Cal Hiway patrol have special civilian IDs that indicate who they are, so do their spouses. They also have special license plate frames that Identify them as CHP affiliated. Favoritism is a part of life, look anywhere/everywhere- HTC is no different.

Humans are inconsistant & make mistakes. The squeeky wheel gets the grease.

The early bird may get the worm, but it's the 2nd mouse who gets the cheese:aok

It's a common, though not universal, thought that swearing in public is poor form.  Probably much more common than the people who think swearing is appropriate at all times and in all places.


indeed :aok

You, on the other hand, are an admitted relativist - you believe that there's no real right or wrong, that it's all in the eyes of the individual.  And that's liberal left.  That's the view the feminists, gun-control crowd, and environmentalists take.  Anything goes as long as it benefits them.  They cry "tolerance" but they have no tolerance for those who disagree with them.  They are just as intolerant as those whom they accuse of intolerance; the "tolerance" crowd is simply intolerant about different things.

I believe in common courtesy, too, but as I said you've made it clear that you care not a fig for that, so I feel no reason to trouble myself with it when addressing you.

Disclaimer: Sincere apologies to all of the atheists, vegans, illegal immigrants, homosexuals, feminists, abortionists, environmentalists, and government officials I've offended with this post.

 

In particular, foul language in the presence of children is greatly frowned upon.  In fact, in certain areas of the United States of America, it is against the law.


Now that you have convinced yourself how rightous you are and what a demon I am, how about going back and reading my original post?

In that post you will find that I agreed that cussing online was probably inappropreate, but disliked the manor in which the point was put forth.

I note with interest your attacks on various groups and then your "sincere apolgy" for those attacks?? I am abit confused by that, which is it? Do you oppose those groups or just think opposing them is reason to apologize?

Now as to the the words "simple, common, or any other you wish to use" that is a subjective pursuit and those that attempt garner support for their position by "assuming" they are right, in my view are not.

By the way in this country your religeous views are your own and you have every right to them but NOT to force them on others who may not see it the same way.

The apology was sarcasm, a looser form of the literary device called irony.  And yes, I'm quite opposed to those groups but if you'll read my post I don't recall telling the world that they're going to die if they don't agree with me (which you seem to think is what I'm saying).  In fact you pressed your own religious views on me before I even considered pressing mine on you.  At any rate, I was not at all "forcing" my religious beliefs on anyone; I was simply informing you of my beliefs to prove the errancy of your assumption about them.  The objective of my little tangent was to show you how very silly your accusation of leftist liberalism was.  I still am boggled trying to figure out what in the world made you think that.

Well Benny what made me assume that, was your instant use of "name calling" which is a tactic used by the left in many cases where they have no other valid arguement.  

Apparently the "conservative right" can and does use the same tactic :)

I find your definition of "irony" interesting also as I never thought of it as a "literary device".

As for your forcing your religeous views on me, I only extended what I expected formed your moral opinions into that statement.

You will find, if you ever get to know me, that I am an independant thinker and both agree and disagree with your political and religeous views, since each thing you listed is a seperate issue .

Hmmm.... I thought this thread was about I want to swear as a matter of course and those that disagree with me can *&%& off.

Have I? Yep. Slips out sometimes. Do I as a matter of course? Nope. Do I want to hear some idiot pretend he is in the Navy? Nope.

Have I got muted before in the 3 years I have been playing? Yep. Once. To this day I don't know what I said.......or typed. Did I come on the BBS and whine about how I was getting picked on for swearing? Nope.

I guess I was a Big Boy and dealt with it.

Now to return you to the mudslinging, already in progress.  Enjoy.
