Mods, can we shut this down?
Bmore, I like you, sincerely, but this board cop routine, constantly accusing others of violating the CoC, is obnoxious. As to the "lazy straw man" accusation, you have nothing to support that assertion. I have consistently, throughout the years, stated that comparing Americans to extreme organizations is inflammatory and serves zero constructive purpose. Then along comes the perfect example of the behavior I consistently condemn. This thread exists to do nothing but reinforce that and to point out, using a real world example, how harmful these comparisons are. If GMDino posts yet another in his slew of law enforcement basing posts/threads, is he deliberately targeting me?
Based on your first post in this thread you apparently feel the same, or at least in a very similar fashion, on this subject as I do. Maybe that consensus will lead to some condemnation of that behavior in the future?
As to the rest, my point has been reinforced, again. Comparing people to Nazis, Isis or the Taliban serves no legitimate purpose other than to inflame and label those compared as analogous to such awful people.
