Anyone talked with Jefferson of late?
His last post (as El Jefe) was on 5/17. Sent him a pm days ago, but no response...
I hope he's okay???

I noticed this myself.
Figured he got tired of the commie BS.
"I'm fucking furious, I'm violently angry, and I like it. If you don't know what that feels like then I feel bad for you"
I think the last straw was when El Laton Caliente told him "Yes dear." after he got pissed at people debating Kadmos and I.
What's funny is, he was the biggest instigator of calling us out so he could lay on the verbal abuse. Guess he got jealous.
I kind of miss his weekly "Gaystapo" posts...

As of oligarchy so of tyranny, the end is wealth; (for by wealth only can the tyrant maintain either his guard or his luxury). Both mistrust the people, and therefore deprive them of their arms." -- Aristotle, Book V, 350 B.C.E

I'm sure he's fine. Probably just taking a summer break.
Lord knows we all waste too much time online whiling away on these discussion boards as is...

You know lefty, even when you were imprisoned for the 2nd time, folks here still asked about you, hoping you were okay...and if Kadmos were MIA for a time there would be people here asking if anyone had heard from him, whether he was okay...
It's duly noted that once someone asks about a guy who pissed in both your wheaties, your initial responses are flip and uncaring.
And that is the basic difference between the right and the left...the left hopes their opponents are sick or dead when MIA...the right asks if anyone's heard from them; if they're okay...

He and I used to get along great. We agreed on everything. Then he turned or something. I noticed that he really started insulting me and not the funny haha kind of insults that other guys do, but the kind where you scratch your head and go "Huh?" "Is this the same guy?" I even once argued that we AGREED on the topic, so why were we fighting. I just started ignoring him when he became El Jefe. All that constant avatar changing signaled something going on in his life that wasn't good. Hope the best for him. But then, doesn't this forum drives men crazy and then they leave (like Swampdragon?)
He wasn't my "opponent", that would imply some sort of competition, or argument...which at one time he actually did do...long before you got here, we actually had some rather good conversations.
Then he became an asshole troll. Not a minor one, but a guy who's whole role here was to derail threads with rude one liners and insults. He was obnoxious, plan and simple.
So nope, don't miss him. Don't give a rats ass what happened to him, he certainly wouldn't give a rats ass for me, and his general disrespect showed he didn't give a rats ass about the board.
I don't care in the least what his political or social views were, I respect everyone's right to their opinion, and welcome civil discussion of those opinions. I disliked him because he was a dick.
I had no particular wish for him to be sick or dead BTW, I'm just happy he's not here.
Dumbass...you're first long and in depth argument here was with me, regarding Ted Kennedy. I've been a member of GN since 2001.
Of course you don't...the left never cares about anyone but themselves...and that narcissism is why you are vile.
And of course because you're a brilliant mind reader, you can make this unqualified assertion...there's that narcissism showing again.
Some here might be just as happy if you were gone.

If you say so. Was it civil? Maybe you're the one I used to have good arguments with before you turned a bit prickish. Could have sworn Jefferson was a decent guy at some point, but perhaps you are correct and I was wrong.
I care about lots of people. It's got nothing to do with left, right, or whatnot. He was a consistent asshole who added nothing but rude comments in my opinionOf course you don't...the left never cares about anyone but themselves...and that narcissism is why you are vile.
Nope, it's the couple hundred times he told me to fuck off and die, or to kill myself that tipped me off.And of course because you're a brilliant mind reader, you can make this unqualified assertion...there's that narcissism showing again.
That may well be true. But in my defense, at least I treat those who show me a bit of respect, a good deal of respect in turn...or at least civility.Some here might be just as happy if you were gone.

If it were the stray comment here or there, then I would have ignored it. But it got to be every time I posted, or he'd do the crap you do lately and try to drag me into threads I hadn't even commented on.
It got to where it was near impossible to have an actual conversation.
