Kick-Ass Conservatism

I haven't heard any of the usual wacko law and order types suggesting punishments for Rush "Excellence in OxyContin-Influenced Broadcasting" Limbaugh. Many of you want to execute drug users. I guess you make exceptions for "conservatives".

[cubreporter]

Rush was not a "drug user" as you put it. He was on prescription pain medicines like a lot of other people. He was not taking drugs for the fun of it.

[WackyKat]

Really? Apparently you missed his on air statement that he did in fact use the drugs at times for recreational purposes.

Your next excuse for Rush?

[StockAyatollah]

Thanks for illustrating my point. Many cancer patients also claim they want to use pot to ease their pain. But law and order conservatives would jail them. Yet these same people bend over backwards to make excuses for Rush's illegal drug usage.

[squidly]

This straw man is so big I don't know where to begin.

[Jack Wilson]

When he starts physically attacking cops, then you'll have a point.

[WackyKat]

But he left out one more group of people cheering the beating on – the so-called "law and order" conservatives who think it's necessary for authorities to beat people occasionally because it's either good for them or because some people just need a good beating.

That sure describes some of the Jack Boot Lovers around here

Well that would indicate one of two things, either you can't read or you didn't spend much time on the Rush threads. Many of you want to execute drug users. I guess you make exceptions for "conservatives".

Now as for the hype with the enlarged head who tried to decapitate the cop, what would be your solution to such an attack on your body? Just how does one go about securing a drug crazed rhino in the politically correct way?

Why don't you supply one name of one poster who advocates executing drug users?

Now as for the hype with the enlarged heart who tried to decapitate the cop, what would be your solution to such an attack on your body? Just how does one go about securing a drug crazed rhino in the politically correct way?

Thanks for the peek into ideologue dementia.

Major LOL !

It always amazes me when ne'er-do-wells attack cops (usually the local drug dealer, and usually black) and the whole town turns out complaining. Maybe they just don't want the price of their dope to rise?

This is somewhat akin to disliking guns but loving bullets. Eventually the love of one yields to toleration of the other. It's hard to celebrate beatings, killings, hangings, and all-round bloodshed, while maintaining an appreciation of liberty in the abstract.

Ummm, complete horse-hockey.

This is the same kind of spurious universalization in which the left engages.

The fact of the matter is that adults have to make decisions about how to apply force, and to claim that the police in the Cincinnati case or the US armed forces in Iraq are symptomatic of a "police state" is a gross exagerration only someone with an irrepressible adolescent urge to "stick it" to authority can applaud.

Another example of the libertarian loon in its late fall migration.

If you want to see a "police state" in action, and examples of acts of questionable constitutionality that affect far more ordinary Americans every day than these, take a look at traffic court, domestic violence court (the one with the penis is always guilty), the zoning board at work every day (organized political extortion), the AW ban, the "Brady" bill, etc., etc.

I don't know of any elected Republicans who are calling for the execution of drug users.

JBTs are feds, as far as I am concerned, not local police.  Rodney King
and the cranked up deceased from Ohio get no sympathy from me whatever.

I lived in Rialto, which is part of the author's Inland Empire, around the same
time he did.  For my troubles, I sport a scar from the bullet wound.  The police
advised me to move out of the area as they could not cope with the flood of
crime as the ethnicity was growing more and more pronounced.

As for Boeing or Lockheed not being private companies, that isn't only ignorant.  That's an agenda peeking through.

[AppauledAtAppeasementConservat]

I think most conservatives advocate the execution of violent offenders like the violent drug pushers. Uh frankly I don't know of many conservatives who believe that non-violent addicts should get executed. That's about like me saying that you soft hearted folk want to see clemency for all violent criminals and non-conservative talk show hosts.

Proof that this is an exagerated misrepresentation of conservative views is the fact that liberals are still here. Being a sore looser and a whimp is something of a spectacle to behold. I rather enjoy watching spectacles of ignorance dance around for the shear entertainment. It's the violent people we like to kick the crap out of and you are thanking me and every other kick ass conservative here every time you open your mouths with the freedom to speak nonsense. To that I say: You're welcome!

[ServesURight]

Big difference between being hooked on legal prescription pain killers and using illegal drugs for kicks.

No wonder the Losertarian Party isn't going anywhere.

[CyberCowboy777]

or as teachers.

If he is going to talk about a group he had better get the group makeup correct.

[AppauledAtAppeasementConservat]

Yeah all those hordes of kick ass conservative teachers roaming around looking to kick some poor minority's arse for using drugs and profanity in school. ROTFLMAO@Liberal math!

[CyberCowboy777]

Cops who beat people likened to American Foreign Policy?

This guy took a good point about Liberty and sh!t all over it. Taking extremes and propping them up as the norm.

[CyberCowboy777]

Who the hell are these so-called "law and order" conservatives who think it's necessary for authorities to beat people occasionally because it's either good for them or because some people just need a good beating people?

This guy is off his rocker or his meds, I don't know which, but paranoia rules his life.
