are part of a dependent clause
introduced the relative pronoun "which," the third grader would at least
have gone you one better by recognizing that your four words do not
constitute a sentence.

Do a little googling of "clause" and "sentence" and maybe you can start to
get this grammar stuff sorted out.

Sorry, but you're just plain wrong, Dave. All it takes to make a complete
sentence is a subject and a verb.

"Which is doubtlessly why." This is a complete sentence.

"Which is why." This is a complete sentence.

"Why me?" This is also a complete sentence.

"That is." This, too, is a complete sentence.

"Which is?" Same applies here - complete sentence.

Go to the back of the class! Don't forget the dunce cap.

Keep it up, Neal. The more you say the more you display your ignorance of
the language.

Take my earlier advice and google up "sentence," "clause" and "phrase"
before you dig yourself in even deeper.


I don't have to dig any deeper. I've managed to bury you as it is.

This is becoming tedius. "Doubtless" is correct, Wilbur. "Doubtlessly" can
also be correct, but is considered "clumsy."

Irrelevant! That link talks about "doubtless" used as an adverb and I have
shown, without doubt, that in the sentence, "Which is doubtlessly why," that
doubtlessly is used as an adjective since it is a modifier of the word "why"
and not a modifier of the verb "is."
