Subject: RE: BS: Don't deport Piers Morgan From: GUEST,Big Al Whittle Date: 30 Dec 12 - 08:53 PM I'm sorry if this sounds simplistic. But truth about activism is simple - you have to act. Things may not get done in your lifetime even, but it feels good giving dull reality a kick in the bollocks and giving the world a push in the right direction. Even if its only a facebook page for people to register their solidarity with you on the issue. All you're really saying is that the other side has got its shit together. Perhaps you aren't the guy who will see the collapse of the citadel - but maybe your job in history is to put up the first recruiting poster for opposition. |
Subject: RE: BS: Don't deport Piers Morgan From: Don(Wyziwyg)T Date: 31 Dec 12 - 05:16 AM ""I saw your post in the Indian Murder thread, and note that you have a simple, but different explanation for what happened there. I would suggest that your simple "explanations" come more from your need to make sense out of these terrible events than out of any real understanding."" Which has nothing whatever to do with the fact that these school mass murders could not, as you claim, happen without the availability of rapid fire large capacity guns specifically designed for killing people. You insist on personalising a comment which was addressed to the whole USA. If you don't feel the need to have guns yourself, why do you disagree with the idea of controlling them? Don T. |
Subject: RE: BS: Don't deport Piers Morgan From: GUEST,Stim Date: 31 Dec 12 - 05:38 AM I am not making excuses for myself, or anyone, Big Al, I am trying to help you to understand the situation here on the ground, as they say. Personally, I have made a life commitment to confronting and dealing with a number of social and political issues, most of which, perhaps not surprisingly, I believe to be a the core of the real problem here. When I say "life commitment", it really means years of my life and a lot of my own money developing and implementing programs that address these problems on a one-on-one basis. There are not two sides in this. When there is a problem,some people need to believe there is a villain out to blame it on. Most always, the ensuing conflict takes on a life of it's own, and the real problem is never dealt with. So it goes.... |
Subject: RE: BS: Don't deport Piers Morgan From: GUEST,Big Al Whittle Date: 31 Dec 12 - 06:39 AM Believe you me Stim, if a pygmy like Piers can get them this rattled - there are some pretty guilty feeling villains. And they know they've been rumbled. |

Subject: RE: BS: Don't deport Piers Morgan From: GUEST,Stim Date: 31 Dec 12 - 12:54 PM It was the signoff for Linda Ellerbee and Bill Schechner's "NBC News Overnight"--which has been called "possibly the best written and most intelligent news program ever." And, as you may allude,John, her name is Linda Jane. |
Subject: RE: BS: Don't deport Piers Morgan From: Don(Wyziwyg)T Date: 31 Dec 12 - 05:56 PM Spot on Al! Somebody said it earlier. ""A real friend isn't someone who agrees with everything you say. A real friend is someone who tells you the hard, unvarnished, unpalatable truth!"" Pratt and Lott and all their ilk are dangerous idiots, with a vested interest in the reduction of "Law and Order" to "Might Makes Right". Piers Morgan might just be the best friend that US parents have, at the moment. Don T. |
Subject: RE: BS: Don't deport Piers Morgan From: gnu Date: 31 Dec 12 - 06:54 PM Don... "...the fact that these school mass murders could not, as you claim, happen without the availability of rapid fire large capacity guns specifically designed for killing people." Said it on another threadsssss... that is bullshit. If ya wanna kill, you aim. If you don't aim, you don't kill. None of these killers just pulled ONE trigger and kept it squeezed. It's just NOT efficient. And, said it on another threadsssss... it don't take but a few simple tools to make any weapon do what you say is the problem AND, on more than one threadssss, I have tried to explain that repeating weapons of MANY types are FAR more deadly that what you espouse as "killers". Said it on a number of threadssss... guns do NOT kill people... BAD GUN LAWS kill people. Dunno why I have to post that again. Surely I have said it SO many times on SO many threadssssssssss? Bark all yas antis want. But, sooner or later, someone is gonna shoot that yappy little dog. Or, ignore it... like the NRA does because yas all can't understand some common fuckin sense. The NRA does what it does because of the shit that you anti's just don't get. We had another recent thread where peeps posted NObody ever said "get rid of ALL the guns". There were posts in that thread that said THAT! Unreal to me to read such crap. Until you anti-gun nuts understand the gun nuts and WHY they think YOU are nuts... well, they got guns... do the fuckin math! JAYSUS! WTF is wrong with ALL (anti AND pro) of you? It's easy to solve this if you ALL would just stop yer fuckin bullshit, self-righteous crap! Oh, yeah, right, sorry. Said that on many past threadssss.... dunno why I thought any of youse would listen this time. And, all of youse just keep on allowing children to be slain because youse can't get yer shit together. BOTH sides. Shame on every single one of you. |
Subject: RE: BS: Don't deport Piers Morgan From: pdq Date: 11 Jan 13 - 11:23 AM My old computer doesn't `do` videos so I have to assume this is good: young man shows Piers Morgan for what he is |

Subject: RE: BS: Don't deport Piers Morgan From: Jack the Sailor Date: 11 Jan 13 - 05:42 PM pdq, I think that young man did show Piers Morgan for what he is. An organized interviewer who pins down weasels like that young man and forces them to keep trying to change the subject and talking about irrelevant topics. |
