Adam: I wouldn't override a moderater edit if I were you. And while I have no problem with "fuckwits" and "assholes", I think that the racist insults are truely offensive. It's one thing to insult a person for being a moron, it is another thing to stereotype a race. Plus, I don't think any of us are black....Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! And, that is enough. I reopened this for you, but overriding my actions will not be tolerated. And yes, I know that it punishes the rest of y'all - thus I leave this open.
Riiight... Now, Xev, you've deleted my previous post: And you've removed your own post saying black people are monkeys, and claimed that I said such. Now, it's easy for you to make such a claim now that you have removed your earlier words. Great. Enjoy those editing privelages, hun. Maybe you could have some integrity and put your own post back? Show people how you equate "monkey" with "black people"? I thought not... Anyway boys and girls... Please follow these simple guidelines: 1) Stay on topic. 2) Do not discuss military governments; there is a thread for that in WE&P. I'm interested in your idea of the soldier. 3) Please do now, as our magnanimous moderator has done, infer that black people are monkeys. Let's leave out the childish insults and racial slurs, eh?
hush monkey boy! if you did not let loose that little nugget of info, perhaps this thread would have proceeded in a manner you had wanted. i bet a monkey would have had more sense! the next logical step is for you to offer an explanation that satisfies the malcontents and you will be back where you wanna be.
Adam: A patent lie. I made no such assertion, I would not, and I challenge you to show any evidence that I did. Since no such post exists, I cannot "put it back". Now, you are getting out of hand, first by using racial slurs and then by over-riding my edits. This thread was re-opened per another member's request - kindly cease your brattiness and stick to the topic.
Why 2 of u fighting over non-intended remarks? I suggest both of ur posts on this page should be removed for the forum's sake. (including mine - this post). :m:
You must realize, though that this comment is not in responce to Tiassa's comment. What you have done here is redefined a word for your own purposes, and are now trying to hold tiassa responceable for that new definitian. Tiassa is clearly talking about trained soldiers in a standing military, by your defenitian of soldier, anyone in a nation's army, or indeed anyone who is to be commanded by others, without any choice in the matter but to carry out his orders, is not a soldier. As such no one in the united states armed forces could be a soldier, even if they joined under the idea that they wanted to help preserve freedom, or whatever. Anyway, my point is that you souldn't get all upity about what tiassa said, when all you are doing is trying to put words in her mouth, and then redefining her argument accordingly, that's not a very fair way to conduct an argument.
Re: Back toward the topic... Guys with guns are sure as hell handy to have around when other guys with guns are trying to shoot at you, and that's pretty much my opinion on the matter.
My god man, then how could you ever say you support lennonism?! Do you support rounding up all the nations intelectuals and using them as slave labor, and working them until they die, as well? You know it was Lennon who was largely responceable for Ayn Rand's own Objectivism, but only through the fact that it was he and his government that drove her family out of Russia to come to America. The two are like completely incompadable, do a little reasearch, and I'm fairly confident that you'll come around, and even if you don't support Ayn rand 100% you've gotta' be sickend by communism, and how it REALLY works.
well to be fair..... remember the "philosopher ships"? intellectuals were ok as long as they toed the party line. open dissent was a one way ticket out of mother russia. their loss our gain
Adam, I hope you are aware that your tactics of throwing acccusations originally aimed at you back at your accuser, as if they were your own, is going unnoticed. Nor is your direct defiance of moderators. One would be persuaded to believe that you're developing a little case of megalomania here. I watched this thread unfold last night... Xev made no such comment. To use your own arguments, Adam, I'm sure you'll be able to point out exactly where she did... won't you? Unless of course, you're making baseless accusations again. This time, they're not even original. Some might even see them as lies. Regarding your "simple guidelines"... You're no longer in the navy Adam. Perhaps they threw you out or something, and you miss it. Point is, you can't give orders here. You have to be a mod to do that, and from memory, Adam, you lost the last vote. Save your orders for your groupies, and ask the rest of us nicely. Otherwise, prepare for disappointment.
