    So blazing giants, what do you do when someone makes an error and apologizes?

    What do you do when you make an error?

    Or am I wrong in the main text? Is someone raising money to buy these suspects guns? Is Rush Limbaugh praising them?

    I myself do think it is ridiculous when people point out a small part of someones point that is a mistype (or mistake) and think that automatically invalidates the persons whole (larger) point.

    This actually doesn't specifically (or only?) relate to this thread. I just mean it in general.

    I thought it was for laughing at people not with them.

    This is a completely different story line. You have three kids that were caught right away and admitted they did it because they were bored and nobody denying anything, versus a situation where you had a fight that ended in death that was being sorted out and investigated. But I didn't make any comments on this. I didn't make any comments about the posters.....

    .....except for the one that ranted and raved without really reading the article and paid no attention to the poster. All I said was I found it ironic. I find it humorous when people put someone on blast, say something when they haven't read the article, and put something like "every look a fact in the face." I'm sorry, but the irony made me laugh. Again, I thought the LOL emoticon made it clear I was being light-hearted.

    Sorry your lack of reading and paying attention caused you to turn this around on me.

    Because all evidence indicated he acted in self-defense. A jury of 7 women agreed.

    Because they confessed to murder.

    If crandc can't laugh at that irony, she should really learn to lighten up. I do try to laugh with people, rather than at them. I think it's better than laughing at people.

    I see people called out for similar things, the difference being we laugh about it. I guess we don't laugh about it this time is because of the heavy blasting she improperly gave PapaG?

    She made a mistake, corrected it and then apologized for it. I thought the rest of her post was fine. I'm not understanding how wrongly attributing a post to someone is putting them on blast?

    You really are pathetic if you think that pic is the same as spanking bare asses in public, taking a close-up view of someone else's brown eye in public, tying people up in public and shoving fingers up other people's asses in public.

    I'm sorry that all those things the haters said to you permanently screwed you up so badly.

    Go Blazers

    LOL. I wasn't even blasted her. I was laughing. But now I'm being put on blast?

    It's not even like she made a little mistake. She made a pretty big one, overall, IMO. She went on a lame rant about an article she clearly didn't read. And put a poster on blast that hadn't even posted in the thread.

    So I found it ironic. I laughed. I laughed a little bit hard and maybe shed a tear. I thought it was funny. Sorry you guys don't see the same humor. But I hardly put her on "blast". Saying I put her on blast makes me laugh even more.

    I didn't say you blasted her and I wasn't putting you on blast. You said in the post that I replied to that Crandc put Papa G on blast.

    Did you read her original post on the matter? The way it started ("I'm sick of PapaG......"), followed by the text and tone.

    Yes I did. But I still didn't accuse you of putting Crandc on blast and I wasn't blasting you.

    Cool. I wasn't directly referring to you, though. I was referring in general to all of the posts that were questioning my "irony" post.

    What's cool about the pelts he hunted? Those were all coughed up by the eagle in little pellets, and dude put them back together properly.

    She's even not nude. And the outrage over the fair is about public bondage, humiliation and penetration, which is absolutely disgusting behavior.

    Do you agree that there is a huge difference between seeing boobs and seeing a person's finger up another person's ass?

    Firstly, there are way too many white dudes saying "put on blast" in this thread.

    Secondly, why a lesbian would take offense to half naked chicks is beyond me.

    Calling someone out in a "guns" and "shooting" thread equals "blast". Duh.
