De Blasio seemed, like any nationally prominent politician, like he had long term goals of a higher office, whether it be governor, senator, or so on. If he had any such goals, then he just royally shot himself in the foot just to stay in the good graces of his local Puerto Rican community's voters.
*shrug* I'm just saying, either he planned to retire as a politician after being mayor of NYC, or he's incredibly fucking stupid...and will now have to retire from being a politician after being mayor of NYC. I don't get why....why would he choose to march after all? What a stupid, trivial thing to throw away your career over. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Don't know how they can get away w/ honoring literal traitors. Read a historical timeline a few weeks ago, too, where it went into detail about how the use of the Confederate battle flag was pretty much nonexistent after the war and only started up again widespread during the civil rights era of the 50's and 60's, to "fight back" against it. It's all pretty sickening. ... Copied to Clipboard!

We've seen plenty of former terrorists of left and right reinventing their image by putting on business suits and ties and turning themselves into statesmen (or statesmen-in-waiting) while the families of their victims have to watch. That's politics, I'm afraid. It's not an unfamiliar experience in countries where violent internal conflicts have been resolved -- or at least the cracks papered over -- by political settlements.

The U.S. government tortured Oscar Lopez Rivera. His story has nuance to it if you're interested in learning about colonialism in Puerto Rico... His victims' stories had a lot of nuance as well... or would have if they hadn't died (and his surviving victims' lives have a lot more "nuance" for the suffering inflicted at the hands of his organization). As for Oscar's nuance, the biggest thing you need to know is that Bill Clinton offered him clemency if he renounced violence. Oscar did not. Oscar's decision, by the way, was renounced by the leaders in Puerto Rico as well. Even if you could argue that his cause was somehow just, his methods were anything but. Equally important is that he didn't even enjoy the support of his own nation. The IRA had broader support than the FALN and the IRA was inexcusably wrong. --- (\/)(\/)|-| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash ... Copied to Clipboard!

Again, you're missing the nuance on the clemency. Do you think Clinton would have denounced violence to enforce colonial rule on Puerto Rice? Of course not. State violence is necessary to maintain a colony. --- =^..^= ... Copied to Clipboard!

Erik_P hasn't made bullshit lies about me. *gasp* Oh shit! You sure showed me! If someone made bullshit lies about me, like say schmen, I'd probably just ignore them. But shit, just because someone HASN'T made bullshit lies about me, they must be better than schmen, right? You know who else hasn't made bullshit lies about me? Charles Manson. I assume the same is true about you. So either you're going to tell me that Manson is a better person than Zeus, who ostensibly hasn't been made as a serial killer, or you're going to have to admit your stupid criteria is emotionally self-serving while you continue to justify your blatant topic-stalking, OR you'll admit that Zeus is an asshole but you haven't made yourself out to be much better (I can agree with this, everyone makes mistakes), OR you can give an example of the bullshit lie and explain why Erik_P's disgusting constant negativity is somehow better than Zeus'...whatever. And I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume this has been ongoing, so the earliest example would suffice. --- "Nostalgia is a hell of a drug." -Magus 10 ... Copied to Clipboard!

I never said I approve of Erik's negativity. I'd prefer everyone got along. I never said Zeus is worse than Charles Manson. Of course not. That's not the point. The point is that someone making BS lies about you is a shit reason to seek them out to degrade them. Because that is only a personal reason to dislike some, not a good reason. This is also why I invited you to explain your reasons with examples. Which you haven't done. Just reasserted your position. I invite you to give specific example here, with (at risk of being accused of moving the goalposts, since 1. I didn't state this before upon reading my post and 2. GF deletes posts after a time) some evidence for review. jedirood posted... while Erik has at least been respectful. Not to ignore the part where Zeus went out of his way to attack you (I can see you've done that to him, so it may be untenable, while understandable, for you to return the favor), if you think Erik is respectful you need to reexamine your worldview. Zeus posted... =( I don't hate you either. That's how I feel about 95% of the board. Not a bad thing. Zeus posted... For the record, everything I've said about jedirood has been true, which is what really burns him up as well as the fact I can chose to block him. To be fair, I need to at least give him a chance to defend his position. FrndNhbrHdCEman posted... Ya wanna devils advocate a troll to a teen. Lol Be my guest. If you think I'm simply being "devils advocate," meaning the correct term wherein I argue a position I don't necessarily agree with, you are a damn fool. I certainly agree with my position and will defend it accordingly. Assuming the rest of what you said is true, then I am correct to challenge jedi to defend his views so he can potentially be someone who learns to do it himself and not be simply mediocre, and follows his confirmation bias as do the rest. Think before acting. That said, if he comes to the same conclusion and can defend it, even if I still disagree, I am in no position, nor influence, to force him to change. Teens being more emotional is hardly an excuse to allow them to form their opinions on emotion alone. Feel free to emphasis this. --- "Nostalgia is a hell of a drug." -Magus 10 ...
