      Probably longer than yours. Why, are you upset that someone who actually studies this for a living disagrees with you?

      Youre gonna find that in science a lot.

        I’m not upset that you disagree with me, but the idea of human intervention in natural systems affected by unnatural actions from the same human intervention doesn’t make any sense. We hunted buffalo to extinction for capitalism. Did we control the population enough for you?

        I’m glad you’re comfortable being disagreed with though. It probably happens a lot.

          You think the intentional extinction of a species for the purpose of ethnic cleansing is the same as metered population hunting?

          And youre surprised the science disagrees with you?

              Then you feel about as well as you think, cause I havent even fired a gun since I was 20, recreationally or otherwise.

              Its cute how you tried to turn an attack on native americans into some parallel with restricted hunting seasons tho. Insanely racist and massively offensive to the native american survivors, but also quite cute in a “bumbling dipshit” kinda way.

              Do you do that often? Say really racist shit to mask how little you actually understand about the topic?

                Oh brother… I didn’t realize I was arguing with a moron. My mistake, smooth brain.

                  Right, right. When you get caught saying racist things, drop some 4chan slang.

                  High class, you really are cementing why your voice is of a higher caliber than decades of scientific research.

                    You clearly know more about racism, 4chan and being a fucking nut job better than anyone here so I’ll defer to you on matters you’re clearly more knowledge about than me.

                    Anyone truly in the scientific community would know that challenging long held scientific beliefs and having those change with new evidence is what it’s all about. But then again what can any of us expect from someone who jumps to talks about racism in an argument about any thing other than race.
