Ok and what exactly does this prove?
Ironbite-as it didn't happen yesterday and it has nothing to do with religion or philosophy.

Oi! You can't just go copy-pasting an entire article as that violates copyright, which is why it's against our own Rules. Lighthorseman, you are being given an Official Warning for this.
Also punted over to P&G where this sort of article belongs.

No...you didn't. You copy/pasted the entire article. Also you put it in R&P instead of P&G. And you gave nothing of your own thoughts about why we should care about this article.
Ironbite-so...what does this have to do with the 4th of July and America?

Is it not also against the rules to post links without some sort of commentary or discussion starting point from the OP?
What is the point of you posting this lhm? What is it that you wish to discuss?

No...you didn't. You copy/pasted the entire article. And gave the source, and put it in a quote box. That was an accident Au contrare, the thread title... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarcasm because Americans have been known to act as though their collective effluent doesn't stink, that they are better than other people, and a shining beacon unto others. Yet stuff like this still happens. Just a little sic transit gloria mundi reminder. |

You do know we aren't mind readers right? Even for pamphlet-sized ones such as your's.
Ironbite-come on dude...you're smarter then this.

* Due to copyright law, you should not post entire news stories. From the rules Am I going blind? Yes...yes you are. It's been modus operendi from day one that you don't post the full article, you give at least a bit of a lead in for discussion, and you don't blatantly do something this stupid. Ironbite-again...I don't know what your game is right now. |

The thread title which is blatant flame-baiting? That one?
You're doing a bang-up job on posting threads that either are inconsequential or simply a way to get people riled up. Good job.
A flame-baiting title is not 'commentary'. It's flame-baiting.
Yes, it's very sad that the Native Americans have to deal with racism just as much as muslims and everything else. But really, there isn't much commentary to be done.

Read the entirety of The Rules, lighthorseman. Also the "guidelines" are still a part of The Rules, and violating copyright is also part of " Do not break the law." Really self explanatory. ETA - Oh, and please show me how the thread title isn't flame baiting, which is also something that's against The Rules. |

Well, given that it was cited and quoted, I didn't think it WAS "breaking the law". Its meant to be confronting, but thats not the same as flame baiting. How is it any different to all the threads with Texas in the title? |
