George W is gone. All that's left are haters, extremists, anti-semites and freaks. Do we really need this anymore? Can we get back to music and the good life and kill the negativity thread? Im sure there's another home for all the malcontents. Join me in leaving the MT. Close it down!

    If the negativity bothers you, there's always the unthinkable option of... not reading it.

    Your Hero, G.W.Bush may be gone... but, it looks like his attitude against the First Amendment is alive and well in you. You don't like hearing something, so you feel it should be abolished.
    What are you? Some kind of North Korean old lady looking dictator?

    Since when did the 1st Amendment have application to a private website? Listen, try to insult me all you want but at least have some working knowledge of Government 1 before throwing around the 1st amendment. It doesnt apply here. I can speak really slowly and explain it to you if you'd like. Here it goes. The 1st amendment only applies to the government. Get it now? If you were in my house and you said something I didnt like could I legally throw you out??? tick tock tick tock. Yes! This is why we need the MT closed. Musical ignorance isn't as offensive as political and historical ignorance. IMHO. Im just saying. It makes the band look bad. And I do love the band. You guys need a new sand box. Thats all im saying

    Ive been here alot longer than you junior. In the old days, before all this political bullshit these boards were about the great band, their fantastic albums and shared musical interests. Ive been here since 92. I come back hoping for some change and hoping the board itself gets away from the negativity and embraces the music again. Thats why. Not that I owe you an explanation. But there it is. I still move to close the MT down. It draws a scary.......element.

    That's all fIne and dandy... except you left out one important fact... This is NOT your house.
    Yeah... go create a message board and you can run it in any manner you wish. I have no right to ask you to shut it down, just because I do not agree with the opinions expressed there. The SAME principle applies here... who are you the try to get someone else's message board shut down because you do not agree with those opinions?
    What makes an activist rock band look bad is the expression of opinion and exchange of thoughts being shut down because one person disapproves of it.

    This doesn't make a lick of sense. Are you really taking some sort of high ground first amendment defense after starting a thread an hour ago whining about how this place has no free speech and you were unfairly restricted from throwing insults by the evil censors of the message pit? What the hell kind of lawyer are you?

    On the upside, I'm glad that in the past 2 days there have been two douchebag attorneys making asses of themselves around here so that I no longer have to carry the mantle of asshole attorney around here.

    Huh? Smoke?

    Don't pretend you're above it all and just baiting us, you've already outed yourself as loving stirring shit up. Which is fine. We all do, or we wouldn't be here. I love a good debate, which is why I'm still posting. Of course, it's a lot more fun when you've got somebody that can pull their weight instead of spouting gibberish...

    wow, 92. i am impressed :roll: are you talking down to me? whatever Pops....

    if you paid any lick of attention the the music of this band you will know that they have ALWAYS been political. yes, even back in 92....their politics and their music are intertwined and are one in the same. if you want to talk about the music, there is a whole section of this board for that. its called the porch. i suggest you spend some time there if you want to avoid negativity, confrontation, and people with opinions different than your own. i thought maturity comes with age, apparently not in your case.

    if you want the train shut down, how about not coming around it? the solution is simple enough in my eyes.

    I'm a little rusty on my cryptic gibberish... but, here goes...
    I believe the 'China' reference is the moderator(s) of this messsage board... and when she gets wind of this, EncinoMan will no longer be allowed to post here.
    The History Channel thing in not so clear... I am going to assume that the History Channel is showing something about bait or China... or bait in China.
    Am i close?
