*chuckles* Now kids, let's play the "what ideology does preslove adhere to" game.
Woohoo! Let's make more Terrorists by killing random Muslims! Go America!
I fail to see how this will help anything. They did the same thing to Samarra recently and there were major attacks on police there today. Razing Fallujah will just entrench the insurgents, freedom fighters, or whatever you call them, in the rubble. GO AMERICA!
I heard on the radio this morning about some Iraqi brigade fighting with the G.I.s that went from 500 troops down to 150. Heh, 350 more armed terrorists/insurgents/thus/freedom fighter/assholes with AK's roaming the street. GO AMERICA!
Ditto. It's nice to see we have judges who still respect our Constitution and the rule of law.
Well they won't for long. Bush has 4 years of appointments to make.
You wouldn't be trying to shut up someone who disagreed with you, now would you?

If the unbanning is pyonir approved, that's good as gospel to me.

Unban the OK bastard!

so you think being arbitrary and capricious is the way to go?

there should be some kind of balance.

i think it is too bad what happened, but if you have never been on the other side of the fence, it might not be so obvious that running a forum with an iron fist makes less work for the mods

as i said, it is now a moot point, too late to fix it

No.

But, don't argue with people who feel they have a morally superior position. It's not worth your time. They'll never change.

Starting? I think we are well into it. About time for this to get moved/locked.

I'm not trying to convince the mods one way or the other. I just happen to think they were justified, and don't understand what basis the "unban" crowd is working from.

We happen to think it was unjustified. Simple as that.

Oh. Well, shoot. Now I'm convinced!

UNBAN SHINERBURKE!!!

:confused:

Link to the post he was given the vacation in?


theyve all been deleted. id have to read the threads to make a solid decision, but the threads being deleted seems trite and if the mods are right/justified, why delete the threads?

there is plenty of mod hypocrisy, not just in p&n. ive seen thread locks/banning here for things plenty of other posters get away with. p&n is crazy, and mostly liberal elitists telling conservative dumbfvckistanis and/or christians theyre idiots. good thing personal attacks are against the rules.:roll:

but its just the internet, not the end of the world.
