Wherein Der Trihs says the killed US Marines are an unworthy "bunch of thugs"

I’m NOT always wrong - I like pugs (we need a pug icon thing). Plus we’re both pro-gun and hate militiant anti-smokers, even if we slam the shit out of each other on other subjects.

Um, may have seemed implied, but I wasn’t going for your race. Unless we count Asshole-Fucktwits as a race. In which case I’ll lead the campaign to have you certified as King. Or Queen. Or whatever the fuck you are. You’re tiresome and and apparently a deflector for the Shithead this is supposed to be about.

Right Wingnut. My, you are original! :non-winking Wally

In the previous post I noticed “asshole” in a reply to me. Haven’t read it yet, and I’m sure it’ll generate a response, but for this moment, I can’t think of anything wrong with ya. On second thought, maybe I’ll wait till tomorrow to read the post. Why ruin a good thing? :smiley:

Why bring up Apartheid and “People like you”, then? I read it as an implication that I was a White holdover. Like I read monty’s first language remark as a racist thing too. I mean, I know I probably speak better English than him, I have that lovely BBC accent to prove it.

Are you accusing me of something sock-puppety here?

Well, about as original as you and monty changing my username, with the added benefit of not breaking any rules.

Yes, I understand. You see (er, look for) racism in any critique. We see that. Stop hammering the point home. I’m starting to feel embarrassed for you.

Let me clarify one more time, dumb-ass.

When I said “People like you” I was referring to your dumb-assedness.

Now read this carefully. Because I think the best way to make a point with your ilk is to make you go back and stick your nose in the pile of shit you left on the rug.

I never mentioned race. You did. Usually a tactic used when an argument is lost in a way that even calling an opponent a nazi isn’t enough.

I had no idea of your race until you brought it up. And even now all we know is you’re not a white cough European devil. But now that you make a point of it, I guess we should all bow to your supreme intellect since there is no arguing with true reason.

One more time. When I said ‘you people’, I meant dicks like you. I don’t give a shit what color your skin is. An asshole is an asshole.
Asshole.

Oh, I get this now. In the context of Apartheid, though, and coming from a person like you, I didn’t then. There, there, I don’t think you’re a racist. Is that better?

Right, “racist” and “Apartheid” have nothing to do with race, I just completely dragged the whole race thing out of thin air. Are you aware that other people can read your posts too?

I might have jumped the gun a bit, but it’s a complete fucking fallacy to pretend I did it because I was “losing” - I did it because somehow Apartheid and the past here were dragged in as somehow relevant to America’s empire-building. Or to tick me off. Either way, I still don’t see my arguments being attacked anymore. Guess I must be **really **losing.

Accusing me of being a racist is pretty entertaining, jackass.

I call’m like I see’m. Or how the fuck else am I supposed to take shit like

Hmmm…perhaps as a question. Last I checked, people of many races speak English, and speak it natively.

But I guess I should be happy that you just asininely called me a racist. After all, that’s nowhere near as bad as the crap you’re spouting about many other fine and decent people.

Sure, necessitated by the many times I’ve stumbled over my words and spelling, all the third-language phrasings I use and my complete lack of fluency. Or not.

Grow some balls and admit it was a personal dig.

Look here, you disgusting sack of crap. It was a personal dig and it had nothing to do with whatever your race is. I find you to be dishonest, unethical, and just generally a jerk.

…and here I thought it was just a simple question, that you were genuinely puzzled.

No, wait, I didn’t, 'cos yer a cunt and I could see you coming from a mile off…

There, there. I don’t think you are a racist anymore, either. Feel better?

How am I dishonest?
How am I unethical?
If I’m a jerk, report me.

Otherwise, shut the fuck up about me and argue my points, shit-for-brains.

Your postings in this thread and in your beloved Iraq thread more than indicate your dishonest use of the English language.

Those same postings also indicate you’re a complete stranger to the concept of ethics.

They also show you to be a penultimate jerk.

Happy now?

And for the moment, you’re the penultimate poster! Will it last? Let’s watch!
Just out of curiosity, who’s the last jerk, or is that TBD?

Just repeating the accusations proves nothing. I think you’re the dishonest one - certainly, you never came back to finish off the argument in that thread, and you’re trying the same bullshit tactic here.

If I’m a stranger to ethics, then my arguments should be trivial to pick apart. Yet all I’m hearing from you is “jackass”. I think you’re pissed because your favourite debate tactic doesn’t work on me. You don’t intimidate me, nor am I afraid of calling you a loudmouthed pussy.

Again, if I’m a jerk, report me. And why “penultimate”?

There, now I’m a little happier.

No, that would be a dishonest mischaracterization, and an abuse of the language.

There’s glory for you.

You have no concept of strategic thought, do you?

Also no idea what the NA stands for in NATO.

OK, so you have no grasp of rational or strategic thought. Would you care to post something stupid about something else and go for a trifecta?

He has achieved the trifecta. You think the bombing of Serbia or Gulf War I was solely at US discretion?

At least we know you are not a troll - you really are this stupid.

No, I am taking your “idea” at face value. It’s just that it is exceptionally stupid on its own.

Here’s hoping all the enemies of the US military are as dull-witted as you.

Shodan: Excellent post!

MrDibble: Peruse Shodan’s posting above. Key on the word dishonest and the expression abuse of the language. Your arguments are trivial to pick apart. That began with someone (who was that, btw?) pointing out your dishonest use of the word mercenary. You launched into (or perhaps continued) the Humpty Dumpty act there and are now presenting us with an encore of that act in this thread.

Gosh, let’s hope not: if the enemies of the US are dull-witted, and they’re still managing to fight the war to a standstill despite their overwhelming technological inferiority, then the US military must be run by exceptionally slow eggplants.

How so? Are you saying American Imperialism is a myth?

NO, that’s not it. I just think some things trump military arguments. But that’s 'cos my head isn’t up the military’s backside.

North Atlantic, what’s your point? Mine was, you have bases in other NATO countries, do any have bases in yours?

No, I don’t. I just said that all such actions should be. I can understand if that sentence was hard for you to parse. I’ll break it down for you:

The “like Serbia and GWI” qualifies the expression “police actions”, not the subsequent “not at sole US discretion” phrase. There, see, English is not so hard.

Done under international groups, I meant to say.
