  To censor or not to censor...

  by Elsewhere in

  if [a writing] be false in its facts, disprove them; if false in its reasoning, refute it.

  but, for god's sake, let us freely hear both sides, if we choose.

  I'm all for that.

  But then again Thomas Jefferson wasn't quoted saying:

  If a F##KING writing is a fasle piece of s##t written by an idiot with s##t for brains then tell them to just F##K OFF!

  If pathetic motherf###er wants to say something stupid the let him, but for God's sake, let us freely hear both f###inf sides, if we choose.

  There is also "Freedom of the press"!

  Newspapers do not print stuff like that either, so why should we have a problem in a public forum being asked not to print stuff like that.

  I have no problem doing my best to abide by the rules. I can't say I have never slipped up, but if I do and print something really deliberately offensive and it is removed I will no make an issue out of it because I know what freedom of speech means.

  If I walked into a public mall (and this is a mall of sorts) and someone was shouting obscenities in the mall I would expect that that person would be asked to control himself or herself and if that refused to do so they would be escorted out.

  Nitpickin' Moaners

  by invisible in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  ever since i came to this board i have been constantly amazed at the great propensity for bickering and moaning in this place by a certain minority of posters who might know better, you're so politically correct some of you.

  you ruddy do me head in sometimes, i don't know what it is, maybe you think you are being clever, but it always seems to be the same ones that make the same disparaging remarks over and over again, not clever, just exceedingly boring.. so what if some posters get up your nose, what the blinkin' hec does it matter?

  you know is attacked over and over again here, so is janh plus one or two others, so ruddy what?

  Supporters of Vasily Mkalavishvili, a defrocked Georgian Orthodox priest who rails against evangelicalgroups,

  There is no doubt in my mind that these arsholes are out numbered 10 to 1 so if it were the other way around and they were being attacked then they would not bethere anymore. Maybe they would be in South America committing mass suicide with the arshole leader.

  Bill Bowens Highjacked thread

  by CC Ryder in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  bill bowen has started an organized effort to help innocent vicitms and their families to recover from the abuse they suffered and the way the wts has handled their cases.

  he has started a thread to see if anyone among us here at jw.com would like to help in those efforts.. someone, who we are all familiar with, has disrupted bill's request with equally insensitive remarks and intent as that of the recently deactivated fred hall and bleep.

  he states that he has the right to post anywhere and say anything he wants, well, hopefully simon has a different answer!.

  To ROBDAR: Please read carefully

  LAWSUIT!

  and why?

  There was no sign saying

  It is the only case at this moment pending in court with publicity That serves as a reminder to the silliness of what has been going on here for the past two days. PERIOD

  Below Quotes are from Trauma-Hound

  There is not one link on here to any rules.

  Even though he was shown several times they were not CLEAR ENOUGH TO SATISFY HIM.

  What rules, they are made up as they go along. There is not one link on here to any rules. Again I call bullshit.

  I would post a sign with those rules, however there isn't one here, and so everything is interperted by the moderators personal whims, I know I've been a victim of this, again your statement is just plain stupid, without the posters there would be no board period, end of statement.

  If you edit or change the context of my message, I will sue you for copyright violations.

  why? Because there was no sign.

  Oh and here is one you might want to remember for future reference. Just a suggestion.

  a QOUTE FROM TRAUMA-HOUND:

  Ugg why do people like to try to twist my words around, hello? McFly?

  OK Good night all.

  everyone is on this board for one reason or another.

  many of you because of wrong doings or injustices committed by someone.

  whatever the reason, we are all on this board making posts that maybe interesting to others here.. instead of talking trash about someone you may not like on this board, let's do this:.

  The WTS does not like having bipolar members. That's why they tirelessly work to keep them depressed ALL of the time. They generally succeed, too.

  Farkel

  If i'm not mistaken I think they were considered to be "demonized"

  Not sure when the WT lifted that ban.
