I have an opinion-- one which grows and changes as I learn more information about the WI killings. I've shared it on Feelies and I've shared it here.

Yes, we did PM last night and I told you honestly how I felt about the way Grainne was being treated. Believe me me or don't, as is your right. But if you believe I am some sort of double agent for the group who is continuing to call her names, you are dead wrong.

I like you, Graystone, and while I disagree with some of your views, I think you're making a couple of good points about mob behavior-- regardless of what you think of me.

I've been named a moron before. Probably will again.

Let he who is without Stones cast the first sinner ...... and may i suggest Chuck (Moses) Heston, if he wants to work and you can afford him [and you're not O. Stone, don't think he'd want to kiss any of the guys in your flic] [on the other hand you never know, by all means videotape his reaction]

... 'respect', hmmm, that's such a subjective thing .... and here we are on Thread Morons, where all is plain, cut and dried, as neat and ordered as in maths and music .... but look, let's make an objective deal - you respect my four aces palindrome here, and i'll think about it -g- ..... cheers

Obligatory Moron Nomination - anybody who takes stuff seriously on a thread called Thread Morons

Did you really think that I was having a pleasant background conversation in PM's with you last night?

I found this particular exchange to be very amusing. I expect to see another nomination by you very very soon.

From reading further about the California Christian teacher, it sounds like he was trying to pummel his students with whatever references to Christianity and God he could find. Fifth grade history is not mostly about God.

Is grainne jumping to conclusions based on flimsy newsreports?

Message 20806287
You are the second here to refer to further news about this situation, and the second to do so without links to such news. I am all for preventing indoctrination of our kids by teachers - EITHER FOR OR AGAINST religion - but I object to the rush to condemn this teacher based on speculation without evidence. So if you have some, please share it.

Oh, but someone calls her on it....

Message 20806289
What I was talking about is towards the bottom of post #89731. I would add that I have no proof and am just using logic and my own intuition. Thank goodness I'm not using my diplomatic skills (joke).

OMIGOD!!! she is using her intuition without any proof!!! Are you going to send her some bling bling, whatever the hell that is?

I wonder if she sees the parallels between her statement about the deer and the hunters and this.

Are you actually advocating murdering "doctors and counselors who encourage this procedure?" (abortion)

The part that I like is now you are putting Poet in a mob that I supposedly lead and control. I assure you that any contempt that she showed you in private, toward me, is sincere.

The other part that is funny is that you think that I lead or control anyone.

I'm guessing that you are a big fan of Philip K Dick.
