Here's the thing, Joe... I find his forced segregational views to be just as distasteful as your forced integrational views... which is why I claim that you are both hard-core statists. Just be glad this isn't my forum, BOTH of you would be out of here... I am of the opinion that BOTH of you fall into the 2nd category of my sig line, despite your "innocent" protestations that you are just trying to "effectively communicate openly" or whatever the lame-ass excuse of the day is.
Sorry, but you must've missed something in my posts. I am NOT in favor of "forced integration" of any kind.
What I AM for, is for all Americans who enjoy Constitutionally protected Rights equal with all other Americans to live as they choose.
I never said anyone has to live in a particular place, and I'm against busing and all that jazz too.
If someone can afford a particular house, it's ok with me. Just don't ask me to pay their down payment.
When's the last time you heard a "Stateist" say they want all social programs done away with? If I had the power to end them all tomorrow, I would.....including my own moms social security. I hate socialism.
Do I still sound like a "Statist"?

FACT: I haven't seen this place so heated and in flames in months.
Probably not since Phoenix went off the deep end, huh?

It's been relatively peaceful, other than some complaints about the new software. What's changed? About 10 Book/Ximmy vs. Joe King threads, where nobody involved has the good sense to shut the fuck up. Get my drift?
Joe.. you KNOW who you're dealing with on this forum, you KNOW you aren't going to change their minds, yet you CONTINUE to inflame.
I thought I was being polite in my postsand I wasn't trying to change Books or Ximmys or Generals mind. Just allowing them to post in public how they really feel.

Defend yourself? I don't see anyone attempting to use deadly force on you, or besmirch your real-world reputation...
My online rep is the same as my real-World rep. As in, I treat others the same no matter where I am.
That includes treating them "in kind".
People who are bad to me get worse in return and those that are good get better in return.

this is an INTERNET CHAT FORUM, for godsake! You are PROVING the old maxim that even if you win the special olympics, you're still a retard. Enough said... keep it up and there might be a rare "no trolling/inflaming" ban in the near future.
Hey, as long as it applies to those who have attempted to inflame me too.
Does it?
Am I going to see Book continue inflaming others by taking their posts out of context in an attempt to make people look stupid?
I feel that I have kept my cool under extraordinary fire.....for posting nothing more than what amounts to my opinion.....and what amounted to the "golden rule".
I am going to keep posting my opinion on threads that interest me. If I get attacked for it, and I am not allowed to respond to it, I will expect something to be done about it.
One other thing you and everyone else here probably should know about me is that I try to examine issues as they are presented with a critical eye.
The only way some things can be gotten to the root of, is by asking questions that test the theory....so to speak.
I am of the mind that if a theory is solid, it can withstand a bit of scrutiny.
Some people who are quick to jump on bandwagons tend to see my approach as contrarian, but I am just trying to get to the root of whatever issue happens to be at hand at the time.
I like to call it critical analysis.
Again, if you banned General because of what he posted to me, don't bother as I have not been looking to get anyone banned.......when you banned him the first time, I thought he and I were just joking around a lil bit.
So I'm fine if you let him off early this time, too. I harbor no ill-will towards him and also extend an olive branch his way.
Also, keep in mind that if it wasn't for Phoenix shitting up the forum last year and making it hard to read, I'd still just be a lurker here.
So everyone should thank him for getting me to the point of wanting to post at all.
I came here after the GIM split because I liked the fact that this place had better rules and did not censor.
I like reading alot of the stuff people post here. Why's it so damed difficult to say anything?
...and I do have pertinant stuff to say, as I was learning all about our backassward upside down POS debt based ponzi-scheme of a monetary sysytem long before most here probably knew what the fed even was.
It's only been about 35 years now, that's all.
Thank you for taking the time to respond, Gaillo.
