Um... short for etcetera.
"Etc." often replaces actual supporting evidence.(see: anecdotal evidence) People who like to argue, but are too lazy to actually argue, often use "etc" along with whatever.

[edit] Alternate spellings
It is not uncommon to see various incorrect spellings, such as "ect.," "&c.," and "ecg." All of these are wrong, and you're a terrorist if you use them.
