Oh contrare bonjour, let Nypol have some more rope. I myself, am really interested if he can finish on his feet, and then let us all know who actually killed Kennedy!

Higher education rocks!

Sorry TR if this post is off subject. I'll hop back into my hidesite now.

Then you have no understanding of disinformation, or leading the back path. Both of these techniques were used very well by the Nazis, Fascists and Communists during their respective rises to power. In many cases in order to raise political and social ire and to bolster their causes, any of these groups would create a sense of havoc or terror in the guise of the 'enemy' - thus it leads by historical example that this criminal groups intent is to raise claim that the 'offenders' are of the ilk so ascribed by the criminal group. Ergo, if the swastika is hateful to this criminal group, then this criminal group is not Nazi, rather leftist (read communist/socialist/democrat) hoping to discredit those they have desecrated, not call to honor the symbol they chose to plant. Am I moving to fast for you here? This is basic political science and pot stirring. Therefore in the case presented had it been perpetrated by Nazis we would expect either the Star of David, the Hammer and Sickle, or the Moon and Star - one desecrates with what one wants to discredit - or defaces a symbol of that hatred with his own symbol. since the flags were burned, then replaced with swastikas, it leads away from naziism, wouldn't you agree?

I hope this little rant cleared up why I used communism rather than naziism in my previous statement #4.

I see the horse is dead. That poor last hoof is flapping and everybody is trying to shoot the shoe off.

Just sitting here shaking my head.

In that statement it appeared, to me at least, that you were trying to say that you have more experience dealing with the ideology in question. Saying that it could have been lefties trying to discredit fascists doesn't tie in.

Ok - you need some real world experience and a few Liberal Arts courses like philosophy - quit thinking linearly, learn how to join thoughts of equal importance yet slightly different wavelengths into a more fully formed whole. read some Hegel - especially the thesis, antithesis, synthesis portions of his work. not everything will be spelled out and handfed to you, learn to think, not spout off by rote what others say. THINK, PONDER, see how a series of seemingly disparate parts lead to a cohesive whole....

surface messages are not always the full answer, ok?

TR I give up - can you please try to explain what I tried to point out? I may have used words that were too big for the pseudointellectual nypol.

Even better, can we just feed him to NDD?

I'm pretty sure that the training and experience you have as QP's lends you to have more patience with the slow folk than us regular civilians because I'm ready to burst. My 2 year old catches on quicker.

Pete,
Was I fairly clear? Should I have just pointed him toward Mao, Lenin, Marx and Stalin for the vagaries of disinformation and use of terrorism?

Nah, been through graduate school - the profs there could actually be worse since they are engaged in their own liberal shill. They feed into the delusion that the student is the smartest person on the planet and no one else has EVER come up with a good idea and we're all waiting for them to get out of school and save the world by using their prof's ideas.

It takes working for someone who is much smarter and more experienced for a few years, who isn't afraid to tell you that you are being stupid and allows you to trip all over yourself before things sink in.

Good parents who tell you that you're not that smart help too.

ETA - HIGH SCHOOL? I was the smartest person alive in high school. Luckily I didn't come and announce it to a bunch of career professionals who have lived and breathed this since before I was born... whoops.

Answering a question with a question. I heard this explained before "It's just the nerves making his legs quiver like that" he's gone.

From your profile, all-star:

The Hallway is too good for your rucksack. I have a feeling that your rucksack will be found near your head somewhere in the recesses of your fourth point of contact when TS, TR, AM, or NDD stop by....
