Lets look at New York real quick. Cops shot an unarmed man 51 times. How many times does this happen? Rarely!!! Does that make it justified?, NO!! July 1st in kansas the General public can have Machine Guns and Sawed Off Shotguns. How often do people shoot eachother? About 300 homicides State wide yearly. KCMO has 100 plus homicides a year. KCKS has about 75. Wichita has about 75 too 100, a year. The current Guns hold up to about 9 to 10 bullets. A machine Gun holds about up to 24. 1 opinion with the ammunition of 4 people. 4 votes in 1 hand. With an extra clip, 4 more opinions. 8 opionions in 1 hand. How many people have to defend themselves from 8 peoples opinions at any given time? If I cannot convince 8 people with my brains and my mouth, should I be allowed to have the “Fire Power” of 8 people to get the last word in? Hell No!!!! The Governors Legislatures are wrong. I wish we had Legislatures that worked for us. We could vote for them and recieve what we, the citizens need. We could call it a Democracy. We could hold elections and have rights and freedoms. We could set boundaries that we all have knowledge of and ways to helps others follow them. A system of peer review and a place where we could feel safe and just in communicating our concerns of the breeches of these boundaries. 1 day I hope to see that “We the People” have a structure that is ours. We seem be forced to follow in the Governors Legislature. They decided that it is now Legal to discuss arguments with the “Fire Power” of 8 people in the hands of 1. The stray bullets will hit us because people argue in all neighborhoods. Babies are shot yearly with stray/miss guided bullets. 1 day we will have peace, until then Governor Sebelius and the Kansas Legislatures have chosen “PIECE”, slang for gun. Please, if you are about to argue with a gun, let me know. I will just get out of the way. I cannot dispute the argument or the way it is conducted. Legislatures in Kansas have secured this right to you by passing Legislation in effect as of July 1st 2008, please just give me the right to move out of the area of the argument. It is not my situation and I dont want to hit in your fight. Herbert West III west.herb@yahoo.com http://www.wen2k.com

Click here to read about Dr. Wright’s talking points for Trinity United Church of Christ its Web site and the Black Value System:
Dr. Wright’s talking points (3.1.7) for Trinity United Church of Christ its Web site and the Black Value System (in response to Erik Rush’s comments (2.28.07) on the Hannity and Colmes show):
• One of the biggest gaps in knowledge that causes the kind of ignorance that you hear spouted by this man [Erik Rush] and those like him, has to do with the fact that these persons are completely ignorant when it comes to the Black religious tradition. The vision statement of Trinity United Church of Christ is based upon the systematized liberation theology that started in 1969 with the publication of Dr. James Cone’s book, Black Power and Black Theology.
• Black theology is one of the many theologies in the Americas that became popular during the liberation theology movement. They include Hispanic theology, Native American theology, Asian theology and Womanist theology.
• I use the word “systematized” because Black liberation theology was in existence long before Dr. Cone’s book. It originates in the days of the Trans-Atlantic slave trade. It was systematized and published by theologians, Old Testament scholars, New Testament scholars, ethicists, church historians, and historians of religion such as Dr. James Cone, Dr. Cain Hope Felder, Dr. Gayraud Wilmore, Dr. Jacqueline Grant, Dr. Kelley Brown Douglas, Dr. Renita Weems, Dr. Katie Cannon, Dr. Dwight Hopkins, Dr. Linda Thomas, and Dr. Randall Bailey.
• These scholars, who write in various disciplines, also include seminary presidents like Dr. John Kinney and professors of Hebrew Bible, like Dr. Jerome Ross. Black liberation theology defines Africans and African Americans as subjects – not the objects which colonizers and oppressors have consistently defined “others” as.
• We [African Americans] were always seen as objects. When we started defining ourselves, it scared those who try to control others by naming them and defining them for them; Oppressors do not like “others” defining themselves.
• To have a church whose theological perspective starts from the vantage point of Black liberation theology being its center, is not to say that African or African American people are superior to any one else.
• African-centered thought, unlike Eurocentrism, does not assume superiority and look at everyone else as being inferior.
• There is more than one center from which to view the world. In the words of Dr. Janice Hale, “Difference does not mean deficience.” It is from this vantage point that Black liberation theology speaks.
• Systematized Black liberation theology is 40 years old. Scholars of African and African American religious history show that Black liberation theology, however, has been in existence for 400 years. It is found in the songs, the sermons, the testimonies and the oral literature of Africans throughout the Diaspora.

The Bible says, Cain killed Abel..

Why do you insist on misrepresenting scripture?
Please list you scripture references and explain how that they might possibly relate to each other?
=====================================
Cain Killed Abel (Genesis 4:8)
Go therefore and do likewise (Luke 10:37)
Now, if you cant figure out why these were posted — without comment — Then, I gotta feel sorry for ya!!
You pretty much make the point for yourself!!
They DONT go together… But… there are many who “cherry pick” Bible verses, and thus wrongly divide the meaning/context of the intent… You were VERY close to the point… but, you decided to flame me for posting the two references… And thats where you lost it!!
As for the length post regarding Trinity UCC, Chicago… I believe your posting speaks for itself… It is intelligent, easy to comprehend… And your lack of comment speaks volumes!!
Herb,
You continue to show your complete ignorance of weapons.
Just like you thought it took 20-40 seonds to draw a weapon from concealed carry.
Lets look at some of your absurd claims:
“July 1st in kansas the General public can have Machine Guns and Sawed Off Shotguns.”
The General public will have to go through the same federal process that most states already allow thier citizens to do.
They will have to apply for a license, pay fees, go through a couple of back ground checks, and be approved by local law enforcement.
“The current Guns hold up to about 9 to 10 bullets. A machine Gun holds about up to 24.”
What guns are you talking about? Most full size 9mm pistols can hold up to 15 rounds. Most full size .40 and .45 caliber pistols can hold around 13 rounds.
Only when you start getting into sub compact and compact pistols do you get 9 rounds or single stack full size pistols.
Most Assualt Rifles have a 30 round clip size not 24.
“should I be allowed to have the “Fire Power” of 8 people to get the last word in?”
What an absurd comment. Your entire rant is absurd. I already have enough firepower now, before this law.
So can anyone else. Just go buy any assualt rifle at Sportsmans warehouse or over at Gander Mountain. These things have been available for the past 50 years now.
We don’t see people out shooting each other in the streets over opinions.
Nothing in this legislation talks about arguments with guns being legal.
You are a complete idiot Herb and only continue to prove it when it comes to weapons.
Nathaniel: Jeez, I hope I got the right thread this time…..About Herb, the Greek origins of the word idiot(idious) refers to one who does NOT take part in public affairs or debate. Those who did were a called citizens. You better come up with another noun. BTW, I liked Econ 101 better.
Nathaniel??? If Law Enforcement can get their “Service Equipment” thru the “Kansas-Partnership Program”, why do we need Legislation? If the Feds regulate the Lisence for possession of these arms, why do we need Legislation? Basically, what was broke that needed fixxed? Why did the State need this Legislation? And, people do use guns to argue. The also use knifes and nun-chucks. They use cars and ball bats. When is Legislation going to regulate these items? A sword might be nice to use to get a point across. Nun-chucks can be very conclusive when it come to arguing, or using them to finish one. Again, what has stopped the general public from getting these things all along? Common sense, Federal Law, being removed by the Governors Legislatures who want State Tax revenue and fees for these sales and Lisences. If the Federal Guidelines are going to be followed, why does the State have to have its own? How can the State have its own if the Federal Regs are what are followed? Where can the State tell the Feds, how to regulate Federal policies? Cops have earned the right to have these items under intence policy. These gun shows are wrong. The Governor and Legislatures are attempting to allow these show sales of Guns away from policies set by and regulated by Feds. Again, those that are trained to use and posses these items have routes and proper policies. The general public doesnt even deserve the right to apply!!! I am an idiot for trying to stop the supply of guns to people for stupid uses. I am an idiot for trying to stop these guns from getting to people who cannot justify having them. Not every cop can posses these. That is weird. They go thru training and are told no. Not every cop is swat. But, Legislature is allowing the general public to become citizen swat. No training, just bribing Legislatures thru tax payments!!! How did the State set up the “Kansas-Partnership” program and sell these pieces of Equipment without State Regs all along? Legaly, just not tax savvy to Topeka. What about the premice that others states permits for conceal/carry and types of guns allowed in Kansas? Do these other States except these new KANSAS B.S. regs? i hope not. I will be looking for a safer place to live soon. Herbert West III west.herb@yahoo.com
Thanks for the clarification on the definition of “idiot”, sursum. Herbert West III west.herb@yahoo.com http://www.wen2k.com
U.S. Senator Ken Salazar has asked today that the owner of 850 KOA “reprimand” Rush Limbaugh for what Salazar calls Limbaugh’s “clear exhortation” for riots during the Democratic National Convention in Denver.
http://www.denverpost.com/breakingnews/ci_9057199
“Now, I’m not inspiring or inciting riots. I’m dreaming. I’m dreaming of riots in Denver,” he said mimicking the holiday tune.
But Salazar, in a letter sent today to Clear Channel Radio, the owner of KOA, characterized Limbaugh’s comments as “incendiary.”
“As I read Mr. Limbaugh’s comments about riots at the Democratic National Convention in Denver, they appear to me to be a clear exhortation that those riots are exactly what he wants to happen,” said Salazar. “For that kind of incendiary comment, I ask Clear Channel to reprimand Mr. Limbaugh.”
Kris Olinger, director of AM programming for Clear Channel Denver, said that Limbaugh is syndicated by Premiere Radio Network , the syndication arm of Clear Channel.
“We passed the letter along to Premiere,” said Olinger. “They obviously are going to take Senator Salazar’s comments and consider them.”
Comedian Rush Limbaugh is trotting out some funny stuff, I tell you what!
Riots to disrupt the Democratic Convention!
Wow, death, destruction and dismemberment, that guy sure knows how to crack up the CONs that listen to him.
Herb and Sursum,
I prefer to use the current meaning of the word idiot:
1. an utterly foolish or senseless person.
2. Psychology. a person of the lowest order in a former classification of mental retardation, having a mental age of less than three years old and an intelligence quotient under 25.

Nebraska abortionist quack Meryl Severson has been committing abortions at Planned Parenthood abortion mills in Council Bluffs, IA and Lincoln, NE, but not for the last 3 weeks. Pro-lifers are praying that quack Severson has decided to give up the monstrous practice.

Amazingly enough, a New York abortion mill has closed as a result of the recent 40 Days for Life campaign. The Abortion Services abortion mill in the New City, New York was one of more than 50 abortion mills across the nation demonstrated against by pro-lifers, who credit the babies’ Creator for the shutdown.
Plans are now under way for another round of concurrent 40 Days for Life campaigns this fall from September 24 through November 2.

Anthony Wayne High School pro-life students in Whitehouse, OH were initially threatened with a 2-day suspension for wearing pro-life shirts saying “Abortion is homicide” as part of their pro-life event of April 21, then increasingly threatened with more punishments, such as losing their prom, graduation ceremony, picnic, and other graduation events. This kind of mishandling of student speech makes lawyers rich and school administrators poor.

Katherin Shuffield, 30, a bank teller who was five months pregnant, was critically shot in a robbery Tuesday morning at a Marion County, IN bank. One of her twins died Thursday night, and the other died Friday morning. They were not killed by a bullet, but died because of their mother’s serious gunshot injuries.
In order for manslaughter charges to be filed in Indiana, the mother would have had to have been at least seven months pregnant.
[I do not think the mother, if she survives her injuries, will feel better knowing that the government of Indiana tells her that her dead children, killed just after viability, were not victims of manslaughter.]
Police are searching for the killer.

Rozlynn Rodgers, 19, of Chicago, IL was charged Tuesday with first-degree murder in the April 4 death of her 5-month-old daughter, Makalah. Rodgers told authorities she drowned the child because she no longer wanted to be a mother, because she couldn’t go to parties.
Rodgers also was charged with aggravated battery to a police officer during her arrest.

An abandoned newborn boy was found Friday in some bushes in Palmetto, FL covered with ants and flies. The baby was rescued by retired Bradenton Police Capt. Randy Petroskey, 52, who happened to be at the location with his son Nick, 17. After medical treatment, the boy was found to be in relatively good condition. Police are seeking the mother.
Rush said that riots would prevent the Democrats from naming a candidate, thus preventing a proper election in November… and he called it the ultimate Operation Chaos. How much “freedom” of speech does this guy get?? Riots in Denver?? Fire in a crowded theatre?? Pretty close call there!!
Exit 19 aka the Wellington/Winfield exit is the right choice for Sumner County. With only 18% of Mulvane residents residing in Sumner County they should have no say so in Sumner Countys plans.
Parkay?
Nobody reads you you know.
Why not post a link to what you are doing to help women make the choice YOU would like to force on them by legal fiat?
I would like to see you come out for SCHIP expansion and the repeal of welfare reform.
Remember. It takes a village to raise a child.
And Rush?
Ol’ frogmouth may yet get himself tossed in the pokey. If he’d made the remarks he did the day before the Democratic convention, he could be charged with inciting a riot.
I got a better idea for his inciting a riot.
He should show UP at the Democratic national convention. There WILL be a riot. A real short one.
I dream myself. Of what I’d do that fat sob with a quiet room and 5 minutes.
Careful Blue Jay — you’re flirting with a personal injury threat there… just saying…
Oh it’s not credible as a threat Chas.
Rush doesn’t move among the common folk. An encounter is not likely unless he seeks it.
And I hear he only seeks encounters with underage Dominican girls.
LOL Blue Jay!!

Chas,
It makes me wonder if you really know what you are posting or not.
If a person knows that the two verses you quoted have nothing to do with each other, why would they be posted together, with no explanation mind you, expect to expect something other than the response I gave?
I just listened to Reverend Jeremiah Wright’s sermon from April. 13, 2003 on ” Confusing God and the government” - John 11:35 and Luke passage “Jesus wept”.
I clearly do not see the connection between the time of the nation of Israel in John and Luke (whom Jesus lived in) and the nation of the USA today.
The differences are very stark.
Israel was under Roman domination.
The US is not under domination.
Is Reverend Wright attempting to draw a similarity between the Roman Empire and the USA?
Again, the differences are very stark. They do not come even close to being the same.
I appreciate his illustartion of the scripture, but I do not see this attempt at trying to connect Rome and the USA.
“BlueJay” says –
“…[Rush] only seeks encounters with underage Dominican girls.”
Girls?! You sure about that?
I love to witness the hate the DemLibs have for Rush. It’s so obvious because he has power and influence, and exposes the absurdity of the DemLibs.
And, in spite of their hate they are so pathetically impotent to counter it.
I dont recall mentioning Dr. Wright, American. Are you that intent on attempting to make him into something you can hate, instead of a great inner city Pastor deserving of Love?
Do you Remember 1987
Thought you might be interested in this forgotten bit of information………
It was 1987! At a lecture the other day they were playing an old news video of Lt.Col. Oliver North testifying at the Iran-Contra hearings during the Reagan Administration.
There was Ollie in front of God and country getting the third degree, but what he said was stunning!
He was being drilled by a senator; ‘Did you not recently spend close to $60,000 for a home security system?’
Ollie replied, ‘Yes, I did, Sir.’
The senator continued, trying to get a laugh out of the audience, ‘Isn’t that just a little excessive?’
‘No, sir,’ continued Ollie.
‘No? And why not?’ the senator asked.
‘Because the lives of my family and I were threatened, sir.’
‘Threatened? By whom?’ the senator questioned.
‘By a terrorist, sir’ Ollie answered.
‘Terrorist? What terrorist could possibly scare you that much?’
‘His name is Osama bin Laden, sir’ Ollie replied.
At this point the senator tried to repeat the name, but couldn’t pronounce it, which most people back then probably couldn’t. A couple of people laughed at the attempt. Then the senator continued. Why are you so afraid of this man?’ the senator asked.
‘Because, sir, he is the most evil person alive that I know of’, Ollie answered.
‘And what do you recommend we do about him?’ asked the senator.
‘Well, sir, if it was up to me, I would recommend that an assassin team be formed to eliminate him and his men from the face of the earth.’
The senator disagreed with this approach, and that was all that was shown of the clip.
By the way, that senator was Al Gore!
Now Mr. CO2 Genius.
Also:
Terrorist pilot Mohammad Atta blew up a bus in Israel in 1986. The Israelis captured, tried and imprisoned him. As part of the Oslo agreement with the Palestinians in 1993, Israel had to agree to release so-called ‘political prisoners.’
However, the Israelis would not release any with blood on their hands, The American President at the time, Bill Clinton, and his Secretary of State, Warren Christopher, ‘insisted’ that all prisoners be released.
Thus Mohammad Atta was freed and eventually thanked us by flying an airplane into Tower One of the World Trade Center .. This was reported by many of the American TV networks at the time that the terrorists were first identified.
It was censored in the US from all later reports.
Interesting!
“Israel was under Roman domination. The US is not under domination.”
That would depend on what type of domination — There is more than one type, as you should well know.
Interesting Boxlock! I have not heard of any of that before!
Thanks for posting.
Interesting to say the least… Of course there is a common thread in the two stories… And that common thread would be the connection of both Osama bin Laden, and President Bill Clinton (Yale - Skull and Bones) AND Then V-P George H. W. Bush (Yale - Skull and Bones)
Care to comment on that, or are you just intentionally flaming??
“Boxlock” pastes –
“Do you Remember 1987…”
I remember this being debunked dozens of times.
http://www.snopes.com/rumors/north.htm
Damn, you people can’t even think up new lies.
Sorry Regular, that came in from a friend who is normally reliable. I should have check it out but was rushed.
It was Abu Nidal, not Osama bin Laden.
Hard to keep the terrorists straight anymore.
Ah, Abu Nidal. Yeah, he was the FBI’s most wanted terrorist at one time.
“Boxlock,” caught spewing lies, whines —
“…that came in from a friend who is normally reliable. I should have check it out but was rushed.”
“…but was RUSHED?!
You’ve been on this forum for hours, “Boxlock.” What was “rushing” you?
Getting behind on posting lies to another thread?
Good catch Monkeyhawk!
Oh ladies and gentleman.
Monkeyhawk just took “Boxlock” to school!
http://www.snopes.com/rumors/north.asp
Boxlock: FALSE
That old urban legend has been shown to be a LIE.
Then there is no CONNECTION between Abu Nidal, and Mohammed Attah… the 9/11 pilot!!
And the only connection even in the debunked story, is still the connection between George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and Skull and Bones.
Chas,
What I was getting at was that Reverend Wright’s sermon is trying to place his church (Trinity UCC Chicago that has it’s main focus on African Americans) in modern day America as a direct parallel with the Jews in Israel under Roman domination.
I just do not see the connection or similarity.
The last two thirds of his sermon is political ranting and raving about “Confusing God and the government”.
Your input on this subject?
Nathaniel: Hey, I got you to look something up! You didn’t go far enough though, for Webster says “Idiota (from the Latin and French roots derived from the Greek) a private person who holds no public office or who has no public or professional knowledge” Your sad inclination to demean is evident again by your narrow choice of definitions. I enjoy these threads with all the exchanges of ideas, and you are included in that comment. But you do leave yourself wide open to easy rebuttal….as I’ve said before. ‘Nite Nate!
Libs,
Boxlock admitted his mistake and apologized.
Better than some on this blog would do. We all know who I mean by that.
Since there was no “Israel” as such during the time of Jesus, No, I dont see that connection… Jesus was lauded as “King of the Jews” — even by Pontius Pilate…
ROME was compared by early apocalyptic christians to a New Babylon —
I do not see Dr. Wright — nor anybody I know of in the UCC — as making any connection with Roman Domination, to the United States… The Dominations they would tend to see would be Greed, Classism, Corruption of Government (which Wright DOES center on a lot) — BUT — he also says frequently that JESUS frees us from such corruption — And the Resurrection lifts us above Greed, and Classism… But Roman Domination, No… I dont see that comparison!!
Listen to it again, and you will most definitely hear him ranting against Corruption in Government — any Government –
He is very forceful on that theme, because that is one of the themes of liberation theology as a whole!!
Might be back later, but if not….
Good night; Good luck;
God bless - Whatever you conceive God to be!
Blessings ALL!!
Monkeyass, no asshole, I have been eating dinner with neighbors, which by the way are considerably better company than I keep here with the likes of you, and trying to glance views from time to time as Regular was making you all look like fools.
Small mistake, a mistake I admit, but no lie, and you make it a capital offense because you have so little of any importance to offer. This really proves that.
That you and your jackals take so much delight, and attempt to make so much from something so small simply shows how shallow you are and how worthless your post are.
Heh heh
Two threads. Two meltdowns for “Regular”s nics.
Heh heh
Two threads TWO meltdowns for “Regular” and his nics.
“Regular,” running to the (impotent) defense of his fellow liar, rationalizes –
“Boxlock admitted his mistake and apologized.”
Because he “was RUSHED!”
You left out that part, “Regular.”
Simple question: What “rushed” him?
Look, I realize it’s tough for you guys. 18-19 hours a day from pre-dawn to post-midnight, lying all the time. Sometimes, on the weekend, you have to recycle old lies just to keep your hand in.
Rush rush rush, “Regular” and “Boxlock!” You’ve got lies to spread. You’re behind the curve.
Boxlock,
I commend you for your wisdom in learning from your mistakes. It would be good if everyone on this blog would do the same.
You better go listen to the video I just posted in that other thread MonkeyHock.
The Reverend Meeks, an Illinois State Senator knows what he’s talking about and it was exactly what I addressed in the topic.
Black Americans know they are being led around by the nose by the Democratic Party and are pissed off.
BlueJay,
I can retire tonight knowing I have good friends, a good job with good income, very successful children and bright grandchildren, and I have a strong faith in God and the universe he has created. Even if it contains crap like you.
Face it you have nothing from what I gather except hate, and envy and a take from others corrupt work ethic, and you will have nothing because of the vile person you are and continually prove yourself to be.
Stop and think about it loser.
Good night and sweet dreams if you every have any.
Heh
Now he can’t keep his nics OR his threads straight.
This is almost as good as SNL. Almost.
Uh huh “Boxlock”
Prove you are not “Regular”.
You had the chance. You bailed.
And like I say, SNL is better.
This is rich.
“Boxlock” raises the bar to Lincoln/Douglas Debate levels by offering –
“Monkeyass, no asshole…”
And then comes up with –
“I have been eating dinner with neighbors, which by the way are considerably better company than I keep here with the likes of you, and trying to glance views from time to time as Regular was making you all look like fools.”
Damn! You’re a regular Martha Stewart hostess, aren’t you, “Boxlock?” Running away from a dinner party to spew lies on the Internet! Talk about dedication to the cause!
I mean, how else to explain your regular posts to WE Blog all evening?
Unless, I dunno, perhaps, maybe, you’re lying about your dinner party with the neighbors, too.
“Small mistake, a mistake I admit, but no lie, and you make it a capital offense because you have so little of any importance to offer. This really proves that.”
No. What it proves is you’re either a liar or… you’re a liar.
“That you and your jackals…”
“Jackals?” “JACKALS?!
Funny you should use that term. Jackals are scavengers; they’re attracted to dead flesh.
Maybe it was your brain that attracted them.
“…take so much delight, and attempt to make so much from something so small simply shows how shallow you are and how worthless your post are.”
Guess my “post are”[sic] not worth responding to, then. Huh?

Uh huh “Boxlock”
Prove you are not “Regular”.
You had the chance. You bailed.
And like I say, SNL is better.
—————-
You bailed too Junior.
What a hypocrite and coward.
Oh, and I am not Boxlock. Period. End of Story.
Blue Jay is an incurable, spiteful, hypocritical moron.
“their soulless ventures will lead them straight to the destiny of the unrepentant.”
That’s from “Regular” on another thread just a few minutes ago.
Sorta fits with the “jackals” rant.
And SNL is a rerun.
Thanks Regular & American,
Goodnight, I’ve got to be out’a here early tomorrow, church at 8:00.
Regular you seriously have shown Monkeyass and Rage, BlueJay, et al. to be the the hypocrites they are, and how seriously deficient their views.
They are the racists and try to camouflage that with the accusation that conservatives are, and shackling false promises to those that have a hard enough time as it is.
They know their value, as do we, and they hate as a result.
“Oh, and I am not Boxlock. Period. End of Story.”
Uh huh.
I’m sure “American” will be along to back that one up any second now.
Or maybe “Pat Herron”
Or “Kansas”
Or Republican, Republikhan, Eier, JM, etc. etc. ad nauseum.
He’s got a million of ‘em folks.
Great day today, got the grilling (McCluer is a liar) done just before the storm (what about ‘Nam, McCluer?) hit - Western Cut (McCluer is a cuckold husband) Ribs, (why so many nics, McCluer?) Cajun style jalapeño (why deny being J M?) wraps, corn on (why did you chicken out, McCluer?) the cob, Dirty Rice w/ Cajun sausage, Mississippi (been to MS, McCluer?)Mud Pie and lots of cold beer.
Troy Newman never answers why he wants to force women like the one who left her baby to be covered by ants and the one who killed her baby because she couldn’t party anymore…why he’d want those women to be forced to give birth in the first place.
Because he wants these women to go to jail for being pregnant in the first place.
The hussies deserve to suffer one way or another huh Newman?
PMama — they havent programmed his Bot to answer yet… just programmed to hit and run post!!
McCluer, did you become a hateful, bitter old man after you found out that your wife was running around with a younger man or have you always been this way?
That is, if your story about your wife leaving you for a younger man is true - or should we believe that you are a 56 year old virgin that has never been married?
Which is it, McCluer?
Psssstt Clark!! Dont distract him… he is too absorbed t being the Blog Racist on another thread… Something about how Obama had to move to Chicago to learn how to be Black?? I know… Racism has started to run rampant on the WE Blog lately!! Must be election time…
Maybe the guy that McCluer’s wife ran off with was African-American - maybe?
That would explain a lot……
I’ve a friend who used to post here alot.
Real savvy with computers. An expert.
He isn’t poting lately. Tired of the nastiness.
But he did tell me that registration is real easy to get around.
This would explain this evening and how “Regular” always seems to get backup just when he really needs it.
Focus on the consistencies and the inconsistencies you guys. We will bust the super troll. Just don’t play his game. Make him play yours. That’s when he goes for “backup”.
If Registration is so easy to get around, perhaps somebody should notify the Editors of that?? There might be a fix for it…
Come on Chas.
Do you imagine they WANT posts to go down?
Especially now that they use us for ads?
The new format does little to address the problems. It just drives posts.
We are still left to do whatever policing we can to ourselves.
Not very much we can do, Blue Jay… Except keep on trying… I have thought maybe of posting some of the more blatantly racist and sexist posts in a Letter to the Editor… But then the Bozos would have my real name. And I dont want that…
Chas-”But then the Bozos would have my real name. And I dont want that…”
and neither does “Squarepeg”
Ummm I thought I saw where SqurePeg already posted his real name… You must have missed that one TROLL ANTI
“Real savvy with computers. An expert.”
My son could hack any computer system in the world - we all can play that game - I just want McCluer to ‘fess up to his lies and deceit - just calling him on his game.
i MUSt hAve Rev….cHAS
ROFLMAO, LOL, ect.
Just do what you’ve BEEN doing Chas.
You draw a lot of fire. And you are a good guy and don’t deserve what you get back here.
A word of advice. Don’t play their game. You do that way too much. Make them play yours.
They have no game. They are scared and irrational.
Stick and move. Move and stick. Do that and while they stay the same place you are all around them.
Well, now its time to shut down for the nite… Getting tired of typing with just my good hand, so these “kind, loving, bloggers” wont poke fun at my poor ability to use my left hand properly… Such fine upstanding citizens that they are…
Good night; Good luck;
God Bless - Whatever you conceive God to be!!
Blessings ALL!!
Chas,
We don’t make fun of you because of your stroke.
We make fun of you because you seem to have no problem typing in caps when you need to, yet any time someone says it is rather annoying you cop out and say you can’t help it.
There is a preview option now. And unless you are blind you can see what is being typed as you type.
We make fun of you because you use it as an excuse when if you took even the slightest amount of time or effort you could post things without the annoying caps.
BJ expresses his Nija skills of ignorance-
“They have no game. They are scared and irrational.Stick and move. Move and stick. Do that and while they stay the same place you are all around them.”
Look out man…Waahh Chaaaah!!!!
“ANTI” is another of “Regular”s nics.
And that one was created just for me as “ANTI J R”
Treat it accordingly.
Good night.
“BJ”, always a good time…..
seriously, you are one sick demented individual. You are the “stereotypical democrat”, the poster child of what is wrong with YOUR party…
keep posting, it helps us!!
Nathan, if you are still around, is there a resource for responsible dog breeders in the area…specifically wired haired pointers or english pointers?
See how this fish is played?
I put out a hook and he grabbed it.
He can run and run all night. Me I’m going to sleep.
Also BJ the the nonworking link in your title-”shackling them to an entitlement mentality” is very telling of you.
Me, I am laughing at BlueJay.
So, Nathaniel, what do you think of McCluer’s multiple personalities, contradictory lies and falsehoods?
Is it okay with you that he claims to be a ‘Nam vet one day and “too young” for ‘Nam the next?
Is it okay with you that he claims that his wife ran off with his son one day and claims to have never been married the next?
Is it okay with you that he denies being J M one day and then confesses the next?
Are you okay with supporting serial liars, Price, or do you hold McCluer to the same standards that you hold everyone else to?
What is it Price - are you okay with McCluers lies?
Bye the way “BlueJay”, you do know that the blue jay is a violent selfish bird that torments other birds in order to steal their food and nest…they steal from the other birds efforts, their hard labor, their sacrifices….very telling as you would say, very telling.
ANTI,

Morning,
Whoa….Very Good ANTI, excellent, tack-on accurate observation that applies perfectly.
Very, very good observation! Your perception for truth is awesome.
……………it figures that boxtop would dog-pile onto an asinine comment another reichwinger makes about a member of the Democratic Party.
Apophis,
I made a mistake by simply pasting an email from a retired partner of my company into the blog. A man usually quite reliable and accurate, one I greatly respect in spite of his mistake. But this time I found out his email was not accurate, and I very quickly said so. My mistake was rushing to post because of the hour and other interests going on at the time.
A mistake…YES, a grave sin, of course not, ridiculous to even suggest. A very common embarrassment, but then you and your friends ARE ridiculous, as you prove over and over, and are now.
Like the Gordan Lightfoot sings in his very perceptive folk song “The House You Live In”, he states, “Be calm in the face of all common disgraces and know what they’re doing it for”. That is very telling in this case as well, for all to perceive. What,(?)…are they doing it for, and why?
They, including you, are doing it doing it because you are small, petty, cowardly little people, to be pitied.
My admission came very quickly, but like a pack of jackals, the scavengers that you, BlueJay, and Monkeyhawk are, you take it and go into a frenzy, all you can then do is continue on and on about a minor mistake. Remember you will now be held to a like standard, but I imagine with your lack of character, along with your fellow scavengers, you will continue to feed to the point of gluttony revealing the true shallowness of your character.
Keep it up….I will be enjoying the spectacle.
