So says the....


(I'm convinced I'll get warned or banned for completing that comment of mine. Somehow I think it's going to be O.K. for Sae to label me fat or pansy but if I retalitate in kind, I'll be in trouble.)

Go ahead and complete it ^_^ Now I'm curious!

Sae, that's a sweeping generalization of all Texans. There are plenty of good people in Texas and the actions of some don't reflect the actions of all. I am not from Texas, and I am offended at this statement.

People can be fat pansies and still good, Ely I'm offended people are taking me seriously when I say something with '^_^' emotes following it ^_^

It was a silly statement, and I certainly would never seriously call all texans fat or pansies ^_^ Trivia: most of our out of state setnetting hires come from Texas.

Then it is time for them to smack the crazies down instead of constantly electing them.

^ Also, it becomes hard to take these 'good people' seriously when things like this openly pass.

Well that's that. Their idiocy is now in history!

The question becomes wether 'we' will learn from it

Quote:the only thing we learn from history is that we learn nothing from history

A lot of people seem not to have grasped that the discipline of history is not objective,or definitive,and subject to constant change. All historical accounts present limited points of view.
