Forty dead in New Zealand mosque shootings

Capt Gregory Prickett - I don't disagree with you but you slinging the same mud back and forth isn't proving your points or strengthening your arguments. In fact if anything it's just proving my point; it pisses people off which is why we specifically ask for the community to not do it. This isn't a "he did it to me, so I do it back" and "I'll stop when they do." Just don't do it because it just adds to online toxicity that isn't helpful to anyone. Plus then you'll have nothing to worry about if we have to remove posts and suspend accounts.

Capt Gregory Prickett - Go find any examples of me saying anything of the sort Greg. I have never started a post about atheists or gone after them. I disagree with their world view certainly but have also said they are free to believer or not believe as they like. You are a religious bigot and I don't mind calling you one even if Carlos wants to toss me off RP. Your hatred of people that don't believe as you is a stain on this web site. You can promote your beliefs (or lack thereof) without attacking others.

Here is an example of one of your toxic posts just recently:
"Sunday School: A prison in which children do penance for the evil conscience of their parents."—-H.L. Mencken, A Mencken

SSG Carlos Madden - sure, you have the power to kick me off Rally Point. You're apparently OK with the multitude of pro-Christian posts, but you have a problem with posts that exhibit a minority view, and you don't say a word to Cpl Jeff N. when he falsely labels people as religious bigots, or leftists, as he has done repeatedly to me. I'm sick and tired of being called out while those who are Christian and who are on the right can skate without a word from you or other administrators.

Why don't you comment on his rhetoric, instead of focusing solely on mine? This thread started with Jeff personally attacking me, and yet you decide to focus on my conduct. That should tell you something.

Cpl Jeff N. - respectfully, how is that post toxic? Especially considering it’s source?

Mencken wrote, ‘A Book of Burlesques’. Another quote from the same book is:
“Don’t tell me. I have been there. No longer ago than last Tuesday—or was it last Monday?—I went into one of those big restaurants on the Unter den Linden and ordered a small steak, French fried potatoes, a piece of pie and a cup of coffee—and what do you think those thieves charged me for it? Three marks fifty. That’s eighty-seven and a half cents. Why, a man could have got the same meal at home for a dollar.”

Check out the book, consider the source, avoid throwing labels on things. Agree or disagree, it’s certainly thought provoking, for sure. But how is that prior post toxic?

I agree... assuming this is a religiously motivated shooting is rather arrogant and hasty
