No AMENDE HONORABLE in sight
wrote in message oups.com... We await his explanation about how he uttered no We still await liarry parr's apology and recanting of his false statements regarding Louis Blair, Larry Tapper, and the Innes pledge. But in a way I'm delighted that parr has not ... because by failing to make good, he (and jr) continually demonstate to us what a dishornorable bunch the two liarries are. His (their) refusal to admit their wrongdoings bring down their character a whole lot better than any of his detractors can ever hope to accomplish. falsehoods or attempted to mislead when he praised himself -- for Pete's sake! -- under the names of Paulie Graf and Xylothist. Does liarry parr have any comment about liarry evans, in the guise as jr, praising himself? Is this continual ranting about Kingston another of parr's distractions from what is truly important to this newsgroup? |

Hey Robtroll: Thank you g4 for giving a fine demonstration of what a chess facist does by your example. You are a sterling credit to the human race. Do you really want the chess fascists, represented by the two liarries, parr and evans, to leave this forum? Those are the persons who brook no dissent from their point of view. Why, to someone like liarry parr, a disagreement within his clique is chewing meat 30 times rather than 32. As for us "ratpackers", you must have noticed how parr highlights our "debating" an issue amongst ourselves or failing to tow the line on the Innes pledge. That's good. We "ratpackers" are not of one mind ... not all cut from the same cloth. We can have varying opinions without resorting to name calling. And as for you calling on people who seem to disagree with you to leave thgis newsgroup, YOU Robtroll have become the very thing you so despise. It is you who have demonstrated intolerance by your post. Makes one wonder if you and Mr. Brennen aren't dopplegangers. I dare say they know who they are and should they go unnamed? One is the initiator of the "Pledge" against Mr. Inness. Oh look at this - Robtroll pretends to support Innes, yet cannot even spell his name correctly! A whole 5 letters ... wow, that must be tough! Typos happen. This isn't an important enough forum to bother with corrections. |

You only 'wonder' ?! ![]() Its irrisistable to propagandise the Pledge, but as Sri-Parr has written, 'when/how will they sneak back?' I dare say they know who they are and should they go unnamed? One is the initiator of the "Pledge" against Mr. Inness. Oh look at this - Robtroll pretends to support Innes, yet cannot even spell his name correctly! A whole 5 letters ... wow, that must be tough! Typos happen. This isn't an important enough forum to bother with corrections. Alec Guinness was always complaining that no one could spell his name. Cordially, Philip Hamish |

Rob, one of the distinguishing characteristics of fascism is that under it, the publication of factual truth is suppressed in favor of propaganda. Lies, half-truths, fabrications and slanders that serve the interest of the ruling party are advanced at the expense of the public's right to factual information. Another typical fascist ploy is that normal definitions are stood on their heads, e.g. "War is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength" (Orwell). The way you use such terms as "free," "persicution" [sic] and "iron fist" above indicates you may unwittingly be falling into that manner of speech, something I'm sure you will want to avoid. I dare say they know who they are and should they go unnamed? One is the initiator of the "Pledge" against Mr. Inness. Seriously, Rob, ask yourself: who here acts more like a fascist-style propaganda ministry: Innes, Parr, Sloan et al, or those who try here to counter their habitual falsehoods? My feeling about this is that generally speaking, chessplayers make terrible fascists, because they tend to be individualistic and anti-authoritarian. This goes for Parr and Sloan, certainly, as well as our alleged cabal of 'ratpackers'. Anyway, it's hard to see what the point is of Rob's latest instantiation of Godwin's Law: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin's_law It's not as if anyone is advocating actually banning Phil Innes from the group, let alone exterminating the guy. And if unpleasant, repetitive badgering of a poster who gets one's goat looks like fascism to Rob, we'd certainly have to put Larry Parr's 200+ posts about "NMNot Kingston" in that category. LT |

LT Larry, If I were to name names and make a list I could be considered guilty of just that. I just want people to look at the words they write and look into their hearts before they hit "send". Everyone should have a right to freely and honestly express themselves without being subjected to continued personal attacks and reprisals. Cannot everyone just have a gentlemans agreement not to engage in those actions that would limit rather than promote a free and open exchange of ideas? Rob |
