I want to get off!” 10:44:41 AM 7/24/06 “Doom and gloom, huh, if some of think I resemble that remark it can be somewhat explained by this quote: "If a path to the better there be, it begins with a full look at the worst." -- Thomas Hardy Curious, a search of others opinions regarding overpopulation in various message boards has revealed a couple of interesting trends (neither of which I necassarily endorse nor condemn): There is now an organization for women who pledge to remain child-free Leaders in the gay-lesbian movement are now predicting that heterosexuals will pass into a minority of the world within a few years. last edited: 7/24/06 2:56:31 PM” 2:51:31 PM 7/24/06 “Yeah and AIDS was going to be a heterosexual epidemic by 2000. The Oceans would be dead in 10 years....etc etc Sorry but I keep hearing this prediction and that prediction...Lone my attitude is that the left will keep taking the ROE V tactic for pregnancys. The Conservatives will keep having kids.....” 2:55:17 PM 7/24/06 “If vegetarians eat vegetables what do humanitarians eat?” 3:10:57 PM 7/24/06 “the joy out of life?” 3:14:34 PM 7/24/06 ““Kind of funny how Crash was so offended by LX's use of the term wet back yet has used the word "Nigga" more than once. if thats what you think, then maybe i didnt make my point clear enough. my comments were directed at those who took offense to treebeards use of "wetback", but would give xl a pass for the same word. besides, you should realize that the context of my use of the word "nigga" is not half as offensive as xl's use of "wetback". if i said n i g g e r, especially in a derogatory way (which i didnt), then id concede you THAT point, anyways” 7:24:54 PM 7/24/06 “IMO wetback isn't as offensive as nigga is last edited: 7/24/06 7:27:33 PM” 7:26:16 PM 7/24/06 “it is to wetbacks” 7:27:34 PM 7/24/06 “nigga is a word of solidarity, originally said from one black person to another. n i g g e r is a racial epithet” 7:29:25 PM 7/24/06 “i worked with a mexican woman who said she didnt mind the word spic, but hated wetback. xl, i understand you were referring to illegals only. however, the common usage is for all mexicans, or all immigrant mexicans at the least, so using it makes you sound racist. i dont think youre a bad guy. i just thought you had a doozy of a pair of quotes recently. good entertainment value. i also think youre a really smart guy, unfortuneately, i cant trust any of your opinions to be objective, cuz everything you say is dripping with political bias.” 7:36:26 PM 7/24/06 “it is to wetbacks” Crash Bang 7:27:34 PM 7/24/06 not around here” 7:40:43 PM 7/24/06 “really? well, since they dont speak english, why would they be offended? last edited: 7/24/06 7:45:40 PM” 7:43:12 PM 7/24/06 “you tell me! you're the one who said they would be offended.” 7:46:39 PM 7/24/06 “because it insinuates that all theyre good for is being bent over in some bean field, working like an animal. its dehumanizing” 7:50:31 PM 7/24/06 “So some are arguing that wetback is not a slur?” 7:50:56 PM 7/24/06 “CB, that is your opinion. How about the migrate workers who do that. Of course the illegals have taken those jobs to” 8:03:03 PM 7/24/06 “Hyway and joy, brings to mind his 'Ode to Road Construction', one person's joy is another persons destruction. But after work today and then a couple hours in the garden I am now enjoying a nice medley of home grown organic stir fried food, blue cheese and olive oil store bought. but, you know what they say, the world couldn't be fed if all farming were organic well, guess what, its inadequately fed now and can't be fed for much longer with the chemical based farming that is occurring, organic is the only way (in the long-term). Doom and gloom, do something in your own backyard or else the governments and corporations will profit from your problems. Its up to each of us.” 8:08:23 PM 7/24/06 “What ls said! I think.” 8:19:19 PM 7/24/06 “LOL>.Crash...I find it hilarious that WORDS can hurt so much to some people...but these same people use WORDS to strike (and when corrected demand first amendment protection). You know I can show time after time where people on the left have used slurs..that would have had a Republican THROWN OUT OF WASHINGTON...but no one calls the libs on it. I use derrogatory terms for CRIMINALS. I have to deal with people who use this society everyday...when they get caught (regardless of their previous behavior) they DEMAND protection. Or maybe I am like a certain 'alleged communist" instructor I had in college (a MILITARY COLLEGE BY THE WAY). HE brought every hateful term, insulting term and counter thought in history out. He decried the attack on the Soviets and did everything to challenge our beliefs....that is WHAT he was doing. As he explained on night,"I could parrot the beliefs you want to hear, but then what would you learn?"” 8:21:58 PM 7/24/06 “Oh yeah, thanks for reminding me about that one lonesurveyor. I had forgotten all about it. I wish I could remember the words.” 9:21:06 PM 7/24/06 Yeeeeeeeeeeeeee Dogeeee “ ”10:07:49 PM 7/24/06 “ ![]() last edited: 7/24/06 10:45:31 PM” 10:43:47 PM 7/24/06 ““you should realize that the context of my use of the word "nigga" is not half as offensive as xl's use of "wetback". if i said n i g g e r, especially in a derogatory way (which i didnt), then id concede you THAT point, anyways” Speaking as a person who has black relatives I can say that, no, it is not different. Go up to a black person on the street and say, “Hey nigga, what time is it?”. What reaction will you get? Wait, don’t tell me, some of your best friends are black so it’s OK, right?” 6:45:55 AM 7/25/06 Back On Topic..........please!! “LOL. I would love to see Bush lend ten or so B-52s to Isreal for a few carpet bombing missions.” XL400236 7:25:35 AM 7/25/06 I wanna keeeeel, I wanna keeeeel, I wanna see dead burnt bodies.......I wanna keeel!!!!” 7:38:32 AM 7/25/06 You Are Gleefully Pro-Death “LOL...I personally wonder what would happen if we awoke one morning to find Teheran was missing from the map................................................Then he could list the cities on the target roster for the week.” XL400236 7:33:20 AM 7/25/06 Situational morality at it's finest!” 7:45:24 AM 7/25/06 “Good MarkO...you are learning. What was it my Cadre Sgt taught me...."Kill or be Killed, there is no award for second place."” 7:46:16 AM 7/25/06 “You know I can show time after time where people on the left have used slurs...but no one calls the libs on it. no one? thats what we have ppl like you and stove and s-rge for. theres always a thread by you or someone like you how some libby's done this that or the other thing, theres ann coulter and rush and all the other right wing commentators so dont tell me no ones calling the left on their stuff.” 7:46:40 AM 7/25/06 “Yeah we call em..but NOTHING happens...want a recitiation of libs who have said stuff and still are acceptable?” 7:51:53 AM 7/25/06 “"Kill or be Killed, there is no award for second place."” I read one captain that used to say the Purple Heart is nothing more than a marksmanship medal for the enemy.” 7:52:27 AM 7/25/06 “"Kill or be Killed, there is no award for second place."” XL400236 7:46:16 AM 7/25/06 Yet another fine example!! Slaughtering a city full of humans on the chance that there are some terrorists among them puts YOU in contention for first place among mass-murderers. Kill or be killed does not fit.” 7:55:08 AM 7/25/06 “Yeah we call em..but NOTHING happens...want a recitiation of libs who have said stuff and still are acceptable and your side is a bunch of angels, i know.” 8:04:28 AM 7/25/06 “Um...MarkO you sound so like the homeowner I had to advise on why we had to do some damage to put the fire out. She was mad we tore the sheetrock out, and ripped up flooring and cut the roof for ventilation. Crash. No we are not angels I agree. But did anyone ever notice that these so called "HEROES of the movement who will brave darn near anything to obstruct honest people from their work will get all in a tizzy when a WORD is used???"” 8:13:26 AM 7/25/06 “Uh huh, sheet rock and humans of mid east extraction are of equal value............if you apply situational morality. So what if they get MAD when there family members are slaughtered.” 8:20:56 AM 7/25/06 “HEY Hey...we are talking about reducing world population here...I thought you guys liked that? And NO they are not equivilent. Heck you nail a piece of sheet rock it stays there..it don't roll around on the ground screaming for the media to get a photograph.” 8:24:03 AM 7/25/06 11:17:44 AM 7/25/06 “Yikes!” 11:22:40 AM 7/25/06 ““nigga is a word of solidarity, originally said from one black person to another. n i g g e r is a racial epithet” Crash Bang 7:29:25 PM C!B! should go into any 'Low Income' Housing Project and walk up to a nice group of Black young adults and use his 'N' word that he thinks isn't offensive. He will be very lucky not to lose his life. last edited: 7/25/06 11:27:06 AM” 11:25:26 AM 7/25/06 “Yes you will burn in hell. Racist. BTW- 68. hee hee!” 11:25:47 AM 7/25/06 “i was speaking to intent more than appearance. "nigga" can have sardonically positive overtones. "wetback" really never does. but yea, as a general rule, a white should never say it to a black. blacks can say it to blacks, whites can say it to whites. tell you guys what. ill go say "nigga" in the black projects, if xl will go to some mexican barrio and sling about his "wetback". deal?” 11:49:09 AM 7/25/06 “", instead treebeard goes on a foul mouthed hissy fit defending foul racial slurs. StoveStomper 10:16:00 AM 4/28/06 see? even one of your own thinks it is foul” 11:56:54 AM 7/25/06 Of course wet$$$$ is a racial slur “Did treebeard ever admit 'w#$%%k' was a racial slur? I don't think he ever did. He just threw his hissy fit and attacked me for questioning him. I'll go dig up that thread.” 12:04:37 PM 7/25/06 “so if i hadnt said anything, would you have said anything about xl saying it?” 12:08:23 PM 7/25/06 “Yes please, dig up more trouble!!! SS, that is... last edited: 7/25/06 12:13:15 PM” 12:08:54 PM 7/25/06 “Since when did we become each other's politicly correct wet nurses? Are we supposed to keep tabs on each other and make sure we balance everything out between the republicans and the libbies? Grow up people. K?” 12:16:48 PM 7/25/06 Here is the thread “A Bunch Of Wetbacks Take Bareback Fingerboard Mtn http://www.thebackpacker.com/trailtalk/thread/43702,-1,1.php Here is my criticism that sent treebeard into a rage: ““For what it's worth, I find the thread title offensive too.” VioLiN 11:13:31 AM 4/27/06 The Vile Man and I agree on something. I might cut a little slack, due to the heavy rain. Still, a very poor choice of a TT thread title for the whole world to see.” StoveStomper 12:25:48 PM C!B!, you are an #&%!$ for trying, on purpose for no other purpose but to entertain yourself in that other thread, to get treebeard and me into another fight. I chose not to pay any attention to that at the time. If you wish, I'll tell you where you can go again. Treebeard never did admit that term was racist in that thread. last edited: 7/25/06 12:20:17 PM” 12:17:25 PM 7/25/06 “It appears there are several people who do not think it's a racial slur. I find that fascinating. Forget mexican barrio, we can walk a couple blocks North of where I live, find some nice gentlemen with MS 13 tatoos and ask them. We might even find some nice gentleman with "18" tatooed on them. I bet they would love to give their opinion on the subject.” 12:17:44 PM 7/25/06 “I see treebeard has not taken part in this thread, and that shows he is more of a gentleman than C!B!. Anyone using a 'N' word has no business #&%!$ing about another using the 'W' word.” 12:23:51 PM 7/25/06 “The N word makes you edgy and hip. Wetback doesn't.” 12:26:08 PM 7/25/06 “Dang, look at SS dance like a puppet!” 12:36:31 PM 7/25/06 “LOL Don't worry MarkO. NO ONE is ever going to think you are a gentleman.” 12:40:26 PM 7/25/06
