    Police evict protesters

    Many people resisted the American Revolution for the very same reasons. Some were still loyal to the Crown, some didn't want their lives interrupted or inconvenienced, their businesses disrupted, or didn't want to deal with the repercussions of the British Army. And many from afar sat back and...

    Police evict protesters

    I'm not sure what "wholesome" has to do with any of it, since you can be quite wholesome and contract any number of airborne diseases. In any case, I do think it's interesting that the very people who want the protesters out are the ones confirming the "outbreak". "Let's see, how can we get...

    Any way I respond to that is going to be inferred by you or someone that I'm implying that you're stupid. So I won't. I do, however, pay close attention to what I read, regardless of who wrote it.

    On a separate note, you can't try and use "trolling" as a catch-all to try and silence those you disagree with. That smacks of Obama.

    You have to pay more attention. His windbag comment was in direct response to a personal attack. Well, no, it's not that he's implying they are stupid, he's implying they are saying stupid things. There's a difference.

    Despite me very likely having the most tolerance for free speech, I have the least tolerance for trolling of anyone here of the admins and moderators. What RLENT posted my be offensive to those sensitive to the issue, but it ain't trolling, any more than those who post about far right or far...

    It was in response to what you posted, but it was in direct response to the words written on that piece of paper in the picture, not to you. If you want to take ownership of those words because you agree with them (is that what "this about sums it up means? I don't know). Well, I didn't get the...

    Yeah, but, nowhere in the original response did it mention you, either. No one spewed anything at you.

    This isn't about you. Believe it or not, not everything is. It's not even about your sons. Just because someone wears a uniform doesn't necessarily make them a hero, any more than wearing one made them vile "baby killers" in Vietnam. Believe it or not, it's OK to criticize the military and those...

    Yes But it was the result, sorry. ...also, a personal attack. You should have addressed what he said, rather than trying to call him out.Soon as you called him out, it's personal. Again, yes it was. And it invited a response. I know you're talking to RLENT, but it's my perception, as well...

    Waterboarding is torture says McCain

    Instead of Enhanced Interrogation Techniques, why not call it Torture Lite? With the right marketing, the latter would sell better. It's a third as long and twice as fulfilling.

    What most people don't realize is that the majority of people from Texas look like Ron Paul, or the Frito Bandito,... or Maria Conchito Alonso.

    I do know one thing, it's a little lame (not to mention hypocritical) for someone to report a post as being "Threatening and Antagonizing" when the post is in response to their own threatening and antagonistic post. (I'd say you can't make this stuff up, but clearly, you can.) You wanna attack...

    Roadside assistance

    My apologies for not being more clear when I wrote, "Yes, that's a lot of towing. My Sprinter hates its own belt tensioner." So I'll just say that yes, that is, in fact, a lot of towing. All of the tows involved my Sprinter. All of the breakdowns were belt tensioner related. I'll also add that...
