Is that stuff that JTT says about America true?

By the way, Bill, the Wikipedia article on the battle contradicts your source saying that the Indians who fought with Jackson were Creek, who were participants in the civil war within the Muskogee/Creek nation to which i have already alluded--it does not mention the Cherokee. Did it ever occur to you that a Cherokee organization might not be the most reliable source for information about Cherookee relations with the United States?

This article at the Georgia encyclopedia states that it was Creek who fought with Jackson.

There are however a boat load of people who claim to know what you should be thinking and feeling, and that you are a proven defective the proof being that the program they lay down is not being followed.....there is at A2K as profound and constant lack of respect for other people and their right to their own minds and feelings.

Given that this is the Internet, I find that there is more respect of divergent opinions here than just about anywhere else. That doesn't mean that you don't get flamed and flamed often, but compared to the alternatives I'm hard pressed to come up with a better place.

Hum, so you breeze right past people routinely not respecting the rights of others, peoples clear superiority complex, and concentrate your fire on meeting places....that's a whiff right there....

@hawkeye10,
This is the Internet. You don't have a "right" to respect. You are welcome to bitch about A2K or anything else. For that matter you are free to leave though I enjoy your presence and hope you plan to stay. You also have a right to flame all the rest of us just as we reserve the right to flame you. My take is that your opinions get a much more thorough airing here than you would get in either another Internet forum or in person. I can't see why getting the occasional flame counts as "not respecting the rights of others". As to my "clear superiority", I do the best I can to control it. Very Happy

Everybody has a right to human rights, on the internet and anywhere else. We moderns like to yak about human rights and demand our rights when we dont feel that we are getting what we want, but we are not so good at practicing human rights by way of respecting other peoples rights to their own minds and feelings. We voice this lack of respect for other on the internet more than in real life because we can, and because we meet up with a more varied collection of people than we do in real life, but at the end of the day what matters is what is in our hearts, expressed or not.

There is a basic problem with people being narcissistic, uncivilized, and prone to transgressions upon others , on the internet and off....that was the point. There was never an "I" statement in my post elaborating on Mysterman's post, my words were not about me, they were an observation of the collective.

1) our right to our own mind/opinion/feelings

2) engineer whiffed on what matters, he concentrated on something of little importance and bypassed the important subject matter...as in a swing and a miss in baseball.

@hawkeye10,
This is typical of your hysteical Chicken Little bullshit. Nobody in that thread stopped you from having your opinion about the gay boy and his bullying stepfather (i know what got your panties in a twist, whether or not you're willing to admit it). However, having expressed your idiot opinion, people basically told you you're an idiot. You have a right to your opinion, and to express it, and nobody took that away from you, or attepmted to. They just pointed out what an asshole you were being when you did express it, which is everybody's right.

Go back and read the thread, attempting to read for comprehension this time. The subject is advice to Gracie on how to approach the speech that she finds in life. My point was than many people will attempt to transgress upon her right to her own mind and her own feelings.

It. Had. Nothing. To. Do. With. Me.

Bullshit . . . don't piss down my leg and tell me it's raining. You were handing out bullshit "man-up" advice to that kid in the other thread, people slapped you down for it, and you came scurrying over here to whine about how your rights are transgressed. You pull that bullshit all the time, and that post has nothing to do with Gracie. This thread doesn't have the least thing to do with "how to approach the speech that she finds in life," it is Gracie asking if what JTT peddles is the truth.

You're not even a convincing liar.

You see what you want to see, not what is in front of you.

I am still in the other thread. I also gave good advise. Whether the OP takes it to heart or not is up to him, but I have done what I can to help him out. You are making a boatload of assumptions about my heart and mind here, and taking offense, nicely illustrating the point I made to Gracie.

You're delusional. I take no offense at the fact that you're an idiot, i just point it out. This thread is not about Gracie's "issues" with speech, it's about whether or not what JTT peddles is true, that's what she asked. Your advice in that other thread sucks, several people told you so, so you ran over here to whine about it, which is typical of you. You have the right to express your opinion, and nobody is trying to take that away from you, and nobody here can. Other people have the right to their opinions, and the expressions of them, including that you're full of ****. You start whining whenever you get criticized, and try to claim that your rights are being infringed. But you have no right to be taken seriously, and in general, you aren't.

On A2K unlike many other places threads are allowed to evolve and tangent...are you so ignorant that you dont know this? Kindly attempt to keep up or else stay quiet.

I have no reason to think this is true.

I don't care what you think is true. As for keeping up, i noticed right away that you were trying to make this thread about you, and your pouting because you were told your advice to that other kid is bullshit. This thread was never about Gracie's asking "how to approach the speech that she finds in life." You've just thrown that in to attempt to justify coming here to whine about being told your advice to that other kid is bullshit.

While you would make a good case study for the flaws and neuroses common to modern man you have exhausted my patients for pissing and moaning. And I am often said to have the patients of a saint, so that takes some doing.

Carry On, if you must, without me.

It's not pissing and moaning, it's laughing my ass off at your bullshit.

In that same thread you informed me that I should go back to the school that I went to and demand an apology from the teachers for the education they gave me. More of you not being offensive and insulting?

No, are you another one who claims that only the specialists have the right to speak? Do you think that only the experts have the right to form an opinion? We see a lot of that these days, it is more lack of allowing others to have their own mind and opinions, and lack of basic human respect for other humans.

It is also a big part of how we got into our long running deference to the elites which has gotten us into the position we are in, where society largely no longer works, and where human decency and human rights are increasingly vanished even as doctrine is that human rights are sacrosanct.

The common man is going to retake control of our democracies..... those who claim that the Elites need to be in charge can **** off, they had their chance, and they made a hash of things and proved themselves to be liars and opportunists no better than anyone else.
