For someone who doesn’t like saying it, you sure say it an awful lot.

Here’s a free clue - constantly repeating the slurs here isn’t the best way. One iteration of “someone called me an old nigger” is one thing, peppering your post with it is…another.

Sure. That’s why you went to all the trouble to point out how nice Westerners don’t do wartime rapes anymore…which must be such a relief to Abeer Qassim Hamza and her family. You know, if her First World soldier rapists hadn’t killed them all.

It’s nice to be valued.

Where did I say ELIMINATED? I’m well aware rape of female soldiers by USA soldiers goes on, I do read the news. If this is the incident you cite I don’t doubt it:

> **[Mahmudiyah rape and killings](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahmudiyah_killings#Victims)**
>
> The Mahmudiyah rape and killings were war crimes involving the gang-rape and murder of 14-year-old Iraqi girl Abeer Qassim Hamza al-Janabi and the murder of her family by United States Army soldiers on March 12, 2006. It occurred in the family's house to the southwest of Yusufiyah, a village to the west of the town of Al-Mahmudiyah, Iraq. Other members of al-Janabi's family murdered by American soldiers included her 34-year-old mother Fakhriyah Taha Muhasen, 45-year-old father Qassim Hamza Raheem...

If you think I’m some USA we’re number 1 poster you are way off base.

Reading it isn’t participating. You come off like you just want to start stuff. Requests for clarification or context go unanswered. Reasoned opinions receive no response.

Can you see why that might be a tad tiresome?

When you said “It seems it is only the USA and other first world countries where this is punished harshly where it has\*\* died out\*\*” If “died out due to harsh punishment” isn’t “elimination”, you may need an English refresher course. It would be useful for the rest of us if it also included a module on what is and isn’t outright vile language to use on message boards…

Yea I apologize to anyone who wanted either of those and did not receive it, yes I know that is essentially meaningless but I am serious in the apology.

Any thread of mine anyone replied to, you can be confident I read, even if I did not personally reply to.

The USA can’t even stop 100% of the rape of it’s female soldiers , am I supposed to believe it has stopped 100% of the rape of female civilians?

If you don’t believe it, maybe you should stop saying it, then?

You gotta be the biggest jerkwad on this board. Fucking inbred jerkwad. That’s our **grude**. Your threads are like Tourette’s syndrome attacks.

ETA: And who gives one single fuck if you are still reading threads that you start and then abandon? Is that supposed to mean something? Fucking participate in the brain garbage you subject everyone else to.

In all honesty, I think there was some meat to his “Trinidad nigger” thread.

Really? Can you point me to some source (other than **grude** ) that can confirm that it’s common for folks in Trinidad to refer to someone eating on a park bench as “old nigger” behavior?

Thanks.
