Yes, Troy made the initial attempt at derailing the thread and with you responding (to which Rock then responded to you, hence, derailed thread) it was you making Troy's attempt successful. In other words, he tried to start a fire and you tossed a little gasoline on it instead of ignoring it. You didn't do anything wrong, I'm just saying I wish Troy's attempt to derail the thread would have been ignored, that is all. [grin1]

If so let's put on our thinking caps

and try and come up with a plan to whip this thread back into shape.

but I won't hold my breath.

That's just it. If I remember correctly, we talked things over, making points, not name calling. I respect anyone that actually has a conversation with me. If you can disagree and walk away still respectful of each other, that's the way it should be.

Talking things over and making points is vastly more conducive to a discussion than frustrated we can't articulate our points intelligently and subsequently flinging names at one another as a result.

I didn't start anything, Einstein - I just don't like that pussy PackFanWithTwins. He fucks with me, but because he does it oh so tactfully - that's ok. Tact went out the door about 18 months ago, Zero, when you and the rest of the mods shit yourselves and let Texas ruin this forum.

And to answer Cheesey's little question about a pissing contest, well Cheesey, I'm not hooked at the hip to the party that drew a line in the sand and derailed this country. That is what you Conservatives have done. You're just all too arrogant and stupid to take a good look at what your leaders have (and not) done in the last six years.

Oh yeah, and to stay on topic, I just love being called a Liberal, Communist, Socialist - just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. In reality, I live my life more conservatively and responsibly than most of you. I just refuse to have anything to do with the Moron Party and their evil agenda.

The problem is, you cannot let things go. You cannot look the other way. You cannot NOT say something. You have to have your voice to be heard, regardless of the consequence.

You ignorantly think because you read a few comments from a screen name that you are competent to make such judgment how one lives their life in comparison to you? Absurd.

Bottom line, you are not better or worse than the next and that's something you need to come to grips with. No matter how good you have it, someone has it better. No matter how bad you have it, someone has it worse.

A thread to try and flush out what is truly wrong with "labels" and "boxes" has devolved into nothing more than a thread of "labels" and "boxes".

Microcosm of America folks.. event the largest of social issues today on the front pages everywhere is trying to force the practice. Police = Bad. All White = Can't Understand. All Blacks = Targets. The Poor = Just looking for a hand out. The Rich = Oppressive. Liberal = Stupid. Conservative = Heartless.

Carry on America... Carry on.

In place of trying isolate and correct issues on an individual nature and then looking for relationship in a big picture... we as a collective nation just want to clump it all into giant boxes and then try and fight the issues on that level.

A small percentage of "rogue" police that very well might and probably are racist is now being equated into a war on all police everywhere. Just as incorrect as thinking that all those protesting an acquittal as being malcontents and just as racist. Or that all people on public assistance are just looking for a hand out. On and on and on... but not once is there a positive thought in most of it.

Now my sand is cold again.. better grab a hat.
