You’re starting to slip there, chummer. All I did was point out a spelling error. Where you got all that stuff about “decimating your opinion”, to say nothing of the KKK and voting Republican, I dunno.

But try to hold it together, eh?

“My complaint is, however, that in this day and age our constitutional rights are being blatainly violated.”

Yet when my First Amendment Rights were violated during this election and I was not allowed to my freedom of political expression, he was the first to file a grievance in support of the unconstitutional rule. So you are one of two things:

1. A stooge who never wrote those grievances and was simply used.
2. A hypocrite who has no real beliefs or morals.

Which is it?

My mama? no she’s not a llama or a lama. But she’s votin Obama.

Is your mama a Llama?

I apologize everyone, this day on I’m voting for the KKK…oops I mean republican…

Indeed, as I understand it, a “llama” is a species related to the camel that lives in South America. A “lama”, however, is monk in the Tibetian Buddhist tradition, and not in any way to be confused with a furry pack animal.

Then again, a devout Buddhist who has lived in Tibet might know better than myself of such issues.

You never cease to amaze. I appreciate the spotlight, truly, but it is really unnecessary. I am not sure what the MCC’s image has to do with this, considering it was posted on my own accord.

But anyways, if you must know, no I am not pro-China and unlike your statements I am personally very Pro-Tibetan independence; not just as a devout Vipassana Buddhist but also as someone who has actually lived in Tibet.

Why did I write this note you might ask? Well unlike you I actually have quite a strong background in Tibetan history, and if you were to know anything about Tibet, you would in fact know it was ruled as a Feudalist Monarchy until the Chinese took over (considering the Dalai Lama was a mere child and his stewards had control of the country). I was simply illustrating the irony that under the Dalai Lama’s regime people were being pulled on the streets and executed just like they are today…I kind of took this as a point to contemplate within myself and thought others might too.

And also Mr Jin, I am not anti-American. Not only has every male in my family served in the military, but I also think it is the greatest country in the world. My complaint is, however, that in this day and age our constitutional rights are being blatainly violated (See the Patriot’s Act and the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act and the Military Commisions Act for details). I find irony that those in power are rich (like George Bush) yet those who go to fight and die for our country are poor.

I also hope for atleast my sake Sean, that you don’t continue to say I’m anti-American, considering I am middle-eastern american and ever since our invasion of Afghanistan we’ve been illegally roping up and detaining middle-easterners in our own country.

Mostly that “anti-imperialism” is code for “anti-Americanism” and “anti-Semitism”.

I don’t …. I can’t … head exploding from stupidity of argument.

I decided that since the Chinese were neither American nor Jewish that the protests would be minor at best. It seems that my instincts were right.

Good catch, Sean. It’d be interesting to get the MCC’s official stance on Tibet. I predict it’d be a “condemnations of imperialism everywhere, not only in Tibet, but in Palestine and Iraq as well.” Of course, they could just go all out and declare, as the illustrious George Galloway did, that “Tibet was always part of the Chinese motherland, and has been rescued from the mists of obscurantism under the demi- God Dalai Lama by the Chinese revolution”.

It seems that lining up behind China on the Tibet question is pretty standard “anti-imperialist” strategy these days.
