I called you a FUCKHEAD to your face and I told you the reason why I did it as well. I see that you didn't see or accept your own mistake and own up to it like a person with higher character would do. Well, I associate your lack of proper response with typical blue behavior. Judo is just another form of martial arts to me. I just used it as a way to remind you that you're not speaking to a stranger who doesn't know anything about you or anything about what you have written or about the positions that you have taken and the information that you've shared about yourself in the past.
What do you stand for? Do you stand for equality or do you just claim that you do? I don't know the answer but I'm sure I can come up with some more clever ways to test you further and find out. Or, are you willing to drop the term and never use it to your advantage again. Did you treat me as an equal or treat me as a lesser being? Well, if you were smart, you wouldn't treat me as a lesser being or snub me in any way because I'm able to hurt you and tarnish your image in many ways without using violence.
For the record, I have not been talking about or spreading rumors about anybody here. The forum does provide tools to send private messages, but I have not been using them.
I have been reporting what I perceive as violations of forum policy, and will continue to do so, whether the violator is red or blue, and whether the post in question is addressed to me or not. I keep the sending of these reports private to keep them out of the general conversations, which should be focused on history and politics, not personal vendettas. This does not mean I condone the violation of rules.
Equality? That could happen at many levels. Do I lie regularly about other people's position? Do I rely on insults and obscenity to make my point? (Well, sometimes you have to get Eric's attention.) In some ways we are not equal. Do I believe all people should follow the same rules, interpreted in the same way, equally? Yes. In that sense I do stand for equality.
Where it seems you do not.
That judo is different from kung fu is less important than that I do not use the threat of violence to change political opinions. You misrepresented me grievously, and in doing so you followed a typical pattern of lies.
And for the record, I would rather get back to politics and history. Drop the vendetta garbage.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
