Maybe his objection to the picture is that he recognized his own handiwork? So far, he's refused to answer that question, despite claiming direct experience.



Hey Kiki - I need to borrow your lawyer when you're done so I can sue SICKY for defamation, m'kay?

How do you know what I've said or felt about US activities?

We do know how you feel though - you think you are responsible, you said so yourself., "we've tortured..." So please tell us what you have done to stop this from happening? What have you done to repay the damage you feel personally responsible for causing?

You'd think if you were being honest and actually cared so much for these families south of the border that you'd be advocating strongly to bring them to this country where you could take care and protect them. And yet you advocate for the opposite. It's so confusing!

So many contradictions from you - please explain them.

You ever figure out why Haken sent your thread to Troll Country? Or is that still a deep, dark mystery to you?




SECOND is a troll because it constantly misrepresents what people post, fails to address their actual positions, and resorts to personal attacks when its brain isn't working (which is most of the time).

You think me strongly disapproving of you posting images of mutilated children is an attack? How so?



It is the way you do it.

Signy was making a point. One which you completely disregarded by saying what a terrible person she is for having posted such a thing.

You are a ridiculous person. It's no wonder the only people here who take anything you say seriously are either as ridiculous as you are or exponentially more ridiculous.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

OH GSTRING!!! Sweetums!!

Let's go back to the original posts, shall we? This is how it went

Quote:

The United States has "intervened" in every single nation in south and central America (except Costa Rica), in some cases many times over, covertly and overtly, all in behalf of foreign bankers and the IMF, landowners, foreign companies, and their juntas. Most of the time the CIA-deposed leaders were land-reformers who believed in greater social spending for things like education, distributed land ownership, housing and health, but this would not have set well with the profits extracted by foreign banks and transnational corporations. I can provide you with a pretty complete and damning list of "interventions" if you like, or you can read "Confessions of an Economic Hit Man".

Quote:

For anyone who thinks there is no need for an International Women’s Day, here’s one reminder from a death squad in Central America that I cannot forget.

At dawn on February 20th 1982, I head off to ship film at the international airport, but I first encounter the victim of a right-wing death squad, later confirmed to have been a 30-year-old woman. What’s left of her body tells the rather complete story of her last hour of life. That is, for anyone willing to look long enough at it, and contemplate all the indignities collected there.
Her underwear is still stretched tight, clinging below her knees. Her attackers must have started off with that, since otherwise it would have been pointless and much more difficult to pull the cloth down after everything else that happened.
On her left hand, still in relatively fresh condition, all the finger tips have been cut off, and then the hand itself is also cut off. The muscles of her left arm are removed down to her wrists. The remainder of her left arm is burned and then also cut off. Long strips of skin are peeled off from her left leg, again an effort unlikely to have happened if she was past caring. The heel of her left foot is the one part of her body to show how hard it dug into the sand. She is finally disemboweled, then scalped. Pieces of her skull are scattered about, and then her head is cut off, which is missing from the scene.



[The picture was taken by Ross Baughman, an American photojournalist and Pulitzer Prize winner. ]

THIS IS NOT JUST A THING OF THE PAST ... Nicaragua, like the other aforementioned nations, has suffered from widespread protests due to weak currency. SNIPERS HAVE KILLED PROTESTERS THERE RECENTLY. Gee, where have I seen this movie before? Ukraine? Venezuela? Hillary Clinton supported the Coup in Honduras ...

THIS is the topic that GSTRING is not interested in talking about- SIGNY

Wrong again: I am not interested in discussing with you. I've not only "seen that movie" I've been in it.= GSTRING


http://www.fireflyfans.net/mthread.aspx?tid=62483

Well, there you are, claiming direct experience in SOMEthing. If I'm to track the topic immediately before your claim, it was snipers in Ukraine and Venezuela, and a military coup in Honduras.

So, what WAS your role in that "movie"?

HAHAHA!! One of the other possible roles I mentioned was "Peace Corps".

YOU CLAIMED some sort of direct experience with ... snipers in Ukraine and Venezuela? The military coup in Honduras? Hey, I didn't have to infer your direct involvement, because YOU claimed it. So you might want to clarify that claim, otherwise people will .... yanno ... wonder exactly what you meant.

ETA: But if you should ever decide that civility is the way to go, let's give it a try.

By keeping myself aware of and rational* about the damage that we've done and NOT try to bury the topic, like you seem to do, and voting and writing to my Senators and Representatives, and doing all of the things that a honest citizen would do

* Trying to discern the reality beyond the spew of propaganda from our M$M, separating the more important from the less important, and the causal from the coincidental.

NO, son, that's what YOU'D advocate. My approach is to STOP FUCKING PEOPLE OVER IN THEIR OWN COUNTRIES SO THEY DON'T HAVE TO ESCAPE THEM. We destroyed Afghanistan, Iraq, Sudan, and Libya, and made a good attempt at destroying Syria. Is it any wonder (to anyone but you) that Europe is suffering a migration crisis from MENA?

We fucked over every nation south of our border, and bent them in thrall to our "free trade" agreements which put their small farmers out business but benefited our transnationals and banks ... Is it any wonder that we have a migration crisis from Central America?

Like WISHY, perhaps you didn't read or understand the line next to my avatar

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them
Instead of "helping" the poor, maybe we should stop making so many people poor to begin with. Do you think THAT might be an option, hmmm???

Oh, I see you answered the question: You had no direct role in any of the activities that I posted about. Maybe you generated a tweetstorm about Ukraine, and libeled me online, but that's about it!

Well, carry on with your useless existence, then!

More "civility" from the ANTIFA crowd ...

Quote:

Riot Breaks Out In Portland As Antifa Activists Clash With Conservative Marchers

Scuffles broke out shortly after 6 pm local time as Antifa protesters pelted marchers from the conservative group with eggs, water bottles and firecrackers as the marchers spilled out into downtown Portland for their legally permitted march in support of a conservative Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate. The march followed an afternoon rally at Terry Schrunk Federal Plaza, Reuters reported.

Officers seized weapons like utility knives, clubs and chemical sprays from Antifa protesters as they gathered nearby for their counter-rally.

UNLIKE WISHY, I think that the proper response to assault (begun by ANTIFA in this case, but next time it could be a different group) is to arrest the individual aggressors.

We should NOT be dividing ourselves up into warring camps. That's so stupid, and we only wind up hurting ourselves. We have much bigger problems to solve; maybe we should get together and start fixing them.

How can you watch video of Nazis starting a fight with the patriotic heroes of antifa (with the help of police), and claim the opposite?
