nope, I'll stay here if its all the same to you.

i was merely pointing out that if trigger happy Bush would toughen gun laws rather than encouraging everyone to go out and buy a gun this wouldn't have happened, while he insists that everyone has a "right for people to bear arms" you will continue to get this sort of incident occuring again and again!

This is a vile post. Take your misogyny elsewhere, please.
I thought Misogyny refers to the prejudice against women?

While i dont agree with the gun laws in America, the tightening of the laws wont do anything; a psycho who is determined enough to sloughter innocent people is going to do it regardless of how tight the gun laws are.

To blame this directly on Bush, which you are, is stupid.

i don't blame this one single incident directly on Bush. but the fact that this one single incident is not isolated and that similar incidents happen far to regularly in the US I do blame on Bush and his lack of any action on US gun laws.

while a determined psycho will still be able to go out and do this, tightening of gun laws will prevent your average mental patient or kid who think the whole worlds against him from going out buying a gun and walking into a school as happens all too regularly.

the only thing I think is stupid about this is bush's press secritary making the statement after the incident yesterday that everyone has a right to bear arms. he might as well have said, "hey your all free to go out and do this, i don't give a shit".

No, you absolutely were not "merely pointing out" some ignorant anti-Bush rhetoric, you referred to a female White House official using a despicable, hate-filled term that reduces her to a single body part. My guess is that if Tony Snow were handling the press conference you wouldn't have referred to him as a "cock" or some equivalent term.

That type of talk is deeply revealing of a prejudice against women, which is why I brought it up, Danallica.

Oh, that makes it perfectly acceptable then. :rolleyes:

You were talking about the White House press secretary's conference yesterday and then proceeded to say "someone needs to shoot that fucking cunt." The current, interim, White House press secretary is a woman. Maybe if you didn't have the writing skills of a sixth-grader, the obvious inference wouldn't have been made. One way or another, you've clearly got some issues when it comes to discussing things in a rational manner without resorting to deplorable terms that include murdering the President of the United States.

Your title says that you're a Respected Member. I don't respect you.

apologies for having an opinion that differs from yours. if not having the same opinion as you means you do not respect me then so be it, i am not concerned if you respect me or not.

however, using the "deplorable term" cunt is a lot better than shooting someone through the head, but hey, american policy says otherwise. guess i am wrong. :P

You clearly have no ability to debate your way out of a wet paper bag or anything resembling comprehension skills. This is not about a "difference of opinion." I have no problem respecting people who disagree with me so long as they are able to represent themselves in a mature manner.

You are using repugnant language that is reflective of a hatred of women and of the President of the United States of America. Killing the President is not a point of debate in this situation. I have no respect for someone who tries to make it one. Calling someone you don't like a "cunt" right before you wish for their death is not a point of debate, it's sociopathic and, quite frankly, childish behaviour. A tenth-grader is usually able to present a debate in a more refined fashion. I wouldn't tolerate someone saying something like that right in my face, why should I have any respect at all for someone who says it on the Internet?

Just because it's "only a Metallica forum" and you're a Metallica fan doesn't give you an excuse or a free pass to behave without any sense of intelligence or responsibility for your own words. Grow up already.
