12 murders because of a PENCIL, simply senseless

[Phantom]

I had not read the altered "quote" until just now.
The original post did not mention "JEWS" as it was altered to do so and has mislead others to view a fellow member in a different light that he did not deserve. If you don't like a post IGNORE IT! We don't need this type of crap, just agree to disagree. I only ask that everyone act your age NOT your shoe size. There is nothing wrong with having a little fun at each others expense, I'm the biggest GOOFBALL on here, but please not in these type of conversations.

I started this post to have an intelligent dialogue between us, reading different views is what I sought.

I've gone back and cleaned up the thread. taxfree4, please accept my apologies

It's not that simple, when someone is trying to alter your words to convey that you are something you're not, you have to respond. This is supposed to be a forum for adults to exchange ideas and opinions and not adolescent little girls who can only respond with emotional hissy fits, sans intellect. If we are adults let's act like it and keep the discussion from disintegrating to this schoolyard bullshit.



No need to apologize, thank you Phantom, now let's continue what was a very spirited exchange.

taxfree4, please accept my apologies

And mine as well.
I didn't know another member had butchered your original post.
Not funny or cool.

Sometimes you have to pause having fun and respond to the horrific events that are the topic of every newscast and most conversations, this is not just a French problem. Maybe if the French Military used F6B's, pulling a gunner with a 50 caliber, to patrol those neighborhoods it would ease the locals and scare the terrorists. I think I tied it all in. No apologies needed bigbird and no hard feelings, even to Scotrun, anyone can have a bad moment, I know that all too well.

And I agree.

So did Scotrod's freedom of speech get blown up? Is he Charlie?

Oh my???


Again----what does this have to do with motorcycles?

[taxfree4]

To end this that wasn't a comparison or freedom of speech, it was plagerism within direct quotes. And, yes, to handle this you must handle the terrorists like Israel does, military occupation combined with excellent counter intelligence is the only solution. The cops alone can't handle it, as was demonstrated when the terrorist assassinated that poor French cop, already wounded on the ground, who put his hand up as a last sign of desparation before the trigger was pulled.

I started this thread asking why this senseless act?

Post #9 (It has to do with humanity)
I stated in respect to our fellow French F6B members,

"We stand united, we feel your pain. We are all Charlie"

The altered post was misleading and unfortunately it worked, causing another member to react incorrectly.
Wether it was satire or not, it was a false quote and merited its removal.

I have no dog in this fight. I have no Muslim friends nor do I have Jewish friends. I find this exchange entertaining. Nearly 2 billion people are judged by the action of a few hundred or thousands

What Scotrod did was simply change the group from Muslim to Jews and suddenly it is a horrible thing to say those words. His post is deleted because it offended---kind of like a French magazine offends in the name of humor. I think that's ironic--- and true.


A little known fact is that Germany never had more than 33% of the population belonging to the Nazi party and yet we think of all Germans of the 1930-1940s as being the worst of humanity

Here is my message----Judge the person and not the group. Now that everybody's thinking and angry, I will enjoy that fact. it never hurts to wear somebody else's shoes for a while.

You are missing the point, his post was deleted because it was a FALSE representation of another quote/member, it triggered incorrect assumptions which in turn caused another member to smear undeservingly the non-offending member.

If you guys want to wrongfully piss off your fellow riders .... there are several motorcycle websites where that is their primary sport. I prefer to keep this website without any of the BS. I'm not perfect nor will I be able to please everyone.

Please remember that if you have not paid your membership dues to this website ... and your post is deleted don't expect a refund.

Please .... let's stick to the thread topic. Thanks
