if your commenting on my post, I didn't make any comments on the protesters. I feel they have every right to be there. Now, in the case of Russel Means, he should be arrested and confined for the rest of his life. He's done nothing in this country but cause trouble.

He's only following a precedent that this very nation was founded upon.

Nope, wasn't yours. Rather than discussing an opposing point, it's trashing the possible source (Fox, KO etc), just using talking points etc. Now days, pretty much everything is expressed as a talking point. So what? Every point is not going to be an original thought.

Because as I said earlier - when the words you post don't express any meaning, and/or they have little relevance to the topic at hand - it takes the conversation nowhere.

Certain posters have a clear history of doing this, and I'll continue to call them out until they either start thinking for themselves, or quit posting useless, vacuous rhetoric.

Everyone has a right to protest. Everyone.
Still TROLLING!!! I don't see where she at all implied brown skinned people as a group.I believe some of you took citigirl's comment as racist. It was clear she was implying we need to move along ALL of us.

If we are constantly looking to the past and at our worst then how will we ever move forward. This is exactly what diversity gets us too many cultures not understanding the other. Welcome to America the "GREAT MELTING POT" a phrase that once held meaning now a phrase that will probably be the "DESTRUCTION of AMERICA".
