What chance does democracy, or freedom have?

99.99999999999% People have a personality disorder, a severe personality disorder, or mental illness. That leaves about 25 people in 65 million odd with perfect mental health. 5 to ten per cent of people are VERY VERY stupid. The average iq is 100, that means the vast majority of people are simply stupid. About 5% of people are bright.

That means that people like Buc, who when confronted by logic, for some reason posts a picture of Martin Luther King, that must, in his mind, solve everything.
Buc is like a psychopathic American with a gun, mowing people down in a school. He does not own a gun though, he has a vote which he must wave heroically on his way to a voting booth.

To vote for anarchy. What chance does democracy have when people like Buc, Griff, most northerners, scots, the Irish, the french, germans, italians, err, maybe not them, indeed anyone, who is entitled to a vote, actually votes?

Jeremy.

I worry Frank.

Frank, when IQ is tested, the median score is set at 100, so 100 is ALWAYs the average for each test. Last time mine was tested it was 132. I make it a matter of principle to vote; it's what (historically) family members fought and died for. And if you don't vote, you have no reason to moan; no excuse if things don't get done the way you want them.

Hush now.

It's been a while since I've seen someone bandy their IQ around like that - thanks, I enjoyed that.

I have to tell you though that 100 is not "ALWAYs the average for each test".

Anarchy look no further than America for that ..

But here in the UK we do have a vote but what's the saying you who cast the vote decides nothing the people who count the votes decide everything. The Westminster government is one of the most brutal governments in the world and pretend to do things for the right reasons if anyone needs IQ testing its that lot..

The house of lords needs to be shut down full of unelected people making decisions on behalf of us..

I would vote to boot them out as I'm sure most would think of the millions we would save and the lives we would save pumping that wasted money into the NHS .. They get paid to go there and snooze.who else gets paid to sleep .

No Frank I don't have a gun but I stand up for the working man .

And may I say Griff is a very intellectual lad.

Well, that's what they told me at the time, though they have to have enough folk taking each test to establish the average to an acceptable degree of statistical significance. And it was a VERY long time ago. I haven't bothered since; I'm sure age has taken its toll.

I have absolutely no idea, I completely made that up. I did sit an IQ test when I worked at the world famous shipping register based in Fenchurch Street and no one in the room got less than your score (sorry I just made that up as well, Ive no idea what the other guys got).

I had a bit of a set to with a guy in Dows last night. He said 'how can you vote REMAIN in the UK Europe referendum, when you voted YES in the Scottish Independence referendum'. I said 'well the same way you can you vote OUT in the UK Europe referendum, when you voted NO in the Scottish Independence referendum' Ive honestly never seen anyone look so flummoxed. As he was floundering, trying to catch his breath, I hit him with my verbal upper cut 'anyway what's wrong with being independent in Europe - it works for France, Germany, Spain etc etc'. He almost fell over.

IQ tests only measure how good you are at doing IQ tests.
