infuriating, indeed

I am constantly frustrated by the number and type of individuals who are so ready and willing to dance in the blood of innocents. These people (though I almost hate to use that word to describe them) seem willing to…

a job mends

In light of the impending disaster awaiting us later tonight, I guess it would not be too much overkill for me to point out that the upcoming James Bond movie sucks. How do I figure that? Well, when a review…

Oh, where to start…
First, I did not lie. In fact, you admitted it yourself in your very own comment – you banned my IP from your site simply because I dared to disagree with you. Thus, I did not lie.
You, on the other hand, are lying, and bald-facedly at that.
How, well, that is the second point. Nowhere did I, or anyone else I know of, try to “run Mr. cooper our (sic) of his job” – we simply exercised our First-Amendment-protected rights, just like he did. Nowhere did I try and deprive Mr. Cooper of his freedom of expression – unlike, say, you. Nowhere did I try and oppress Mr. Cooper’s comments – they are out there for all the world to see, and given that he has not retracted them, I can only surmise he is proud of them (more power to him, in that case). Nowhere did I tell the company what they should do regarding Mr. Cooper, or the boycott – that was their own, independent decision, and I would imagine they came to it after considerable discussion and consideration. Nowhere did I tell Mr. Cooper he should not say what he did, or should not say similar things in the future – in fact, I welcome his comments. I may disagree with them, and express that disagreement (as it is my right to do), but I have nothing against him expressing his thoughts, whatsoever.
You, on the other hand… you simply could not stand the prospect of disagreement on your sacrosanct little weblog, could you? You could not allow your precious little echo chamber to be violated, could you? Unfortunately, that is the risk you take by providing open comments on your weblog – people of a dissenting opinion might *shock* actually express that disagreement. I know your bubble could hardly stand the offense, but if you do not want it to happen, I suggest mandatory registration or required comment moderation… otherwise known as “Reasoned Discourse” – a phrase perfect for your weblog.
Suffice to say, Buck, you are the hypocrite here (as Brass already pointed out), and, honestly, I feel nothing but pity for you – pity that you are so narrow-minded, pity that you are so blind, and pity that you are so enormously hateful. But, despite that pity, and despite your obvious disagreement with me, I will never block your IP to this site (and if it does happen, please drop me an email – I know you have my address – since that means my spam filter went wonky).

Wow, that Buck is one eloquent speaker. And the fact that he’s calling you hypocritical?! It is to laugh.

“The administrators of Blue Herald have blocked my IP, simply because I had the nerve to disagree with them”
Lie much?
Remember the argument you made over at BlueHerald about having the right to run Mr. Cooper our of his job because you and your ilk disagreed with his pro-Obama views? Don’t I have that same right? I disagree with you, so I ran you the hell off my site. Have a problem with that?
If you do, doesn’t that make you a fucking hypocrite?
Stay the fuck off BlueHerald, and I’ll gladly stay the fuck off this piece of shit site, m-kay?
And quit lying to your reader.
