I second the notion you reduce your sig. Trimming it down to one paragraph would give it much more impact. As it stands, people are just going to gloss over it.

Why do I feel like I'm talking to Yosemite Sam?
 
Try This:

I BELIEVE America is the guiding light of the world, and a bastion of freedom against terrorists and fanatics. I BELIEVE it is our right to destroy these threats to liberty with extreme prejudice and I support our military which allows us to do so. We may not always be right, but we are the first, best and brightest among nations, and if you don't believe that, you can get the hell out of my country.




I think that would sum things up quite nicely. I'm biased of course.
 
What's with the poll?
If everyone on the board was worried about what people would think about their posts, or threads, there wouldn't be any.

We all have the right to read or not read your posts, and to respond or not respond.

That and show some restraint with the capslock key
 
I dig Busybody and a whole lot of other people who dare to be different here, where they risk being shunned. attacked and ridiculed for speaking their minds.

I care more about people being themselves than I do if I agree with them or not. Sometimes I even learn something new from somebody who I never would have guessed could teach me.

Rock on, Mr. Body and Happy New Year to you and yours.
 
Ruby, normally I would agree with you that I would like those who dare to be different.

But when that difference is a hatred of an entire group of people and manifests itself in numerous racist comments, I cannot condone such behavior.

I think to chalk it up to just being different is ludicrous.
 
Ruby....THANX

Looney Lav....Yes,I HATE those that want to hurt and kill us.....I see no problem with that

To love your enemies is to invite your own demise!
 
Who are you to condone anybody's behaviour but your own, Lav?

I just don't think it's important that we all think the same way. I'm interested in why people think the way they do, but it's not up to me to try to change them.
 
Well, I see

That the YES colum has taken a huge lead


so if you all wanna see me STOP....

You better stuff the NO coloum

and HURRY!

you're becoming canadian ruby! :)

It's odd, but I've always wanted to spell it that way.

Happy 2003 to you sweetheart. Are you feeling better? Lots of snow up there? We're having a ball here in it - my kids are way into sledding now and my son wants to learn how to snow board. We all wiped out a few times, especially today because it was icy, but there is nothing like the feeling of flying down a snowy hill, totally out of control with big smiles fueled by adrenaline. :)

I like winter.

for a class this semester i wrote an analysis of this psychological study done at a canadian university. i ended up adding the british/canadian U when i was writing the paper. now i have to think extra hard when writing behavio(u)r :)

i'm in california right now, so there's no snow here. lots back at school though. i'm feeling okay, just exhausted. i'm going to the dr soon to see about steroid treatment for the mono :\

hope your holidays were happy. enjoy the snow while it lasts.

I like hugging trees.
I am a member of Greenpeace.
Should busybody stop posting based on what I may think of his posts?
No. He can post what he likes and I willl continue to choose if I read his threads.

I believe in free speech.

People can say what they like.

It doesn't mean I have to agree/like everything a person
posts/says/believes. You can say/believe what you like. I choose to read and still believe in my own opinions, or ignore the post/ persons belief and disregard it or rethink my position on that post/belief.

busybody is busybody, my not agreeing with his beliefs does not change who he is or what he thinks.

No one can change my beliefs except me.
I may not condone what busybody posts.
Nor like what he posts, but in reality I don't know
him. Nor could I vote yes I no longer want busybody to post.
It is his choice, not mine to continue to post.
I did not vote.
I cannot change a person unless they want to change.

In r/ I have friends who have opposing views to my own.
I respect their opinions and value their friendships.
Despite the fact that some do not share the same morals/values
I have. Ethically speaking? Each to their own.
You may not agree or believe what I believe but you are still a human being and I care about you.
I may not like what you like/say or disagree with you at times.
But it does not stop me from being who I am.
Someone who accepts that we are all different.
Condoning what a person does is different from
liking/accepting a person for who they are.

You forgot the Character Assassins.
 
Let BB speak.....

Someone's opinion, no matter how stated, is as relevant as anyone else on the board. If you curtail one, you'll eventually curtail all except those that share your outlook. That would be pretty fucking boring, as well as kill the Lit's intention of international dialogue. :D
