Sunday morning I woke and went to Micky Ds to get my husband a big breakfast and some other kind of breakfast food (I bought myself a large coffee).
As I waited in line behind 100,000,000 other people I looked to my left and saw three boys; Id say they couldnt have been older than 16 years old. Description of said white punks listed below:
Boy 1: Frizzed out hair, John Lennon glasses and a jacket that was infested with pins and patches. One of those patches read: Anti-Flag. (this set me off)
Boy 2: Blue hair, chubby and he had a top hat on.
Boy 3: Lets just say my cat craps bigger stool than this little twerp.
So as I was waiting in line I asked Boy 1; Whats up with that patch, Anti-Flag?
He said; Its a band.
I said Are you anti-American?
The punk said; Yes
I said Why?
To which he said: Vietnam, WWI and WWII did us no good. America kills the innocent.
At this point my blood is boiling and Im ready to punch this punk in the face and my food order is soon to be picked up.
I said; I dont give a shit what you think. When you get a job; and start paying taxes and contribute something to society your opinion doesnt mean shit. So take your 60s peace mentality and shove it up your ass. If you three represent the future of America, it scares me, it scares me very much. You want to want to be anti-American, go tell your b.s. to a United States veteran who fought for the very freedom you have. ( .I wanted to go on but I had to pick up my order and leave. I got a nod from some guy waiting in line in agreement with my confrontation with this kid.)
At that point I picked up my order, they left and I made my exit.
Is this the future of America? Anti-Flag?
So take your 60's attitude and shove it.
The guy in line who nodded at me couldn't hear me but had a good idea of what the talk was about.
"...punch me out..." go ahead it's not the first time.
(for the record bozo, I said nothing about peace at all costs)
I said, the only morally legitimate use of force, is in defense.
DEFENSE.
This is what masquerades as reasoned discourse here now-a-days. Sad as hell.
There's bad in every bunch, even non-believers. No sense in making connections which do not exist.
I know, but;
"20% of America are conservatives, 20% are liberals, and 60% are morons.." Ann Coulter (and I agree with her)
And of the 20% conservatives many are RINOS(ex-democrats mostly). I would'nt call a RINO a conservative, she does.
Seems to me, OWK, you lumped us all in to one group.
So she obviously doesn't concider the liberals to be morons. Or conservatives for that matter.
She says anyone who isn't a liberal or a conservative is a moron. What percentile does she put herself into?
Her whole proposition seem moronic to me, but then, what do I know, I'm in the sixty percent who isn't one or the other.
You were baiting attacks, and you got it.
I stated my objection.
I didn't lump anyone into anything.
If the criticism doesn't apply to you, all the better.
Don't apply it.
Could you please point to some of my "communist party USA crap"?
My objection to you and your unthinking ilk, is your similarity to socialists and communists.
My philosophy is in diametric opposition to it.
You may now continue your spittle-frothed nonsense.
/sarcasm
Where she gets her numbers is anyone's guess if that is indeed her point. Just because many people see no reason to be involved in a process which will result in things which they do not want, no matter who the vote for, doesn't mean they don't care about politics.
There are many people voting for democrats politicians of all stripes, including Republicans, that have no idea that dems politicians will raise your taxes, and grow the government with they're socialized medicine and such.
There, I edited that for you for accuracy.
The scariest are the ones who know what the dems are up to (socializing America) and still vote for them.
The scariest from my perspective are those who actually believe that Republicans are interested in changing things for the better.
Seems to me that there are many on this forum who want to sit out and wait until that 'perfect' leader comes along. Unfortunately, we are all individuals and therefore we will never agree 100% on what the changes are that need to be made. We are also human, so there will never be a 'perfect' leader. In fact, those who stand behind someone because they believe him/her to be perfect are those that help to create the monsters that have murdered millions on this earth.
(Not speaking of you specifically, just responding to your comment justifying complacency.)
