woof woof woof....means, way to go....

spam code:  PAYEE

Jason I wrote a large blog about your post but deleted it.

Please never Ban, Random, Dusty, Pax, Mattloch, Pete, Robb, Buffoo, Anti, Hardliner.

I would be a mute without them.  

I dont have any friends in here and I prefer it that way.

I did like Mocus and Justin.

Jason,

If that's the case, then why are certain bloggers allowed to come back (after a certain amount of time, under a different name) and resume the grief? Why are some allowed to continue, without changing their ways?

You may slap some of them on the wrist, but in a few days, their back to business as usual, and you do nothing to interrupt the flow of it. If one sits back and lurks for awhile, It surely looks as though you allow more to go on from one side, than the other. This isn't a blog from San Francisco. Like it or not,  it's a blog from Bakersfield. You've been chasing off the MANY, to allow a voice for the FEW. Doing this, isn't changing the popular view, it's only making your News Paper and Blog less popular with the General population in your own market.

I've been dealing with young kids for YEARS and I'm a FAIR FANATIC. I definitely understand what fair is, and I'm not seeing it here. You've done an excellent job at rationalizing your actions, but haven't explained, or expressed a desire to change anything. This tells me that you can't even see what you're doing here.

That's not a good sign................................

Congratulations, you're killing your own News Paper.

Ps: I thought Steve S. would be a good golf buddy, but since we went to Lake Elisabeth and golfed he hasnt said a word about our time there and I thought we had a great time.

I did say something about Scary Mary and that might have cancelled our promise game at Kern City.

I'll get over his promise.

Be part of the solution , help build this community.Participate. And if we ban  use account suspension for SteveS,where we will get our corn ball humor? (joke)

My apologies for using the word "banned" instead of "suspended."  And I do appreciate the "certain person" being suspended.  I'm guessing here but it appears he has returned under a new name.  Either it's "him" or a copycat.

This reminds me of my Lab.  She knows not to go to the bathroom in the house but sometimes can't help but "widdle" in the floor.  I run her out and don't let her back in for a while.  I relent and let her in and she "widdle dribbles" all through the house.  Out she goes again.   And so on.

Where's the story of the alligator and the scorpian at the river?

Don't worry Jason, these blogs will be mild mannered. Even though most here see only the others fault it is not a fatal flaw, just a Bakersfield culture quirk. However, it is fun, but apparently fun is not the object of the game here when some family bloggers exercise the Powell doctrine of overwhelming force to pounce on an individual.

As for missing some comments, don’t fret go on vacation, this blog has snitches a plenty and you will soon know who is not being nice or nice enough for them as that is how we mark our turf.

Thanks Blog and Hardliner it was all in fun, MY WAY of Having a Little Fun.

Thanks for the RED, Blog

Ron.

As an "observer" for some time, I have been unable to NOT (I tried for sanity's sake) notice the control of these blogs by the denizens of the Liberal Socialist mindset., one which proliferates in our public school system of today.

It appears when a new upstart rears his "even slightly to the right of center" head, it will be "Whacka-Moled" instantly by said socialistic psuedo-intellectuals. A sad commentary, not only on the board monitors (whose concession to creative explanation comes in the metaphorical form of "the rantings of a 2 year old")  {lame-on Garth} and their employer as an institutional "culture", but our soceity as a whole.

Sorry to disappoint you, Raynor, but I was a Catholic School kid.  Got better...

.

A Brilliant man once noted an unfair tactic for taking over an organization:  "to attend all the meetings."   That's all the liberal (and moderate) thinkers here have done.   Can we help it if "the facts have a liberal bias"?

.

If you can't support what you write, shouldn't your mole be whacked in the interest of accuracy? 

I posted this blog a month ago http://people.bakersfield.c...

Somebody left this http://people.bakersfield.c... as an example why they don't blog here.....

The above two comments are proving the point loud and clear.

Cast a glance in your mirror Random. You have described the "Pogoesque" enemy and it is~~~~~ Guess Who?  ;)

Did somebody eles say something? Thought I heard "something".

In nomine patri, et spiritu~~~~~

And you just contributed to the poor manners here, Raynor, by lobbing your own hate-filled grenade.

Try being a part of the solution, rather than inciting more of the problem.

What gets a person thumped on -- at least by me -- is their attitude, not their opinion.

Spamcode: FDRTV  hahahahahaha

P.S.  Go ahead.  Tell me what my opinions are on everything.  I wait with bated breath.

Quite so, sf.  It *WORKS,* unless the other side cheats and shows up too.

.

...Santi, Amen, Raynor.   

Intro ibo ad altare dei. 

Ad deum qui laetificat juventutum meum.

Never try to out-Latin an old Altar Boy.  I learned the Tridentine before I learned the Vatican II mass.

.

But to reply at your level:  I'm rubber and you're glue.

Hate filled, hardliner? Hmmmmm```````````

Rather than charachterize what I posted as a "hate filled grenade" I would liken it more to a "Bates Motel" Roach Trap.

Seems to have done its job

Oh, my.  His evil plan worked.  He posted something at a discussion forum and people actually *REPLIED TO IT.* 

For his next feat, he'll dial a phone number at random, and actually induce someone to answer.  Such awesome power.  He may even ask if the victim's refrigerator is running.

Over the last couple of years I have seen some promising people drop out of the Californian blog site because of mean-spirited persons attacking and insulting them. Despite the “sweetness and light” approach Jason and some others have proposed, this has not prevented some really vile persons from driving away some good people who decided they did not need the grief and stopped posting. Civility should be the overriding, guiding rule throughout, but Jason will recall the early battle I had with some cyber bullies threatening to “wear me down,” that they would keep reposting their insulting remarks faster than I could delete them. This resulted in some changes, and I wrote an article at the time about bullies on the Internet and elsewhere, specifically because of the bullies some were encountering.

Then along comes the despicable RKH, and this vile person was allowed to continue his rampage for far too long despite repeated reports of violations. Worse, this person’s vile comments were supposed to be left on a post after being reported until they could be dealt with. Why isn’t the report of a violation sufficient since the offense and offender are contained in that very report? Why should any poster be forced to leave the offending remarks on their post without deleting immediately after reporting the violation? Jason never did answer my question about this. But none of us should have to be forced to allow the violation to remain in the comments to our posts.

Some of the worst offenders like RKH will actually stalk persons from post to post just to attack and insult those individuals. This has prevented some people from commenting on the posts of other bloggers, knowing that if they dare comment the stalker will immediately attack them. Because of this, as I have informed some bloggers I will not comment where such insults are allowed to remain or are not reported as a violation. One blogger on the Californian site that I know well did not heed this advice, and now it’s his “tar baby,” and each of his posts is dominated by the attackers and insulters, self-professed “liberals.” The result being he has lost many that would like to contribute their thoughts on his posts but will be attacked immediately for any perceived conservative views.

My own advice to those in the Californian blogging “community” is to not engage those whose only motive in commenting on a post is to attack and insult you. A tit-for-tat trading of insults is a lose/lose situation. This was the real mistake made by Justincase. I hope he will be coming back, but over time, most of us have learned who the people are that only comment in order to attack and insult you. A few deletes and they eventually go away and leave you alone on your own posts. Unhappily, some of these will use your comments on other posts to stalk and attack. But for the newcomers who have not learned their way around the Californian site, that have not learned about who to delete, many of these will continue to be lost as a result of not knowing how to deal with the few whose only purpose in commenting is to attack and insult, whether by the vile remarks of a RKH or those who insult through pretentiousness, patronization, and condescension.

Wish I wrote that well, you said what I was thinking.

Thanks,

"Ad Deum  qui  laetificat  juventutem  meam.

To God   Who  gives joy to my youth ." (roughly)

Brings back memories of being at the foot of the altar. I was also an altar boy Randomfactor.

BTW, I will, over the course of time, provide factual proof (real world examples at any rate) of the things I post. Can you say the same?

Res Ipsa Loquitor

In nomine, patri~~~~~~~~~~ (spectacles,,,,,,, you know the drill)  ;)

"As for myself, I welcome a challenge.  I enjoyed the back and for with Justin and have enjoyed the occasional back and forth with others here.  I've been corrected on my facts by both liberals and conservatives and consider it a learning experience.  Of course, no one has ever beat up on me too much because I tend to ignore the jokers on both sides (like Mocus and Panfilo) and when I'm corrected on facts, I don't take it personally"

As "Anti-WhackaMole" a posting as I have ever come across

Kudos~~~~~~~~~

Of course I can.  But "real world examples" all too often mean "anecdotal evidence" and not proof.

By the way, it's "loquitur."  Voremus, ite, missa est.

And finally on our Pangaea Newscast:  environmental activists today protested the opening of the new iridium-fueled reactor, saying that if it were to blow up, only mammals and cockroaches would survive...

Not sure I want to see what would evolve from Keith Richards and Cher...

OK eagle eye Sam. <big smile> I can sense a connisseur a couple a gulches off~~~~~~~~~~~ <grin agin'>

It is the Baretta Stampede with birdshead grip.

I wasn't aware of the double action version and the history but just think it is a beautiful little piece.

They used to have one at 2nd Amendment (can you say that on here?) LOL!

"Not sure I want to see what would evolve from Keith Richards and Cher..."

Dennis Kucinich? Tommy Thompson? 

Come on now, that's funny! <in best Larry Cable guy persona>

Sam’s last piece was inspiring and well aimed at those who would abuse the blog and he reassured all of us that he never abuses the blog, and his comments are more sacred than scripture, and I agree.

Before having the fortuitous pleasure of reading Sam’s extensive bogs, I was not aware of the dangerous and threatening the ACLU, Mexicans, and other undesirable are to the survival of our country as we know it.

Yes, these revolving despicable blogger such as RKH whose vile venom has no boundaries and he dare to violate our rights, and despite many warning that our conservative rights were being violated nothing was done, however, this is how liberals work, they want to not only remove us, but make light of the important issues we conservative present, not to insult, but to educate.

Sam also gives very good advice to the new bloggers who need to know that their comment will be heard or not heard depending not a liberal or conservative point of view but on the successful mastery of the delete button.

It is our responsibility to report those who violate the blog and it is our responsibility to keep reporting these violators until they are either banned or change their views to a more acceptable conservative outlook.
