She, food/fitness nut, married him and had his kids despite him being a bloody sociopath drug user, why wouldn't he like her?

Penguins can murder each other, but they can't gang up on a rapist seal and beak-stab it to death?

Quote
On Monday morning, the American Civil Liberties Union and National Rifle Association published a joint op-ed in the Washington Times urging the Senate to pass legislation that would limit the government's domestic spying powers. It was a meaningful push from two powerful groups that—as the groups themselves noted—rarely agree on anything. And the support came just a day before the Senate is scheduled to take a key (and hotly contested) vote Tuesday on the measure, whose supporters titled it the "USA Freedom Act."

Hours after the op-ed went up on the Times site, however, it disappeared. The link to where the op-ed once appeared now tells readers, "This story is no longer available on the site."

It's also more importantly half of the name of the currency we're dealing with.  The name is "bit"-coin.  It always seems like people conveniently forget to mention that the name of the proposed new term is IN THE NAME OF THE ACTUAL COIN!

Which is why some new users assume 1bit==1Bitcoin.

And "old" ones like me, who never saw this "bits" term before it was debated on BCT. How many bitches are in a bitchcoin?

The only person who decided to label you a murder was yourself, nobody else ever thought that.
TheButterZone, no your reputation has not been irreparably damaged. It wasn't damaged at all until you started making a fool out of yourself in this very thread.

Speaking for all of humankind's brains? Brilliant!

Where was that contract where I agreed to set an example for the forum? Oh, it's right next to the one that said that as a decent human being, I agree not to libel people as murderers, borderline sociopaths with narcissistic personality disorder, etc. (and then play the victim and further accuse my victims of "misuse".)

Nemo me impune lacessit.

The reading comprehension force is strong with this forum, LMFAO.

Both you and TBZ were using your position on the default trust list to protect your reputations against claims against it.

Exactly and this is the irony and hypocrisy here. People abuse the trust system then complain when they're removed from it.

...

PS: I either forgot or was unaware I was on default trust. Not that there absolutely has to be a crosslinking, but theymos didn't rate me on http://bitcoin-otc.com/viewratingdetail.php?nick=TheButterZone&sign=ANY&type=RECV - if it will stop Wardrick's libelous posting pattern, I have no attachment to being on DT.

Well, this topic was a massive waste of time and energy. I'm not on Default Trust (#19-20), nor am I/would I be attached to being on it (#4).

and then there's this:

Trust ratings are intended to be an indication of trust and neither the behavior or arms nor Wardrick are any reflection of their ability to be trusted, no matter how immature their actions were. Unless you have reason to believe that someone has scammed, is trying to scam or is going to try to scam then negative trust is not appropriate.

My rating (have you even read it?) is absolutely an indication of my distrust of an aggressive libeler who offered nothing but a hollow BS apology incapable of reversing their own damage. The internet caches everything, dontcha know. So, Quickseller, would you like to have Wardrick run a "joke" scam on the community by trying to paint YOU as a murderer, drug dealer, and/or borderline sociopath with narcissistic personality disorder next? I hope you have absolutely nothing to ever offer bitcoindom as "Quickseller", or have a backup nick like Wardrick has Graven, that you can rinse and repeat with.

TheButterZone, no your reputation has not been irreparably damaged. It wasn't damaged at all until you started making a fool out of yourself in this very thread.

Revisionist history BS, the First Class ticket to ignore lists!

Be happy that Obama's major bombing focus is outside the country.

What happens when he gets some other country to make the machines of war so that he doesn't need us any more? Is anybody so foolish to think that he wouldn't bomb at home if he was sufficiently supplied from elsewhere?

Smiley

I'm always amazed by all the Obama bashing that goes around here.

Only select millionaires and above, who are evil sociopaths, have ultimate control over how taxes are spent, so you write carte blanche for evil by paying them.

I bet the people belly aching about taxes are the people that barely pay any taxes.  

The people who barely pay any taxes pay tens, hundreds of millions of dollars for lawyers, lobbyists, and bribes, so they do not have to fear death or imprisonment, and therefore no reason to "bellyache".
Not true. The people who pay little taxes are those who vote for more entitlements and make a huge deal about even tiny amounts of potential entitlement reform (meaning the democrats)

Are these "entitlements" exemptions from sales, alcohol, cigarette, marijuana, gas taxes?

Seeing more new replies to my posts... his/her attempt to apologize was after the damage to my reputation was already irrevocably done, beyond the capacity of any apology to reverse it.

P.S. My craigslist posts started getting flagged down obsessively yesterday. Coincidence?

What CAN governments do? Anything humanly possible.

What DO governments do? Not provide national defense, not maintain roads and bridges, not prevent companies from selling potentially deadly food that people assume is safe to consume, not respect all human rights, etc.
