Naked Protest: Beard would not be censured for her ...

Lots of radical groups do radical things, get over it. It's called America, that stuff is allowed, and encouraged. Oh that BLATANTLY calls for this.... Whose America? Yours? NOT MINE.

That is why we have this system of "Majority Rules" not minority...... must be nice to be the majority........... www.youtube.com/watch

Not only does Spock never say that it is okay to assault somebody, even in protest, he never even mentions PETA. He simply said that he finds it courageous for somebody to take a stand against injustices. How does the fact that Spock thinks it's okay for Beard to support PETA (because maybe she believes in their core values and not necessarily all of their methods) equate to throwing poo? Step back and look at his comments and tell me how you haven't taken them way out of context. Well....like with Spock...I would say agree to disagree.....I interpreted that way different than you did........When someone tells me that they think someones illegal acts are "Courageous" (that is the way I interpret what was said) I take issue with it.

TJ. The Revolt in this very country was "illegal" in terms of you went against the governing body--civil disrupton and not paying taxes to the crown (OK a gloss coat I know). Would you say that is un-courageous? Many a courageous act was illegal at the time it was committed. Suffrage for example, though god knows now women have a political voice we're in a dire mess...Sometimes these things are done to make change. .

He never cited a single act, tj, get off the high horse, or scuba dog, or whatever you are riding today. It was a general statement about taking a stand. If you have to interpret his statement then you have already acknowledged he did not say it, move on. You have your opinion....I have mine!

Nowhere in the running commentary between you and Spock does the subject of PETA, illegal acts or *** come up. You mentioned it when you were debating with Hulk, but it does not come up between you and Spock. I don't even see how you can interpret this string as him saying that it's okay to assault somebody or throw poo on their fur. You left out the one where I was talking about people throwing *** at others.....kind of changes the whole discussion when you leave that out! Put the whole thing in there!!! Spock was responding to the comment I made to Hulk. If not, then yes...I apologize to Spock....I took it as a response to the *** comment.

Mr Liberal. I think you've now bashed country dwellers, the South and protesters! C'mon guys. Protest and free speech are good. Throwing *** is not though. I'm not against free speech. I just call 'em like I see 'em. Some protesters are there just to cause mayhem, not promote the cause. MLK understood this. If you can't remain passive don't march. Oh, weren't a lot of the Civil Right's activities--sit ins at whites only diners and such--illegal too? Rosa Parks broke the law when she sat at the front. I'm not saying poop flinging is tasteful, but labelling any illegal protest as not courageous is not correct either.

If it were not for cows we would not be able to have steak. I am in favour of feeding those cows protect them so we have a good supply. I love eggs keep those chickens well fed so they produce lots of eggs. They also make great meals from KFC. Feed those porkers they supply us with great ribs. Heinz would go out of business if we did not use Ketchup in our BBQ mix. If we did not eat pork, beef, chicken BBQ manufacturers would go out of business. The economy works because we eat all these critters.

If you click the little arrow on top of Spock's post about him thinking the act courageous, it will take you to his original post. There you will see that he quoted your original message about personal politics. The comment about *** was in a discussion with Hulk and it was not the topic of any of Spock's replies. That's why I left it out. I stand corrected.....thanks for pointing that out. Going back and reading it again you're right.

That's something that never happens at home. I'm never right, so it's nice to hear those words!:-) By the way, I like your avatar. Did you find it, or is it your dog? It was one of those being sent around via Email....listed as the the New Navy Seal of Mexico. I can send it to you if you want...... I thought it was pretty funny!!
