64. Why such whining?
Edited on Thu Nov-13-03 06:02 PM by jurisglock
Good evening. I am a first-time poster here.

MrBenchley ... please see the URL below for a discussion of precisely that which seems to unnerve you so much.

(I apologize if you are offended by any of the imagery, but tough skin is something that RKBAers are known for.)

I do not yet have a theory for why we RKBAers tend to not volunteer for the same social activism that you advocate, other than the fact that we have no guilt over our own circumstances. Beyond that, I can't say. I can, however, offer up the following URL for an examination of someone who would be personally aware of racism in the RKBA crowd, but doesn't seem to find any.

I do wish that you would quit amplifying a small comment about the random appearances of individuals in Nazi uniforms from time to time, though. It disparages the rest of your potential argument. There are people who walk down the streets of the French Quarter in New Orleans dressed up like Nazis, Visigoths, Vikings, bikers, dominatrices and slaves, in their birthday suits, etc. as well, but these people receive no recrimination from the population as a whole. And why should they? Where is the First Amendment limited purely to fuzzy, cuddly sentiments?

Let those who feel so strongly about others' right to express themselves vocalize their feelings in a rational, logical fashion.

But when someone says they saw an ant and you first say that they saw an anthill, then that they saw a badger, then that they saw a gorilla, then that they saw Godzilla ... well, it just demonstrates the ludicrous nature of your other claims.
