2minkey's two favorite words are Identity Politics yet it seems to be lost on him how much he is also guilty of engaging in such. The guy routinely defames whole demographics here. He is an intellectual lightweight and hides this behind juvenile drive by postings. As much as Choking_Hazard is a misguided self-described socialist, he will argue his points, for pages even. He's dead wrong but does try to convince people. I can at least respect that. 2minkey will do a drive-by of the same points, then deny he's a socialist/communist. He really believes we won't notice.

TY...my avatar was fixed by a member here after I asked in the team forum. I can't associate a screen name with an email addy, so I'll leave it to him/her to step up.
I had multiple offers, but I screwed up my original avatar beyond repair. I thank all who offered. I'm somewhat computer illiterate. The pups are Ammo (mine to the right,male) and Jaeger (my daughter's). Brother and sister. 19 Months old. And damned good waterfowl and upland dogs. Again, Ty to whoever offered help. |

It seems like I have to explain it to you the same way I did to my kids when they were little: Just because he said or did something you didn't like doesn't give you the right to punch Billy in the face. YOU are in control of YOUR actions and it doesn't matter what someone else did. Pointing at the other guy, hopping up and down and yelling "but he was mean to me!" doesn't absolve you of YOUR conduct. It's hard to believe I have to explain this to grown-ups. At some point though Billy is going to say something to somebody and get punched in the face, and everyone else who knows Billy, knows he adds nothing of value to the school yard, knows he does nothing but talk shit, who have resisted the urge to punch Billy in the face under the same circumstances will see it and say "Billy finally got what was coming to him". |

Billy may have gotten what was coming to him, but little Johnny will have been expelled from school all the same. |

2minkey's two favorite words are Identity Politics yet it seems to be lost on him how much he is also guilty of engaging in such. The guy routinely defames whole demographics here. He is an intellectual lightweight and hides this behind juvenile drive by postings. Nailed it. I don't think it's lost on him, he's smart enough to know what he's doing. He LIKES being that way. |

And the guy that punches him is still going to get suspended and pay to get Billy's teeth fixed. |

In Georgia, Billy can be arrested for fighting words.  |

In Arizona too if he used the Internet to upset the opposite party.

Arizona law makes it a crime for any person to harass another person and includes harassment done via electronic means (such as telephone, the Internet, social media sites, texting, email, instant messages, or other similar means).
Under Arizona law, bullying and cyberbullying are referred to as harassment and threatening or intimidating another person. Arizona law defines harassment as conduct directed at a specific person that would cause a reasonable person to be “seriously alarmed, annoyed or harassed” and that, in fact, does have that effect on the person targeted. (Ariz. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 13-2921.) |

It's funny how one person can drive you crazy and yet, it's so easy to just ignore another. Dave_A used to drive people I-n-s-a-n-e, but I scrolled right on by him without a second thought - same with 2minkey. I don't know what it is, but I've just decided that I don't care what he posts and move on. But yet, there's someone else here that really get on my nerves. Strange. I thought you liked me.
Look. I'm trying. That's the best I can do. |

The ignore button exists for a reason, folks. Please use it. 2minkey is going to troll this thread until there are more locks. You can count on it. And he will be the one hitting the report button. I sort of get the feeling that 2Minkey is either quite close to Ed Murray...or he is a certain gun shop owner in Seattle.
