You did but you felt the need to throw in a quick jab in the process. I'm not sure what the purpose of this was as he asked a legitimate question and this was posted in the grow forum. Not the activisim forum or political forum.
In addition to this words are words and should not matter who has said them if they are true:
Whether it is a democracy or a fascist dictatorship or a Parliament or a Communist dictatorship, the people can always B brought 2 the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All U have 2 do is tell them they R being attacked & denounce the pacifists 4 lack of patriotism & exposing the country 2 danger. It works the same way in any country.
Look at our current international situation in the United States... do you not see any parallels?

Referenced together I find it offensive. But, I'm just as ok with writing what I wrote, as those are that continue to advance the nazi rhetoric.
Boy are you way out there? You are accusing him of Nazi rhetoric based on WHO said it, not by the meaning behind the words that they've said. There are wise men all across the globe who say things that are VERY much true. Not all of these people are the virtuous champions you would want them to be; but it doesn't change the meaning behind what they say.
If you found offense with this again, this was a problem on your own part not the OP. People have labeled me as a conservative in the politics forums and take any oppurtunity to take a jab at me. Yet here I am able to see clear as day what his signature actually means.

To acuse me of taking the writings from his/her own post out of context is humorous. It's in green and black. Do I lose my right to free speech, just because the statements are in his sig, or am I supposed to sit back and witness the hate and racism continue uncontested?
You did take it out of context. You are merely looking at the source of the quote and not the quote itself. You didn't lose the right to free speech just as you also haven't lost the right to be in the wrong. Please point out the EXACT racism and hate that was exemplified by him.
You are really grasping at straws here, but feel free to go for it.

Hardly likely. This is America, right? Did I say Flying Imam couldn't write what's there? No. I pointed out that I wouldn't, and why.
No but when you say something that doesn't make any sense you can't expect people to Point it back out to you. Just as you say, this is America right?

Had I seen his/her post earlier in the political forum regarding Biden's pick, I would have addressed this there. (that's the best appology I'll offer)
A pathetic apology at best and one that no one here asked for but thank you for the farce of an effort.

Do you need me to go on and on? While these are all bad people they have admittingly at one time in their life have said things that are VERY true.
Again, you jumping on FlyingImam is unfounded. You took it out of context and this is your own fault, not his.
