Pitbull and Seriously have been using libtard as the de facto designation for liberals in this thread. This has been mentioned to Pitbull on a few occassions but he continues to do it because apparently every liberal is a libtard in his view - so take it up with him.
Really? Some heavy "feels" exhibited and some twisting of posts out of context there. Sorry I made you feel guilty. I apologise profusely.

I have stopped using it because liberal means very different things to different people.
Both Ron Paul and Bernie Sanders would call themselves liberal.


I simply prefer commie scum. :p
."Libtard" or "liberal"?

Sounds a hell of a lot more manly than setting your own country's ship on fire and turning traitor at the very first opportunity ... as someone who actually did go to the Vietnam war did and got lauded as a hero.
Ok, ok not sure what this refers to - you are welcome to enlighten me - please just keep it at credible sources. #noalexjones

Libtard.


Contrary to the 1000s pages of debates on politics, I don't think people here are that politically different if you unbundle policy from party.
That's like saying that if you remove all the beliefs from doctrine that people are religiously the same.

I said people here on mybb, not the general population

It is a tech forum on the internet.

I just wonder and imagine what Cray and cerebus would comment about the sizeable 2000+ men Honduras "caravan", kids and all, moving towards the USA border.
Wonder what they think Trump should do or not do.
Can't wait for the liberal travesty already

I take your point, but I still disagree vehemently.

Post # 5815
That doesn't prove your point by any means. Pitbull is certainly insulting some liberals with the libtard epithet, but I do the same. I can still draw a distinction between the two and I don't think all liberals are libtards. In the same way, I can draw a distinction between someone whose political views lie on the left and a "leftist". I know you don't want to hear it, but I still consider myself to be on the potlical left.

It seems that you're presenting your opinions as fact again?

And I can't help but notice what Pitbull said in post #5813. You got caught out at your old MO again.

This new tactic needs to be faced head on. Shoot the lot of them, warn them and shoot the fark out of them if they don't listen. Send a clear message now that it will never be tolerated and save loads of other innocent lives who will follow this if such a precedent is set.

I said apparently....that is the impression I got from dealing with him, he is welcome to correct this assumption.

I have called people liberals in here too. Not all liberal issues pushed by Liberals deserves the term libtards for their actions.

Whow, (Pitbull and Seriously as well) I am really out of my league here with this high quality discussion - please display the merits of your discussion with even more names - I panic when you call me these names and labels! You've got me cornered now. LOL

BTW I do describe myself as liberal - as the word says it is about freedom of thought and coupled with that progress.

Firstly, thank you for posting an intelligible question that can be answered.

Do you think Trump's response is warranted? Is there any evidence that there are Middle Eastern criminals in their numbers? If so, there should absolutely be military action taken to prevent them from entering the country. If not, I'd suggest that it's maybe not the crisis that Trump is hyping it up to be.

From all available evidence, it looks like a group of fairly benign mostly Honduran and Mexican immigrants. I think they should be processed and treated like any other would-be immigrant. I can't see anything to suggest that they pose an existential threat to Americans but it's certainly a humanitarian crisis.

Yes because it was plainly obvious as to whom you were insinuating about.

Who else gets blamed for the Forrestal fire and is called a traitor?

Your post was intellectually dishonest.
I didn't name the fire either, and yet you correctly identified Insane McCain ;)
