Women more at risk from climate change: Canadian at UN conference
07:42 PM EST Dec 15

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) - Severe weather caused by global warming can pose greater physical danger to women than men, a Canadian attending a UN conference on climate change said Friday.

"For instance, often women don't know how to swim, so in a flood situation that can lead to a higher instance of death or injury," Angie Daze, a program manager with a Canadian group called Reducing Vulnerability to Climate Change, said.http://www.cbc.ca/cp/world/041210/w121092.html

I am going to ban you, but only because I have warned you several times to stop referring to people who post here as fat ass liberals (FALs), and explained to you that I would ban you if you did it again. And you did, so bye!!!!!!!

You're so funny! You keep saying you will not censor your political views for anyone, but no one here has ever asked you to do that (unless your entire range of political expression is name calling). Perhaps it is--I note that you are banned on 15 threads and 87 people have you on ignore. What a popular guy!

I look around here and I see that most of the posters are definitely conservative. They manage to stay within the Feelies terms of use without any problems at all. I would ban a liberal if one violated the Feelies rules repeatedly the way you did, but no one has. I have said several times that anyone can PM me if they see a rules violation, because I don't get to every post really quickly, but I am not getting any PMs, so I assume the liberals are behaving themselves.

Now everyone can blather and bleat and whine about this if they want to, but I am not going to discuss it any further because Jlallen cannot defend himself and it seems like a violation of his privacy to go on and on and on.
