One which you completely disregarded by saying what a terrible person she is for having posted such a thing. You are a ridiculous person. It's no wonder the only people here who take anything you say seriously are either as ridiculous as you are or exponentially more ridiculous.

Quote:Originally posted by SIGNYM: OH GSTRING!!! Sweetums!! Let's go back to the original posts, shall we? This is how it went Quote: The United States has "intervened" in every single nation in south and central America (except Costa Rica), in some cases many times over, covertly and overtly, all in behalf of foreign bankers and the IMF, landowners, foreign companies, and their juntas. Most of the time the CIA-deposed leaders were land-reformers who believed in greater social spending for things like education, distributed land ownership, housing and health, but this would not have set well with the profits extracted by foreign banks and transnational corporations. I can provide you with a pretty complete and damning list of "interventions" if you like, or you can read "Confessions of an Economic Hit Man". Quote: For anyone who thinks there is no need for an International Women’s Day, here’s one reminder from a death squad in Central America that I cannot forget. At dawn on February 20th 1982, I head off to ship film at the international airport, but I first encounter the victim of a right-wing death squad, later confirmed to have been a 30-year-old woman. What’s left of her body tells the rather complete story of her last hour of life. That is, for anyone willing to look long enough at it, and contemplate all the indignities collected there. Her underwear is still stretched tight, clinging below her knees. Her attackers must have started off with that, since otherwise it would have been pointless and much more difficult to pull the cloth down after everything else that happened. On her left hand, still in relatively fresh condition, all the finger tips have been cut off, and then the hand itself is also cut off. The muscles of her left arm are removed down to her wrists. The remainder of her left arm is burned and then also cut off. Long strips of skin are peeled off from her left leg, again an effort unlikely to have happened if she was past caring. The heel of her left foot is the one part of her body to show how hard it dug into the sand. She is finally disemboweled, then scalped. Pieces of her skull are scattered about, and then her head is cut off, which is missing from the scene. [The picture was taken by Ross Baughman, an American photojournalist and Pulitzer Prize winner. ] THIS IS NOT JUST A THING OF THE PAST ... Nicaragua, like the other aforementioned nations, has suffered from widespread protests due to weak currency. SNIPERS HAVE KILLED PROTESTERS THERE RECENTLY. Gee, where have I seen this movie before? Ukraine? Venezuela? Hillary Clinton supported the Coup in Honduras ... THIS is the topic that GSTRING is not interested in talking about- SIGNY Wrong again: I am not interested in discussing with you. I've not only "seen that movie" I've been in it.= GSTRING http://www.fireflyfans.net/mthread.aspx?tid=62483 Well, there you are, claiming direct experience in SOMEthing. If I'm to track the topic immediately before your claim, it was snipers in Ukraine and Venezuela, and a military coup in Honduras. So, what WAS your role in that "movie"? Quote:Hey Kiki - I need to borrow your lawyer when you're done so I can sue SICKY for defamation, m'kay? HAHAHA!! One of the other possible roles I mentioned was "Peace Corps". YOU CLAIMED some sort of direct experience with ... snipers in Ukraine and Venezuela? The military coup in Honduras? Hey, I didn't have to infer your direct involvement, because YOU claimed it. So you might want to clarify that claim, otherwise people will .... yanno ... wonder exactly what you meant. ETA: But if you should ever decide that civility is the way to go, let's give it a try.

Now that you mention it, I haven't seen you say that killing people is wrong! How come?? By SIGGY's logic that means you are in favor of murder. Why are you in favor of murder? Damn Jack, you're a terrible person.

Quote: Last chance
Quote:How would you feel if someone was using images of your child like you are?
Quote:How do you know what I've said or felt about US activities?
Quote:So please tell us what you have done to stop this from happening?
Quote:What have you done to repay the damage you feel personally responsible for causing?
Quote:Remember, according to broken SIGGY Logic, not answering is an admission of guilt.

Quote:Me too! Except I have never posted pictures of mutilated children on a public forum and lie about the reason
Quote: You said "we've tortured" - don't you remember making that sh*t up? Here: "Rather than being upset by the FACT that we've tortured and killed people in their own nations..." At least now you have admitted to making sh*t up - progress!
Quote:You posting that image on this forum is going to make "it" stop??? How? Do you think any of us work for the Pentagon?
Quote:So please tell us what you have done to stop this from happening? - GSTRING All of the things that a USA citizen can and should legally do to stop USA aggression in other nations.- SIGNY Me too! - GSTRING

Quote:Originally posted by reaverfan: Show me 416 crimes in which a liberal attacked or killed someone and justified it with their favorite politician. stochastic terrorism [stuh-kas-tik ter-uh-riz-uh?m] Word Origin See more synonyms on Thesaurus.com noun the public demonization of a person or group resulting in the incitement of a violent act, which is statistically probable but whose specifics cannot be predicted: The lone-wolf attack was apparently influenced by the rhetoric of stochastic terrorism. https://www.vox.com/2016/8/10/12422476/trump-second-amendment-hillary-stochastic-terrorism-anti-abortion-violence Stochastic terrorism is the use of mass communications to stir up random lone wolves to carry out violent or terrorist acts that are statistically predictable but individually unpredictable. This is what occurs when Bin Laden releases a video that stirs random extremists halfway around the globe to commit a bombing or shooting. This is also the term for what Beck, O'Reilly, Hannity, and others do. And this is what led directly and predictably to a number of cases of ideologically-motivated murder similar to the Tucson shootings. https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2011/01/10/934890/-Stochastic-Terrorism-160-Triggering-the-shooters

The fact that you seem to be reacting to a rather large number of Americans (roughly half of the voting public) as "enemies" even tho their involvement in political violence is ZERO, and are using that opinion to justify "your side's" political violence, is an indication that you are infected with the kind of thinking that you accuse others of. Here's an example to make it clear: Thinking that all Trump voters are white racists is the same as Trump saying that all illegal immigrants are violent criminals.

Quote:Do YOU know who I think promoted incivility, in addition to Trump?
Quote:The Democratic Party. The idea that we should elect someone just because they're a woman (identity politics, women v men. We see that in WISHY a whole lot)
Quote:Yes, how? How is this entirely TRUMP'S fault when the DNC has constantly played off blacks against whites, women against men, and straights versus "everyone else" for decades? It's not that this is "just" the DNC's fault, the RNC has done the same with religion and gun ownership, but the DNC definitely shares part of the blame.
Quote:Yanno, I have asked the question What are America's interests? probably a couple-dozen times by now, and only one person on the left ... and none of the self-styled liberals and nobody on the right .... even attempted to answer that question, as if the category "Americans" is such an alien concept that NOBODY can even imagine what it is that we all have in common.

Be he man or be she woman, as long as the job gets done, who gives a fuck who does it? All of you want to roll back the clock to the good ole days, where men were men and women stayed barefoot and pregnant. What a bunch of shiteaters! Fuck that! - SHINY

Quote:...turn everything around that you guys do and "gaslight" the world to death. Too late, we already have seen what's behind the curtain. If you don't know what "gaslight" means, look it up. It's a narc tactic (narc is short for narcissist).

Quote:And besides, your answer is in the question, or within your statement (well sometimes). We all agree that the term "American," and what it stands for, are pretty much a given.
Quote:Oh, and one more thing, and I think I might have mentioned this to you several times before: when you want someone to discuss things with you in a civil manner, you need to offer that in your commentary and discourse. Many a time I have read your contributions and have found it lacking in humility and civility. You seem to "slap people across the head with a two-by-four with a nail in it" and then become offended when they say they're bleeding.

You are no different - including your self-justifications- from the people you claim are "uncivil". Right now, I'm too busy to deal with your self-justifications, excuses, and squirming, Feel free to... 1) Attack me personally, or 2) Rationalize your bad behavior, or 3) Distract from the topic, or 4) Lie, or 5) Address the topic civilly and rationally ... whichever you see fit.
