WATE Sound off Forum
Well, after spending a few hours on the local WATE sound off forum I was treated with some NeoCon hospititality. I was promptly asked to leave for voicing an opinion that differed from the NeoCon talking points. All because I posted the definition of a sociopath. I didnt accuse anyone of being one, I was merely showing the similarities in their behaviors.

It was a discussion about the death penalty and how they believed we should do away with due process and prisons and just shoot the criminals in the back of the head. I pointed out that that kind of attitude is similar to the way a sociopath thinks. (The scary part was that the one who said we should just shoot criminals was a police officer) Its hard to make connections and network in an area where unless your a NeoCon you should just keep your mouth shut. At least I can come here and find people that have similar beliefs and discussions without name calling, trolling post etc... (all of which went on WATE's Forum) It's ok though. I just wanted to give people the heads up before they decided to go and check it out.

Thank God its an election year.

2. You Too
Look at it on the bright side, at least they asked you to leave, they just kicked me off. WBIR is the same way.
