PirateBallerina » CNews 25July05All great men have their moments of televised glory... For the Ward Churchill completists among us, here's a video clip of the professor interviewing with what appears to be a cow hand-puppet during his visit to the Bay area a few weeks ago. Let's not even consider why the cow's lipstick is smeared. (the entire Street Level TV program may be of some interest; you can download the entire 128 meg's worth here)

Just as harmless as these guys right? 10News.com - News - Eco-Terrorists Responsible For Massive Fire? Earth Liberation Front - ELFWords and ideas have consequences Mateo your are responsible for them. Freedom of speech does not absolve responsibility. If you had told me anyone would do anything but laugh at the idiots of ELF. I would not have believed it. Unfortunately the decrepit state of public education in this country is at a point were young men such as yourself are not even able to understand the difference between Sedition and Free speech. It is really very pathetic. Liberty requires vigilance and I plan on being vigilant. The man should be charged with his crimes.

I've read up on ELF in the past, and yes, their actions certainly do incriminate them. However, what has Churchill done besides be a raging asshole? Again, it's the attention he gets from the media, the talking head pundits, and average Joe Americans who absorb that crap like a sponge that keeps this guy in business.

Again, it's the attention he gets from the media, the talking head pundits, and average Joe Americans who absorb that crap like a sponge that keeps this guy in business. Mateo before ELF was an eco-terrorist organization it was an idea. When I first heard about it I was incredulous that anyone would have anything to do with them. Well guess what, they are now a real problem. You may consider the ideas being espoused by Churchill as harmless I do not. Get a dictionary and look up sedition, then tell me he is not a traitor to his country by his very words. What I want is for him to be held responsible for what he is advocating. For crying out loud the man is encouraging enlisted personal to murder their officers. How it is you are not able to understand that not all speech is protected, and never has been is beyond me. It speaks to my mind anyway very poorly of your education and understanding of the principles this nation is founded on. That more than Churchill or anything else scares me most of all. You don't actually have a real understanding of what the nation is all about. In effect you are brainwashed into thinking someone can advocate armed insurrection and that it is protected speech. The truth is Mateo it is not and never has been. As the population is dumbed down by a failed education, we get well meaning fools like you who think it is, and who don't have the wherewithal to recognize the danger that it presents. PS I was serious about you writing me an essay as to just exactly why you think I am wrong. Instead of these shallow back and fourths. Please take me up on my offer I will take what you think seriously and will respond in a serious manner.

Ok, before this discussion degenerates into insults as previous ones have, I'll get this out of the way: Please to not make presumtions about my education or intelligence. Just because I do not agree with your quasi thought police ideas does not make me uneducated.
I'm sticking by my previous reply. Ward Churchill thrives on the attention he gets from the media. Without that, people would completely ignore him. Where do you propose we stop, as far as eliminating people whose ideas don't jive with the collective idea of patriotism?

I did not make any presumptions about your education you have demonstrated your lack of understanding. You don't think? Then please explain what sedition is and what qualifies as sedition. quasi thought police? What is that supposed to mean? You can think whatever you want you may not advocate violence. Look you know what, I asked you for a serious well thought out and reasoned response. Instead you offer up this clap trap? You did not respond to any of the points I made, instead you would rather act offended by my observation of your lack of understanding. So I guess unless you actually make a serious well thought out and reasoned response. I don't care what you think and am not interested in you drivel. PS I am not trying to insult you. This is called honest assesment, grow up and learn to deal.

This is called honest assesment, grow up and learn to deal. You don't even know me, so an honest assesment is impossible. I've mentioned before that no one sided with you when you called for the execution of Moam Chomsky and Ward Churchill. Take that as a clue. As far as your views on dissent and sedition go, on these boards, you seem to be rather alone, which is fine. However, someone disagreeing with you does not mean that they are "uneducated", or do not "understand". They just happen to have different views than you. Yes, language can be sedition...if it leads to a specific act of rebellion of subversive act affecting others. So far, I haven't seen anyone getting killed as a result of Ward Churchill's ranting and raving. KNow why? Most people realize that he's an asshole. grow up and learn to deal.That's not an insult? Ya know, I bet ol' Sam Adams and Tom Paine would be real glad you weren't around in the 1770's. You'd have been calling for their heads for sure.

An honest assesment is always possible. Think before you write.
I've mentioned before that no one sided with you when you called for the execution of Moam Chomsky and Ward Churchill.
As I've mentioned before right and wrong are not subject to popular vote it does not matter to me who does or does not agree. I follow the light cast by my own conscience. Like I said before grow up and stand on your own two feet.
Take that as a clue.
From you? You can't even make a legitimate argument. I don't mind legitimate disagreement but this is boooooooring.
As far as your views on dissent and sedition go, on these boards, you seem to be rather alone, which is fine.
Is that so, why don't you provide me with your proof? Clue for Matoe you don't have any. Truth is independent of your views on popularity. Something is or is not true even if no one believes it. Truth is independent of what the opinion polls show, unlike you.
However, someone disagreeing with you does not mean that they are "uneducated", or do not "understand". They just happen to have different views than you.
No but someone who can't make legitimate distinctions or arguments they are displaying a lack of understanding. That is called an objective observation and would be true even if you agreed with me. You know at this point I am really board of you, so like I said unless you can do better don't bother.

Think before you write.
HAHA!!! You do the same.
...stand on your own two feet.
What the hell do you think I'm doing? I've been disagreeing with you all along and have stated my reasons for doing so. All you have been able to reply with is crap like, "You don't understand. I am really board of you."
My proof that no one really takes your rants about killing Churchill seriously? Go back and read the post where this all started. Unfortunately for you, if it comes down to whether or not people like W. Churchill live or die, the majority opinion will rule.
The bottom line here is that I disagreed with you, stated why, and you took a hissy fit. You had to go and try to blow me off by belittling me and telling me how bored you are. Oh, and by the way, when you grow weary and tired of dealing with someone, you grow "bored", not "board". Invest in a dictionary. Better yet, use one of the umpteen free ones on the internet. Who's uneducated?

Who's uneducated? You are so very lameYou don't even know me, so an honest assesment is impossible. I can always make an honest assessment, knowing you is irrelevant to an honest assessment. I feel like am talking to a child....stand on your own two feet. What the hell do you think I'm doing? Deluding yourself into thinking that because you perceive my position as unpopular it is therefore proof I am wrong. Why don't you go goggle logical fallacies. My proof that no one really takes your rants about killing Churchill seriously? Go back and read the post where this all started. Unfortunately for you, if it comes down to whether or not people like W. Churchill live or die, the majority opinion will rule. You continue to make irrelevant arguments, that is why you bore me. I don't care what any one else may think. I follow the light of my own conscience not what others may think. If you wish to convince me I am wrong you need to point to my error in reason or logic. This is very basic stuff you don't understand. The fact that you don't understand this very basic stuff speaks like I said to the poor state of your ability to understand basic concepts.I am done responding to your idiocy now babye

Cameron, it looks to me like you're just an arrogant prick. Say what you will, but it doesn't change the fact that I tried to be civil with you and you couldn't handle it.
