Your response proved it.
I'm not a liberal. I'm an independent mind.
Then why have a moniker that calls yourself a liberal? You make me laugh.
Let's assume that I actually held the positions you accuse me of holding and had to defend them.
Why defend them if you don't hold them? That's silly...unless you're lying. Or is it that you're such a super intellect that you can defend any position regarding any subject? You make me laugh...again.
Specifically, what's wrong with taking TVs and other electronics? Uhhhh, because it's illegal?! Most of that stuff will have to be written off anyway. Uhhhh, it's still illegal. Or do you think owners will be able to sell it as new given that it's been unattended in a muggy flood zone for weeks or months. That's like saying, "Your honor, it was OK to kill that guy cuz nobody liked him anyway." See what I mean about a lack of common sense and logic? (pssst...I know. It doesn't compute, does it? That's the elitism in you)
Here's a novel approach: How about instead of looting, these individuals help rescue their fellow citizens? These thugs were already there. They could have done something helpful and constructive--like saving lives--in an otherwise terrible situation. Instead they chose to compound the problem. ...the poor who are stranded in that area can sell it for a few bucks and live. Sell it to whom? Other poor people?! You make me laugh...a lot.
I can't make any sense of your argument about blacks in prison so I can't respond to it.
It's called "moving the goalposts." It what you liberals independent minds do. Go back and reread it. If you still don't understand it then you should be able to appreciate how we feel. We have to deal with that nonsense from you guys on a daily basis.
They know it's illegal but not necessarily immoral. Many of them think their actions can be justified and that the legal system itself is immoral.
So it's acceptable to break the law if you can justify your actions or...oh, screw it. This is so absurd it doesn't warrant any response. Just keep this BS in mind if or when someone perpetrates a crime against you. "They did it cuz they decided it was right and the system isn't fair." You make me laugh...out loud.
If everyone thought like you we'd still be British citizens. But you, no doubt, think that's irrelevant too...and that black criminals in New Orleans are not in any way like those who founded the Republic.
God, where do I start? This is even more absurd than your previous gibberish. Are you saying the founding fathers were no different than the thugs and looters in New Orleans? The fact that you can even draw such a comparison is nuts. BTW, as for still being British citizens, it appears you're saying America in its' present form is no different from the oppressive, tyrannical British monarchy that ruled with an iron hand and "black criminals in New Orleans" are actually freedom fighters against that oppression and tyranny. My friend, you are not only wrong. You're friggin' warped. What kind of country are you advocating we live in? Methinks Teddy Roosevelt would be rolling in his grave knowing someone with thought like that actually believes they have something in common with him. You make me laugh...but with a great deal of concern and anxiety.
I know I'm an elitist. I'm not apologetic about it.
See? You don't get it. You can't be apologetic about it. You're an elitist. The concept is foreign to you.
And "likening" them to dogs is not at all the same thing as calling them monkeys or subhuman.
See? That's my point. You call them dogs and it's ok. I call dogs and I'd be a racist. That's how you liberals operate. You make the rules but you don't abide by them. Yet you and your ilk insist everyone else must. Elitism once again.
Look, apparently you believe black criminality is justified in its' existence if blacks say it is. OK. I don't agree. And most people wouldn't either. But then most people aren't elitist liberals. Thankfully.
Of course, this could all be moot because as you said this is assuming you "actually held the positions you accuse me of holding and had to defend them". I'm hopeful you don't hold these positions because not only have made woeful attepts at defending them--and rightfully so since they are indefensible--it's scary to think liberals would not find them problematic to begin with.
You still make me laugh...but cautiously.
ok
