    I think Billy especially doesn't like being bothered to moderate except when it suits him.

    The moderators in general don't seem to want anymore work, as evidenced by their replies in this thread, and Damocles is conspicuous by his absence.
    Damo is just as demented as the rest of us.

    I'd be in favor of it, but it wouldn't stop idiots like desh from calling everyone right of center racist.

    The ironic thing is that Desh has posted racial slurs herself.

    People like that use false accusations of racism when they can't frame a logical counter argument.

    WOW!

    You just described Lesion's post whining about desh's supposed racism.

    He couldn't frame a logical counter argument so he falsely accused her of racism.
    What kind of country have we become?

    One in which federal prosecutors can take “evidence” before a “grand jury,”

    and that grand jury can “vote to indict” a former president for 91 alleged “crimes”?

    Huh? what is a racist slur? Define it? Aloysious used racist stereotypes in APP and cried like a baby when I called him out on it. But just for your reading enjoyment a repost parable on how simple it is to show racism in America and it comes mostly from the right as our last president demonstrated.

    -----

    Life in a Parallel Universe - Well not exactly parallel, in this universe Palin is now Obama.

    Scene one: Democratic National Convention, at the podium Barack completing acceptance speech, behind him his family, daughter pregnant next to boyfriend of 17, wife holding latest child, Downs syndrome baby, other members of entourage.

    Scene two: Conservative republican bloggers, radio, and TV commentators watching from the privacy of homes and limited access areas.

    Voices heard from scene two.

    "Seventeen!"
    "Typical muggars, ain't got the sense god gave em."
    "Yea, pregnant at seventeen ain't anyone ever told them how that happens?"
    "Passing the baby around like it was a trophy."
    "We're gonna be paying for that baby's care you betcha."
    "Another lazy liberal muggar on welfare!"
    "Yea, shoulda stopped at four kids - they ain't got no damn sense."
    "Ok but how do we relay this to the masses what are the key words?
    "We can't say typical black dysfunctional family."
    "But we need to repeat, cast doubt, make him a real muggar."
    "Yea, we do it like we do with his name, we stress daughter-unmarried-pregnant."
    "Yea, and family, mix it in."
    "Yea, whenever he goes we mention if she is there."
    "yea, is whole family there."
    "If she is around we mention boyfriend and pregnant."
    "Yea, that's it."
    "Anyone know someone from her school who will comment negatively?"
    "We'll get on that."
    "Yea and stress Palin's children. They're in school, right?"
    "Yea, good students, good kids, note that, repeat it."
    "Yea."
    ....


    "White children, in the main, and whether they are rich or poor, grow up with a grasp of reality so feeble that they can very accurately be described as deluded--about themselves and the world they live in. White people have managed to get through their entire lifetimes in this euphoric state, but black people have not been so lucky: a black man who sees the world the way John Wayne, for example, sees it would not be an eccentric patriot, but a raving maniac." James Baldwin
    Wanna make America great, buy American owned, made in the USA, we do. AF Veteran, INFJ-A, I am not PC.

    "I have never made but one prayer to God, a very short one: 'O Lord make my enemies ridiculous.' And God granted it." Voltaire

    I wouldn't expect you to have actually read the thread and thus be aware of the previous discussions on that point, Liberace.

    I suggest that JPP not appease the Tech Overlords, that it go out in style, as a free mind free speech zone.
    This illegal illegitimate regime that runs America is at fault...not me.... they do not represent me and I have long objected to their crimes against humanity.

    Perhaps but the free usage of slurs discourage potential members from joining.
