Nxt2Hvn Posted January 14, 2005 Author #26 Share Posted January 14, 2005 It's just news..... It happened and now people are aware that it did in fact happen. That's why these forums are here......Right If hitler had been given no press , would he have become chancellor of germany? I think not... Point being if the press is responsible and the people re-gurgitating it(nxt2hvn) then fascists , racists & bigots would have a FAR harder job in poisoning people with hatred. 449577[/snapback] Funny you say that ... especially since I work in Media!

wunarmdscissor Posted January 14, 2005 #27 Share Posted January 14, 2005 im not takin it "personally " as such. I just think we should learn from examples set in the past. You obviously still can see how the article is inflammatory, derogatory and just a blatant attempt at inciting religious bigotry. Living where i do i fully understand how religious bigotry cworks , how violent it is and how horrible it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nxt2Hvn Posted January 14, 2005 Author #28 Share Posted January 14, 2005 It isn't like that here... so maybe this is where I fail to see your point! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wunarmdscissor Posted January 14, 2005 #29 Share Posted January 14, 2005 well religious bigotry is always bad , u dont have to experience it daily to know that. im sure ur not that naive. So articles that incite it are also bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
girty1600 Posted January 14, 2005 #30 Share Posted January 14, 2005 Give her a break! Nxt2hvn is not the enemy, she is your friend on UM! She posted a news article just like everyone else does here. Tolerance, people, tolerance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nxt2Hvn Posted January 14, 2005 Author #31 Share Posted January 14, 2005 Boy... I am sure impressed with your passion on this!!! But like I said... I will probably post other topics that get your dander up.....not that I will mean to.... just seems we see things differently. I don't see anything wrong with posting "news"... or factual events that happen.... this forum is full of controversy... that is what makes this site so popular!

She posted a news article just like everyone else does here. Tolerance, people, tolerance. One im not saying nxt2hvn is a bigot or racist im questioning her wisdom in posting the article. Two me and nxt2hvn periodically clash over items like this , i rmemeber a thread involving steve irwin about a year ago that ended up getting quite heated lol. I respect nxt2hvn , dont let this disagreement make u think otherwise. Boy... I am sure impressed with your passion on this!!! But like I said... I will probably post other topics that get your dander up.....not that I will mean to.... just seems we see things differently. I don't see anything wrong with posting "news"... or factual events that happen.... this forum is full of controversy... that is what makes this site so popular Religious bigotry is the single biggest risk the world has. It should never be encouraged, articles like that encourage it i dont see where the surprise at my passon on this is, perhaps because of the bigotry that exists between catholics and protestants here i have a little more personal insight but thats all.

wunarmdscissor Posted January 14, 2005 #34 Share Posted January 14, 2005 why are u insulting me???? I never insulted you or nxt2hvn , in fact this disagreement we were having was absolutley nothing to do with you. It was involving a post that nxt2hvn made regarding an incident that i directly questioned her about and u got involved , ive actually tried to not respond to your comments as i was discussing it with nxt2hvn not you. My comments are very lucid and in my opinion understandable. Like i sed bigotry is terrible in any form and inciting it is just as bad, by posting that article , unwittingly or not nxt2hvn was giving fascists and bigots a mouth piece which i disagree with .

girty1600 Posted January 14, 2005 #41 Share Posted January 14, 2005 I was just asking both of you, nicely, to calm down a bit because I thought this was a silly matter to fight over. You want me to but out, wun? I will, I thought these were public forums. Perhaps, if you don't want people butting in you should make your debate with nxt2hvn private through pm's.

Gulf_Breeze Posted January 14, 2005 #43 Share Posted January 14, 2005 Seems that blood just got to boiling over a simple case of poor customer service. You don't have to serve a customer just because they wear a military uniform. Not good for business, but it's their perogative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nxt2Hvn Posted January 14, 2005 Author #45 Share Posted January 14, 2005 Nxt2Hvn was clearly trying to stop people shopping in that guy's shop, however she didnt mention exactly where the shop was, she just mentioned he was middle eastern. that says it all for me!!! 449669[/snapback] First of all.. I wasn't trying to stop anyone from doing anything!... I don't know where the store is.. if you will note the "SOURCE"... it came from snopes. It is just news... that's all.... nothing else!!!!!!

Homer Posted January 14, 2005 #46 Share Posted January 14, 2005 Why does Nxt2Hvn have to be criticized so much for posting an article? If someone disagrees with either the contents of the article or because it was ever posted, then say your comment once and move on. Anything further should be through PM.

Babs Posted January 14, 2005 #47 Share Posted January 14, 2005 (edited) We have a family from India here running a convenient store and when 911 hit nobody in town would shop him. In fact, all the way up and down the pike nobody would shop any foreigners running these places. This family has almost gone bankrupt. I shopped there as I am not prejudiced and felt that they were Americans and didn't do anything. But that is how it is in life. The situation you write about wouldn't happen here NXT, I can assure you. Edited January 14, 2005 by Babs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nxt. shouldn't let anyone stop her from posting and saying what her views are on a topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
