Has the Rhetoric Gone Too Far?

Featured Replies

Yeah, because we all know no one on the left ever does that garbage. You really make me laugh Ace. You're so pro-everything liberal it's not even fun discussing things with you anymore.

 

My statement was not pro-left, it was anti-violence. The Radical Right (which I would assume does NOT include anyone on here, save one maybe) constantly spout about terrorism. Yet these tactics are terroristic. How is being against somebody anonymously calling someone and threatening to kill them being pro-left. I cannot follow your line of reasoning that makes that connection.

If this were the other way around, you would be no where to be found in these threads. It's so predictable it becomes funny.

Why do you say this? I have never, ever, suggested any harm or retaliation toward anyone. Least of all anyone who disagrees with me. That is why people like LBBC struggle with my theology because I am not even convinced that I must convince someone to think like me for them to go to heaven. I don't even think I have disparaged people on this board. I would absolutely denounce suggestions of violence toward McCain or Pence or DeMint or Boehner, or Cantor (as a matter of fact he says there was a bullet shot through his window at his headquarters.) That is wrong and the person should be lawfully punished.

I think you're misunderstanding what I'm saying. I don't for a second believe that you would ever wish harm on anyone. I'm saying if it were R's getting threatened, you wouldn't post in the thread. Just my opinion of course, but it seems you don't post in threads that show liberals in a negative light. :idunno:

I don't post the ones that attack policy, because it does no good, and I don't do stuff that is silly (Glen Beck stuff). However, the FBI is in on this one.

So if it had been the congressman who had his gas line cut that would have been okay? Just so I get the full gist.:scared:

 

Where did I say that? Since we're making assumptions can I assume from the tenor of your posts that you live in a grass shack and every penny in excess of what to need to live on you donate to those less fortunate then you?

Yes you can make that assumption.:cool:

The heat we are talking about on this thread are the threats being hurled at them. You said you were not the least bit sorry about it.

Given the context of this discussion ...

... I would say that this reply ...

... wasn't entirely unwarranted.

Anyone advocating or even excusing threats and violence need to pause and do a self check. Besides it just being wrong morally, it also is a threat to our democracy. It is difficult enough finding quality people to serve and hold office without adding fear of violence to the list of reasons not to run for office.

We have quality people serving and holding office in Congress??? Could've fooled me...:lol:

Haven't been on here in a couple of weeks. How did I get pulled into this?:lol::lol::lol::lol:

And for the record, I don't struggle with it. I know you pick and choose Scriptures that you are comfortable with and forget the ones that make you uncomfortable, while people like me that you allude to TRY and fail to follow the Scriptures that we like and the ones that make us feel uncomfortable.

 

I try to follow what Jesus and His Apostles said and most of the times I fail at it. But I am trying to get better.

 

You follow what you want to follow and ignore the rest.

 

I don't struggle with it. Just want you to see your inconsistency and hypocritical views of Chrisitianity.

 

My worldview would be to allow homosexuals to do whatever they wish. But that ain't what Scripture indicates. And I have committed to try and follow what Christ and his Apostles indicated in Scripture whether I like it or not.

 

Anything different and it becomes MY Christianity and I ain't that perfect or smart to tell anyone how to live their life.

 

If I can't support it via Scriptures, it ain't something to listen to.:thumb::thumb:

Some. Not many but some.
