Please take a look at the "Johnny get your gun" thread. You might want to delete it.

Who? Me?

To me, it's just yet another amusing clash between two groups of people with too extreme views that both have a few good points but are not in possession of the truth.

By the way, "Being off the meds" is a phrase I think is unique to the US and it implies that everyone is taking them, which is just such a bizarre notion; That everyone, per default, are so f****d up that they need medication... :?

Well, the poster denied that he was advocating sedition, but I think it could be interpreted that way.

Not really. It is just an insult. At most, it implies that the other person should be on medication.

Well, I do advocate sedition just for the fun of it, even if he won't stand for his word.
No interpretation needed.
Especially in the US.
Isn't that one of the founding principles, really?
I just don't understand why the president is not hanging from a rope, on fire, at this very moment.

But then again, I've just had this urge lately to kill everything, especially things that has to do with government or authority. :evil:
I guess it's part of being True Neutral to have occasional bouts in all alignment directions...

And having a Nac Mac Feegle as an avatar. I don't think they've killed anything, but they'd fight anything.

I am a communist, so my views are certainly a bit deviant in the U.S. (though pretty normative in my own field of sociology). However, I am careful not to advocate treason/sedition.

Yeah, they're awesome. I wish I were one...
Drinking, fighting, stealing, and various combinations.
Sounds like a worthwhile life.... Or death, rather... :)
