Did you ever get in an endless debate online with a statist who never quits?

These people spend hours debating against an obvious fact such how the Patriot Act and the Income Tax is illegal. Some of these debates go on for weeks as these people always try to get the last word in.

No, usually just hand them what I think is maybe hot-button video for that particular individual and remark that they may be ready for this later, or not...I am often surprised how some of them start becoming more receptive, but you have to first crush one cherished icon.

i used to do that to the point i'd want to choke them. Now i just state my points and if i see i'm dealing with a dick, i just click on something else. I used to work at an agency where people would try to hand me endless amounts of shit and even call back if i hung up on them. Then i got the brilliant idea to open a drawer in the desk, put the receiver in it, close it and wait for the 'if you would like to make a call...'. Worked every time!

Jay Adkisson at who is a tax attorney at Quatloos is verbally abusive and arrogant. He also threatened me personally with imprisonment. He would also debate endlessly.

Why waste your time? They're not going to change, and they'll keep you tied up for weeks when you could be doing something more constructive. Tell the truth, establish your arguments, and then move on.
