Thanks for noticing my sarcasm, so why don't you tell me in your own words what you have against MADD and their objective.
:hmmm::hmmm::hmmm::hmmm::hmmm: What are you trying to say? Should I distort your words and say that you think MADD stages accidents too! Well my god what an outlandish statment! Haha. Come on. Stop trolling around and answer my previous question that I posed to you about my three other examples.

So, you have no proof whatsoever their statistics are not valid. Tell me, why should anyone take anything YOU say seriously?
Why do I have to refute them. They are a lobbyist group that uses scare tactics to make points and get money from the public. Personally, I dont value information from a source that has a financial stake in proving a point. Again, its not like Im for drunk driving, but I like my info from sources that actually try to be unbiased. MADD doesnt even pretend to be unbiased.

All of them.
Your analogies are so rambling that don't deserve exploration, but I'll tackle this one for you;
Only Braggi and Barry and bodegahead have publicly admitted that they smoke(d) pot and they support your position. So the only logical conclusion is that YOU are a pothead, not that EVERYBODY smokes weed on Wacco.

That is the most ridiculous thing Ive ever heard! Why won't you just answer them? Maybe I am a pothead... What does that matter? Is the logical conclusion that Im a poor minority whos arab too? Because with your logic it would appear that way. Explain....

Why? I didnt just say that police watching people leave bars equals Nazi Germany. I said that police profiling people leaving bars and assuming their drunk driving is like Nazi Germany.
You wrote about our Sebastopol Police 'Its very reminiscent of Nazi Germany....'
Without attacking you personally I will note that almost every time that someone plays the NAZI Germany card in an online discussion it is because they are either trapped in their own rhetoric and unable to express themselves as extremely as they want, or they are simply fucking bat shit crazy (see for instance Holocaust deniers).
I personally find it to be difficult to tell the difference, and in either case it is disgusting behavior which makes me angry.
So yeah, you have done something which I find personally disgusting. It is unacceptable to me for you to accuse, hint, allude, or whisper any fucking equivalence whatsoever between the Sebastopol Police department and NAZI Germany.

SOrry if it makes you angry. But there is a comparison there. Nazi's singled out people not for their actions but rather for who they are or what they associated themselves with. And to just say that If I make any comparison to Nazi Germany Im completly crazy, is crazy in itself.

So you are now explicitly, consciously, and fully intentionally comparing the Sebastopol police department with the NAZI's.
I gave you a little out - maybe your were simply emotionally over wrought. But you declined that out. You are explicitly equating our police with the NAZIs.
Your comparison _is_ completely crazy, deeply offensive, and just plain whack. And it means that there literally is no longer any value to be sucked out of this discussion:

Well Im sorry thats your opinion. Why is it wrong to compare this one instance to Nazi's when it has complete validity. Im not saing that the Seb. police are burning people and creating mass graves etc... So whats your problem? Im saying the mental attitude the police have towards this issue mildly resembles the attitude and thoughts of nazi germany. Its a fact.

Another great quote from the Wiki thread:
"However, Godwin's Law itself can be abused, as a distraction or diversion, that fallaciously miscasts an opponent's argument (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man_fallacy) as hyperbole (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbole), especially if the comparisons made by the argument are actually appropriate. A 2005 Reason (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reason_(magazine)) magazine article argued that Godwin's Law is often misused to ridicule even valid comparisons."

I for one do not feel "someguy "was equating the Sebastopol Police with the Nazis in general...
I do feel that he was, because those were his words.
Someguy is advocating evil and is deeply deeply libeling our local police.
Barry as often happens with him, has selective ideas about what speech should be censored on wacco.
Barry regularly implicitly supports posters equating whatever petty grievance they have with NAZIism. It is now a multi year pattern.
I assert, in various levels of politeness, that equating our police department with NAZIism, or equating animal 'rights' with concentation camps, etc, are acts of total nutcases.
Barry would rather support the nutcases because they are 'members of our community.'
It is strange behavior on Barry's part. I don't understand it.
And it is deeply evil behavior on someguy's part.

You know what guy, Im getting really sick and tired of you calling me evil just because I made a point that you can't refute logically. Why can't we disagree without you resorting to name calling? Oh and by the way you have distorted my point completely and everyone knows it except you. Maybe Barry supports peoples rights to opinions as long as they are not attacking people and saying hurtful things, like, "F off and die". Your rhetoric seems very evil to me, and your coming off very crazy too. So maybe you should step back and take a look at your own words and just think about what your saying here.:yinyang:

You are very welcome.
Another observation I'd like to make is that when an original thread topic digresses as much as this one has (MADD, etc) , sometimes a list moderator will break it off into a new thread. But these digressions don't have merit because they are worthless quibbles from the detractors who support Nazi style tactics in law enforcement. I believe that the best thing to do here is to ignore the pointless and wasteful digression and get back on topic. Digressing ad nauseam is a common way to sabotage and kill a good debate like this one.
This said, I found Godwin's Law fascinating. Today is the first day I ever heard of it. I have made many allusions to the Nazis and Hitler in my debates here on the list. I will be more conscientious about this in the future and if I feel an important need to use the Nazi analogy again then I will do so by giving a clear historical reference as to why the comparison is valid.
Best,
Edward

To answer your first question about other special interest groups fighting for health issues. No, I dont trust them. Think about how many stupid breast cancer societies that exist. Not one of them even speaks about prevention! None of them make any headway what so ever. While primitive societies knew how to prevent cancer and anyone who does any real research can figure it out. Check out Weston Price, and you'll find out what Im talking about.
So Weston Price has found a cure for BREAST CANCER?????
you really have some nerve guy.
Your distortion of facts and spreading of misinformation has just begun I presume.
And as far as MADD goes they advocate zero tolerance. They want breathalizers in your ignition that prevent you from driving if you blow a .02%.
More misinformation!
They want those breath-analyzers in your ignition for CONVICTED DUI'S
They actually are more of a prohibition gang than anything else. Even though the woman who founded it left because the group changed their values so much and instead of dealing with drunk driving issues they expanded to just alcohol in general. They are noted as irresponsible with fundraiser money and some of it seems to always dissapear. I dont know if people are stealing it or not. How do you know that they aren't? (as you stated above
Where do you get these "facts"??
Why don't start providing links for your information, otherwise you are only confusing people with your opinion.

Education, advocacy and victim assistance
Strict policy in a variety of areas, including an illegal blood alcohol content (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_alcohol_content) of .08% or higher and using stronger sanctions for DUI offenders, including mandatory jail sentences, treatment for alcoholism and other alcohol abuse issues, ignition interlock devices,<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-ignition_1-0">[2] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mothers_Against_Drunk_Driving#cite_note-ignition-1)</sup> and license suspensions
Helping victims of drunk driving
Maintaining the legal drinking age at 21 years old
Mandating alcohol breath testing ignition interlock devices for everyone convicted of driving while intoxicated

How to Spot a Troll on Waccobb,
There has been significant discussion of Trolls and Trolling on waccobb over the last few years. Just do a search. I don't want to address the entire subject here.
I just wasted about ten minutes doing a search for this specific topic, "How to Spot... etc.", but to no avail. I swear I've weighed in on it in the past, but can't find my previous post.
Sooo, here's how:
Check their Public Profile.
Is it devoid of identifying information?
If so, you've got a real good suspect.
Do they act like a Troll (https://www.flayme.com/troll/)?
(Click on the link above for a more extensive discussion. There are many other sources of info online as well. Both on this board and elsewhere.)
Bingo! Found one!!!
It's really that simple.
For a much more extensive series of discussions, check the archive.
Can someone act like a troll, but identify themselves and even be sincere in their utterances? You Betcha!
Can a consistent Troll say things that you agree with them about? Heya Ms. Terry! We're on the same page regarding Palestine/Israel, but you're still a TROLL. Check the link provided above if you're confused. And no, I won't be replying to your queries and or provocations. Haven't you noticed by now that I never do?
And please, everyone, don't assume I do not understand the need for privacy online. If someone has not provided personal info, that does not make them a Troll. Everyone has a right to privacy, and some people may have reasons that make it a paramount concern.
But if someone has provided NO PERSONAL INFORMATION, and they follow the rhetorical pattern of trolling provided in the link, well, that's proof enough for me.
I try not to feed them. I am fully aware that this post constitutes a violation of that policy. I often monitor a thread, observe trolling at work, and make no reply.
But after a while, watching newbies getting tortured emotionally, is no longer tolerable, at least for me.
Oh, yeah, one more thing for now. Most of you have read this from me before. Don't miss the joys of the "ignore" list. It really does save time, effort and stress.
Once someone has proven to you that they have nothing useful to write, use it!
If you think I'm one of them, no hard feelings, feel free to ignore me as well!!!!
It's a beautiful day.
Cheers,
"Mad" Miles

Even though your name, Mad Miles, has a built-in preemptive excuse for your behavior, you seem to be on a mission to discredit a person rather their message.
I know it is easier to kill the messenger and rally the troops behind this, but your elitist stance reveals some old hurt, that I am not familiar with.
Let's replace one word with another to reveal this elitism behind this name-calling and/or pigeon-holing.
Can a consistent nigger say things that you agree with them about? Heya Ms. Terry! We're on the same page regarding Palestine/Israel, but you're still a nigger. As you can see from the above example, there is no redemption for MsTerry. MsTerry will be damned whether she is right or wrong, whether you agree or disagree.
Making it appear that you are better than this, by calling other people names, is a disservice to yourself.
