Actually you’re right. You’re not capable of debating, so it’s best that you not try. During our last go-round you ignored every question that I asked. Simple, straight forward questions that I asked you were simply ignored. Instead you just called me names like the little juvenile punk that are.

Trust me, you’re not normal in any sense of the term.

You don’t recognize anything. I’m baffled that you think you know the thoughts and beliefs of an anonymous individual posting on a website message board.

It would also seem that you are as clueless about the world around you. You’re inability to interact with basically anyone is proof of this.

In the 4 plus years that these message boards have been here, you are the only board member I have had any problems with. You’re a disturbed little man.

I actually invite sloth to check out posts I have made in the past and compare them to the feces that come out of harris’s little brain every time he posts.

I’m respectful when I post, harris is just opposite, as anyone can see.

LOL!

No you can’t. Just because you’re Jew, doesn’t mean you get a pass.

I don’t know where you “learned” that warped kind of thinking, but it is idiotic and divisive.

I doubt this concerns you.

Most of what harris says is inaccurate.

Somewhere under all this there is actually a topic that can be addressed… or maybe the two of you would rather continue to pat each other on the back and offer each other mutual support or whatever the heck it is that is going on?[/quote]

I simply agree with him, kind of like how you are agreeing with harris. What is going on with the two of you?

Do normal humans stand there and debate with people wearing Klan masks? Or the Black Israelites screaming nonsense in Times Square? Or fundamntalism Muslims?

Trust me, you’re not normal in any sense of the term.

No. Sensible humans recognize hatred for what it is, call it names, and laugh at it.

Like everyone here laughs at you.

And “sloth”…you should check dusty’s posts and see what kind of guy he is before you’re so thrilled a knight in shing armor came charging to your pretty little side.

No, I’m not the only member you’ve had problems with.

Numerous other members have called you out for your Neo Nazi avatar, which you have never fully explained.

Everyone knows what you are.

I will never respect you, as you do not deserve anyone’s respect.

Therefore, I can make Jew jokes and decide whether others’ jokes are offensive or not.

No you can’t. Just because you’re Jew, doesn’t mean you get a pass.

Please explain to us all why my being Jewish has you “laughing out loud”.

And…are my actions as “divisive” as using a flag associated with White Supremacist groups?

Aren’t you one of those people that believes in absolute morality? What does time have to do with anything?

Anyway, my actual point still stands. Can we not separate the work from the individual that produced it? I mean, what if a racist farmer produced the food that is on my dinner table, perhaps I’d better not eat it!

Now, I do understand not going out of my way to support the efforts of people that one judges to be working against the current accepted mores of society, don’t get me wrong. That is different than expecting appreciation of previous work to suddenly switch… because the work itself is unchanged.

Or, back to the meal example, we’ve already eaten the food, so there is no point trying to reject past appreciation of it. However, we can decide not to get our food from that producer again!

It depends on who it is. Often it gets them to put a lot more thought into their posts so that they aren’t so apt to post pure garbage.

Selfish of me, I know.

Dusty,

Somehow, I don’t expect you to discern between having similar views at times and working together to hammer on someone.

Thanks for taking the time to provide an illustration of the concept I’m talking about…

Did the conversation not include me? Who are you claiming to have worked together? It was me, that Dusty agreed with, concerning the slang usage of the word, after all. Therefore, I fail to see how I wouldn’t be involved in your comment.

Seriously though, Harris hates white people. See how he took a clear, concise statement you made about how you detest the “N” word, then spun it around to make you look like the racist? That is typical of Harris to do though.

Do you remember this? Dustin had replied to me. So obviously I’m being included in your “patting each other on the backs” and “working together” comments. Yet, I had asked of him one very specific question. Nothing more. Sounds more like he expressed a similar viewpoint, than the two of us actively working together.

Though, now that you have leveled a charge that involves both of us, you’ll claim any replies as illustrating your point.

No, what I was saying did not include you or refer to you.

My comment was about people jumping into a conversation for reasons other than simply to discuss issues… such as to back up another person or to attack another person.

Whether or not Dusty did such a thing has very little to do with you. However, you are now answering for Dusty and illustrating my point brilliantly. Thanks.

Who were you applying “patting each other on the back,” and “working together” to? Your comments concerning this started with a statement Dustin made to me. So how in the world does in not include me? “Working together” and “patting each othe on the back” does imply the active participation of at least two people, correct?

And thanks for illustrating my point.

By the way, how the hell are you exempt from your above statements? And, why did you not champion for me when I had Proff X and Harris both at me? Why so selective?

Note the lack of insults in my post. I gain nothing by belittling you. What do you get from belittling others?

Nonsense again. If someone produces beautiful work but were a child molester, do you still regard that work in the same light?

Adolf Hitler wrote some brilliant stuff, especially for a high school dropout. Do you laud the work and ignore the person? I’m saddened that such a brilliant mind got so corrupted by liberalism and altruism.

What the fuck is your malfunction?

Dusty has some history here so I am not willing to cut him a lot of slack. I am trying to illustrate a particular style of action of his.

It’s not all about you…

Nuthunter,

Because I am feeling generous due to your obviously lacking mental state, I’ll drop you a clue. The racism in the USA has always been present.

However, over time, systematic racism has dwindled. Thank goodness.

The fact you think this might be some type of “move” towards racism when it has always been present and previously in very visible, severe and damaging ways, once again shows you to be the clueless nut that you are.

Congrats![/quote]

This is your very first post. It followed a couple of other negative posts. Is this not an attack?

So, are we patting each other on the back? You included me by saying that. You have an oppurtunity to clear this up now. Are we working together? Yes, or no?

Unfortunately, you chose to uses phrases that require the active participation of more than one person.

However, I’m now mostly interested why you don’t apply your standards to yourself. And, why you didn’t aid me against Proff X and Harris, when I had both attacking me. Again, why so selective?
