No, wasn't aimed at anyone. Just decided to post it cos I saw some racism on TV at that time.

Please don't stereotype threads just because ignorant people ruin others. If someone balls's it up then attack them, not the thread.

It's a nice calm place to vent frustrations but none of it is aimed at anyone else at the forum in particular.
A sentence or two from each poster but the pet hates are not to be argued.
Try to keep the posts rhetorical.

I was just saying that it looks like we are building up towards one. We were talking about religion, racism, and other things that usually get people pretty testy. Not starting anything/accusing anyone.... Just commenting.

Simple answer if you think "we're" building to it.. stop posting in it.

I should think people can be mature enough to decide whether they want to show themselves up but lets not all be tarred with the same brush.
Not untill it happens anyway.

No offense but your post could be seen to contain the ingredients to start one.. contraversy n all. Lets just stay on topic and not cry untill it rains.

*sigh*

It never just...rains here. That's another one of my "pet hates"...I want more rain damnit! Gray skies are what I live for. Every time we only get a slight bit of rain, and a shitload of lightning which means computer gets unplugged. I want rain.

Iowa sucks --->(pet hate)

I hate how it never does any of that stuff here, were lucky to get a bloody dust storm for something interesting here in the Darling Downs(QLD).

I also hate Anarchist Protesters (Thanks to the news tonight).

I miss thunderstorms, don't get many in NZ (3 a year) . Where i grew up we used to have them pretty much every night, power outages left and right, but who cares when you can sit on the veranda and watch lightning over the hill behind your house.

Can't just sit around when we get one here, i gotta go outside and watch them coming in.

Whats wrong with recycling and restricting the use of guns? Recyling is sensible since we dont create as much waste and guns perpetuate violence.

Guns don't perpetuate violence, they just lie there until someone picks it up and perpetuates violence with it.

But agreed, some degree of gun controls are required.

not as much as you think....aside for aluminum, it requires several processes to "renew" resources. by the time it is done, you have had to say for paper, shred it bleach it and transport it....by the end you have created waste in an attempt to uncreate waste. In theory, the process is a nice idea but not effecient enough, nor really can be to be useful. there is a great show and a relatively decent book about the fact people are mislead about it "Penn and teller's BULLSH*T" has the name of the book... as for gun control people perpetuate violence... they would use rocks if they wished, if you take away guns they would just use knives. i like guns . but this is not a forum for a debate on this i think....i was more putting it up as a joke about the comment that it was becoming flame bait. I agree with the pet peeves as i put them, i just think i will be less subtile next time in my humour.

Guns don't kill people, bleeding caused by open chest wounds kill people. If only people could learn how not to bleed...
