 First move was Bishop's dickhat to public courtyard followed by Ten Commandments monument to front of courthouse to which you attempted to counter with "this good/that bad" flawed logic where I countered with "freedom's freedom, it'll end up all or nuthin at this rate" where you passed so I took your queen now you're staring at the board.

Now you should be caught up. :D

Sandman is rather certain that he made no judgement good or bad. He simply noted the court's position on such things. The court will support your right to display satirical art at a private school, but will not allow you to display a christian monument in front of a public courthouse.

Maybe you should back up and re-read it.

The court made a ruling that has more repercussions than just the Ten Commandments monument. Sandman posted this ... and then Sandman challenged any and all who have voiced their personal objection to it so far (which, whether you want to play yourself off as a "neutral observer or not, puts you in the "support" camp). I supported the freedom to display it as well and challenged you to see exactly how open-minded you were in that regard. Now Sandman is all of a sudden a "neutral observer" again. Convenience must be Sandman's middle name.

Here's to you "neutral pot-stirrers." (raises glass) :D

Sure ... why not? Another social commentary in bronze or some other substance. Those offended are given permission to not ogle it ... maybe their money back as well.

I assume Lazs that your last reply is to me in an attempt to contemporize funked's black stereotype?

Is it okay? What do you think the answer to that is? I highly doubt it, yet the bronze dick-Bishop obviously was...

I'm not sure the comparison is a good one... maybe, but... Unfair? It sounds like we need to break out a bag of cookies and milk, sit some of us down and have a grown-ups talk about how sometimes, life just isn't fair. :D

I wonder if there's any art that the conservative types actually like... and why we only hear from them when they have something negative to say about it. I mean, not only is it offensive, but "That thing cost us taxpayers HOW MUCH? My KID could do that! Why, it's an OUTRAGE!" I reckon it sounds to people like me alot like the "librahls" sound to them when they say "guns are bad!" and "War is mean"...  Kind of silly I'm guessing.

It's sort of like... if the extent of your commentary consists of pointing at it every now and then and saying how much it bothers you, then you really aren't considered... uhm... yeah, considered. Again, I'm sure it's exactly how the gun arguments sound to you. And uh... the beat goes on... lada lada lay
