That is a no-shitter!:beer:Yeah, I guess the appropriate response is to stoop to their level and go tear up some of their shit.

The thread being mocked is about civility in verbal discourse. I'd be the last person to tell someone to stand around and get their heads caved in.

y'all have heard of "sticks -n- stones ...", right?

As far as the internet goes, I can even see firing back on someone. But when one's opening statement is nothing but a string of insults, I immediately consider it a smokescreen for lack of a real argument.

No, that wouldn't be the appropriate response, and obviously never is.

I think you're missing the point.

I think you're missing the point.I'm not missing any point at all. You make your enemy powerful by doing exactly what he wants. Who's REALLY in control?

Osama bin Laden.

I don't see where pale said we should tear shit up.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the vast majority of the incivility comes from the left, that's the point you appear to be missing, and I don't see conservatives rioting, looting, burning towns down, murdering presidents in bloody effigies or anything of the sort, so there's no enemy being empowered here at all.

And if some rabid liberal got all up in your face and called you every name in the book and threw an egg in your face or spit on you, don't even begin to try and convince me you wouldn't be cracking that fuckers skull, and I don't see you sheepishly disappearing every time a liberal here on the board talks shit either, you jump all over them.

This is the point I'm making, I don't want to make it over and over and over again, so I'm done with it here.

Cause and effect.

Who / what originates all of this ? THE LEFT, almost exclusively. There's a difference between initiating, and being reactive.
