Hey Angela! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Better late than never...
Dearheart, the people behind the blogs are representative of only a small part of american society.
Your homeland can point to or tell stories about 1,000 years of history. Your culture is essentially, of a piece, carved from one stone, shaped and formed into what it is. Ours is more of a stone fence, such as those found along fields and country roads the world over, each stone finding its place over time, the wall serving its purpose but not really planned. There are so many different people that make up the U.S.! We are a vast and complex people, Angela, with a great capacity for kindness and also a great capacity for unintentioned cruelty. Pragmatic romantics, dreamers with a flair for getting things done, stright line thinkers for the most part, but capable of leaps of intuitive inspiration.
Take the time to get to know us.

A mirror of society?
Oh hell yeah,but there are bigger issues than that, such as why? A quick hint, it is historically similar to great empires at the end of their greatness???? My play time is over so that will have to wait for a future visit.
Angela, you frequently come up with thought provoking blogs, keep that subject in mind.

But a couple points to ponder:
First, I will do the opposite of what attackers do and that is to encourage everyone reading this blog to NOT, I'll repeat do NOT believe what I've had to say about the narcissistic sociopath, but instead, use the wealth of information here on the net about the subject. Pay particular attention to the discussions on NPD/Sociopath and NPD/Godlike delusions. And how it works in a group using the 'approval of and withholding of approval', I.E. the carrot and the stick.

Next regarding Racism/Racist labels. The use of these labels are very delicate and the incorrect, false, or selfish use of them does as much harm to race relations as the racists themselves. Think 'the boy who cried wolf'. Now compare that to OJ Simpsom or the Jena6 falsely using racism as a means to bypass justice. Look what has happened in this blog, falsely used racist label leads to a loss of credibility. Now blow all that up to the larger issue of race relations and all of a sudden,where is the credible definition of racism? without a credible definition of the word 'racism', then how will we fight racism. If there is no credible definition, how will it be identified?,Rumple implied that only black people are qualified to identify it. Does that mean the next OJ can commit double homicide,,,,LEGALLY? Does it mean two separate legal systems? Two separate countries? If we can't identify it, how can it end?If there is no credible definition then there must not be any racism, right?
Think about it folks and play nice...............

Barbi,
In your 'site selective...' blog, you had a guy removed for using the exact word I used, I even copied his spelling verbatim to insure it passed the censorship police. You had him immediately ejected for his racists comments and complimented 'big brother' for their swift action in doing so. Now you accuse me of the same thing.
You referred to me as a 'crazy bigoted racist with an explosive temper' Surely, I must be as scary to you as that guy was. I have challenged you on two occasions to have me ejected and to date, no action has been taken. Begs the question, "Why the double standard"?. Let me take this racist argument a step further;
Why is it only you accusing me? Believe me, if a man of the great intellect and wisdom of phea44 said the same things you're saying, I would have to dig very deep to come up with the right words for an apology for such an enormous offense, there is no way I would try to match wits with him as I would clearly be outclassed, and I would certainly respect his judgement on this subject. If Jammer, whom I've referred to as a consummate gentlemanm or EXB3 whom I've observed as a person willing to speak up against offensiveness, even the pedestrians many of whom MUST be people of color, but still nothing. The silence is deafening.
It is only you, who is biased because of your association with, and a follower of, that lunatic, and your double standards, as demonstrated here, that is doing the complaining. Sorry Barbiq, your credibility is shot.
Which brings me to the lesson of the day which I'll post in another window, as my play time has ended and you can get your final words in from here....

BTW, I didn't remove the original quote, nor do I agree with it being removed, selective censorship going on....

P.P.S. Ok, it's a couple hours later and those first two paragraphs are still not sitting right with me. I don't want you to think that I'm critisizing you for having him ejected. I could tell from your blog that you felt threatened and I agree you did the right thing. However, I can't remove those paragraphs because they support my entire position of bias. Your comparison of me with him is your right, but safety first.....

Re: for the pedestrians who DO get it...

Rimple, just like your boss(or dare I say owner?), you try to separate people into groups, those who 'get it' and those that don't, I know, you want to present yourself as being 'deep' and only those with 'depth' will 'get it', Let me explain something, you're not deep, you're boring, there's a difference..... get it?

My play time is over so I'll leave you with this final post so you can have the last word. But don't worry, I'm sure at some future date, I'll have time to visit again, and I'm sure just like always you'll be here to greet me. Every time I visit here, you're just like a little lap dog, running over to me,jumpimg up and down, wanting attention, be petted, exposing your belly.
You're not my kinda dog, Dog, that's why I keep slapping you down.
