"I find the fact that much of the brigade has been barred from FR to be very revealing."

I am "accused" of associations that don't exist - except maybe in the paranoid minds of your cabal. (The "Wlat Brigade" is an invention of your tortured ego.) I agree or disagree with posters based on the content of their posts. I was supposed to have "lavish conversations" with them. Odd that I don;t remember any such thing. With few exceptions, I know none of them personally or correspond with them. Watching your cabal for several years only reinforces that I wouldn't want to know you personally. We may agree on some points, and disagree on others, but I avoid associating with those whose espouse an inherently racist position.

With regard to posting quotations from Hitler on FR, or smearing posters with nazi innuendo, would you like to put the question directly to Jim Robinson? He is our host, afterall, and personally yanked the thread that you guys turned into a flame war.

I'll wait for your reply.

What?! I'm not part of the "Wlat Brigade" anymore? I am truly hurt. You should at least ping others you attempt to smear.

Check out 255. He actually seems astounded to discover that there are a bunch of law articles out there that denote awareness of the presence of obiter dictum in the Bollman ruling!

Of course, in the capitan_refugio/non-sequitur school of law, all it takes to find obiter dictum is to do a google search for a case name and the word "dicta." If it pulls up a hit then you get free license to go through the case and slap the obiter dictum label on any passage of it that you don't like.

While I was at the hotel to-day an elderly gentleman called upon me to know whether I was really in favor of producing a perfect equality between the negroes and white people. [Great laughter.] While I had not proposed to myself on this occasion to say much on that subject, yet as the question was asked me I thought I would occupy perhaps five minutes in saying something in regard to it. I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races, [applause]---that I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will for ever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race.

-- Abraham Lincoln, Charleston, Illinois, on Saturday, September 18, 1858

An accurate quote of Hitler or anyone else is acceptable. What is unacceptable is espousing or praising the doctrine therein, such as was done by the most recently banned brigade member. He was not smeared, he was quoting and espousing neo-nazi doctrine. The other thread where he was posting the same neo-nazi doctrine was also pulled in its entirety and none of us was on that thread at all. That clearly narrows down the reason the two threads were pulled.
