Billboard linking Obama, Hitler draws complaints

Flame baiting? He has asked for evidence of your claim. If you can't provide it. Then your claim is incorrect.

Of course, apdst... to you requesting substantiation for one of your ridiculous assertions is flame-baiting. So, I suppose we can assume that, as usual, your comment was just your opinion that you either cannot prove, or refuse to prove. Good to know.

Since you constantly insult my intelligence, it should be easy for you to prove that I'm wrong. Thanks in advance.

I have not insutled your intelligence. I have commented on your standard debate tactic of making a silly assertion and then when asked to substantiate, refusing to do so. You made an assertion. In debate, if you make one without initial substantiation, and you are requested to do so, it is then your job to provide it. If not, your assertion is valueless.

So, either substantiate your assertion or that assertion is valueless. Your choice.

It's flamebait and I'm not going to fall for it. It's your standard debate tactic, so as to look cool, or something. Take your attacks elsewhere, unless you care to prove my assertions wrong. It should be simple enough to provde docs that prove that Obama is in no way comparable to Hitler.

You know buddy, it takes more balls to admit that you're wrong, then continue down this really rediculous road you're going down...

You made a rediculous claim that you simply can't prove. Be a man and fess up.

George Bush was the antichrist---PROVE ME WRONG!

There, now that I have proved that, let's move on.

It shouldn't be hard to prove me wrong; if I'm so far off base. Illustrate for us how Obama and Hitler are complete opposites. See if you beat Captain Courtesy to the punch.

Bush is a born again Christian. Not too many antichrists out there that are born again Christians. There, I proved you wrong.

Here is the comment and my challenge:

Any light skinned black person is light skinned, because he is mixed.

CaptainCourtesy said:
Prove it. In order to do so, you must provide evidence that ANY light-skinned black person is light-skinned because he is mixed. Don't forget to focus on the word in bold.

This is what we are discussing, apdst. Now I know that you hate having the silly things you post challenged. You seem to think that you can post foolishness like that and not get confronted. You made a claim. I have requested the evidence for that claim. Either provide it, or admit that your claim was erroneous. Your choice.

Really? Please point out any antichrists that AREN'T born again Christians.

You make this too easy.
 
Like I said, it's flame bait.

Like I said, you post sometihng ridiculous and refuse to substantiate it, demonstrating that it was nothing but something ridiculous. Perhaps if you didn't post silly assertions and then whine when you are asked to prove them, things like this wouldn't happen to you.

Here's the issue you're going to run into, and I think both sides need to remember this...

There are very few forms of "obvious" racists. You don't see these kind of scraps starting up because one guy in a clan robe called a black guy the N-Word. You see it because Obama talks about his mom being a "typical white person" or someone suggesting Mark Cuban is a racist for saying "Thug" because its a "code word". Those situations are what cause up a stir and the fact is, in both of them, a lot of it is based on the perception of the situation by the viewer in question and shaped by their experiences and views. There's no magical check list for the vast majority of potential "racist" things that one can check off going "Yep, they breached line a, b, and c...racist comment".

"Legitimate" example is completely subjective and that's the big issue. And both sides forget this at times when they're dealing with a potential instance of racism, with their responses generally determined by whether they think its a definite case or not.

while it's fair enough to say that there aren't very many "obvious racists" there isn't really a good reason to call Obama a racist, the perception seems to come from the idea that Obama was elected because of "white guilt". I'm not one to jump on the race card, I don't call the tea partiers racist and I don't call people who disagree with Obama racist, I call racists racist; it's a serious claim and before anyone jumps on it I expect reasonable cause. All of that said comparing (almost) anyone to Hitler is lazy which was my main point (not that I'm complaining).
 
CC is riding on my antichrist coattails...
 
Morning CC.:2wave:

I went to the doctor for a check up yesterday and a few tests. The doctor told me that I was not dead yet.:2dance:

I was happy to hear that. Funerals are way too expensive now days.:roll:
