OK what happened?

[Franko]

your description is the family in Kansas. they travel around but live in Kansas

and, yes, they are crazy

Thank gawd for that and there's not more of them, from what I saw in that doc they were one scary bunch of crazy folk... :eek:

Believe me I'm all for freedom of speech and to be honest don't believe in wars and the military (whomevers country they may be from) but there are some things in life that are taboo and picketing a soldiers funeral is one of them in my opinion...

[koaftder]

@franko, more PM hostility i see? (of course i don't see it now ,post popped i guess). Shame on you

fortunately, there's a biker group that go to all these funerals and place themselves between the honored and the douchbags (the kansas family) so that those attending the funerals are not disturbed.

that is what I love about free speech. it shows who is a moron and who is not.

Unfortunately, this "free speech" moniker used in USA is no longer real. There is no such thing as free speech here. If you only knew the files the govt keeps on people labeling them as subversives you would realize this. Or, if you take into account the secret police that infiltrate demonstrations and protest groups to make lists of people,take their photos, etc etc etc..

especially since "Homeland Security" creation FEMA powers extended, Military used in policing citizens, and "Patriot act"

OK, I too find the label "Patriot act" offensive.
But I love what cecilia just posted.
Classic freedom of speech.
Explains why when the ACLU gets the courts to grant the right for local Nazi's to hold rallies the police have to defend the Nazi's against the counter demonstrators that would beat the crap out of them.

I understand what you mean - when i refer to Free Speech I am talking about the first amendment as it was written, not how it has been corrupted

[SysAdmin]

We are all adults here and hopefully know right from wrong. Amiga.org should be a fun site to discuss Classic Amiga, Amiga OS 4.x, MorphOS, AROS, Amiga Forever, Minimig, NatAmi and whatever fun new type Amiga stuff comes out. It's not a site for personal attacks or stating my Amiga solution is bigger and better than yours. Hopefully the mods don't have to become baby sitters, that would not be fun for anyone.

I'm going to sleep now and I hope when I wake up tomorrow everyone will have taken a deep breath and feels refreshed.

The reason people don't get violent with this family is because the rest of us (like me) are rational. We know acting violently against someone we disagree with is just plain silly.

Civilized people don't prefer violence.

No they get someone else that does to do it for them. And try to leave no traces.
But always the eye is watching it is...yesss preciousss...

[nicholas]

Dunno if it's the same family then but the doc I saw they were led by some old crackpot preacher and the mother and kids were actually picketing American soldiers funerals and waving banners and shouting disgusting things at the mourners...

Surely there can't be two families like that in Texas... :eek:

I've never understood why this God Hates Fags family picket the funerals of soldiers.

Surely everyone knows it's the sailors?

Which is ironic as much as it is sad, as your entire civilisation is built upon violence and murder.

[Khephren]

All civilisations come to power through violence and murder. Then they keep it going through violence and imprisonment.
