Watching the news from Egypt earlier, then happened across this quote on some random site:

If every Islamist was disarmed today there would be peace,
if every Jew were disarmed there would be genocide.

You don't say who said this, so I'll have to assume this rather racist comment is yours.

Actually, in its purest form, Islam is incredibly tolerant. That makes what's going on in the world really bizarre.

That's a horrible quote. Not to mention ridiculous and untrue.

You would be incorrect. I didn't quote the person whom I read it from because he said it wasn't his quote. He had heard it from someone else.
If it makes you feel better, please add "Unknown" below it.

Well, since it wasn't your quote, I withdraw my assumption. Anyway, you'll have to add the "Unknown". I can't edit your post as I'm not a moderator.

I'll admit, sometimes I can't tell if someone on the net's joking or not, but that's what emoticons are for.

One should as a rule respect public opinion in so far as is necessary to avoid starvation and to keep out of prison, but anything that goes beyond this is voluntary submission to an unnecessary tyranny, and is likely to interfere with happiness in all kinds of ways.

"Few people in this world will ever have more influence on our lives than Andy Griffith. An actor who never looked like he was acting, a moral compass who saved as many souls as most preachers, and an entertainer who put smiles on more faces than almost anyone; this was as successful a life as is pretty much possible."

Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. "Mankind." That word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps it's fate that today is the Fourth of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom... Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution... but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live. To exist. And should we win the day, the Fourth of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day the world declared in one voice: "We will not go quietly into the night!" We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on! We're going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!

I'm a noted Hatin' Hats and Fluff Country Music person. However, I do realize there is some talent scattered amongst the crap.

I don't really have much of an opinion of Brad except that my friends had me watch the Waitin' on a Woman video with Andy Griffith and I thought it was so sweet. Made me teary. Brad had due respect for a great man, and you can see it in his face. Good on you, Brad.

I don't like country music as a rule. But, now, Mr. Brad Paisley is one guitar picking mofo, when he wants to be. Having said that, I don't like the majority of his music.

I've commented before on this song in the lyrics with meaning thread. And these most lyrics most definitely have meaning for me. Thank you Mr Paisley.

Just read "20 Great Hunter S. Thompson Quotes", by Brian Fairbanks, over at Trutv.com.

Here are some of the better ones:

Quote:
"There was one exact moment, in fact, when I knew for sure that Al Gore would never be President of the United States, no matter what the experts were saying -- and that was when the whole Bush family suddenly appeared on TV and openly scoffed at the idea of Gore winning Florida. The old man was the real tip-off. The leer on his face was almost frightening. It was like looking into the eyes of a tall hyena with a living sheep in its mouth. The sheep's fate was sealed, and so was Al Gore's."
Quote:
"The towers are gone now, reduced to bloody rubble, along with all hopes for Peace in Our Time, in the United States or any other country. Make no mistake about it: We are At War now with somebody and we will stay At War with that mysterious Enemy for the rest of our lives."
Quote:
"Bill Clinton does not inhale marijuana, right? You bet. Like I chew on LSD but I don't swallow it."
Quote:
"I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me."
All ~Hunter S. Thompson

In 1780 British Army Major Patrick Ferguson (a Scot, btw) in command of American Loyalists, decided, unwisely, to await reinforcements atop King's Mountain. He felt safe because he held the high ground. Of his decision and position, he declared:

Quote:
“God Almighty can’t get me off this mountain.”
He was right. He's still there today.

American Patriots had traveled through the night, in a downpour, and arrived at Ferguson's position about noon. The Battle of King's Mountain began at about 4 pm and lasted 65 minutes.

From Wikipedia:

Quote:
His corpse was found with eight musket holes in his body. The Patriots then stripped it of its clothes and urinated on it. He was buried near the site of his fall. It was claimed – according to Patriot accounts – that his corpse was ill-used before burial in an oxhide.

Favorite Machete quotes:
  • Padre Benito del Toro (to Machete): I absolve you of all your sins. Now, get the fuck out!
  • Machete: Machete don't text.
  • Sartana: We didn't cross the border; the border crossed us!
  • Sartana: Well, there's the law and there's what's right. I'm gonna do what's right.
  • Padre Benito del Toro (to a henchman he's about to kill): God has mercy. I don't!
  • Sartana: Yes, I am a woman of the law. And there are lots of laws. But if they don't offer us justice, then they aren't laws! They are just lines drawn in the sand by men who would stand on your back for power and glory.
