More Josh Howard Crap

[monosylab1k]

Hey according to ambchang, when the KKK used to lynch blacks for exercising their rights and standing up to Jim Crow, that's not an official government action, so we shouldn't care about it.

All we really need to learn from him is that while saying you "want" to do something and you're "going to" do something are exactly the same, they both mean nothing unless you "actually" do something, unless of course you say you "want to" which is illegal even tho, according to his logic, you were also "going to" which is the opposite of "actually" doing it.

In summary,
Want to equals going to.
Going to doesn't equal actually doing.
Actually doing is implied by saying you want to.

That's logic to live by.

this is not about freedom of speech at all.

woah, you're a quick one!

Try reading up on what freedom of expression means

The U.S. Supreme Court unanimously found that penalty-enhancement hate crime statutes do not conflict with free speech rights because they do not punish an individual for exercising freedom of expression; rather, they allow courts to consider motive when sentencing a criminal for conduct which is not protected by the First Amendment.

I'm about to say the only nice thing I'll ever say about him: at least he's not such a shriveled pussy that he has to block people who disagree with him.

Whats the difference? You just use a troll name anyway. Thats why you got owned.

Where did Gino say he was going to beat you up?

[Findog]

I already said no a couple of pages back, but it has nothing to do with freedom of speech and relates to physical assaults. Those are two different things.

A person is hateful and a hypocrite for assaulting you for the things you say and do (that are legal), but this is not about freedom of speech at all. That phrase is being thrown around with people having little understanding of what it entails far too often (witness this thread).

Then what are we arguing about then? We're not talking about how freedom of speech doesn't apply when you walk into the workplace. We're talking about how Gino says as a soldier he "fought for our freedoms," but doesn't seem to want us to exercise those freedoms. In short, he's a colossal asshat.

Hmm, I didn't lose my over another poster's opinion, so yeah, I got "owned." There's one person who looks very bad in this thread, and it ain't me...

Way to completely miss my point.

very unfortunate.

Right here

If you don't stand during the national anthem and show how much you love the God Damn U.S. of A., I'm going to beat you up

[koriwhat]

Of course I do, but I find it incredulous that you would really think that Gino would beat you up for sitting during the national anthem. He may actually just beat you up because you are so dense.

BTW, I already used that line, please use something else, it just makes you look ... well ... dumb.

no i think you have it all wrong... i don't think 'gina is gonna kick anyones ass. if i had to guess i'd say he was probably the whipping boy in the air force.

oh and yeah i know you "already used that line" but since you're so in' "dense" you didn't get the fact that i was mockin' you. dumbass!

OK, I am not arguing that he is not an asshat, that is for you to decide.

But people, and I am not saying that is you and mono only, mixes up what freedom of expression with the freedom to do whatever the they please.

Let me make my stance clear for once, I do not support the war, and I don't even agree with most of the stuff Gino said, BUT I find the liberal and incorrect use of the word freedom of expression to be disturbing.

Finally, it is also hypocritical of throwing a hissy fit over a "threat" over the internet, when mono does it himself.

[ambchang]

Way to completely miss my point.

Care to explain?

Apparently, I am still missing your point.

[ambchang]

Right here

Gimme a break, what he said was:

Okay, I think we're on the same page finally.

Sweet 8lb, 6oz Baby Jesus, you STILL don't get what's going on here.

[ambchang]

:LMAO, this is your original quote

i love it when people know exactly what someone means by their words yet they still act dumb and try to twist it around to better fit their argument. well done dumbass.

So if you do not believe Gino was going to kick your ass, then why are picking on one sentence of what he said, fully knowing the meaning of that one sentence, twist it around to fit your own argument?

The I "already use that line" line was to tell you that you have once again missed the point of me telling you that you are practicing exactly what you preach not to do.

[ambchang]

Sweet 8lb, 6oz Baby Jesus, you STILL don't get what's going on here.

You mean how you pretend that it was a real threat when everyone knows what he means?

Tough that Gino is not particularly popular around here, or that he has a different politcal view point than you do, but at least I can restrain myself from twisting arguments around for my own benefit.

i never thought 'gina was gonna kick anyones ass... i do however think by the way he said what he said his intentions are just that, to invoke such a thought into all our heads, but he's too pussy like everyone else behind a screen to really act on his tough guy words.

ps: you! <-- say it like the dude in the opening scene of pineapple express. that's how i want to say it to you.

[monosylab1k]

No no no no no, you're completely right. I took him very literally. I also really want to/going to/actually will/whatever burn down ducks' house. Why else would I cement my reply with a picture of



A BALD EAGLE WRAPPED IN THE AMERICAN FLAG AND CONSUMED BY A COPYRIGHT WATERMARK.

the internet really isn't your cup of tea.

I doubt he was going to invoke that thought.

I mean, seriously, it would be very difficult to take that as any kind of a threat, but it would be easy to use it to mock him based on his political views.

[ambchang]

I should start mocking people on completely unrelated subjects because they have a different political than I do. Perhaps then the internet will be my cup of tea.

[Reggie Miller]

Who would have ever thought that making fun of the Bug could have proven to be a divisive issue?

Come on guys! Our mutual hatred of Josh Howard is what binds this country together and makes it great!

America, eatin' my lunch from a single bowl in my parents basement, where I'm livin'. Happy Birthday, I'm forty-three.

Don't want to waste those precious calories...chewin'. Jesus come move my jaw for me, help me get my sloppy food down my throat.

The End.

I always hated the national anthem.
