The statement is only a paragraph short of being even longer than Stephen King’s It.

I have had alot worse said to me in this forum without the person getting so much as a warning.

That’s very true.

I guess my shock comes from how long it took to ban people like Id or frevious after dozens of warnings compared to yours.

I’m annoyed that people are overreacting to it and I honestly don’t think it’s an effective protest, so I have to judge it on how exciting it is and it just isn’t. Sorry (shrug).

Honestly, my irritation comes from the fact that their “protest” is even more boring than the sport they’re playing.

Lol, really? I mean I’m not sure if I’ve yet seen a clearer example of white privilege.

What? It’s a very cool protest.

I don’t know, I just loved the line.

You also told him to sit on a tack (which I’ll grant has lost the bite it probably had in the 50’s but still).

LOL!

That statement isn’t part of my personal Canaan.

Jeez, spoilers in the thread title?

Yeah, this protest has done nothing. It hasn’t gotten anyone talking about police brutality at all.

That’s completely false.

Not any more than they were before.

Apparently you haven’t been reading this thread…or Twitter…or Facebook…or political articles…or watched cable news…or listened to sports radio…

I could go on and on. Perhaps in your experience nothing has changed, but since Friday, things outside your experience have changed quite a bit.

They’re talking about the anthem a lot. Honestly, my irritation comes from the fact that their “protest” is even more boring than the sport they’re playing.

Burger King sucks so hard.

But regardless, forum moderators usually take a dim view of these kinds of discussions.

Yeah, I should probably back out now.

The Westboro Baptist picture was why you were banned?

That and the bs flag pic seems to be the reason.

From what I read I think it was the latter. People have posted Westboro Baptist Church pictures to make a point before, unless it was because of their God Hates Fags slogan.

Divulging what a moderator said in email and/or PM is also definitely not the best idea.

FTFY

TV’s Frink said:

I definitely don’t want you banned permanently. With that said, I’m not sure this thread was the best idea.

I don’t think I blame him, though. I still have no idea why he was actually banned and don’t have the drive to peruse too much of the Politics thread (for obvious reasons).

Not any more than they were before. I’m a firm believer in protesting out in the streets. Picket a police station or something along with taking a knee at the game. Doing just the latter and nothing else is bland and uninteresting in my book.

Just to derail the football talk, am I the only one who hates that right wing shill Ben Shapiro? People think he’s smart because he talks fast, but all he is is a die hard partisan that will defend conservative Republicanism at all cost. He’s one of the most astoundingly dishonest political sources I’ve ever encountered.

Well, clearly you only hate him because he hurt your feelings! Facts don’t care about your feelings!

/s

The irony is that he is one of the most easily “triggered” people on earth. He’s constantly bitching about stuff that doesn’t matter but hurt his political or religious sensibilities.

If the movie is good, record it however you want.

Is that a New York Stock Exchange code?

My question is, what would prompt you to pirate a fanedit if they released the OUT on blu ray?

I literally just answered that.

No you didn’t. Not specifically at all. What problems would prompt you to go for a fan edit if the OT were actually released on blu ray?

I hate people that don’t realize they just need to shut the fuck up. There’s nothing more despicable than a person that thinks anyone on earth cares about what they have to say.

I want to give a special commendation to John McCain. I really respect him. He’s a politician, and thus is undoubtedly full of shit most of the time, but he’s one of the last ones to display any real decency.

Yeah, it’s life. When you have a lot of things to do at the same time, you still have to do all of them. Your phone company doesn’t care that you also have a utility bill because they expect you to pay for the already agreed upon services you’re using. The person paying a company to fix their washing machine won’t accept that style of excuse if no one shows up on the scheduled day. You took an AP class knowing you’d have six other classes.

EDIT: All that aside, I get that it’s a pain in the ass and don’t blame you for bitching about it in the bitching thread. 😃

A thread for all things Ken Burns. He made a great documentary on the Roosevelts.
