i'm a vioLent pacifist

[sniffa]

are you?

[MostlyLurks]

1. Absolutely.

I'm only a pacifist where state-on-state mass-infliction-of-casualties death-and-destruction are concerned. I'm all for pounding the crap out of somebody with me meaty hamfists.

[sniffa]

6. mmmmmmm

meaty hamfists

[skylarmae]

8. well put! What if you have arthritis in your hands? I need a good

second choice. Got any ideas. The thought of 'invisible ordinance' always attracted me, when people act a fool in public or when mothers let their babies throw fits in the store. I could go on, but I digress.

[MostlyLurks]

15. Meaty hamfeet? I'm just thinkin' out loud here... n/t

[sniffa]

17. oooh, even better for me!

[Phillycat]

2. No.

But I do like to be spanked.

[sniffa]

11. kinky

grrrr

[meegbear]

3. I'm fighting a war for peace.

[demnan]

4. I'm not a pacifist

But I don't believe in unnecessary war either.

[shesemsmom]

9. SAME HERE

[vi5]

5. Is that code for a DRI fan?

Violent! Pacification!


Sorry. Flashback.

[BigMcLargehuge]

7. Yeah, I'll pass my fist upside the head of someone

who requests it via deed or word

[sui generis]

10. maybe not violent

but not afraid to throw down either. The world is an ugly and violent place once you stray away from the "west", and it can be an ugly and violent place here if you are a member of certain minority groups, or just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Be paranoid? No. Fight for peace, yes. Send our children to war for oil? Hell no. Kill 100,000 civilians to liberate them? Oh no.

13. i haven't used in vioLence

in over 10 years (mostLy to keep me outta jaiL)

i often jest that i am a vioLent pacifist for this reason.
anyhow, i was perusing FR on the "civiL war" thread and aLL the posts of how they'LL kiLL us, and that we're a bunch of wimps and pacifists, but we're aLso nasty and hatefuL.

they shouLd be carefuL what they wish for, for i'm not a pacifist when it comes to defending ;)

[sui generis]

18. amen brother - count me in

We fought bigots in the south before and won, during the civil war, and during the civil rights era.

This time we just need to make sure the lesson takes.

[ScreamingMeemie]

12. No...I'm more of an enthusiastic procrastinator...

:hi:

[sniffa]

16. i empathize with your apathy

[jukes]

14. violence

is not the answer to every problem.

but it's fun, & quicker than litigation.

[madinmaryland]

19. That's the second oxymoron that i've seen on DU

in the last two days! The other was "Redneck Socialist"

[sniffa]

20. compassionate conservative

angry amish


i'm sure there's more. :P
