People who don't know how to accept loss in a debate piss me off. When its obvious their argument has been crushed they just take one little fact from mine, and they give me some facts on it, or argue against that and don't even provide a proper rebuttal. They should just say "I'm wrong." Or keep going with the debate. Not just be a fucking bitch. Here's an example of what I'm talking about.

Me: Races can't be biologically criminal because it is all environmental. It is proven that people who have bad childhoods are more likely to be hostile, and that is with any race. The poor minorities in the inner city usually have bad childhoods with gang trouble so they become more hostile. White people have had horrible living conditions in Europe yet they did not have easy access to guns back then and were forced to make a living from work or else be killed whereas the sentences here today are less severe. White people are not considered biologically criminal yet they commit more fraud than anyone else, wouldn't the families of people who commit fraud be biologically criminal? Wouldn't they all be committing fraud whenever they could? If there were crime genes then wouldn't a lot of the people from Sicily area be criminal? And if crime is genetic then why do people leave gangs when they are from criminal families and why do people join when they are from non criminal families?

Other persons response: Weapons aren't easily accessed today. They have a price, but people in the inner city have to steal them. So it isn't easy to get them.

What the person basically did, was took one thing I said and created a new argument. I've encountered quite a few people like this, they always try and change the subject when they lose.
