If he's not banned can we ALL ignore him. I mean EVERYONE?
i think they're all ignoring you. [img]/images/graemlins/supergrin.gif[/img]
Problem is everybody around here is so curious and combative. You see our take on zen is like this - If an insult echoes in the Alley and no one's there to hear it, it's still an insult.
17 votes for ban
19 votes against ban
50 votes closes the poll.
66.6% to ban applied to 50 makes 33 votes to ban.
50-19 leave only 31 votes max that could be for banning
31 is 2 shy of 33, so the motion has failed once more.
I would like to thank again those who voted against the ban.
Thank you.
Democracy prevailed.
It's even more deserving of praise if you don't like me to begin with.
There is nothing to gain from restricting the free flow of ideas.
And I re-iterate for the n'th time that I don't hate America.
I only have a problem with a minority.
Yes, the republican party may get more votes at this point, but not all those votes are from right wing extremists. I respect that some moderates prefer the republicans versus the democrats. I voted exactly like that in France.
The extreme and intolerant views of the likes of Snake Bitten will cause America great suffering and they must be stopped. I'm far from the only one to be of that opinion.
People who thrive on anger and conflict do not have the patience to take the right decisions.
If I were you, I'd chill out, though. Every time this process occurs, your safety margin will erode. Drop anything which hints of US-bashing. Stick to guns, cars, and wimen.
To show I'm not a fucktard, I zapped my sig.
That's somewhat against my principles of standing up for my beliefs but I'll demonstrate some good will. For a little while.
Out of respect for those who voted to keep me around.

[color:"red"]You steaming pile of dogshit...Your "opinion" on America means nothing, because you ARE NOT AN AMERICAN!
I don't think this is a popularity contest, i think remster is pissing off people enough that he is starting to be seen as a troll more than an opiniated individual. I even agree with some of the things you say but you say it in ways that is really inflammatory.
Still i am a believer in freedom of speech, but i can see where some people are coming from when they thing you are more of a troll than anything else.
The constant harrassment by a few, and my unwillingness to bow down to their will does increase the amount of hostile posts I make.
Left on my own device, I'm a rather meek peace loving individual.
You'll be hard pressed to see me aggress people randomly with no reason.
But I'm not a push over and I'll kick back when unjustified comments are made about me.
The gay crap for example is ridiculous. I am a married, hetereosexual male. Explain to me why I should tolerate comments that imply I'm gay, without punching in the nose of the idiot that makes it?
Par, if a dozen people kept repeating that you, Par, are gay, and then other people start believing that you are, wouldn't you get pissed too?
The likes of Gerald are putting together a defamation campaign and I have to sit there and take it?
Hell no!
Your opinions are definitely contrary to mine.... but that does not mean you should be banned. You should leave our country..(obviously you have no respect for our government, our troops... all you like is our freedoms)...... but you can access Viper Alley from France as easily as from the U.S..
So, leave the U.S., but stay on Viper Alley.... but don't get too cocky... or many of us that voted against the banning can change our minds......
By the way..... you may not be gay..... but that dolphin on your Viper definitely looks gay.

Just voicing my opinion.
One of the few with the balls to say they voted "no". Thanks for being honest. [img]/images/graemlins/wave.gif[/img]
If he stays, I don't want to hear any of those who said he can stay to bitch about him. I will just put him on ignore, not going to beat a dead horse.
I support the troops, I don't want them to get killed unecessarily in Iraq.
I do not support the Whacker who sent them into harm's way for questionable reasons. There's a fine line. Let's not get confused here.
If you remember, I donated $10,000.00 when I was affluent to the Paralyzed Veterans of America organization.
I am very grateful to all the service men and service women who defend the country in which I currently live. I signed the registry and was the first to make a post encouraging others to do so.
If everyone gave their lives, there wouldn't be anyone left to run the country.
There has to be an acceptable middle ground.
The PVA folks call me every year to thank me, and I wish I wasn't so fucking broke, so I could donnate and keep helping.
Fuck you Collinsville... whatever I say I will never be worthy in your eyes. Fuck you, fuck you and fuck you.
If you don't have anything nice to say, just keep quiet.
