Do you mind staying in topic and not impeding the flow of this thread please. If you do have a problem I suggest to consult those with authority to appraise your situation.
Now, getting back on topic.........

True. Unfortunately, the Kernal does not adhere to this, and therein lies the problem. When someone DOES put forth a differing point of view, or points out that his "proof" isn't worth the words wasted on it because of it's dubious source, he reverts to "you're all repugnants and racists", and other drivel. There is no "montage of ideas", it's the Kernals way, or the highway. If you don't agree, you get the brunt of his disgusting diatribes.
Wrong. I've disagreed with him hundreds of times. I don't get in pissing contests with him. What you should be looking at is what people do when he writes something.
When you flame as many people as the Kernal does, you bring the wrath of those you have flamed. He flails because he has no legs to stand on. As you point out below, if he can't handle himself in a fight, he needs to shut up or put up.
He does put up, it's just not the type of putting you like. He posts crap articles sometimes, but this is not one of them as I've shown but nobody noticed because they were too busy flaming like faries.
Encourage it? Excuse me? Let me remind you of what you said in your previous post....
You said:
"First, I think most of you who oppose the Colonel are a festering bunch of whiney bitches. "
If that's not an inflammatory way to start your diatribe, I don�t know what is...you then went on with...
"Quit with the (c) tactics. Taking it to the Mods only shows that you can't handle (c) on your own. "
I think that says it all. You think those that wish to speak to the mods about an embarrassment to their ranks should not, and tell them not to do it. No encouragement there, that's DIScouragement. Learn something along the way? You mean agree with your point of view, just as the Kernal demands...
I could give a rat's ass if you agree with me or not. I only require a relatively open mind or I'll just shoot the crap out of your case. I only discourage tattling, not excersizing your right to speak your piece. Hell, speak it, but don't run crying when you don't like the way someone else runs an area you visit.

Well, you've just shown what a total moron you are. Walking vagina, eh? You must be, what, 12? 13 years old? You REQUIRE??? REQUIRE??? You don't REQUIRE ANYTHING, bungholio. Just like the Kernal, you have proven that you have no idea what you are talking about, and that you can't have a decent debate without going off on a vulgar tangent when the fact that you are a dumbass is thrown in your face. Discourage "tattling"? Sorry, that's not your call to make. People are sick of the Kernal's antics all over the board, and the fact that he's a mod is an embarrassment. Period. And nobody is talking about the way anything in this area is "run". The Kernal doesn't "run" anything, and for that matter, neither do you. So instead of shooting your mouth off and telling people what they should or should not do, try to post a few coherent lines. And you better be careful. If the Kernal stops suddenly, your head will be so far up his jazz you'll need the Jaws of Life to get out....
Little prick hypocrite....

Am I reading the wording of that quote correctly?
Did he actually call you a "prick"?
Dude Colonel....name-calling is not prohibited in any forum.
You got a bigger 'heart' and have more tolerance than it seems many give you credit for.

OK, so i was participating in this threads topic earlier, and now i come back to find a Colonel bash fest....hmm
Now i agree with most that Colonel does not usually post anything of worth, and in fact resorts to a lot of inflamatory baiting tactics....
I almost NEVER agree with Colonels posts, but
As an American, I believe in Freedom of Speech, and I would fight to protect Colonels rights to post whatever senseless drivel he pleases....
The calls for his expulsion amount to censorship....
If you dont like what he says, why give him more creedance and attention by acknowleging his remarks...just skip him and move on. Trying to raise a stink only plays into his hands. (it is fun to poke him, but not a good debate tactic)
I know this is a private site that is both moderated and censured, but i feel that especially in the mud pit, the owners/operators of ATS have provided as free of speech environment as they can...in order to DENY IGNORANCE. HOW CAN WE DENY IGNORANCE IF ITS SILENCED?
Colonel is brave to come in and post stuff he KNOWS he will be attacked on....If we ran him out, he'd just go to a site where only those with his opinion are expressed.
How useful is that exchange of information between similar views...
At least here, multiple styles and opinions can be expressed, I enjoy reading opinions i dont agree with....especially the really wacky ones!
Let both the ignorant and the wise speak, listen to all, and then decide.

What? You mean you didn't think that was funny? Geez, it was funny in the infantry, so I thought it would be about as dumbed down as you'd need
You must be, what, 12? 13 years old? You REQUIRE??? REQUIRE??? You don't REQUIRE ANYTHING, bungholio.
Yes, I REQUIRE. Sorry if I don't have time for every slack jawed 15 year old who thinks they learned something in their textbooks. If people are intelligent then I'll debate them, if people act like you, then I # on them. You should really get some standards.
Just like the Kernal, you have proven that you have no idea what you are talking about, and that you can't have a decent debate without going off on a vulgar tangent when the fact that you are a dumbass is thrown in your face.
Hmm, Don't know what I'm talking about.... or you don't get it....
Well, I know what I'm talking about, so it must be the latter. I'm not sure that you understand what tangent means. I stayed inline with what I was talking about. You guys are still a bunch of girls.
Discourage "tattling"? Sorry, that's not your call to make. People are sick of the Kernal's antics all over the board, and the fact that he's a mod is an embarrassment.
Yeah maybe so, but there are plenty of people who aren't and have been around a hell of a lot longer than you. And by the way, it's absolutely my call to make. Who says people can't assess and label a situation, YOU?
Period. And nobody is talking about the way anything in this area is "run". The Kernal doesn't "run" anything, and for that matter, neither do you.
