  Re: Re: Maybe YOUR Gov't... Not the one I give consent to govern...

  nice how that works isnt it?
  
  citizens: we dont want this
  gov: its for your own protection
  citizens: its government OF the people FOR the people
  gov: which is why we are doing this for your own protection
  citizens: we will get rid of you by violent means if necessary if you keep ignoring us
  gov: we are representatives of the citizens elected by the citizens. if you threaten us you are threatening the citizens
  citizens: but we ARE the citizens
  gov: which is why we are doing this for your protection

  no, im saying no one else seems to have the problems seeing them. they are a color i would best describe as "hellishly disturbing light salmon".

  Re: Re: Re:

  you may have not noticed it because you could possibly be completely oblivious to things that are obvious, as noted by the content of the post in question.
  
  the setup of the site that allows its userbase to report items is nothing new, its something that happens on more nearly every site (they all have some reporting mechanism) and re-enforces that you are oblivious to things obvious.
  
  the fact that you cannot see them either means you cant set your system up correctly so that colors can be seen or you cant recognize that there is a gap in comments, so... either you are technologically inept and people who are not so inept are not going to listen to anything you have to say... or you just blindly skipped over the apparent gap in comments thus re-enforcing the whole oblivious thing...
  
  it was reported because it was a stupid overplayed incorrect generalization. something that oblivious people would not pick up or even understand when its pointed out to them.
  
  we are now discussing your items, thus your comment that we do not allow the dissemination of inconvenient facts has been proven wrong. that makes you either oblivious (yet again), a liar, or just plain stupid... ill let you pick which one.

  Re: Re: Re: Re:

  uh... hate to inform you of this but the cops saying "STOP THAT!!" in and of itself does not illegal make it when you refuse to stop actions that are held to be legal to begin with.
  Constitutional rights violations are not, nor should they ever be, held to be valid simply because its a law enforcement officer that did it.
