Some people can't go a day without pushing bullshit down the throats of anyone that will listen. It's like they can't go without turning a topic into right vs. Left. This thread deserves to be flushed down the internet toilet.
For one of the Mods (or anyone else who might know): What is the longest thread in the Blazer OT section? I think this one has a chance of beating it at some point (if you don't include the NSFW stickies).
oh shut up. can't you recognize PapaG-directed hyperbole when you see it? take the audience into consideration
Why some people get so riled up on message boards beats me. It's like going on a site to specifically pick a fight and have your right vs. Left argument so you can go to sleep feeling like you shared the right opinion to some asshole that thinks differently than you. That'll show him!
What's more, you jump on me on not him? Did you even read what PapaG said, that it will literally be Obama's fault if there is a board exodus.
Once again, one side of the political spectrum loves the 1st Amendment, as long as they agree with it. When they don't, they tell you to shut up or label it hate speech.
Here is a good summation opinion piece of what is happening now with Holder and what has happened. I couldn't help but see a lot of Denny in the ideas that are mocked in the piece: Let’s take the advice of the attorney general of the United States. Let’s have a national conversation about race in the wake of the Zimmerman case. Let’s make it a painfully honest conversation — except about all the things that are painful for us to admit. Let’s take a tragedy and make it a racial crime. Let’s not acknowledge the evidence suggesting that Trayvon Martin was beating George Zimmerman. Let’s never, ever admit that if Martin hadn’t hit Zimmerman, he would almost certainly be alive today.

Let’s pretend that this happens all the time. Let’s send down the memory hole reports of burglaries and attempted break-ins in Zimmerman’s community that, according to a Reuters report, “had created an atmosphere of growing fear in the neighborhood.” Let’s ignore that Zimmerman is from a mixed-race household. Let’s forget that he initially didn’t mention Martin’s race on his 911 call and said he “looks black” only when prompted by the operator. Let’s disregard testimony about his good character, lest it get in the way of the national dialogue about how he’s a racist murder who got away with it. Let’s say the trial was about race in America or about whether black men can walk home from the store or any other insipid, racially charged nonsense to fill the air or the column inches. The national conversation cannot afford to get mired down in legal niceties like what constitutes lawful self-defense, let alone reasonable doubt.... Let’s not talk about the 90 percent of black murder victims killed by other blacks. That is not a fit topic for the nation’s wide-ranging national conversation. Why should we get worked up about something that happens on the streets of Chicago literally every night? If you are bothered by routine slaughter, sadly, you just don’t get it. For national conversation purposes, not all murders are equal. Let’s listen to the attorney general inveigh against Stand Your Ground laws and make believe that he knows what the hell he’s talking about. Let’s ignore that the Stand Your Ground law wasn’t the reason the Sanford, Fla., police initially didn’t arrest Zimmerman and that it had nothing to do with the trial. In short, let’s take a terrible event and make it a festival for all our ideological and racial ax-grinding and a showcase for our inability or unwillingness to reason clearly. Let’s do it in perpetually high dudgeon and while simultaneously patting ourselves on the back about our fearlessness and honesty.

You cannot be serious. You're taking ridiculous banter between me and PapaG and trying to make some liberals hate freedom point out of it? I'm telling you to shut up because you are practically trolling at this point.
here are some of the peaceful protests, as so eloquently stated by the news. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=04e_1374012582
I'm just posting reactions to posts I read. If it's just you and PapaG having good clean fun and you don't mean what you wrote, then I apologize for misunderstanding the context.
When it's PapaG, I gotta fight fire with fire and get down to the hyperbolic, belligerent level he's constantly operating in. When it's you, I try to keep it a little more high minded. either way, i don't blame you for not wanting to slog through 39 pages of this garbage to find the exact context.
President Race-Baiter is still at it. http://news.yahoo.com/-obama--trayvon-martin-‘could-have-been-me-35-years-ago’--180734663.html
After researching the FBI numbers for "Suicide of a Superpower," this writer concluded: "An analysis of 'single offender victimization figures' from the FBI for 2007 finds blacks committed 433,934 crimes against whites, eight times the 55,685 whites committed against blacks. Interracial rape is almost exclusively black on white — with 14,000 assaults on white women by African Americans in 2007. Not one case of a white sexual assault on a black female was found in the FBI study."
Obama also suggested that the outcome of the case could have been different if Martin were white. "If a white male teen would have been involved in this scenario," he said, "both the outcome and the aftermath might have been different." ----------------------------------- :MARIS61:
