Looting Resumes In Ferguson; Local Police Ordered To Stand Down

irrelevant.

Well, no. It is relevant but from a historic perspective. Smitty just kind of avoided explaining his disagreement with my quotation of King with regard to current events and the language that we are seeing and hearing from these people there in Ferguson. And, of course, framenting the debate with emotion kind of got the best of him I suppose. And then when you have some kid toting a microphone around playing 20 questions about things that he clearly doesn't possess the history to place into perspective with any answer that he may receive from the people he's asking, we kind of set ourselves up for a we ask, you decide mindset that just continues to fragment the issue in scope.

I'm going top try to figure out how the blog works here and scribble up a pov that wouldn't destroy any subsequent position from some of our candidates but also because I know that if I don't, I'll have wasted time arguing with an emotional person in a thread that'll be buried in a week anyhow.

It really annoys me when someone just calls me a name and avoids explaining the reason for it.

It's not 1965,...hasn't been for a long time. I seriously doubt that you were even alive then.

MLK's observations aren't applicable to 2014 or to the situation being discussed.

The issues that the liberty movement is attempting to address aren't racial. It cheapens the discussion to attempt to portray them as such. In fact, it's downright ridiculous.

The relevant issues are fiat money, non intervention in America's foreign policy, and just generally, the proper role of government in a free society.

Throwing the race card around is the domain of the Democrat liberals in the new millennium,...as it was in the previous millennium.

Let the liberals haggle over the stupid shit.

The liberty movement is about *genuine* issues,....not crap.

I'd predict that you'd see the whole country in flames in two weeks with that approach.

With several billion rounds of ammo on hand any widespread dust up would probably be pretty short lived.

I've been pounding pavement for the liberty movement since the early part of the 80's, Smitty. That work didn't start in 2007. You have the platform that you have because someone put it there for you to seek out and build upon. Now, It's healthy to be doubtful but do so wisely. You never know who you're going to run into on the www and I'd hate for you to place yourself in an unfortunate position to backtrack.

I just heard people say that they were rioting because they feel that it's the only way that they'll be heard. It's got nothing to do with a so called "race card". You said that.

Perhaps you could take the time to read some of my postings. I think you'll find that I try to remain rather thorough with regard to these particular issues as well as placing current events into relevance with them as well as others that you've failed to mention.

There is no such thing as stupid shit. Opinions vary. As does perception or general vision to scope from one person to the next.

As I said...consider reading some of my postings before educating me on what surmises a genuine issue and what is crap.



Either way, I'm still going to scribble up my thought on it in one of those blogs here at RPF just because you've reminded me of why those kinds of things are practical. Just haven't felt like it tonight. Was movie night around my house.
