Seriously. That is probably the single dumbest thing I've read on the Outpost all month.

If you want to keep these things off the Outpost you should probably vote for the ordinance I presented.


It says "ukishiro is here-by elected Dictator for life and Lord of the Outpost."


You should vote for it.

Judges and juries sometimes need interpreters in court cases. We should get rid of judges and juries and just have the interpreters decide things instead.

I should run for Japanese office. I'm sure I could be quite effective as they Mayor of Tokyo.



Sony is run by a guy who doesn't speak Japanese. Or at least didn't speak much before he took the job. I don't know if he's learned since.

Your point is beyond stupid.



I didn't know Sony only had offices in Japan! And only sold product to Japanese folk..

Learn something new every day.

Send Sony a letter. Tell them they should fire their CEO and hire his interpreter to be the CEO instead.



Wai..we should, with tax payer dollars, hire an INTERPRETER for a non English speaking Mayor?

WTF world do you live in?

ANd you comparing that to a FOR PROFIT company doing the same is beyond stupid.

Here's an idea: Let the people decide this at the ballot box.

You guys almost certainly spend way more on this law than you would have saved. Because no one is likely to ever be elected who needs an interpreter, but you have to design the test and give it to every single candidate for elected office.


Also, it would be the tax money of the people who voted to elect the person. So if they voted for them that's probably a pretty good sign they think they're good enough for the job even if it means another dollar in taxes each to pay for the interpreter.


So basically you are wrong about every single thing you've claimed in this thread. Congratulations.

Some gubmint bereaucrat shouldn't be telling me what to do! Personal freedom!

The gubmint shouldn't be telling me I can't spend money to elect my candidate! Personal freedom!



RWNs on welfare posted:

If people make bad financial choices they should just suck it up and not expect any help from the gubmint. It's their own fault and that's what personal freedom is all about!



RWNs on who can run for office posted:

Some government bereaucrat should determine whether someone is fit to run for elected office. Especially if they're brown. People can't be trusted to make the choices themselves at the ballot box. People must be protected from their own choices.
