We already know that Stonewall Ajax is racist scum. What is interesting is that he has dropped any pretext and admitted it publically.


The point of this thread is that nobody can openly advocate enforcing the border, cutting social welfare spending, or speak out against unwed motherhood, without fear of losing his job or even go to a restaurant without Maxine and her like harassing us. I don't think there will be a civil war yet. But what comes next? How polarized can we be before civil war comes?
And when the confederates saw Jackson standing fearless as a stone wall the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

Just like secession (another of your wildest fantasies), how is a civil war supposed to work, given there are liberals and conservatives everywhere? Are all the racists and going to say to all the liberals, Noon, behind the drug store, by the dumpsters. That's where we settle this, once and for all. Be there or we win the war...

Seriously, have you ever really thought anything through? This isn't the late 19th century any more.

Not completely true. The main problem is the way that they often end up being discussed. Witness the current guy in the White House and his crazy rhetoric and dog whistling, combined with a border policy that was engineered to create chaos and sow divisiveness.

I don't think there will be a civil war yet. But what comes next?

Talking about the issues without attempting to paint everyone you disagree with as animals or leftists, for starters. Or, not using the tactics shown in the images that I posted earlier would also be a good start.

I don't think talking about the issues is going to change things any. We either have a country or we don't. We'll either be willing to fight to keep it or we'll forfeit it to those seeking to take it. My money was on US citizens being unwilling and unable to fight back. But DJT's election surprised me as much as it did you guys.

I still can't understand why illegal immigrants are even permitted in American jails. Why is separation from their children even an issue? They should be reunited in their native countries with their children immediately without trial, court costs, or even be allowed to step on US soil in the first place. This asylum seeking is all just a way of getting around the law and demonstrates that the US is not a sovereign nation. The fact that nobody is allowed to say or enforce that without being labeled a Nazi is an irreconcilable difference that demands a civil war and secession.

No worries. Looks like we both enjoy the same relative privilege, then, seeing how PR residents have been free to come and go within the US, and move to any state at any time, since 1917. For all of your mention of your parents having earned their right to stay, it sure helps to be born with that right in the first place, yes? Unless they're incredibly old, perhaps?

But, hey - keep up that other bit about the POC image you're pushing, while knocking other folks who actually have to deal with that. Your snowflake routine is pretty adorable. ; )

Damn, we used to see folks get lynched in this country just for walking around with the wrong skin color. Don't you think that your reaction here is just a tad too sensitive?

Universal Rule #3? Let's look at that:

Do not make mention of anything that allegedly transpired or is transpiring via the chat room or via private message that the source him- or herself has not overtly made public. People who communicate behind-the-scenes obviously intend their communications to remain behind-the-scenes. Any post on the board itself making reference to such things will be deleted.


Yeah, usually that's enforced when someone has publicly disclosed personal information about another poster that was gathered behind the scenes. All too often, though, it serves to protect people who actually harass and/or threaten a poster behind the scenes, from public scrutiny.

Go figure.


You do not state the conclusion that you think should be drawn. So what have you 'figured' here? Is it:

1. The rule was misapplied in this case?

2. The rule should be abolished or modified?

Or what?
