OT N. Korea returns 55 sets of remains

[yankeesince59]

uh, that is the only method the people have to do the deed.

... that's not what you said and did "the people" create the electoral college by voting for it?...but hey, don't confuse this with "whining".

 

[MarAzul]

"the people" create the electoral college by voting for it?.

Yes, via their representative as is usual procedure.

...uhhh, no...wrong again...the people themselves did not draw up The Constitution in 1787.

Actually Sly, I said in the post you deleted, it was an asshole comment. As you often do being from the liberal side, what you see as insults
are not viewed the same by me. It is an asshole comment, is feed back as on how I view the post. Not intended as an insult at all, just want the man to know exactly how his post set with me. You have deleted several of my post over the years of this nature so I do have a feeling for the differences between us in this area. Someone could call me an asshole, and I would not even flinch, but I am sure you would do your thing with it. Now when someone does post, usually a liberal, something that does tend to insult me, you find no fault. Such as, Trump Cocksucker and other very negative comments about people that vote for Trump.

In other words, the insults are policed in here in an unbalance way from my point of view and I can even accept this as it is. But, when you delete my posts as insulting and leave the the liberal to insult away, it pisses me off, thus my favorite good by.

I have no bias in how I edit or remove insults. Ask Dviss, Riverman, and many others on the "left" who have gotten as upset as you over posts being deleted or edited for personal insult.

We have had this discussion before. Just because a post is insulting to you doesn't mean it's a personal insult.

Insults are "policed" by myself and others as fairly as possible.

If someone does insult you and if it is missed by myself or others please point it and if it is an insult I will gladly remove it.

Saying that Trump is a cocksucker is not a personal insult about the people who voted for him.

Deleting several of your posts out of the 16,795 you have made doesn't prove bias. It actually proves the opposite.

In this thread you said, "only an ass would say..." "only an asshole would say" and you called someone a fucker. I actually left the fucker one because while it was not meant for me it was in reply to my post but those are all 3 personal insults.

This is how the people duly elect the President.

Are you denying that more people voted for Clinton? and that was even with trump getting help from Russia.

We have totally failed to communitcate on this subject again Sly.
Example
"Saying that Trump is a cocksucker is not a personal insult about the people who voted for him. "

While not an personal insult, I find it just Un-American, something only a low life prick would say. But you did miss my point.
It is not Calling Trump this, it when the liberal refers to the Trump voter as a "Trump Cocksucker " and other low live comments of similar nature that I find insulting far beyond simple calling some one an asshole.

In general, the difference in what is insulting is probably quite different for the liberal than it is for the conservative. The differences between the two is far more than just how they vote. We both know if you took a vote in this forum as to whether you moderate fairly,
I am sure you would be approved by the vast majority. Not at all surprising, the liberals out number the conservative maybe 15 to 1 in here. And I chuckle at what is considered insulting, it does not match with my view at all and that is usually ok. But once again, you did delete one of my post as insulting when it was not in my view. I did not even call the man an asshole, I said the comment was and asshole comment. I could not have spoken the truth more plain, no insult intended. It was straight forward honest communication from the heart. This was deleted and it did piss me off.

I have tried several times to communicate these difference with you and fail each time. But I would point out, that the people the get
banned in here or get piss and quit, have been way more conservatives than liberal thinkers. Each time that happens, I wince. I would hate to see this place become completely a sanctuary for the liberal pity party. It's nearly there but saved by the tenacity of the few.

...^^^ [shakes head in disbelief and walks away]

 

[MarAzul]

walks away

By bye!

 

[yankeesince59]

...Oh, sorry to disappoint but I'm still here...I simply decided to "walk away" from picking apart your post, again.

 

[CupWizier]

By bye!

wah wah waaaaah!

We are never going to have a rule here that if you, MarAzul, find something offensive then you are allowed to insult them because of it. When you do find an opinion that is offense to you I suggest you do which you do 99% of the time, which is explain why it is offense to you and make a counterargument.

As far as making this into a liberal vs conservative thing that is just not true. It's easily a 60/40 split between the basketball section of the forum and the OT section of the forum when it comes to personal insults being deleted or edited. Also over the years I know I have edited or deleted far more personals directed at you then insults by you.

People get pissed and quit for a variety of reasons. The majority of people who have quit this forum over the years has been because of opinions on the Blazers and basketball, not politics.

The 3 people you're referring to who were permanently banned, 1 was banned in 2014 for repeatedly insulting people, the other 2, one banned by Denny and one banned by myself, were banned for saying vile racist things in the forum. All three bannings had nothing to do with politics. NOTHING.

I'm relatively new to this board but this is the worst case of a message board melt down I have witnessed in years...and the sad thing is that it was self-inflicted.

what's really sad is that marzy can't even be honest about what he posted that got him deleted. I remember the posts when they were made and I knew that they would likely be deleted as they were definitely personal attacks and mainly on lanny.

 

[dviss1]

But there is enough to bash Trump over....

All y'all has lost your shit.

I don't think I spent more than 10 minutes of Obama's 8 years bitching about him.

I don't think some of you have 10 Trump free minutes a week.

I'm literally curious if there are sleep aid sales stats we can look at. I bet sales are through the roof.

That's because the idiot in charge is ALWAYS doing dumb shit (like really dumb shit) that can be bitched about.

 

[dviss1]

Clearly Trump should have told them to flush the remains and everyone would be happy.

Of course the TDS sufferers might not like that we give these remains that MAY be Americans killed in action a proper burial cuz.......

I suppose you numbnuts wanted Trump to personally DNA test the remains himself.

Jesus this shit is getting unbearable.

Stop spouting talking points. TDS is literal bullshit.
