OK Frank, You Win
Frank O'Dwyer has been bitching semantics at me (in the absence of any argument to refute what was actually being said) whilst calling me a liar and comparing me to the 9/11 attackers in the comments of a previous thread on the subject of what I chose to call moral relativism. So as I'm getting a little ticked off with being compared to terrorists for the (in Frank's eyes) heinous crime of stating that I know the difference between right and wrong, I'll give Frank this one if it'll shut the pillock up.
Besides, Hugh Fitzgerald nailed it much better in the article linked to above didnt he? Moral symmetry. Way better term.
There you go Frank, you've tried playing with a Blogosphere minnow like me, now you can go play with the sharks. Have fun.

Christ, you're an idiot.
And now you are lying, by the way.
But keep telling yourself you KNOW what is right and wrong, anyway, like a good little fundie.
DB, you couldn't come up with a rational argument if you were given a £10m budget and three wishes.
Liar, liar, pants on fire!

Like I said, you show little regard for the truth. You whine that I am "bitching semantics" when I point out that YOU got things so fucked up that YOU accuse the wrong people. By that standard, the Guildford Four were only "bitching semantics".
And you are indeed lying when you claim that in my eyes it is a heinous crime to "state" something.
So much for your "morality" and "coherent argument".
I see, so an absolute sense of right and wrong makes me like the 9/11 hijackers, but your NOT stating that moral certainty is a crime. Riiiiight....
Oh and the Guildford Four? There's a REASON why our PC PCs made it clear they werent 'looking for anyone else in connection with the crime'. The fact that all your IRA pals are now getting off completely scot-free for the acts they committed is simple proof that the Birmingham Six, the Guildford Four et al were just the harbingers of things to come.

Do you know what the word 'crime' means?
all your IRA pals
I do not support terrorism and do not have any "IRA pals". Nor do I support the pardoning of murderers. You have totally crossed the line of reasonable debate and allowable misunderstanding with this shit, to the extent that I could probably take a libel action against you for it if you were not posting from the cover of anonymity.
Try not to be SUCH a sleazy asshole if you can possibly manage it.
Frank,
I've read your comments on ATW. Dont tell me you arent a Republican. And I've read how even though you 'dont support terrorism' you do however oppose ever single rational measure that is taken to oppose it.
But now I'm bored with your BS, because if your arguments boil down to making threats of libel action then you really have gone all the way out there to Lalaland. This is my patch, my little minnow of a Blog. Notice how I havent come onto your Blog and pissed in your pool despite this little spat, so do me the same courtesy from now on please. Ta.
if your arguments boil down to making threats of libel action
No "argument" from me is necessary when you attempt to link me with IRA terrorism. That's when I sit back and wait for you to prove your claims, or apologise and retract them.
You can't do the former because your claims aren't true - I don't have "IRA pals", I'm not a Republican, and nor for that matter do I oppose "all rational measures" against terrorism.
Wasn't it you who said it would be nice to have a neutral observer judge your arguments?
Be careful what you wish for.
OK Frank,
Thats fine. I'm even willing to apologise for the IRA reference, that was unfair hyperbole. Now, if you want to continue trying to intimidate, go ahead. But do it from somewhere else because I'm now going to turn on Comment Moderation and not let any further stuff like this go through because frankly you have gone way over the top and as I said, I havent pissed in your pool and I'm now barring you from continuing to piss in mine.
