Now I don’t approve of bombs in Olympic Parks, abortion clinics, or gay bars. Nevertheless, this is a good opportunity for Diogenes and quietman1920 to ponder what the victims might have done to provoke Rudolph’s rage. They should ask themselves: Why does Rudolph and his ilk hate me? While his methods are inexcusable, Diogenes and quietman1920 might find Rudolph has some legitimate grievances.
[\Sanctimonious sarcastic GoHeels]
For the record, my feelings toward Rudolph himself, not to mention his actions, are in 100 percent agreement with the two posters I mentioned.
Oh, come on GoHeels I can’t think of the slightest thing that Alice Hawthorne might have done to Eric Rudolph.
Oh, well maybe that an African-American woman would dare attend an event at the Olympic Park? That should be more than enough grievance to explain Rudolph’s rage. :rolleyes:
What states did all of these crimes occur? And, which ones have the death penalty?
I’m torn between him being locked away in solitary for the rest of his life, allowing no visitors/mail or just putting him in a small room with about twenty home made bombs like he made and let them all go off…one…by…one.
Would that be Gordon Kahl? He was a North Dakota farmer who murdered two US Marshalls in 1983. He went on the lam for several years before he was finally killed in a shootout with federal law enforcent. He was hidden and abetted all that time by the locals. He was a member of Posse Comitatus, an anti-government, whacko, militia group.
I lived in North Dakota for years. My wife is from rural North Dakota. There is definitely a lot of anti-government sentiment up there and Kahl is still regarded as a folk hero by many (my brother-in-law for one).
however, the “asked you nicely” referred to when I (in my mind) asked you nicely to not put words in my mouth. See, this would be another example of that.
I can think of about 4 or 5 occasions where (in my mind) I lost my temper w/other posters. Your biggest clue would be if the word “fuck” appears minimally 4 times per sentence. ALso, if the post ends in “fucking fuck”.
My conjecture of why Rudolph would bomb the Atlanta Olympics,(having lived in the South, with some experience with White Supremacist diatribe);
:::The Olympics fosters multi-cultural activities, parading a mixing of races, and showcases Negroes and Commies as being superior to White American people, by their triumph in athletic events. This is not to be tolerated; another example of the Great White Race being humiliated at the hands of the Evil Liberal Jew media. To have it brought to the South, in Atlanta,which the Yankees scorched in order to bring down the Free South means WAR again’! Man’s gotta do what a Man’s gotta do…:::
Well, you get that fucked-up picture. To some minds, the world has gone to Hell if it condones activities beyond their small scope of vision. So, bomb 'em, take 'em out, infidels! The Chosen Us will be favored and prevail!
I’m Buddhist, so am biting my tongue wif compassion as to what Heaven that action holds.
To be fair, it might not have been my best idea to place a sarcastic post on this thread. After 9/11, I heard similar “Yes, but…” types of arguments that were definitely not sarcastic from some of my friends - I considered these arguments highly offensive. I wanted to highlight the ridiculousness of the “Yes, but…” argument by posting it in a sarcastic manner on this thread, when the villain in question acted against so-called “progressive” targets (women’s clinic, gay bar).
