CBEscapee: You have proven over and over again in this thread that you are a liar, a racist. Now you are proving that you are quite foolish. I’m done with you as I have much better things to do with my time than coddle those who delight in sheer ignorance. ---

And by the way, thanks for never giving me an answer. That just confirmed that you were talking out of your ass and are not really interested in anything except spewing out your drivel. Nice tactic. Makes you a target from Mexico, just a different kind than your compadre. jajajaja ---

See, you only respond when you think you’ve made a point. It’s like you calling people “gringo”, but then saying that’s not racist. **YR** brought the term into the thread, but he didn’t call anybody a racist. You, on the other hand, replied AS a racist. Why don’t you respond when the only 2 choices are to be wrong? I’ve asked you numerous times to answer a question, pointed it out numerous times, and you just ignore that. Then when you think you’ve made a piddling little point, you respond in a minute with your cutesy little Dick and Jane remark. But your reading comprehension isn’t anything to crow about, either that or you’re too stupid to comprehend “hypothetically”. Another post you conveniently decided to ignore since it made you look like an idiot yet again. I think the word is coward, in any language. You fit the bill well, wear it with pride. ---

Dude you are so seriously clueless if you think this board is populated by a bunch of blind mice following a government “right or wrong”. Take a look around, the US and it’s policies take boatloads of abuse from people right here. Some of them are the very ones calling you out in this thread. You came to the wrong place to generalize like that. You’re being flamed because you’ve lied, misdirected, dodged direct questions, ignored other direct questions and generally shown yourself to be a Grade A :wally There’s plenty of attacking the US and the actions of it’s citizens and government here.

> [@CBEscapee](#): > > Coward? I’ve been taking abuse from a bunch of close-minded assholes for 2 days now. I knew any criticism of the US or its citizens would open me up to flames. You ain’t seen flames. I promise you, you could have had 99% of this board on your side if all you wanted to do was criticize the the US Government or the Border Patrol in the handling of this situation. But you didn’t do that. You came in with a supposed pitting of **Clothahump** and ended up insulting the very posters who normally would have flocked to your side in droves. Your mind was the only one closed when you started this thread, since all gringos must think just like Clothahump. And you know what? That makes you a racist. When you unilaterally decide that all people must think like the one person you were pitting, that’s racist. You cry foul that **YR** first uttered the term, but from the very start, YOU are the one who behaved AS a racist. The use of the word “gringo” had little to do with it, your ATTITUDE is racist. And that is why, for 2 days, people have not flocked to your corner. The majority of people on this board certainly don’t condone this shooting, have no qualms about questioning the Goverment or the military. You would have thought that this would have been a blowout in your favor. But you exhibited the only thing that people here despise more…racism. So now you have your just desert. ---

Yeah, but when you stereotype all gringos, it’s still racist. And this response is so typical of what you have done all thread. You get your ass handed to you time and again, and your best comeback is some pedantic piddle. ---

> [@CBEscapee](#): > > No it’s not a tie. YR started the racist comments here. Actually, **CB** , you need go back to another time when you went to the racist card in [this thread.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=343241&page=1) On [post #114](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=6774496&postcount=114), I mentioned a term paper I did a long time ago when I was in college which was provacative (required by my teacher) and I chose to write about Annexing Mexico. **CB** replied with [post #118](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=6775695&postcount=118), pretty much calling me a racist, and then it went downhill from there with post #120, #122, #129, and so on until post #148. I could have sworn that **CB** has called me a racist in that thread, but now I do not see that post…I did report it (since it was in Great Debates and I referenced it on [post #144](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=6783597&postcount=144) ), so did it get deleted? I can’t tell. Anyways, that’s why my first post here in this thread was that all of us Americans are “racist” (in the eyes of **CB** )because we want illegal immigration reform.
