Am I to Understand?

Free Republic and Liberty Post.org

To all:

I would hope your appearances and posting on these pages states your desire to undo years of liberal policies in this land I hope we all dearly love. I would hope that a hundred successful LibertyPost.org and FreeRepublics would advance the cause we all hold near and dear.

From what I have read here it seems many are more interested in fighting each other than they are in advancing the cause of individual liberty and limited constitution government as envisioned by our forefathers.

If my second paragraph is the truth, shame on you.

Let us stop the petty bickering about crap that doesn't amount to a hill of blue beans and get on with the job at hand.

I see your petty, name calling provocations all the time, as does everyone else. Unfortunately, you think your s*it doesn't stink. Well it does. Grow up. Anybody else you want to give a busybody tattletale ping to?

Ditto with addendum, Ask for lots of examples of your offenses as if you care, which you don't! Every day is a new day with ALS, apparently. Your belligerence and hypocrisy are indefensible but there's no point in asking you to knock it off, because you like bullying in packs!

Stalk? Didn't you post a message to me, and I replied? I wouldn't have replied had you only flagged me to this, but I expect you were wanting me to read your comment.

Gee, you always make sense, don't you?

LOL! And "Class"? I guess some define "class" by material things. I define it by character, in particular, honesty. To each their own, I guess.

No, I wouldn't say I always make sense...I just always inform people when I'm referring to their offensive behavior...Always...get it? Is there a difference between your behavior and mine???

Some people have told lies for so long, their consciences have become seared and they are unable to perceive, speak or discern the truth, accepting lies and falsehood as truth.

sleavelessinseattle: Just out of curiosity....your post is #401 and dated 8/16/02. The post directly before YOUR post, #400, is dated 7/31/02.

Why in the world would you wait 16 days to post?

Do you just go out of your way to RE-START a conflict?

BTW........the only way I saw this was because YOUR post, #401, bumped the thread to the top of the General Interest 'threads'.

*****No, I wouldn't say I always make sense...I just always inform people when I'm referring to their offensive behavior...Always...get it?*****

Then WHY in the world would you accuse RBA of stalking you.........when YOU 'pinged' him????

You ARE looking for a fight...amazing. Well, I sincerely hope all ignore you.

I consider the source and the like.

Oh you mean me? Exactly how is it that you figure the "source" is defective? Never mind, an explanation is not necessary.

I've had a really good day today, at a fun event, where I saw all kinds of different people having fun and sharing fun. I'm not in the mood to get in a spitting contest with anyone tonight.

Since this thread was dead, I would have ignored this fight. However, you implied my integrity is in question, and I need to address that.

I'll just say that anyone can go to my home page and look up all my posts on this forum, or any other forum, and judge me by my comments. It will be very rare that you'll find me insulting or goading anyone. I may disagree but normally I avoid excessive flaming or participation in flame threads. I admit, I have blown off steam a time or two about the "wolf pack".

You really know nothing about me to justify saying "consider the source", other than I have countered your flames a time or two (or three).

I've been here at FR long time. I saw you tell someone last night to hover the pointer over a name to see the count which indicates when a poster signed up. You can do that with mine too.

Occasionally, I see certain people repeatedly showing complete disrespect for others and I pop in with a defensive remark, such as the earlier one on this thread.

On the other hand, anyone interested in investigating this fairly worthless matter, can also compare the history of your remarks. I usually just ignore you and let you play... but sometimes, you are so rude and disrespectful to anyone whom your group has decided to blacklist, that I speak up.

With the exception of DU disruptors, most everyone at FR is here to share an interest in opposing the advancement of liberalism. In my book, that means everyone to the right of democrats are in some degree working towards the same goals. We won't always agree and tempers will flare, but we shouldn't attempt to drive people away just because we are not in complete agreement with their opinions, should we?

Yeah, we all need to get thicker skins, but we also need to stop and think before we post a reply, if this is something you would say to a person face to face.

TF & LG - I'm not calling you here to escalate the fight, but you were mentioned earlier and I want to mention the radio show so - this is a courtesy ping.

Tex, I heard you and Luis on the radio last night and you both sounded a lot nicer than you often do on the threads. Not that you have to be excessively mannerly on the threads, mind you, but you know, people would be a lot more willing to consider your viewpoint when you're not condescending to them or insulting them. It may not matter to you what I or anyone else thinks, I don't know.

Long winded post... a sermon... I know. I'm just about done. But my status as a freeper is every bit equal to yours so please don't imply that it's not again.

I'll close with one of my favorite things to do - a couple of quotes! Cheers!

Am I self-righteous? Why not? It's not like I can count on you to be righteous for me.
Henry Rollins

The truth will set you free, but first it will piss you off.

Then leave me off your damned ping list or you will get what you claim you do not want. Understood?

I always wind up explaining things to you but its okay...The porsche remark in RBA's reply to me was a reference to a friend of mine as in..."We know you have a friend" "Maybe we'll harass them, too"(either that or he has NO business accusing me of not making sense!LOL|:-D The fact is I have quite a number of friends, but I don't choose to bring them in on flame wars because its embarassing for all including me and a waste of time...RBA and others named above like to have an audience...its just not my style...The reason why I ditto'ed KCpopps was because I feel my experience was very similar to what Their's was, and I'm tired of it.

I also think its a terrible slur on FR, to behave like that against our own people, and as someone who sees this forum as a great platform to launch substantive change to the USA, I have to step up and say something about this swarming behavior. Just because I'm not affected by it doesn't mean that others don't leave or swallow retorts out of being intimidated...You know about being intimidated right? That's when people threaten you??? That's not allowed on this forum...right?

RBA..........not bumped to the top of the 'sidebar'...at the time I brought up 'messages'...it just happened to be in the top position. It was simply a coinky dink, I think.
