this board is great: is it free expression for both anti-war and pro-war... and i've always said that if you can have both side of the story in the same media, then that is real free press!!!
You are right about that.

Damn right!
Which doesn't mean the board will be shut down...
I will try to make sure is stays open for war-related discussions. I've already instructed the moderators to lower the level of moderation for such posts...

As I said, I think war-related is the way to promote communication and free press, and that seems the best solution, up to now, to try to stop this war!

That's good to hear, Peter. One of my other boards (a non-Jovi one) is trying to keep the war threads to a minimum, which is very hard to do considering it is so much bigger than any "fandom" board topic could ever be.

Wow, an IQ of 140 apparently doesn't bring enough emotional intelligence to refrain someone from boasting with stuff like this on a message board.

Only a simple mind would understand pi as "smart". The beauty of pi is the following: being just a number (ok, with infinite decimals) - simple - but still being much more than that - it has depth.
You just F U C K OFF. Your nothing but a gimp. All you do is moan shut down the board get a grip moron. And as for the war go hide under a log until its finnished you pussy. Its ok to allow saddam to kill millions of his own people and be a worldwide threat yes of course as it doesnt scare kid a.

You just displayed the average intelligence level of a typical war-supporter. Definitely not a 3-digit figure.

Joviscout, I remember running into you during a discussion of whether or not krb should be allowed back. I can see, just from this post, you're a fan of his. Same way with people.

All us anti-war people will go hide under logs when all the pro-war people go and do some killing for themselves. Its just dandy to sit back in your computer chair and say we should bomb the crap out of Iraq just 'cause we hate their leader, but could you order the bombing, knowing you'd cost hundreds of innocent lives? Better yet, why don't those pro-war people go shoot up an Iraqi village, if they have the guts. Stare down a gun at some innocent Iraqi and pull the trigger for your "great" country.
I'm going to stay at home and hope our president grows a brain stem and orders the killing to stop.
Adrian

So what is your solution Adrian?? What should have been done to free these people? People who are dancing around the streets right now, ripping Saddam's picture down. I am serious. How would you deal with Saddam???
