The hypocrites

Tolerance, free speech, respect for others. These are virtues that are preached endlessly by the left but seldom practiced.

Case in point, yet another political sign has been stolen from my yard. It said "Illegal immigration is a crime" and has been up for quite some time.

So because someone was upset about me exercising my right to post something they felt that they could commit theft.

These people are cowards, intellectual and otherwise. I have reported this theft.

I feel sorry for people who think that it's ok to commit crimes because they don't like someone's point of view, the point of view being that people shouldn't commit crimes. Well, the lawbreakers stick together I guess.

Well, Daniel, you and I know it's not a "crime" if your cause is "just." This rationale is used every day by the libs and illegals to excuse and promote anarchy, ignoring their own intellectual bankruptcy.

Daniel, Lars interviewed some clown on his program today that said that because a law ins "unjust" he shouldn't have to obey it. Some one apparently decided that your right to display your sign was "unjust" so he took it. What's wrong with that? I think that the tax codes are "unjust" so I'm not going to obey them. What's wrong with that? I don't think the IRS is going to agree with me, though.

The guy Lars was talking to was an idiot. So was the guy who took your sign. And I would be if I didn't go along with the IRS laws.

Bear is right. Liberals and the anarchists are dead wrong. Even Anonymous, the ultra-liberal pontificator. And Roger Doger, and all the rest of the illegal-loving pinheads out there.

Daniel, I am glad that you think these people are intellectual. Are you?

Daniel said...

Intellectual cowards. And no I'm not, I'm perfectly willing to debate anyone on this issue and I use facts, data and logic to support my position.

Bah ha ha ha. Whaaaaaa. Quite wasting the Sherwood police department's time. I imagine they are going to work overtime trying to find who stole your little bigot sign.

Oh, for heaven's sake. Tolerance, free speech, respect for others. I'm not sure where you've been getting your information recently, but you won't find them in many conservative 2006-campaign slogans, either. Let me remind you that we are being told, by the most powerful men and women in our federal government, that simply talking about having possibly made a mistake - i.e. a violation of the fourth Constitutional Amendment - brings "aid and comfort" to the "enemy."

Following that logic, Daniel, all of your posts here criticizing the state and governor of Oregon for throwing open your doors to illegal aliens are acts of treason. Never mind that mistakes should be, you know, fixed - showing weakness is the beginning of the end! Mexican laborers wouldn't have even the slightest idea that they can get an Oregonian driver's license if you hadn't leaked it. How dare you.

Et cetera, et cetera.

So I don't really have even the slightest idea how you can say the crippling of the First Amendment is a unique failing of the left. Nobody is protecting our rights.

Hey, celery, we don't have to know what "getting high" means. We just have to read one of your posts. Your spaceship overshot its mark. You're on the wrong planet, kid.

Daniel said...

Kaelri, I'm not sure what your point was. Is it ok for people to steal? Or just to steal from me?

Kaelri said...

Daniel: You opened your post by implying, not unexpectedly, that intolerance, censorship and disrespect are the unique traits of "the left." My intent was to remind you that things aren't much different right now on the other end of the axis. That is all.

(The fact that I'm not a proponent of stealing ineffectual lawn signs is not something of which I should have to waste time reassuring you.)

REMINDER: Come to Salem School Board MTG. Tues. 11th @ 6 pm.

ELL, Bi-Lingual & ESL are NOT working.
We are wasting tens of Millions a year and the Kids are NOT passing tests.

Tell the Board we all want Structured English Immersion.
When Salem starts to use this and they get the usual GREAT results, then the rest of the State will follow.

Can't make it, but curious?
Watch it live @ www.cctvsalem.org

Most of the second paragraph was sarcasm, if that helps.

Daniel said...

Suomynoma, a sense of humor! I like that. Fa la la la la la la...

Do what my friend did when his Bush lawn signs kept geting stolen. He got a 4' x 8' one and put it up on his roof.

Example number two, what happens when you give rednecks an ideology -- they make the neighborhood property values plummet.
