    And what is that supposed to mean?   Talking about do no harm too offensive?  Saying associations should be voluntary too hot of a topic?  Discussing the lack of morals in the policy of taxation now hate speech?  Or was it the mommy's basement comment that did it?  Nah that can't be it.  
    No need to take this personally.  The comment I made was made to no one specifically.  Look at the the forum rules.  A number of infractions here. 


    But hey, it's a rock and roll forum and rock and roll is about rebellion and breaking the rules right?  Until you get caught.  Until you get put on read-only.

    But look, I don't care.  I find a lot of this amusing.  Out here in the west, we have much larger concerns than people breaking rules on a fucking rock forum.

    We're not supposed to say "fuck" here.  Looks like I broke a rule.  :lol:
    Better to not draw that kind of attention TBH ... unless you're actually hoping for some bans or something, which I doubt, or at least hope not. I know you were joking, but.... Basically what I'm saying is ssshhhhhhh. ;)

    Where does it say that you can't say fuck? I know I can't say it TO you and I wouldn't, but c'mon, they have it in the title of their songs! :confused:

    I never hope for bans which is why I brought it up.  I'm hoping my jesting will bring some attention to that potential.   I would suggest keeping  person arguments confined to PM's.  Just a thought.

    Unless we're talking ongoing harassment or bullying of a personal nature, or super fucking crazy offensive things that cross in to hate speech or whatever, I agree with this.

    If you decide to get on the train, then you ride the train where it takes you. I'm a mommy, I don't need a mommy to 'help' me out of heated arguments I've gotten myself into. That's part of learning how to have proper discourse. Don't always get it right, but it's the goal.

  • I'm not really sure who you guys are talking about, but if you're talking about me reporting someone (who shall remain nameless), I didn't actually go through with it. If you're talking about someone else, just ignore this post.

    I have no idea who, if anyone specific, is being talked about. I don't really think that anyone reports posts to the mods except the very rare instances when they've been egregious, or when there's been concern about someone's (i.e. the poster's) well-being.

    As much as I was joking, I honestly can't picture anyone here reporting anyone else.  I least I would hope not.  Who here would dare cast the first stone?  Not I! 

    I think we are all like a somewhat dysfunctional family.  We're a bit like Keith Richards said about him and Jagger.  Like a feuding family. 

    In these weird times, I'm glad your all here.

    Thank you both for the responses! Very kind of you.

    I'm glad that the feuding family remains intact as well, Brianlux. :)  All of the regulars have definitely earned a seat at the table.

    I flagged someone once for shockingly blatant anti-Semitism directed at a person known to be of Jewish descent and faith.

    "Mixed breeding". Is that some kind of white supremacist lingo?
    Yes, as is 'forced association'. 

    Unsung pops in and posts or says something that is outright racist or controversial. He then leaves, ignores questions or demands answers for questions that any person of any political persuasion would find offensive and not worthy of answering. 

    He used to post as a libertarian but it seems he has drank the Kool-Aid. If only for his inability to have an intelligent & respectful debate with anyone anymore. 

    It is tiresome and SAD! to watch someone devolve.
    I'd say that my attendance here is really none of your business and my reasons why or why not as well.  

    If you knew anything of Libertarian core principles you'd know that the following apply.

    Do no harm but to prevent harm.
    All associations should be voluntary.
    Taxation is theft.  In other words you don't have any right to my labor, and vice versa.

    Now while I no longer claim to be a Libertarian, I do still believe in those three points.  

    Government is force.  I don't believe in forcing my beliefs, even on someone such as yourself, and therefore I will not have you force yours on me.

    The common tactic that the left uses is to discredit the source, quickly followed by name calling and attacking the person with the opinion, instead of arguing the point.  Straight out of the Alinsky Communist playbook.

    I'm not here to provide your research, not going to use your hijacked vocabulary either,  and really don't care of what you think of my attendance.  My attendance is voluntary.  I have been attacked here repeatedly and never give it a second thought, even by the guy that still lives in Mommy's basement 

    You want an unsung AMA so that the stalking and screeching to my opinions can be isolated to one thread?  Easy enough to go back and see me devolve, huh?

    Maybe you just want your echo chamber.  Get your safe space, huh?
    so you deride others as attacking the person, and then you proceed to:

    -make fun of someone for living with their parents
    -parrot the right's stupid talking points "echo chamber" and "safe space". 

    the hypocrisy is hilarious. 
    You beat me to it as if Unsung knows why such a person has to live with parents , my mother suffers from Alzheimer’s she lives with my brother but if he wasn’t around you can bet that I would move in with her to take care of her , Unsung doesn’t know anything about the poster he so ridicules ..
    jesus greets me looks just like me ....

    Yawn.  Point proven.  Again.  Usual suspects.

    I didn't use names, unlike the obession with some here.
    what point was that exactly? who is obsessing about what?

    and we're all still waiting for your big explanation about how a society works without government services. you have been asked this multiple times, always claim you'll answer, and never do. because it's a fallacy not grounded in any reality.

    Actually, he was banned and went back to being a lawyer and trolling other message boards.
