hiddenmuse | Rant about politics and other crap

I'm a pretty open-minded, moderate person. I like to think that I can respect a person's First Amendment Rights ... but at the same time, I try to not take umbrage to a lot of what I see and/or read around here.

However, when you're going to be putting up an image that offers up graphic violence on LiveJournal, for the love of Gordon Gano, remember that the LJ-Cut is your best friend!

Unfortunately, someone forgot this, and felt the wrath of

ljdemocrats version of Ktulu for doing so ...
Ktulu's gonna get Medieval on your ass, motherf**ker!

If you've got an iron stomach, here is the original image that earned him the rightful upbraiding: Abu Ghiraib ... not so good times

What cracked me up, is that rather than attempting to be remotely respectful of people, or even accepting anyone's suggestions, he just felt this perverse need to try and rip us all new orifices.

I did my best to be nice - even managed to not drop any F-bombs, or tell him where to go ... although it was very tempting! It just rankles me that people will come around from time to time, and feel this need to make a point by being Über-Assholes, as this guy was. And let me tell you, his comment that I should "go back to (my) bake sales and chamomile tea party..." - I wanted to just smack him for that. He's one of those people that really rankles me. Just because I'm democratic doesn't mean that I'm spineless and dealing in fluff pablum drivel as he assumed. That SOB can kiss my ass. I don't need his posting a photograph that was nothing more than a war version of political bukkake to remind me that war is ugly. I grew up with my father being emotionally absent because he was trying to escape the Vietnam War through drug addiction ... the fact that he was against the war, but he was still there, ad infinitum.

Yeah, make your point ... but if you're going to post anything explicitly violent or sexual, put it behind a cut, dammit! Those of us that read at work would really, really appreciate it. :)
