Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.

The following things are not grounds for murder:

Rules:

  1. Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
  2. Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
  3. No bigotry of any kind.
  4. Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
  5. If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
  6. Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

Not even that. Brilliant people made brilliant things, word reached his vulture ear, and he bought their company.

People, stop giving your money to schmucks. Don't let them buy your company, take control, and fuck shit up. Aim for sustainability, not impossible growth.

Oh he didn't buy it. He placed loyal people in the board of directors and had them vote to give him control of the company. He didn't buy it, be stole it.
