Ah, Town arrives to correct the course of those around him. "You took a personal spin" and "I turned it back".
"What a man, what a man, what a mighty fine man". :banana:
Trad, do you dislike black people?

I wasn't unclear on the point. I'm equally sure I haven't said anything accusatory on the point aimed at you.
I noted a deficiency in Trad. One he appears to find satisfactory as a state and doesn't seem interested in altering.
You responded that I am just as deficient. Now that might seem like a shot to some people, but I took it as "We all require grace/none being perfect" and agreed with that much of it.
The problem is when we feel justified in our sin and hold onto it. Some even make it a point of pride, white or other.
When you said maybe, I noted there really isn't a maybe unless you aren't reading much of what he's written on the point. He's not a violent racist, but he is without question a racist.
Then you wrote:
Welcome to the party. Southerners get that from our northern cousins all the time. I had a friend who was beaten on a basketball court up north because he had an accent and one guy said, "Where are you from?" And because my friend, who hasn't a bigoted bone in his body gave an honest answer he ended up with stitches. It happens. It isn't fair. All you can do is answer honestly and be ready for what comes.
Now when you said:
It seemed like the perfect opportunity to contrast the wrongly accused with the actual thing I was speaking to. That's why I wrote: "Being sick of them does."
Please post another time.
PS - anytime you arent interested in anything i have to say, be an adult and ignore it
Easy.
She spoke to her personal experience. Since I wasn't accusing her of anything I used the point to contrast between her and someone rightly noted. It probably would have been better/clearer if I'd written would instead of does.
That you try to turn that into something else goes to your own deficiency. I think you're a bit of a loon...but that's not a professional diagnosis.
lain:
Im not retarded town, i understand what you said, and disagree with you.
What different about what you think is deficient in him, and your judgement - are you God?

No. I don't have time, and I'm pretty sure you have a good enough memory to know my memory is correct.
And re: your PS... that goes both ways. As you know. :chuckle:
As it happens, I was interested in what you said in support of Trad's overt racism - and that's why I said something.
Not to my recollection. You made the claim, so post it. Either way - you do know how to ignore comments by others that you arent interested in, don't you? Sure you do, so yes you are interested in what i said, or you wouldn't have commented.
I for the most part ignore trad, if you dont believe that, ask him. I know that extreme liberals like to make false accusations, so based on my own white history and what our racist in chief has wraught, I commented.
Lets say he is racist, i say so what, its his life, he can think what he wants.
Pretend to be an adult and ignore what you arent interested in, next time, your boredom, is frankly your own concern.

No. Your memory isn't my problem.
And yeah, I choose when to ignore comments and when not to, and I don't need help from a control freak.
I don't care how much you ignore Trad, and certainly not interested enough to ask him. :freak:
I made it clear I wasn't interested in your personal history, but I was interested in your clear support of Trad's overt racism. Yes, he can think what he wants, and I can think he's a racist, and that you make apology for his racism.
Don't like my saying so? Too bad.
Whats the view like from my leg, you really seem to like it there? (especially for someone who keeps insisting they arent interested in what have to say)
Disagree with what? I said his writing is objectively hard to mistake for anything else. You disagree? Okay, you're entitled, but you'd only finished saying you didn't know if he was or wasn't. :idunno:
And my attempting to be sure that anyone, not only you, reading me understood what I was doing and what I wasn't attempting isn't a sign I think you're impaired. It's a sign that I care that people don't read in a condemnation or insinuation aimed at you from me that I didn't mean to issue.
Now go ahead and tell me you understood that too and that I must think you've been repeatedly hit in the head with a claw-hammer. :mmph:
I don't have to be God. I only have to be able to read him speaking to shipping blacks from this country, admiring racist music and vomiting over the thought of interracial marriage to understand his position and that he's unashamed to hold it, is comfortable in it and isn't invoking grace, a thing he would eschew as Protestants understand it, to begin with.

I'm embarrassed for you.
Dont be, im not the least embarrassed for saying what you are doing. You should be the one embarrassed.
why you are still talking to someone who you claim to have no interest in.
She's always the victim, and innocent :rapture:

Ah, so racism is a sin. That's certainly good to know.
That you try to turn that into something else goes to your own deficiency. I think you're a bit of a loon...but that's not a professional diagnosis.
So, when the Town Clown spots something he sees as a deficiency in others ....be it racist or loon, he feels justified in pontificating (non-professionally, of course).

I love how they get embarrassed for us. That's the way Town comes across, too. He's just plain embarrassed I'm such a "loon". I think they learned that from Nancy Pelosi etal. :rotfl:

I'm not at all embarrassed for myself, but I am embarrassed for your coarseness.
That's completely dishonest. I told you I was interested in what you said about Trad, but that I wasn't interested in your personal dating history. It's not the first time you've been dishonest about me and it won't be the last. No matter. It won't keep me from posting to you when I choose to.

Happy to help. God said to love one another. What do you think racism is? What's at the root of it?
An "A" for effort driving in that wedge. Now guess what that "A" stands for. :shocked:
Adorable.
You're just adorable.

Oh, so you're claiming that Trad's dislike for black people is worse than your dislike for me?
Yes, I can just see your little mind turning and saying, "But I really do love you as much as I love myself." No, Town, I'm not buying it that you love any more than Trad does. You've just played the hypocrite so long you see others as less than you see yourself, and have no room at all to find fault with Trad concerning his feeling toward any particular race of people.

Adorable.
I'm hoping to drive a wedge between you and your ego, and I plan on continuing in that effort. :thumb:

Golly, if it's coarseness that embarrasses you, you'd best be avoiding Bybee not Angel.
