Here is a one question test.

[Tubetwang]

I'll ban myself and leave you with your sad jokes...

[M Fowler]

Tubetwang,

Although I did not like your message at all, and my message about whites being the minority was without merit so I was wrong with that statement, we are all entitled to opinions and such.

I would hope that we don't have to go as far as you leaving this great forum over a few words. Banning, has that ever been done? Well there was several characters back some time ago. They didn't think people should make Trainwreck clones or use the circuits in any amp.

Stick around and built some amps and I think I will bannish my self from getting caught up in any social, moral, religious or political discussions from now on.

Sorry I opened a can of worms.

This joke if taken in the correct context has nothing to do with ethnicity or gender. It questions the moral judgments of the media, photo journalism in this instance. A normal person would not disregard the value of human life and try to save whoever was in danger, not worry about what film to use to win a Pulitzer.

This fits under "discussion to discuss music, girls, life, etc.", that's life.

I'll refrain from posting any further "humor" so as not to offend.

Again sorry if I offended anybody's sensitivities.

[Structo]

Geez, some people have thin skins.

Gary, I didn't think it was that bad of a joke.

Although perhaps some might be offended by it.

Can't we all just get along?

[drhulsey]

... lot of folks on this here amp forum would like to hang The President elected...

Heaven forbid! Then Biden would be president

... then proceed to shoot all the Blacks and Hispanics and bomb the abortion clinics...

Who said anything about race. I didn't vote for Obama because he was a liberal, not because he is mixed race, and you don't even know my opinion on abortion. It might surprise you. I acknowledge without reservation the historic nature of electing a person of color to the presidency, but I might have preferred Colin Powell or Allen Keyes. And I'll challenge you to match up with me on who's done more free service for Hispanics

...and finish the day at a Church's B.B.Q...

I must confess..... I do love barbecue

...China would get the territory.

Prejudiced against orientals, are we

...I didn't think it was that bad of a joke...

Not as bad as some told about Bush

I'll ban myself...

Now 'twang. We're just havin' a little uncivil political discussion here. Nobody wants lose your input... Not unless you go talkin' heresy– like promoting solid state guitar amps Now, 'fess up I'll bet you told a few Bush/Republican/conservative jokes over the last eight years. ¿Verdad?
Tubetwang is too valuable a member here to lose his input on ANYTHING I'm happy to take the barbs in the spirit of discussion. I don't have thin skin

[Andy Le Blanc]

A good friend of mine has a favorite quip, every time issues of a moral, political or
legal nature pop up in the coarse of discussion or we pass an officer in the middle
of a safety mobility meeting.

He say's " My father went to war in Germany to fight the Nazi's, every now
and again it looks like we lost"

I think we hold elections just to find people to throw crap at, and then hold
them up for ourselves to be offended at "look at the crap".

Be thankful for the people that call you out on your crap.

American politics is one huge septic tank, the big chunks float to the top.

No matter what party their squeezed from.

A ... friend of mine has a favorite quip...

Sometimes I drop back to my favorite adage,
"Just remember: they're ALL politicians "
George Bush and Bill Clinton have more in common with each other than they do with you and me
Sadly, the government continues to act like BIG BROTHER rather than faithful servant

Now that IS funny!
