brutus and brutus61 are 2 different people...
he left b-cause to many spies and other type of communistic values that are present here on the boards/ if you or i say any thing that a so called moderator deems unfit or that they disagree with they will and have erased your response.... GOOO UUUNNNIIOOONNN:smilie_132:
Why are you picking on brutus?
decided he didn't want to be part of the wonderful world of Truckingboards any longer
c'mon...you play by the rules on this forum, and he didn't...when you attack someone personally the way he did, and you get called on the carpet for it, live with it...he didn't receive any discipline, at least that he has said, he was simply told to leave names out of it...I don't see the foul here...your point is well taken, and had he been disciplined, which he cannot be, legally or by company policy, then he would have had something to say...this was a simple case of "be decent", something he has a very hard time with, no matter who he is dealing with...If you knew the guy, you would see it differently...
they come in all ages, shapes and sizes now...somehow, when a girl salutes you, I just can't help but find the humor in it...it just never looks right, no matter how old they get to be...and I know that that last statement is going to open a can of worms, and I get everything I deserve, but I couldn't help it...
Technically this is not a free place. It is owned by someone that has ground rules and you are allowed to post/say whatever you want within a reasonable limit. But it is a public board because anyone can sign on and read it.
You are allowed to say something about someone/business as long as it is the truth and/or your opinion and is stated as such (opinion).
That being said everyone can have the right to any opinion and voice it. But that freedom does NOT come without CONSEQUENCES. If you talk about someone or something, expect a response and usually not one that you will like or agree with.
Our freedoms we have today come from the actions of our Forefathers and the Men that served in the many wars. A Soldier signs on the dotted line that he is giving all, upto and including his life for our Country and Freedom. War has been a consequence of our wanting a nation with certain freedoms and the blood of many have been shed for that.
So don't take your freedom of speech lightly and tread carefully. You have the freedom (to tell the truth/have an opinion) but watch for the consequences.
Someone needs to do some research. You just quote the fabricated history of western culture. Believe me, things are not what they appear and certianly not what we've been told and are being told.

I know that 'free speech' is only if we get permits, isn't against some politician/rich person, etc. That's why I said the part about consequences. We should have free assembly but must have a permit to do so. But we do have more rights than a lot of other countries, specifically communist countries. And for what rights we do have we've had our troops there to protect us. Some of our 'conflicts' were more for helping other countries rather than us being directly attacked. I think the reasoning behind that was to keep more countries from being communist so the balance of the world would be more in our (and other democratic, term used loosely) favor.
But for the most part I was talking about this board as not being a public place but privately owned and opened to the public as long as we follow rules. And that our Bill of Rights gives us freedom of speech but when we do speak out, expect some kind of consequences, whether good or bad to come back.
Last the part about our soldiers that have fought, they did so to give us our rights, all the way back to our War of Independence. And we should respect them for signing up to give their lives if need be to keep us free from other countries that want to destroy us. Even those that were drafted could have left the country in a lot of circumstances but didn't. My three uncles were drafted.
Well, I've written a story again! I get too 'wordy' sometimes but I hope this explains more of what I was trying to say.
holy thread resurrection Batman!
You can rat and spy on me all you want, just try to figure out WHO I am. :smilie_132:
