Guest Cancer Marney Report post Posted July 2, 2003 (edited) July 5th. Until then, it won't kill anyone to show some respect and some dignity. In the meantime, if you want to be angry about something, try to remember where you were when the world stopped turning. Unite.

Guest JMA Report post Posted July 2, 2003 I suppose a lot of people are angry with that Alan Jackson guy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest hardyz1 Report post Posted July 2, 2003 That reminds me of the episode of South Park where they made fun of Alan Jackson. The chorus of his song was "Nine eleven, nine eleven, nine eleven, nine eleven", and people were crying and throwing money at him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Tyler McClelland Report post Posted July 2, 2003 What purpose does suspending the very principles of our country -- that is, open debate and contructive criticism -- prove? How does giving the president a three day reprieve (while he shamelessly tours around the country fundraising) honor the victims of 9/11? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Cancer Marney Report post Posted July 2, 2003 Oh, I'm so fucking sorry. I didn't realise that unfavourably comparing the PRESIDENT to a COMEDIAN ("it will make him look even stupider by comparison") was "constructive criticism." As for why you and your ilk should shut your ignorant mouths, well, I thought it might do you some good to contemplate the principles on which this country was founded for a couple of days. Y'know, what with Independence Day coming up and all. (You know what Independence Day is, right? No, not the movie.) Actually read the Constitution, The Federalist, stuff like that. Maybe read your state's ratification of the Constitution if it was one of the original colonies, or the Kentucky Resolutions - instead of just sitting around in your little circle-jerks and calling the President "dumb." I asked you lot to show some respect for the country, and for the office of the President, even if you don't agree with the man. Basically I asked you to show a little class. I guess that was pretty stupid of me. Put it down to the fact that I was drunk at the time; trust me, I won't make the same mistake again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just making an off the cuff remark in response to what the crybaby posted before me. Of course he took it as a serious point, but that's not surprising.

Guest Cancer Marney Report post Posted July 2, 2003 No it isn't. <g> Sorry about that; I didn't look up the post, I just quoted it from memory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Tyler McClelland Report post Posted July 3, 2003 (edited) Yeah, I've read both of the documents in question. I believe our administration is doing damage to the documents in question (i.e. the Constitution vis a vis PATRIOT act), and I think the holiday should be no excuse not to speak up against the administration. Did I make some retarded comment about Bush and Miller? No. Thanks. Will I criticize him on other issues? Of course. July 4th has nothing to do with Bush.

Of course he took it as a serious point, but that's not surprising. Are you calling me a crybaby? I just said it was smart for the GOP to have Miller identified with Bush. I made no unfavourable remarks about Bush. I was just pointing out how some people view him. Read my post again and you'll see that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DrTom Report post Posted July 3, 2003 You were warned, Hardyz. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest kkktookmybabyaway Report post Posted July 3, 2003 Hardyz was warned? Boooo... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest JMA Report post Posted July 3, 2003 Hardyz was warned? Boooo... I never wanted him banned. I just wanted him to leave me the hell alone. That's all. He couldn't do that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest kkktookmybabyaway Report post Posted July 3, 2003 When was he harassing you?... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest JMA Report post Posted July 3, 2003 When was he harassing you?... The guy took a shot at me in his signature. He was also calling me names. Like I said, I just wanted him to leave me alone. I even tried to work this thing out with him via PM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bob_barron Report post Posted July 4, 2003 So why was hardyz1 banned exactly?? Was it for calling JMA a crybaby? I hope there's a better case for it since hardyz was always a quality poster in current events and I'd hate to see someone banned over that. I'm sure there's a better explanation though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like I said, I just wanted him to leave me alone. I even tried to work this thing out with him via PM. What names did he call you? I think some people here need to grow some thicker skin. Didn't AS flame treble charged in his sig for a long time?? If Hardyz did something else to get banned then I take back what I said- but this banning sounds a bit fishy.

Guest DrTom Report post Posted July 4, 2003 He ignored two separate warnings from two different moderators. I agree that some people need to grow thicker skins, but when you're told twice to stop what you're doing and you don't, then the hell with you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
