"I see that the American conservative is showing his true face in this forum - death threats, advocating mob justice, hatred of the media (which is antithetical to what the founding fathers felt, such as Thomas Jefferson), and the whole wingnut ball of wax. The new right traitors in America have destroyed the America of the founding fathers and built their own Taliban style of government"
will earn you a quick trip to Zotsville. May I suggest you stick to debating facts and issues, and avoid stereotyping and this sort of hyperventilating rhetoric.
Well, malakhi, you were obviously quite correct. tsr_dog got his posting rights revoked. I only came here to say one thing, as I'm personally not much into arguments. Because I know tsr_dog.
Firstly, tsr (for short) is American, completely, with ancestry back to the revolutionary war. In fact, members of his family have fought in every major US conflict in its history, including Vietnam and all wars previously to the revolutionary war.
Secondly, believe me, tsr was fully aware of hyperventilating rhetoric, as you put it, that was was engaged in. No disputes there. He felt that the forum was rife with it and decided to dish some of his own out in return, knowing full well the likely consequences. The things you refer to in your quotation - death threats, mob justice, media hatred - are all things that this particular forum subject is filled with. (Yes, I read the entire thread and had actually caught most of tsr's posts before they were deleted. I had intended to be a silent observer, really.)
I assure you that he is very well aware that there are differences in opinion among conservatives. Knowing him as I do, believe me, he does not live on stereotypes in reality. And his reference in the section you quoted was not, I don't believe, aimed at conservatives as a grouping, but only the more extreme elements who support the philosophies and goals of neocons.
Anyway, he wishes you all well and holds no hard feelings about it. This isn't the sort of forum he would have been likely to be a regular contributor to anyway.
I must say he takes such cavalier treatment better than I would have, for which of course no one can blame the posters. All I can say is - free republic?
I wish you all well also. Good luck and as a fellow American, I hope we as a nation can mend our fences and close the gaps produced by polarization. It will take time.
