So many conversations just gated up like we are Cattle and just livestock.

I saw that happen. The OP realized that there was already a thread to the same topic of interest. But still there were conversations and sentiments being also shared in this second post too and it is rude to just shut it off like that. Doesn't anyone know how to just "forward" any new comments to the older thread? It is not rocket science and only take minimal effort... I can teach you how... That way those conversations are not lost to the wind...

Does anyone care about the members here and have customer appreciation? Or is the arrogance so great that we should feel lucky you even allow us to participate here? If it is the later you are wrong and that is a mistaken perspective. That arrogance will be the downfall of this domain in the end.

Girl, I am out of your personal beef with bikkuri. That is all. Quit overgeneralizing.

You really ARE off your rocker...

And, if you weren’t zotted, I would definitely ask you to show me 1 post of mine that broke any rules.
You can’t.

Ah heck. I don't have a problem with disagreeing with people as long as they don't come at me and insult me for disagreeing with them. Openurmind doesn't operate that way with me, and I can disagree with people like that.

Sometimes I will post something and someone will attack me. "That's the stupidest thing I have ever heard" or worse. We have a person on this forum who is obviously very bright, and I posted something one day and this person responded "The level of stupidity and ignorance in your post is appalling..." (or something like that) and so on. It pissed me off. This person would be a great intellectual resource, but instead, comes at people in that fashion. Simply being a jerk. I don't excuse people with the "He's smart, but has no people skills..."

Screw that. If someone doesn't have any people skills, there is no room for them on a forum like this.

That gets my hackles up and I often just lash out back. I am trying not to do that.

You said:

"...The hammer slamming on minor transgressions by long-termers like myself combined with allowing communist and TDS trolls to run amok has created a hostile environment for conservatives trying to comprehend and deal with the ramped-up forces of evil that threatens us all.

The static is purposeful and meant to divide us when we should be finding common ground at this time when the Democrat Party is vulnerable - divided between old schoolers and new communists, socialists and Islamists vying to hold out against the other like vultures hovering over the American eagle as it breathes it’s last.

We have to stand back up, snap their collective necks in our beak and show this old bird is not done by a long shot...."

I could not have said that better myself.

Thank you for the ping...
I was done with the thread because I didn’t want to trigger him more than he already was, and would have missed it.
Very unstable.

Agreed 100%.
Honestly, should have happened back in 2022.

We truly have more in common than not, loving America and it's principles, and should recognize the saying "In the end it's ALL small sh!t" to be true of our instinctual responses and jabs not well thought through. Only human yet God gave us this country and time in history where nearly every one of us enjoy a higher standard of living than any king of bygone past.

Now it's up to us to preserve it or cowardly turn tail and make all the hopes and sacrifices of our ancestors a sorry final epitaph. I know my Scottish McTaggart's would nae abide my company in the hereafter if I oathed to tyrants and not taken heads that were honor due.

Figuratively; but if our enemies submit their necks who am I to deny a trim when the Muslims consider being slayed a martyrdom when they're so anxious to behead us?

As the movie says - "There can be only one." To me that means God Almighty and not Satan posing as a god under a false name, deluding legions to commit violence fueled by envy. Am I wrong to believe we're being too tolerant?

"You will never find me on any Ukraine/Russia threads."


I avoid those threads also. The only thing that irks me about that subject, is that it is none of our concern, except when we are wasting OUR resources and money on something that is an EU problem.

Seems that no matter how many times he shot himself in the foot, he did it again.. and again, and again.
Until finally, I guess he bled out.
