October Suprise...

[Big Train]

I LOVE THAT....HE SAYS RACIST? This comment is less than 1/4 of an inch away from a swastika in his avatar...


I'm not saying you are, but if I was a mod, I'd lock down your avatar. It would at least put you even with JCook, for being locked out.

Tick tock, tick tock...

[FORD]

The meaning of the avatar is very obvious, and I sure as Hell ain't a Nazi. Unlike Junior and his grandpa.

Besides, the ridiculous racist allegation was made before I switched avatars.

[Warham]

FORD is unsympathetic to the Holocaust survivors by parading that avatar on the Army forum, no matter it's intentions.

[FORD]

If you paid attention, you would see that the avatar is ANTI Nazi.

[Warham]

I see that it's anti-Dubya, but I don't see the Nazi connection.

Seems disturbing to me.

CONSPIRACY!!! OCTOBER SUPRISE!!!! CONSPIRACY!!!

I guess since george bush's grandfather was supposedly
a nazi in your opinion, that makes geoge bush one too.

ok, lets continue your comparison. George Bush is an
american. Ford is an american. therefore, George Bush
and Ford are nazis.

if my brother commits a crime of murder, does that make
me a murderer too?

Washington State politics: FAR, FAR, FAR out of touch with
maintstream society and politics.

Well,

I'm not calling you a racist. I just find it amusing that you have a swastika in that post where you ask "racist"?

However, I would assume you lock down threads because even it they are not overtly racist, they could make some uncomfortable. I'm sure you are aware that the swastika makes people upset, regardless of what point you are trying to make (and to have it on a Jewish entertainers site, WOW). What you make clear is that it isn't racist, you are using it to make a point. Which pretty much anyone you have locked a thread on for this reason would argue.

So why talk one talk and walk another walk?

[Pink Spider]

I can't believe you actually pressured FORD into removing the avatar.

I would told you all to fuck off, but that's just my pleasant demenour.

If Kerry can be called a commie, then Bush can be called a Nazi (which I find no trouble drawing simularties to both even if matching them vice-versa) . All is fair in a free speech society.

I don't like them being called either.

[Big Train]

I'm not pressuring him and he could have told me to fuck off either pleasantly or unpleasantly. I was just merely pointing out why sometimes people get bent about him locking down threads based on the same logic that he would use that symbol for.

Nobody pressured me. However, 2 people who happen to be Jewish took it entirely wrong, and for that reason I changed it, but not without an explanation of what it meant in the first place.

I'm not here to piss on anyone's beliefs (or lack of, in your case) just on the BCE :D

[JCOOK]

Hey Ford by taking it down you have offended me ...What gives ....Dave

[FORD]
