More shit from the Nigger-in -chief

U.S. Rep. Paul Broun is again raising the specter of Democrats turning the United States into a totalitarian state.
Broun, R-Athens, apparently has not changed his belief that President Obama may be a fascist since he made similar remarks in Augusta in November and then in an Associated Press interview.
He told a meeting of the Morgan County Republicans on Wednesday night that Obama already has or will have the three things he needs to make himself a dictator: a national police force, gun control and control over the press.
"He has the three things that are necessary to establish an authoritarian government," Broun said. "And so we need to be ever-vigilant, because freedom is precious."
As he did when comparing Obama to Hitler and the Soviets last year, Broun cited a speech Obama gave in Colorado during the campaign last July calling for "a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded" as the military.
In the speech, Obama called young Americans to serve both at home and abroad, and said he would expand the Peace Corps, AmeriCorps and other volunteer opportunities. Broun, however, said Obama was referring to a national police force.
"'The liberals say, 'What is wrong with Americorps?' " Broun said. "Well, this is not Americorps."
Broun also said he thinks the national media is openly supporting Obama's policies. He also said he believes the president and Attorney General Eric Holder will enact new gun-control policies.
Holder said in February that he wants to renew a Clinton-era ban on assault weapons, but Obama said in April that he is putting the issue on the back burner.
Broun also cited the dozens of so-called "czars" Obama has appointed to oversee areas like the troubled car industry as evidence that he is overstepping his bounds to seek power.
"They're developing a shadow government that (does not) answer to the American people," Broun said.
At a town hall meeting in Clarkesville last month, Broun called Obama, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid a "socialistic elite" and agreed with a constituent who said they might use a flu pandemic to declare martial law.
"They're trying to develop an environment where they can take over," Broun said. "We've seen that historically."
More than 1,000 people combined turned out to hear Broun speak mostly on the topic of health care at town hall meetings Wednesday in Madison and Greene County.
About 300 attended the Madison meeting. At Lake Oconee, the audience filled three 300-seat movie theaters, where Broun spoke on the invitation of three local doctors who have been giving presentations on Democrats' proposals for health care reform, said Bob Cowles, one of the organizers. Broun spoke live in one theater, while crowds in the other two listened in over a closed circuit.
Health care reform also is about Democrats seeking more power, Broun said.
"It gives them more power, more control over your life," he said.
Health care is too expensive, he said, and he attributed the cost to government regulations like HIPPA, a 1996 patient privacy and insurance portability law. Rather than create a government-run insurance program to compete with private insurers, the current system's framework should be kept, but with changes like expanded tax-free health savings accounts, more tax credits for medical expenses and tax breaks for doctors who provide charity care, Broun said.
"Just like (when) you have a dog with fleas, you don't kill the dog, you put on a flea collar," he said.

Re: Ban this guy?
Wed, September 23, 2009 - 11:01 AMthis is one of those cases where you need contact each moderator. TOU. first of all, is ineffectual. There have been many things much more offensive brought to their attention, and they did nothing. They will tell you to tell the moderator of the tribe/s in question. -

Re: Ban this guy?
Thu, September 24, 2009 - 2:13 AMHe was banned. However, he continues to spew racist hatred, misogyny, homophobia, etc. on other tribes. -

Re: Ban this guy?
Thu, September 24, 2009 - 2:56 AMthey always do. sometimes its good to moderate with an axe, but others do not agree with me.
oh well, i don't have to deal with them. -

No can do. yet.
Thu, September 24, 2009 - 5:17 AMAs I've understood it, though they have his numbers (literally) Tribe doesn't currently have the resources to superban this douche, that plus the fact of the new TOU being "moderator beware" does make it highly likely this assbag Gregg/d'zoner/whoever he is today, will continue to spew his same racist agitprop all over tribe. Take some comfort in the fact that he digs himself deeper every day he frenzies more. Take screen caps when you see things, report anything actionable to the authorities. Add to the file. He has the self control of a gnat. He'll get himself renditioned soon enough. I'm sure tribe would gladly cooperate with Homeland Security if they need data access.
He's a M-F 9-5 assbag, just log on after 5, or on the weekends and you'll avoid a dialog. Don't engage, you won't get backsplatter. Too bad we can't call his employer and report him for misusing his company's by posting racist screeds on the net during work hours. Prolly means he's too poor or stupid to have a home computer. So he's probably working in a basement somewhere unimportant, blaming minorities for his own inability to get an erection. His postings reveal serious emotional insecurities. He has over time claimed to be ex-military, rich, a martial artist, and bizarrely enough, sometimes even a 14 year old girl. Not sure what drives that one, besides maybe some attempt to come to terms with his own physical inadequacies. Klannies are wierd.
But I digress.

when/where did Tribe admin say they would do that? -

Re: No can do. yet.
Sat, September 26, 2009 - 10:23 AMDomestic terrorists must be an exception to the "hands off" rule. I has a PM sumwhere. The capability to permaban doesn't exist yet on tribe, but I gathered from what I heard it was in the works. I imagine he's already in line for the beta. Though I am inclined to let himself frenzy to the point where he can actually be arrested before he pulls a McVeigh. Let's just all keep the SS updated on his latest, dumbest and most cowardly escapades. -

yes, i know perma-ban doesn't exist here
i guess in answer to my question you are saying Tribe admin told you
in a PM that they are working that into the next release? -

Re: Ban this guy?
Thu, September 24, 2009 - 11:25 PM<------Agrees with Flint.
Is there a link to his profile? I have seen d'zoner but not for a while. I dont prefer to be on tribes that are always full of the negative bullshit. Some people should be banned I think. People talk about freedom of speech and censorship or whatever. I agree to a point. Then when some people go way too far just to push peoples buttons and it becomes pointless why should they be allowed to continue? If someone is constantly spewing hate and racist shit why the hell should everyone else have to put up with their littering of the tribe? They've given up their "rights" or priviledge to be on the tribe.

Sat, September 26, 2009 - 12:08 AMBan Ron?
Gosh; seems a little harsh - but the whole "hackers made me invite the insane racist hatemonger into POLI, no really" debacle is a little see-through and inappropriate; you're right about that. Just because Ron nurtures odd warmth for the worst kind of racism isn't cause for a banning, though, surely. Light BDSM, let's try first. -

Re: Ban this guy?
Sat, September 26, 2009 - 2:47 PMThis was about Gregg, or whatever alt he's posing as today. Personally, I don't think what he posted should be censored. But,. it was against the TOU. Tribe is a private organization. -
-
Re: Ban this guy?
Sun, September 27, 2009 - 10:54 AMSo you *don't* think Gregg should be banned?
That would let Ron breath easy, fshure -
-
Re: Ban this guy?
Sun, September 27, 2009 - 11:05 AMNope. But I'm not the moderator. As long as they are consistent, they can do whatever they wish. I quit the Politics tribe until Inna left. She was inconsistent. So far, Ron has not been, his politics aside. I left the Mideast Politics tribe because Carolyn was. When she left, I rejoined, then Inna became moderator, so I was out of there again. I left another politics tribe that I liked very much because the moderator thought my replies to Salil's ad hominems were mean, and deleted them. I actually still like the guy (the moderator). I just won't waste my time posting on a forum where my posts are deleted arbitrarily. Freedom of speech includes the freedom to offend. -
-
Re: Ban this guy?
Sun, September 27, 2009 - 11:16 AM>>Freedom of speech includes the freedom to offend.<<
absolutely.
however, there is no 'freedom of speech' on private online forums
not sure why some people don't/won't get that. -
-
Re: Ban this guy?
Sun, September 27, 2009 - 12:53 PM>>Freedom of speech includes the freedom to offend.<<
and the freedom to remove myself or another from following me around to offend. I don't nessisarily think one has a right to be offensive. One can take the right, but i don' t know that anyone is entitled to one. We are not free to just smack the persons we can't stand, so i don't know why offensive would get a larger billing in the entitlement dept. Both are violent acts towards another. So, in america, under the name of freedom, not everything actually is a right, no matter how one would like to twist it to make it permissible. Freedom of speech really was not implying you have the right to just offend someone cause you can. We the people unofficially appended our interpretation to include gratuitous and offensive talking acceptable. Just because the definition of something can be stretched to cover most anything one would say, that does not mean that is what was meant when it was made a law. It would be different i an individual was defending their right to look in a mirror and offend themselves. Anyway, no one cares. -

Re: Ban this guy?
Tue, September 29, 2009 - 9:14 PMHe made a tribe about planning to assassinate the president. That's no longer free speech. That's domestic terrorism. You can say "I hate him", and "he a nazi", but "when you say let's kill him" that's a threat. Which is a crime. We have a domestic terrorist using tribe. I do hope y'all appreciate the distinction and the distinct change in tenor this occasions in regards to the response.

Hmm. So, 'extending amnesty' (IE sending invites) to two or three known abusers while lying about his reasons for doing so is "consistent".
Touché.
I agree that mods should exercise their own judgment - as long as they are able to face the consequences of doing so. By me, a lying nepotist ideologue *is* a perfect mod for that tribe. Kudos to the mod! -
-
Re: Ban this guy?
Sun, September 27, 2009 - 2:20 PM"however, there is no 'freedom of speech' on private online forums"
Sure there is. You just have to be willing to face the consequences, thereof. If people get disgusted with inequities in a tribe, it dies. No problem. -

Re: Ban this guy?
Sun, September 27, 2009 - 2:48 PM>>Sure there is.<<
what are you even talking about?
the admins/owners of online forums make their own rules
about what kinds of posts are allowed as do individual mods.
that has nothing to do with freedom of speech or the u.s. 1st amendment
the 1st amendment only guarantees that the *government* will not suppress speech.
private individuals and forums can censor all they want
how any of us feel about that is a moot point.
-
-
Re: Ban this guy?
Sun, September 27, 2009 - 3:47 PMPrecisely. The infamous S&P of CBS in the 50s censored the sweaty grizzled manfuck out of all the scripts for CBS's shows in the hopes of maintaining their advertisers' good will. They were not guilty of infringing upon the 1st amendment in any way (and thus were never successfully prosecuted), only of being cowardly prudish hypocrites (as well as simply effective businesspersons).
Outer Limits was better than Twilight Zone for this reason. ABC was just a tad more 'American' than CBS was, at the time. -

Of course, and you are free to break them. You must then face the consequences, is all I meant. I think of it as akin to editing. If the government does the editing, it's censorship. If you don't like the way your work is edited in a private forum, you can always go to another, or simply start your own. -
