A Warning
I don't need this fucking stress in my life right now.
I've never seen so many calls for violence from c99 members in the eleven years that I've admined this site, that includes death wishes for national and world leaders. Calls for violence have always been forbidden on this site, from the beginning.
And I'm fucking sick of it.
If I see any more of it the member who does it is out of here and I don't care who you are. You're putting yourself and this site in jeopardy with your fucking bravado. If you're going to be a dumb ass about it then take that shit elsewhere. Discussing fucked up pols and their fucked up policies are OK, calls for violence against anyone are not OK.
If there's one thing that there's too much of in this world, it is hatred. Especially hatred that's meant to divide us.
I always thought we were better than that.
You've been warned.

Hi Johnny
‘fafo’, that’s a new one for me ; ).
I’m sorry about any stress that is caused for you. We all need a reminder sometimes to keep it cool and kind.
Sorry for the stress my friend...
The degradation of the empire makes people extreme I'm afraid. They are understandably angry and are lashing out without thought of ramifications to the site and to you as the owner.
I hope the c99 community will be more thoughtful in the future, since you've brought it to everyone's attention.
Wishing you the best and sending healing thoughts your way!

Awww, Man!
You mean we can't be the kool kids making death threats and inciting violence from the safety of our homes while eating ice cream without getting banned?

Not just for the sake of the board
Anger is very hard to avoid in this era of Scam and Hack and Trump. In any given person anger can be a motivator for necessary action. But most often it makes you foolish.
Getting mad at what is happening in the world and in our own country is impossible to avoid altogether, but we should all cool our shit as much as we can. And set it aside whenever posting on C-99.
I cried when I wrote this song. Sue me if I play too long.
I always have...
the best interests for the site in mind.
These are troubling times, if we're not careful c99 may not survive.
I think a lot of people are frustrated
that the Karma Houdinis keep escaping all the bad karma they have piled up - and worse, they keep piling more on.
It's enough to make an atheist want to believe in Dante's Hell. (Wiki has a nice article on this but I can't get it to link properly - Web search "Dante Inferno".)
There is no justice. There can be no peace.
Hey JtC, sorry for the stress. What a terrible time
and a terribly important time we live in.
I think we have cultural stress. (I just made that up.) Our constant state is fight or flight. A very unhealthy and stressful position to be in.
Recently Joe and I traded opinions on the death penalty. In spite of everything horrific that we are learning people do, I still don't believe in the death penalty.
Alex and Alexander (I think) were trading ideas for long term incarceration of horrible people. The suggestions had to do with living a long time without the benefit of a good juicy steak, or ice cream; warm cuddly blankets on a cold night and so on.
It got pretty funny the things from daily life we have now but would miss terribly if we couldn't have them. They say living well is the best revenge.
Take care you two and somehow we must/need to outlive the mean, and evil people of this world.
Our love to you.
