**Monty** , I hope you can mine some of this crap for a cool new .sig… 😉

Wow. That took him a lot of time to code, and he still fucked up his spelling. Doh!

Isn’t it time for this thread to end?

Darth: Well, since it’s something DC concluded, it’s fairly obvious that it’s in error; therefore, I shan’t be using any of it for my sig line.

And his (her?) response to my pointing out that nobody’s making excuses is to quote another person who’s not exactly strong on coherence. The funny thing about the particular bit he (she?) quoted is that there hasn’t been any evidence released that Yee was providing information to terrorists nor any evidence released yet that Yee was trying to kill Americans.

A little angry there, aren’t we ? :eek:  
(perhaps a bit _paranoid_ also)

Your neanderthalean tactics might work against somebody else, but your feeble attempt at trying to lure me into some _trap_, whereby I would get banned is simply not going to work. I am aware that it is against the rules to accuse anybody of trolling here, so you can kindly take your prepubescent crap elsewhere.

You apparently have reading comprehension problems as well. The first mention of _“troll”_ by anybody in this thread was by you.

😃

Except for, you lying sack of shit, your use of the term troglodyte above.

BTW, fool, from where I sit, 'tis you who’s paranoid as you’re the one who’s been bitching about people not pissing on the Constitution.

Ah, I see we are still in pleasant spirits. How lovely. :o

**Troglodyte :**

\*a. A member of a fabulous or prehistoric race of people that lived in caves, dens, or holes.  
b. A person considered to be reclusive, reactionary, out of date, or brutish.

1. 

a. An anthropoid ape, such as a gorilla or chimpanzee.  
b. An animal that lives underground, as an ant or a worm.\*

If it was my intention to call you a \*\* \* troll\*\*\* , I would have. I don’t beat around the bush.

Look up the word next time before making an ass out of yourself.

You’re not even close to being smart or swift, Daisy Cutter. Basically, you’re just a bad liar. To boot, you’re also waffling away from what you’ve asserted because there’s no actual justification for your suggested course of action other than bigotry.

To sum up:

1. You’re the one who’s bitched about the government not targeting all Muslims in the miliitary & yet you accuse me of being paranoid.

2. You pull that lame stunt above with “troglodyte” and pretend you’re not accusing me of that which you’re accusing me.

Damn, you’re stupid. Not only that, you’re damn stupid.

**Monty** , you are wasting your time and demeaning yourself by exchanging any words with the **Daisy Cutter** creature. As the Humongous says in _The Road Warrior_\*, “Just walk away.”

You cannot teach this pig to sing.

This is to Mr. B and Diogenes the Cynic

I think that you might feel a bit differently about the situation if you had a son/daughter that was at gitmo or maybe the middle east serving his/her country. I can tell you that as a military member in the Air Force we value our privacy in certain matters and for good reason. I served 4 months in Qatar last september and I couldn’t have imagined how dangerous it could have been if things like our names, tent locations, or even daily routines were leaked to the wrong people. Anyone, muslim or not, that would defy an order that could potentially hurt his or her comrades,like documenting names and such, deserves to be thrown in prison for a while. I wouldn’t suggest death but they definitely need to be out of a position to further compromise their fellow airmen/soldiers/marines/seamen. The simplest information may not seem very harmful, but when small bits get leaked it can spell disaster for lots of men and women.
