Flat Earthers and other regressions

[jelgate]

That the next generations problem to fix my mistakes and for me to whine when they ask for help.

Dinosaur extinction explained. Come at me Round Earthers.

I don't see Fred Flintstone in those photos. Fake news!

[Gatefan1976]

I always hope so.

We are the dragons, at least, some of us.

Can't think of anything else really...

Nope.
I get the "why should the majority pay for it" argument, I really do, what I don't understand is the idea that you let the people who benefit the most from it get a pass. THAT is the mindset that I truly do not understand.

But, SPACE dinosaurs!!!
It wasn't a meteor, it was a space dino!!!

[jelgate]

What if the meteor was the Dino's spaceship

[Chaka-Z0]

I think we should listen to GF's space Dino's theory. It's worth as much as a scientific theory right?

Of course it is, it was a space dino with an attitude that hit the earth.
DUH!!

He actually meant to go to Mercury. Dinosaurs aren't very bright, like flat earthers and climate change deniers

Also look on a map where Ottawa is Annoyed. Quite a long way from the Lakes.

But the fact remains that the Great Lakes all drain to the Atlantic through Erie, Ontario and then the St. Lawrence.

There is a "Joint Commission" of some sort that regulates the levels in Ontario via that dam on the St. Lawrence, and they've been making stupid choices since about 2014. They came up with some foolish plan to keep the levels high in the river to allow for shipping interests. It's been screwed up ever since. 2017 was for Ontario shoreline interests, this year, Canada is seeing the flooding.

Cool story, still not true.

Yes, I know, this a Democrats' web site.. but maybe that's the best way to educate lizards.

Show me the stupid choices.

[Annoyed]

Show me the stupid choices.

You would have to go into the history. The short version is that the Dam is on Canadian soil, and back around 2014 or so, they decided to alter criteria for adjusting lake/river levels to benefit shipping interests. (Large ocean-going freighters traverse that river frequently in the summer)

Ever since, there have been flooding issues on Lake Ontario and the river.

That was the stupid choice, and since it's on Canadian soil, the US has no control. The Joint commission is in name only, as a practical matter, Canada does what it wants.

So, when someone craps in your backyard, it's their problem, but when you crap in their backyard, it's theirs as well?
