Oldskool Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Originally posted by docdru Hahahaha...that was a good one....hahahahaha Originally posted by Destino That's right, don't protest because it's a sign of intolerence. Can I get a price check on arm bands please, price check on arm bands. Don’t be a tool and even try that stupidity on me. You have more than a right to protest anything you bloody want to in this country. HOWEVER, you cross the line when you start acting like animals and lose all human decency. Swearing at convention goers? Physical assault? If you cant express yourself in an intelligent manner and act civil, perhaps you should forfeit your ability to protest. I mean if you don’t have the mental capacity to express yourself without acting like a chimp, im sure you cant wrap your brain around the issues, now can you?

pr11fan Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Originally posted by Burgold Just imagine, if it was the early 19th century after the shenanigans of the election Bush and Gore would have settled it with a duel. Bush still would've won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prosperity Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Everything I have seen on the news suggests that the protests have been peaceful overall. You will find ass holes that get violent just to get violent because they think they can get away with it during a protest not because they believe in one parties ideology. Take the anarchist for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BG Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Originally posted by docdru How do you know that was a liberal and not just someone who knew you and hated you personally. Sorry, communist. These days there is a very fine line between the two. I don't make, or have, enemies. Originally posted by Destino You want to "destance" yourself form the left because of crime related to you "Bush campiagn sticker." Let me explain something to you, until you drive around in southern VA with a Kerry sticker on your car, you don't know what hatred is. My aunt was almost driven off the road, and threatened with rape by passing compassionate conservatives. You don't indentify yourself as a democrat in many areas of this country, and having your sticker pulled off is the very least of your concerns if you do. Yes I do want to distance myself. Not to downplay your story, but I don't appreciate knife marks all over my back windshield for displaying a sticker that harmlessly shows who I support. Furthermore, if that is supposed to sway me, or make me recognize this persons' values or political affiliations' values, then he/she should go live in Cuba. I've had Clinton bumper stickers and Nader bumper stickers on my car and never had any problems. For clarification sake, this was done by someone who knew me and I considered our relationship a "friendly accquaintance." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldskool Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Originally posted by docdru Of course you have one example versus the hoards of unintelegent, professional liberal protesters.

Burgold Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 " Protesters drive me crazy, yeah they should have the right to do it, but do they ever accomlish anything? They want to be heard more than they want there ideas heard, they know want they don't want, not what they want. They are crazy loons who will use violence to protest violence. Those moes are CRAZY." Man, I would have hated to be around most of you guys after the Boston Tea Party. Bunch of Torries here. Protesting never does any good? I thnk the civil rights marches and protests of the '60's did some good. I think the Rosa Parks Bus Boycott did a wee bit of good. Of course to most Republicans... maybe the Boston Tea Party, the abolotionist movement, Women's Sufferage, and the Civil Rights movement were all bad?

Burgold Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 I always think those types of misspellings are freudian slips. I mean we know it's a typo... but, it's such an odd typo that I think it's the unconscious mind saying... not even I believe what I'm writing.

Stu Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Originally posted by Burgold Man, I would have hated to be around most of you guys after the Boston Tea Party. The Boston Tea Party was part of the Revolution in which we used force to throw the existing government out and set up our own current government. Are you advocating another revolution of that magnitude? If not, I think civil protest will suffice don't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgold Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Actually, the Boston Tea Party was well before the actual revolution and most of those involved in the action wanted to jar the Brittish Crown into changing their taxation practices. Very few of those involved were advocating out and out revolt at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was more a response to Thiebears "You can not point you finger in my face and shout the f bomb or Nazi or some other racial/obcene word..." and Stu's "What has become of civil discourse when concerning the political direction of our land?" Frankly, right-wingers lamenting the demise of civil discourse cracks me up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
