Tim Kennedy's right wing views?

[adamsilva]

Kennedy is a brain washed marine who thinks killing in the name of government and country is honorable.

What a joke.

Yes, but I forgive you. I'm a sucker for cheap affection

You never really explained why I was an idiot, though.

All you said was "so much fail".

I want your love...I really do...but I need answers.

Completely agree.

And anyone who thinks he is a hero for fighting in Iraq.....yea....defending his country, protecting our freedom, etc, right?

Kennedy isn't a Marine. And the major point, which the other poster made, is that what you just tried to villify Kennedy for is what people are praising Mandela for in the first place..

I want your love...I really do..

You have it

Anyone who gives a shit at all about an athletes or any celebrities political or religious views is a fucking retard.

I don't praise mandella.

His name sounds like an ice cream flavor.

I wondered how long it would take one of you folks to show up...

Well things got a tad heated in here.

 

[emax]

I don't get it.

So he didn't get upset when Mandela died? Not that big a deal imo.

Some people consider that atrocious. The place Mandela in the same league as Ghandi and MLK and consider him one of the most wonderful, close to Christ figures there was in the 20th century and so in their eyes Tim Kennedy may as well have said he is a Stormfront white nationalist.

That said, those who object to Tim Kennedy are gonna have to get used to this. MMA is continuing to be filled with those who came from amateur wrestling backgrounds, many of whom are from the Midwest, Great Plains or Southwest, and a few with military backgrounds on top of that. The chances that they are all gonna be overly sensitive liberal Democrats are very, very slim to none.

Keeping this stuff on discussions designated for political purposes all the time, 24/7/ is an ideal goal we should be working towards but in practice it is about as realistic as Gina Carano showing up at one of our doors next morning in her underwear bringing us a pizza.

Ryen? How do you pronounce that name?

 

[UJustGotChaeld]

Wow . Lol at that first comment.

Why wow? Mandela was a terorist directly responsible for numerous deaths. He was still on the US terrorism watch list almost up until his death. The organization he was a founder of had a national anthem saying "we pledge ourselves to kill the whites".

People remember Mandela with rose colored glasses built of emotion and ignorance, the truth about Mandela is not so pretty.

is this true? if it is how can anyone argue in favor of Mandela? I have nothing to offer the conversation but want to take a side

Agreed until the last line. They already come at a price. It's called 'higher taxes". And, I don't believe in bailouts, period.

Well... technically, then, you agree with the my last line too. Because higher taxes (along with regulation) was the price I was talking about.

Personally, I'm a libertarian, and like I've stated, in a libertarian world where the free market reigns, I'm all for a flat tax and a virtually nonexistent regulatory system (the threat of actually having to pay for you crimes and screw ups would be a pretty good regulator, if we'd give it the chance).

But in the corporate world we occupy corporatists who want to fake that they're libertarians and then hide behind limited liability protections whenever they screw up royally and it all goes south instead of letting the free market squash them like the cockroaches they are make me wanna retch.

... and so when they complain about taxes and regulation, I just kinda shrug.
