Discussion about the Suspension List

Quote: mkl654321

There's a distinction here. A "pedophile" is not someone who has committed a crime; that would be a "child sex abuser" or something of that nature. (In fact, I'm sure there are hundreds of thousands of pedophiles out there who have not and never will commit a crime.)

Okay. Change my speech to "I hate child sex abusers. I think they should be given the death penalty. I hate them and want others to hate them."
Isn't this still "expression whose primary purpose is to express or to incite hatred against any person or group"?

Also, I don't know how that statement "subverts the process of law". I specifically wrote, in my first example, the reason I wanted the group to be hated was to bring about a change in the law. A good way to get people to contact their representatives is to make a speech that causes them to become angry.

I'd also say I hate pedophiles. Don't let someone politically correct you because they have T-O-L-E-R-A-N-C-E for them in Oregon. How many pedophiles don't eventually become child abusers.

Oops, Jerry's name is a funny color again. Was it something he said?

I don't have much tolerance for sharing private messages in public. See this post if you're wondering why Jerry was suspended this time.

As Reggie Jackson commented on himself so many years ago; "I am the straw that stirs the drink" It's gonna be a boring two weeks.....

Reggie backed up his boisterousness with substance.

I predict Logan will be back posting within hours of his suspension ending.. He is addicted to causing trouble as a drunk is to cheap vodka.

Boring?

On the contrary. I think it's gonna be like a breath of fresh air.

Maybe we can have some good discussions now....

I really shouldn't bring this up, because I'm operating under a one-way truce with you. But I feel it necessary to give you a chance to apologize for some rather bigoted remarks you've made about Mexico and Mexicans in the past.

Nareed, I literally have no idea what you might be referring to. I've heavily criticized THE COUNTRY OF MEXICO in the past, but I have NEVER criticized the Mexican PEOPLE, and I have been very careful to draw the distinction between the two. To reiterate: I think the country of Mexico is a dysfunctional, corrupt cluster-fuck, and I think the Mexican people are the salt of the earth. I love Mexican food, music, and the general attitude of the people; I hate the policia shaking me down for all the money in my wallet before I can recross the border back into the US.

Try this. Last post. You are referring to a transaction between private parties, in other words Mexican people, and you kick the entire culture while you're at it.
