Free speech means that I have a right to express or spew thoughts and words of preference, love, hate, or anything with which another may disagree. That said, the rules or policies of this forum, which is my private property (see this forum's Mission Statement), are that members can exercise free speech as long as they (1) do not make a specific threat against an identifiable person or target, (2) earnestly debate or discuss the relevant issues that are part and parcel of this forum's reason-to-be. First, I should clarify that Rule #1 includes fellow posters. As you all know, I have a very liberal and tolerant free speech policy here. There is no rule against ad hominems or profanity. However, I have noticed of late a marked increase of both to the point where it's become most unsavory and is setting a tone that, I feel, is beneath us as reasonable and mature adults. Other than the two specified rules to which I expect adherance, no one's speech is constrained, so I'm requesting that you please employ self restraint. You know who you are. ;)

Is Turtle sinning again????
By the way those cheap Bell Hop pants you bot for cynicon, Jeff and me split, and, well, cynicon got the wait staff excited from the night before and lets just say you can deduct a couple of hours off from Thursdays time sheet. Turtle Island is looking to be a pretty good place.
"Satan / Cheney in "08" Might want to reconsider your syntax there bro. In defense of chelonian syntax, I will state unequivocally that what we have here is a fine specimen of a perfectly formed noun clause nested within a non- restrictive adjective clause modifying "army." Turtle hammers out OK grammar on the keyboard, which never manages to interfere with his strange brand of reptilian logic.
Join 2x4 Tuesdays & protect your RKBA. This is a welcome revision of the rules. Thank you. Oh, lookie, the worst violator of such new standards of behavior demonstrates with his signature he still does not get it. Listen Rotara, discussion that you do not agree with nor get does not then denote a '4UM traitor.' Get a life, and get a clue.
Don't use your anti-state smear tactic to villify someone with whom you disagree with concerning killing animals for fun, or from airplanes so that others can have the "pleasure" of killing larger trophies for their wall. Nobody said anything about taking rights away from states, but then again, do you think the state should have absolute power? The aerial shooting of wolves from airplanes is more of a moral issue than a legal one. However, the people of Alaska have TWICE banned aerial hunting in two separate referendums, but were twice overturned by their own legislature. That's more of a politician's right (and those who bribe them) matter than a state's rights issue, as the people are obviously not being represented by their own elected officials. Last time I checked, the state is supposed to represent the will of the PEOPLE of that state, not the interests of lobbyists who bribe the right people.
Turtle's Brain works ten times faster than his turtle paws.
Mike... Civility is always welcome. We are all in the same boat, so whacking each other with the oars instead of rowing makes it tougher on the other oarsmen. No one expects people to kiss and make up but a pat on the back now and then is helpful. Whacking turtle is allowed.
Like the MOB does it ??? or like sissies in canoes do it ???
If a thousand men were not to pay their tax bills this year, that would not be a violent and bloody measure, as it would be to pay them, and enable the State to commit violence and shed innocent blood. Henry David Thoreau - 1849
Well, like sissies, cause none of us are mobsters and we do like to have Turtle to kick around. (Nixon)
Was Nixon "Gay" too ???
If a thousand men were not to pay their tax bills this year, that would not be a violent and bloody measure, as it would be to pay them, and enable the State to commit violence and shed innocent blood. Henry David Thoreau - 1849
Good heavens, turtle is not gay. Just look at all the gurls we never see him with???? You mean he is funnin us rubes????
Turtle detects a weasel.
Take Interstate 40 East to the "Hershey Highway" ... make a "LEFT" and stop at the truck containing 2 400 lb. cross-dressers. Ask for Turtle !

I don't think turtle is gay. Heck, only a real "man" could get it up with turtle's "babes". I don't think even I am man enough for that, and I sure as shit ain't gay.
Make awkward sexual advances, not war. Valid point, for sure.

Get a life, and get a clue. You'd look good with a pin pulled grenade in your mouth. Or standing up against a wall. Or under a bus. You World Communist Traitor against America and every patriot alive or dead.
4um Traitor Civility is always welcome. We are all in the same boat, so whacking each other with the oars instead of rowing makes it tougher on the other oarsmen. No one expects people to kiss and make up but a pat on the back now and then is helpful. Whacking turtle is allowed. If that malodorous rodent Traitor were found on my side of the wire in or my boat I assure you the rodent would be dead quickly.
4um Traitor Didn't you take the time to read what Christine has just said about making threats against members here?
Unlike you, I have used grenades and have learned the proper way to use them. And I have been to war, have you? You are a loud mouth and a braggard with no concern for anything that is not your brand of maglomania and intolersnt political dogma. You dance at the edge of the new policy challenging it in a passive agressive fashion every bit as much as you do your little blow fish, or male peacock routine with me trying to impress yourself and others. Your use of patriot to cloak the true nature of brown boot behavior that systematically and thugishly eradicates what to people like you is unacceptable political advocacy and belief is contrary to the mission and purpose of this board. That you allegedly speak for the only true, patriotic perspective that should be tolerated is your little way to resonate with the sort of spirit Adolph Hitler operated in, nothing more. And here I don't have to do more than point out the obvious, as you are definitely more then willing and able to continually discredit yourself and show you are a thug wannabe, nothing more. Your childish and malicious use of violent references as to how opponents of yours' should be handled makes it clear to me that it is you, not me who are on the wrong board. This is a free speech zone, not a place to bully and threaten to attempt to drive others away or threaten their existence. Whine to someone else, like someone who actually gives a shit about your garbage. You are pathetic and amusing to me, little else.
Heh, since when did his hindmost ever care a bit about anything else then what his highly developed sense of megalomania produces? He doesn't care about what Christine does or says; only what he things, says and does. He is, in his opinion here to dictate, not listen to others.
Once again you little f**king World Socialist Obamalamadingdong pond scum sucking Traitor; you can't talk your way out of it. You asked for it, you're going to get it. Did you get your MillionCivilian Osnitch Corps assignment yet, you lying sack of shit America hater ?
4um Traitor You are a coward, and a fuck wad. Naturally one of the ways you like to shut down conversation and discussion is to accuse people of belonging to a conspiracy. Nobody gives marching orders to me, which you don't care, as the goal you serve is to shut people up, and to try to dehumanize them. I am here to tell you the bullying does not work, you do not scare me nor am I intimidated. I am disappointed this forum administration is gutless enough to put up with you, but as for you, clown, you don't mean shit to me. You are ignorant, intolerant, and here to shut down lively debate and discussion if one of the participants makes you wet your pants in anger because you disagree with them so.
O-ba-a-a-a-a-a-a-ma! Got Meadowgrass?
""I think the subject which will be of most importance politically is Mass Psychology...It's importance has been enormously increased by the growth of modern methods of propaganda...Although this science will be diligently studied, it will be rigidly confined to the governing class. The populace will not be allowed to know how its convictions were generated." Bertrand Russel, Eugenicist and Logician
You're lashing out from frustration, and in so doing you're also taking advantage of christine's good nature and high pain threshold. Let he who is without iniquity impart inertia to the first projectile. And, for the record it takes an incredible amount of guts to defend this free speech principle and policy. chris is a better man than me because (if it was up to me) I'd have kicked some folks to the moon by now.
And your opinion on this new death threat by Rot? Why do you try to bring fire to me and do not put heat to someone who takes pains to go against her policy stated in this thread. If you want to make an impact on me that causes pause, you don't do so by being unbalanced in your approach. Unless you address that too, your words mean nothing here.
I do not agree with the new POTUS on everything, and would love to engage in lively discussion in regards to him. But if there is a lynch mob's air of intolerance to discussion that keeps the setting on never respecting those who disagree with the mindset views that are solely allowed to be in play, I am not going to go out of my way to waste my time discussing with those who respect only their clique and mindset. I am here to tell you I am not gone from here either. I am impossible to drive away. I am fine with annoying you, right back at you.
Obama is quite the disappointment isn’t he?
FWIW I'd trust you over hounddog, any day, were the shit to hit the proverbial fan. Politically we are not on the same side, not even close, but at least you're honest about it and you probably have a better understanding on what we freedom lovers are up against. Unlike hounddog who is nothing more than a french surrender monkey and probably a cop too.
Click for Privacy and Preparedness files I stated my opinion in private and he politely acknowledged it. To have done so publicly would have defeated the purpose because his personality is different from yours and it would have almost certainly resulted in a "FUCK OFF!" had I posted for all to see. Now, we need to discuss your schedule to fit you in to the penalty box, because you certainly know better than to kick chris in the puss when you're upset.
Few things get up my nose like seeing another puppet in office after enduring eight years of Jr. If there is anything else that makes my eyes bleed it's a defense of the current Zero in the White House. It's just icing on the cake to see someone who can spell, and is otherwise seems to be a reasonable human being defend him. That's Ferret. But look: "If that malodorous rodent Traitor were found on my side of the wire in or my boat I assure you the rodent would be dead quickly." That is out of line. I think you need to control your temper. I share your hostility toward the forces now on the march that are going to send this country down the drain. But your comments, prove nothing, advance nothing, and do you no credit. This kind of back and forth looks better over on LP. It makes the forum an ignorant echo chamber of pointless vituperation. We've seen enough of it. It goes nowhere. Chrissy's right. We need to draw a line somewhere. I think suggesting that someone stick a grenade in his chops and pull the pin is a bit rich. I think both of you should retire to your corners.
Join 2x4 Tuesdays & protect your RKBA. Can u please stop with the PC buzz words? They might be appropriate for Psych 101 at some university of lower learning, but honest to christ they irritate the crap out of me.
You forgot "lynch mob."
Join 2x4 Tuesdays & protect your RKBA. I am fair to Christine not with abuse, but with a refusal to pander to her. I consider her a friend, and I tell friends when I disagree with them or where I see hypocrisy in regards to their actions or lack thereof. She is free to take issue with me or agree, I will listen. I refuse to be a blind Rotara with a confirmed thirst for the blood of those disagreeing with him, and who is obviously in the middle of having a bad Charlie Manson complex. If she takes issue with me, I always listen. My point is, not enough people take the time to listen to others, or respect the process of dialog or discussion in here. What is the point of a free speech forum if the main point of many is to drive away opposing views? I am here to tell you, this is not how free speech works.
Thanks, you're right. That phrase, to me, is meant to conger up an image of the Jim Crow South, circa, 1930. Victimhood makes my stomach churn.
Your post and my PM to Rotara are similar but that is coincidental. For the record you and I don't chat in private at all.
4um Traitor Well said, randge. I hope your advice is followed.
I'm glad you're here.
4um Traitor Oh yes, I know that makes your head swim, but no; I like diversity. It is a strength and a central notion to what the U.S.A. is, and that's just a fact of life you have to deal wiyh and come to terms about. It is something I am a proponent of. But thanks for sharing anyway.
Like I said..
4um Traitor No, we don't. But that's not because I hold anything against you. Cheers.
