Hey, fuck nut, did you happen to do a little research before going to White Settlement? You think it is possible that a prominent town citizen or founder had the last name White?

Actually I get kind of a chuckle out of sick humor sometimes. Though I think the ad is in poor taste and certainly shouldn’t have been displayed.

I don’t understand the anger over this billboard. The message I get from it is that the “Devil” gave McVeigh a lethal injection, and now McVeigh is in hell. So?

I personally was extremely offended when PETA used an image of Rudolph Gulliani without his permission on a billboard that said “Got Prostate Cancer?”  
[http://www.milksucks.com/prostate.html](http://www.milksucks.com/prostate.html) (near bottom right)

I was offended by the fake “Got Milk” ad because they were using a man who has a possibly fatal disease to make their point (without permission). Why exactly did the McVeigh ad offend?

OK, my point was not clearly stated I guess.

* * *

Hypothetical example:

Let’s say you have a law. You criticize other countries for not having this law, often brutally and even use sanctions and murder (war) to make your point. Let’s say you are so disgusted by their lack of this law that you view them as “rogue states” and bandits.

## Then someone takes your law to it’s logical limits and everyone is disgusted again.

I’m not saying anyone wants in abollished, but if you’re going to kill people in the name of an idea, leave it the FUCK alone when someone simply takes advantages of the world-wide discourse you have established on the topic.

I think you were fairly clear the first time and Matt was wrong to infer that you thought the OP wanted said billboard banned. Your initial one sentence post did not say that. You attempt at clarification, however, has left me confused.

I suppose I’m not too sure what I’m meant to take from it when someone says, “Freedom of expression [is] nice to love when it suits you,” then.

For what it’s worth, I wasn’t aware that either LC or myself had “killed people in the name of an idea” or had “brutally [criticized] and use[d] sanctions and murder to make [our] point” about anything. I don’t even live in the same country where McVeigh was executed. So I’m still unclear as to your point.

I don’t find th e image itself so offensive, but I can’t find words for how tacky I think it is to use anything to do with the Oklahoma City tragedy to sell something. My reaction would be completly different if the picture were on a poster or something.

Crass commercialization of a hotly debated social issue, an event marred by obvious failure of the judicial proceedings behind it, even with the public scrutiny given it because of its sheer heinousness.

Always a winner.

Hell, we should set one up opposite with a grinning John Hinckley standing over a prone Ronald Reagan, obviously gasping for breath while foamy blood spews out the hole in his shirt. Freedom of speech, after all.

Didn’t mean to disparage the fine folks of Greenville.

In a round about way, by way always, I was only trying to point out the futility of using signs seen as a sign of all.

Well, the fact that those sugar frosted starch toroids with preformed aerated quasioleaginous syrup nuggets are sold by a **Leprechaun** and not an elf, sort of ruins the whole effect. An elf with a brogue just doesn’t click over on the old suspension-of-disbelief-o-meter.

WTF is it with radio stations in Texas? I mean, between the McVeigh thing and the [Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake died in a car accident](http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/eo/20010619/en/britney-justin_hoaxsters_fired_1.html) thing, I’m starting to think that they’re all a bunch of sick fucks.
