Casualty Count.

Stop toying with me, SD! We both know that the attacks never even happened at all! I made the whole thing up to terrorize the people of America; I love to strike fear into people's hearts and make them cower in their homes! Muahahahaha!

But as worthy an adversary as you are, apparently you have your weaknesses! You fear AIDS? LOL! It's a fiction I created in 1980 because people were having way too much fun fucking all the time now that moralistic taboos about extramarital sex had evaporated. No one gets to have fun unless I say so!

You're damn right I'm a terrorist! Just shut your pie-hole and don't spread it around to the good people of America. They're starting to think that I'm actually concerned about their well-being. LOL! And don't worry, I have plenty of lies cooking up about chemical weapons threats. I even created this great character named "Osama bin Laden" for all of America to blame these fake attacks on!

Hoo... sometimes I really kill me. *clutching side from laughing too hard*

so would that also make him and ppman the anti-todd?

btw, where is that guy? what happened to todd? did you guys stuff him in a trunk while i was gone, or did you play hide and seek with him and forget to look for him?

I'm more concerned with the neutron bomb KM has been fucking with in her basement!

WHAT??!! I NEED those! (tossing out the thermal nuclear devices into the dumpster...Holding my box out to KM and giving her my biggest smile...)

 

[Spinaroonie]

I love ya man. This is the same kind of heat I used to take. Get back in the pan!

I think he has a point about the press and the general impressions it gave and the way it allows us to formulate our own conclusions.

It ain't news if it's good news. Then it's one of those human-touch stories that gets aired in the last 10 minutes.

 

[SINthysist]

Don't bother with the liks. I did the same thing. All I ever got was, I don't trust your source, I ain't got the time to chase it down, and besides, you're wrong...

 

[SINthysist]

One more thing

unless you are really bored stop posting in responce to trolls. Most people do that so you won't 1 thier stories, or so that the rest of the board will think thier real handle is still a swell person. It only encourages that sort of thing.

the media sounds like a clean and also sober version of yayati......

Wow... how.... boring really.

The media is the great manipulator, it has molded your thoughts, and told you how you want to be. It tells you what to eat, what to drink, what to wear and how to act.

It's been going along for a long time, remember how they were in Farenheit 451?

I don't know why I'm doing this, but...

SD, why don't we conduct a little thought experiment?

Let's pretend we could go back in time to six months ago, before these attacks. You and I are at a bar having a beer and the on the television comes on a news expose on the woeful state of airline security along with growing evidence of worldwide terrorist networks training people to kill Americans. At the end of this story the reporter warns the viewer of the increasing threats to US airline safety.

Answer me this one question and I'll leave you alone:

Would this news story have been an example of the gratuitous fear-mongering you're complaining about?

(if you don't get my point, here it is a bit plainer: do we have to get hit with an attack of apocalyptic proportions before you're willing to pull your head out of the sand and stop denying legitimate threats?)

I think you're oblivious to the most obvious fact (one a 5 year-old would grasp readily): people are trying to kill us. The availability of weapons of mass destruction is at an all-time high and just getting higher.

Motivation + Means = Danger

What part of that equation don't you understand?

Those parts above are depressingly realistic. Sigh...

Wag the Dog was excellent tho'...

Depends how it was done. What perspective they take. Yes, people are trying to kill us. But with all things there are reasonable risks and unreasonable risks. Perhaps it's pretty reasonable that they do have a "Dirty bomb" but is it reasonable to say that they have one of the rarest diseases on earth, one that no longer grows naturally?

Gee, botulism kills... I hope they don't have a terrorist working the line at Del Monte.
