Racism in the United States as the World Watches

[Zaac]

Do you actually read your won posts?

I read my own posts. And fully stand by what I wrote. The man has anger issues. It bleeds through the screen.

So you do not see your posts as coming across caustic and angry?

Rev didn't you say it's not helping if you keep poking it with a stick?

For anyone watching, I want to point out some red flags from Carpro. These are things one should always look for when placing someone in a position of trust - I.e. a church position such as counselor, teacher, or entering a relationship, etc..
First, please note that he edited his post to take out where he denies acting abusive and was instead treating me like a "recalcitrant child," among other things. Here are the red flags exhibited thus far:

1. Devalues you
2. Claims you are stupid, dumb, etc., whether by direct or indirect name-calling
3. Does not treat you as a fellow adult, and places him/herself in the role of adult and you as the child
4. Blames others for his poor treatment of them
5. Does not listen or show interest in your opinion or feelings
6. Must be right and requires no disagreement, often reverting to "punishing" or "correcting to their side" via shaming
7. Tells you how to act
8. Does not respect your boundaries. For example, you do not like how they are acting and ask them to leave you alone for a while, but instead of leaving they may redouble their behavior
9. Blame you for how they are acting. "I wouldn't have, but you made me because you are stupid, worthless, etc.."

Etc.. Those are a lot of red flags in a short amount of time.
Generally, I'd expect the next step, after being called out, to be attempts at making himself the victim and threatening that my calling him out is causing him severe distress for which he needs help, which is an attempt to discredit you and draw others to their side.

There are many red flags, some of which are simply warnings and may not mean much of anything on their own, but when you start seeing them come together like this, there should be no question. RUN!

Brilliantly written, but mostly garbage and 100% self-serving.

All to keep from explaining the absurdity of your contentions concerning the constitution.

Really, if you feel you have no protections under the constitution as you said, why would you stay here. Leave.

If I felt that way, I would leave in a heartbeat.

After all it's just a pretty piece of paper and means nothing...at least to you and your children. Get out now. How can you stand to live here?

He's just prodding a pimple (skin troll)

Rev didn't you say it's not helping if you keep poking it with a stick?

He did tell us all that at one time or another. Nevertheless, you know that a scab, or a blackhead (this was NOT racist in nature, just what we call the black grease build up in a skin pore that develops into a pimple and worse if left unattended - see: http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/71615.php), or pimple is always something we are intrigued by and just want to poke and inch and prod once in while! It is hard to ignore something so ugly and hideous. Even the best of us will fall to temptation and give it attention!

So, go for it Rev. He is difficult to ignore after a while! :smilewinkgrin:

That is the pot calling the kettle black, zaac? You are not only racist, but a hypocrite! What a shame that you are allowed to spew this venomous spite, bitterness, vindictive speech and malevolence on the board, post after post after post!

It's like playing Whack A Mole! Well in his case it's Whack A Troll!:laugh:

No, it doesn't. That's your spin.

Find another strawman. Spinning what I say is not going to work for you.

(This is actually a bit more on topic here than it was in that thread, and demands to continue to be addressed).

How is what I said ("it's all about the PARTY") "spinning" what you said? Thanks for finally clarifying why you were calling it a "straw man", which would be an arguent I set up, and then knocked down. But you're the one who kept mentioning the Democrats, and the uncertain statement of Johnson (as if it single handedly proved your whole point). You had earlier said "You do realize the democrat party is the most racist organization to ever exist in this country, don't you? Father to the KKK and all such racist groups since." I'm not the one who said that; I was just responding to it.

But you never addressed why the KKK and all those other groups and the Southern Democratic leadership would agree to suddenly decide to give the blacks trillions of dollars, just to get "votes".

If the party is not your point, then what was? You often throw these factoids out there in the discussion, but aren't clear what your conclusion is, so when someone follows it where it's naturally leading and draws a conclusion, you accuse them of misrepresenting you.
