		<description>Some people are unable to put their beliefs up to scrutiny and engage in an open dialogue.  I link on my blog to conservatives, liberals, libertarians and to one or two who are outright socialist, and I interact with most of them on a somewhat regular basis.
Of course we all blog to get our view out there, but the other half of that is that we invite comments of any nature.
I&#039;ve seen you engage Calvin on several occasions and it led to some good threads on Facebook.  
Seth says above that he would block you too.  Wonder if he sees the irony in that considering that you entertain his privilege to comment on your blog?</description>

		<description>Byron Gates invited me to be his friend on Facebook. Then when I put some facts on his page that proved him to be the regime supporting socialist he is, guess what, he decided that he did not want to be my friend anymore. It was pretty funny because he did it in the typical liberal fashion of cussing and calling me names. Just look at the comments of his intellectually vacuous crew of worshipers.
It&#039;s not possible to have a battle of wits with Byron Gates, or any other liberal because they just don&#039;t have any ammunition.</description>

		<description>Let&#039;s start at the top with the billboard: Byron probably considers the billboard phrase &quot;Live Free or Die&quot; to be &quot;outrageous&quot; given the context of it being UNDER PHOTOS COMPARING HIM TO HITLER. Context matters. This has nothing to do with New Hampshire&#039;s motto. At all. I don&#039;t believe the &quot;they started it with Bush&quot; argument is valid anywhere except for the school yard playground - a place that draws many parallels with the world of political editorials. 

Now let us talk about the Facebook thread. The only halfway decent thing you said in your comment was: 

&quot;Here&#039;s a news flash to help y&#039;all out: both sides of the aisle pull this. The same was said during Bush, Clinton, Bush, Reagan, Carter (he deserved it), etc. etc.&quot;

...but you don&#039;t really give that any weight. During those administrations, did similar sensational ads not seem ridiculous and over the top? Then why defend the people who did it this time? Why not encourage more moderate commentary instead of justifying the comparison between Obama and Hitler because &quot;well they did it tooooooo.&quot;

Next you say:

&quot;Feel free to debate me any time and any place. We can even compare IQ&#039;s, test scores, financial status, and even common sense. I will be glad to oblige.&quot;

when you say in your blog:

&quot;He tries, like most liberals, to put himself on a pedestal above others.&quot;

What kind of statement is that? You&#039;re a damn bully. A bully trying to pick a fight via a medium that your victim controls. Of course he blocked you. I&#039;d block you. Nobody wants those kind of aggressive comments on their Facebook status update. Most people aren&#039;t interested in arguing with a man with his own conservative blog that&#039;s trolling Facebook. That doesn&#039;t necessarily make them wrong.

&quot;He simply feels good preaching to the choir of his friends where they can pat each other on the back and feel good.&quot;

The same description could easily apply to the entirety of this blog. Of course Byron feels good preaching to the choir of his friends. That&#039;s what Facebook is. You do the same whether it be this blog, YOUR Facebook profile, or while in your back yard grilling with a few friends over. You certainly didn&#039;t choose to post a similar Facebook thread we shared months back where you didn&#039;t as clearly come out on top.

&quot;Good night all. Have fun stoking your own flames. :)&quot;

Looks to me that the flames were only stoked via one comment in that thread. The one challenging the other people to IQ tests. What the hell?</description>

		<description>Hmm - you know it would be interesting to get Angela&#039;s take on the situation after a couple of years. How has it affected her? Did it change her view on life? On the police?</description>

		<description>Wiley Willis should not receive anything but jail time.  The man was only an officer for 4 years and had several complaints while on the job.  He hit a man in the head with his gun and threatened a 12 year old boy on a scooter.  Definitely not the kind of my I want serving my community.  He needs some anger management classes before he can be an active member of society.  I don&#039;t even feel safe knowing that he is allowed to be on the streets in Shreveport/Bossier City.  There is no doubt in my mind that he beat Angie on that night.  Even if she did attempt to leave the room again for a phone call, she was already in handcuffs, so he should have easily been able to restrain her.  He should have never turned off the cameras and he should have asked for another officers assistance.  Those two things would have prevented this whole situation and told the true story of what happened that night.  I am just glad that Angie has remained positive and was able to move past this.  She is a wonderful contributor to her local community, a great wife, a great mother, and I wish her and her family all the best.</description>

		<description>&quot;Officer&quot; Wiley Willis is nothing more than a pathetic example of a woman beater. We all know that Angela was beaten by Willis; but, no one in our society cares about that. We just keep making excuses for his assault  about how she tried to leave the room. I don&#039;t care if she jumped up and started singing Yankee Doodle Dandee, no one has the right to hit, beat, squeeze, or cause pain to someone who is in handcuffs. It&#039;s really tough to beat up a woman, Wiley. Especially, a defenseless woman in handcuffs. You should be proud.</description>

		<description>[...] This pic (credit to As Seen In Shreveport and thanks to Jim Wells for reminding me) is a perfect demonstration that governments (state or federal) pretty much can&#8217;t control anything. Why in the hell would my tax dollars pay for lobster for someone on Food Stamps? If you think you need to eat lobster &#8211; go get a job. [...]</description>
