Couple of things. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #113

It is not trashing the President. It is about a man doing loyal friends wrong. WillTwain Apr 2015 #114

So I tell you I don't like your post and it is Leninism. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #115

You are spinning. You said this is a non free speech zone. You spinning the facts is what I expected. WillTwain Apr 2015 #116

You asked about free speech. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #117

You said the site determines speech - that smacks of Leninism. WillTwain Apr 2015 #118

You agreed to the rules. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #119

You brought up free speech. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #125

You answered with there is no free speech here. I do not know why. WillTwain Apr 2015 #126

Come on man, can we be civil? WillTwain Apr 2015 #135

Really? were you civil when using leninism with me? hrmjustin Apr 2015 #136

Absolutely, Lenin was all about thought control, too. That was a great historical reference. WillTwain Apr 2015 #143

No one is trying to control you. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #147

I've read your replies in this thread, you're not interested in civility. sufrommich Apr 2015 #137
