  Older people, children, people with disabilities, people laden down with packages.  :angel:



   And Val Kilmer.  :green:

And you will just have to sit in his lap won't you?  Sneaky. 

Edit - I made this post before I read Ice Queen's post.  Great minds know you.

  And great Queens think alike!  :queenie:

Oh, and Rage: you might want to listen to what the man says. You will not agree on everything but it is often worth it to listen to views other than your own.

Here's my point: you have been rather more vocal about violence towards those you feel deserve it lately. Now, I doubt you'd act on it but others, from outside this place, reading might think so. They'd see a bunch of spazzes with a dx in common, see a rather vocal guy advocating violence for everything he doesn't believe in, an ex-army guy to boot, and think that yes, spazzes can be like that and wasn't some school shooter diagnosed with that shit? And see what happened.

They should all be locked away. There should be laws against allowing people like that to carry arms. There should be laws to protect us. And for chrissakes, do something about that site.

How easily the public mind is swerved when need be.

I am not about to tell you to stop. I don't think anyone can actually use this to take down the site. But I can see Sky's point.

*sigh*

I cannot argue that logic, Odeon. Sky is a cunt, and I relished giving him a bit of satire to be annoyed with. But you're right. Perhaps I should modify some posts?

No, I don't think you need to. But even if you don't like someone, you might still want to keep your mind open.

Incidentally, if the data miners concerned with homeland safety did spot this site, there would be cause for concern because there are plenty of ways to shut down a site. Just sayin'.

Doubt seriously if your rhetoric would take down this site

dont go getting the bighead

Data miners will eventually see it, though

They are looking for homegrown terrorists

790 billion dollars has been spent on homeland security in the last decade

Most of it approved by the very people in congress whom you seem to have an alliance with.

The NRA's bullshit about background checks isnt about the background checks at all

They could give a shit

Its about controlling their politicians

Its about power and their alliance with the Koch brothers

Which we all should know is about nothing but power, since they have all the money in the world

But I digress

You need to tone it down 

Cause that government you are ranting against, is watching



we know how you feel and support your right to feel that way

excuse me

but what the hell

are you talking about I

can't really follow your train of thought

you seem to have

at least some of the

right

ideas but

you confuse me for someone

who gives a flying fuck that

big brother is watching I would

punch him even harder with

my propaganda in

retaliation for even lifting

a

finger

Doing the best I can here, while witnessing all the filthy greed and cruelty around me. Makes me mad, bro.

When I used to ride on Amtrack in college I would ride in between the cars by the doors to avoid the whole issue of giving up your seat.  They didn't bug you about being underage and drinking there either

Around here, I can rarely get a seat on my way into town anyway.

What about hosting the site in a country that doesn't give a fuck about American or Swedish authorities? Wouldn't it be possible?

id stand next to some seated young punk and fart in his/her face.  Then blame the stench on them.
 That's called a double whammy.

Sure, but I haven't found a good host and most of the time it's not enough of an issue to warrant the hassle of moving the site.

Equally important:  If he offered you his seat, would you take it?

A good monarch is a treasure. A good politician is an oxymoron.
