Just wow.....I can only shake my head.

How a message of acceptance from rural Oklahoma touched people around the world

I actually love this. Not sure I want to be putting duct tape on my truck, though. Maybe the window . . . I have something to think about today.

Yeah but the paintjob don't look all that great anyway.  Haha

I thought he was rather brave, considering where he is from.

I love the saying he put on there.

According to his FB page, it's duct tape. I have a conditioned aversion to putting sticky stuff on a vehicle's paint.

I thought he was rather brave, considering where he is from.

That's funny. Don't sneak into my food plot, catch and release only at my pond, BYOB (or at least offer to BYOB), treat me with respect despite our differing views. Contrary to what the West and East coast media paints for everyone, you, and many others, might be surprised to find that, by and large, most country boys in Oklahoma don't give a damn about what someone else is doing. Whatever floats your boat. Work hard and play hard? You'll probably get along fine here. 

Brave? Maybe somewhere else, not in Oklahoma. Brave, or possibly cavalier, would be hanging a Hook'em Horns banner across the tailgate during OU/Texas week. Do that, and I'll admit that we do have some crazies that will put a brick through your window. Pride flag? Meh.

Yeah but the paintjob don't look all that great anyway.

There's a Jeff Foxworthy joke here somewhere. Something along the lines of the price tag of the lift kit, rims and tires vs. the vehicle's value. And

I live on a coast but not the east or west.

The man admitted the people around him are not very tolerant.

There's a Jeff Foxworthy joke here somewhere

Haha. True that.

The man admitted the people around him are not very tolerant.

I didn't see that in his post. Regardless, intolerance is different than violence. I can honestly see a conversation of his act going like this:

Guy 1: Hey, did you see what Barlow put on the back of his truck?

Guy 2: Yeah, I did. Hey, call him up, and see if it's still too wet to drive down to the bottom.

As an aside. I got twenty that says the bed is coated with Rhino Liner he applied. 

most country boys in Oklahoma don't give a damn about what someone else is doing.

Absolutely.  Unless you're wearing burnt orange, in which case you may have a problem...... 

Absolutely.  Unless you're wearing burnt orange, in which case you may have a problem...... 

When exactly did they begin to shoot other hunters?

As an aside. I got twenty that says the bed is coated with Rhino Liner he applied. 

I didn't notice that until you mentioned it. You're correct. 

I know where someone put that material on a steel roof to extend its lifespan. 

When exactly did they begin to shoot other hunters?

That's not burnt orange.  It's sort of neon orange.

Burnt orange is the color of the University of Texas (Longhorns), who are the #1 rival of Oklahoma University (Sooners).  Oklahoma doesn't have pro football, so OU football is taken VERY seriously.

OSU football is very serious in Ohio among some people, despite the fact that there are two pro teams.

 I ignore all of them.

Watch real football and support Manchester United the greatest football club in the history of the world.

I don't watch any football, basketball, hockey, baseball or basketball. 

I will watch the occasional cycling event , F1 race and often bits of the 24 hours of LeMans.

I knew there was a reason I liked you.

Glory, Glory Man United......

I think its actually a good product. Probably best used at the start of the vehicle life though. As part of a full disclosure, its not uncommon to see a truck entirely covered in the stuff here. And, apparently we have a habit of waiting until the bed and bed rails get beat up before we decide to apply it.

For what it does it seems to work well. It's just ugly.

Soccer hooligans.............

Sure. Don't feed the mouth breathers. I'm not certain how 10 idiots disrupt a gathering of thousands. Apparently, the person warning people not to physically engage them had the right idea. Let the morons be. They are there to get a rise from someone. Don't give them the satisfaction. Seems easy enough. The image of the guy pissing on the flag gets me. What the hell are they there in opposition too? Everything it seems. I'm not in the habit of researching nazi groups, but apparently:

one of America’s biggest neo-Nazi groups.

is around 10 people. Hell, from the accusation, I expected to read about hundreds or maybe thousands of these punks...nope...around 10. 

Candidly, I clicked on this to learn how the events were disrupted. Unfortunately, no details are given on the panic caused by alleged gun shots, other than people were panicking. I had to look elsewhere for more news on that.

The men allegedly sprayed his wife, Melissa Duffy, with mace after she bumped into them. Singh confronted the men, and was hit and maced himself. He then drew his gun on them. metroweekly

I guess that's why there is not much on the issue in the yahoo story. Singh's reaction clearly uncalled for, but apparently in response to an assault on his wife and himself. The yahoo story leaves quite a bit to the imagination, calculated omission I'm sure. There are conflicting reports as well. Several of the stories indicate that a man watching the macing go down saw what he thought was a gun in Singh's bag. Nothing mentioned about him wielding the gun. I don't support or condone his actions. If he threatened someone with a gun, throw the book at him. 

The other disruption, apparently caused by around 10 nazis...again, not much info. Ripping up flags, pissing on flags. Not sure why they need to carry guns and shields, or really why they feel the need to be there in the first place. But, where's the story? Men showed up in opposition? That's not news. Hell, you might find more people outside of wall-mart, protesting big box stores, and harassing would be shoppers. 

Is that your Sunday alter-ego? 

Mild-mannered insurance man during the week and horn-wearing soccer hooligan on the weekend? 

Perhaps it is better for the rainbow crowd to stay home or do something useful, instead of trying to incite riots.

What the fuck!!!??? Having a parade is inciting riots now? Maybe these nazi fuckers should stay at home and stop desicrating Jewish flags and bashing people based on their orientation, religious beliefs and skin color?

Gays are fighting a battle they have already won.

Who says they are even fighting? Looks like a parade to me. Is that a big trigger for the fascists on the right? Maybe they need a comfort puppy, or a baseball bat to the face. 

I remember when we dealt with Nazis with tanks, machine guns, and bombs.   That was when America was great.

Maybe they need a comfort puppy, or a baseball bat to the face. 

Or maybe something like this fits their mentality;

Rather a homophobic comment there Greg

Very phallic, perfect for those pricks. 

So you are seriously defending the neo-nazis? They are pissing on a Jewish flag, in public...and you are seriously blaming the people at the pride parade? 

Holy..

Fucking..

Shit..

Perhaps it is better for the rainbow crowd to stay home or do something useful, instead of trying to incite riots.

And when 2nd amendment activists are confronted by pacifists calling for universal background checks:

"Perhaps it is better for the NRA crowd to stay home or do something useful, instead of trying to incite riots"

And when pro-Israel groups are confronted by Nazi's:

"Perhaps it is better for the Jewish crowd to stay home or do something useful, instead of trying to incite riots"

And when anti-abortion activists choose to march in solidarity:

"Perhaps it is better for the anti-choice crowd to stay home or do something useful, instead of trying to incite riots"

Perhaps it is better for the rainbow crowd to stay home or do something useful, instead of trying to incite riots. Gays are fighting a battle they have already won.

Your defense of the Nazis actions is noted.

LGBT people are far from having equal civil rights, despite what you have heard on Fox News or from Rush Limbaugh.

Seriously?  It is the NN skinhead aholes that need to stay home.  They live to incite riots.

That is what they are trained to do, and their only intention on showing up anywhere. There is no such thing as 'peaceful' intentions where the neo-Nazis or White Supremacists are concerned. The term 'peace' is a dirty word for them, as they stand and aim for anything but. 

Hatemongering in any form by any group is wrong and disgusting and a blight on all communities.

Exactly Ed, well said. 

A man was taken into custody and is facing a gun possession charge, he said.

The man taken into custody, Aftabjit Singh, displayed a BB gun after someone either hit on or hit his lover who knows maybe it was a case of penis envy?

10 Neo-nazi at protesting a gay parade ? OMG stop the press. Maybe some one should inform them that there were prominent members of the Nazi party that were …..Gay.

I hate revisionist history!

Those Nazis were not openly gay and proud of it.

The pink triangle emblem in the gay community was originally assigned to LGBT people by the Nazis when they were sent to the concentration camps as undesirables.  

The pink triangle was used by the Nazis in concentration camps to identify and shame homosexuals. This symbol, which was used to label and shame, has been embraced by the gay community as a symbol of pride.

However, in the 1930s & 1940s there was nothing celebratory about the pink triangle. Gays were forced to wear the pink triangle on their breast pockets in the concentration camps to identify them as homosexual to set them apart from other prisoners.

Triangles of various colors were used to identify each category of "undesirable": yellow for Jews, brown of Gypsies, red for political prisoners, green for criminals, black for anti-socials, purple for Jehovah's Witnesses, blue for immigrants, and pink for homosexuals.

The pink triangles were slightly larger than the other colored triangles so that guards could identify them from a distance. It is said that those who wore the pink triangles were singled out by the guards to receive the harshest treatment, and when the guards were finished with them, some of the other inmates would harm them as well.

At the end of the war, when the concentration camps were finally liberated, virtually all of the prisoners were released except those who wore the pink triangle. Many of those with a pink triangle on their pocket were put back in prison and their nightmare continued.

One of the groups that was targeted for extermination by the Nazis continues to be under attack to this day, not just verbally but physically, all over the world: homosexuals. The fact that gays were put in German concentration camps is not known by many. The stories of the survivors reveal an unimaginable cruelty and suffering. It is the same kind of senseless, irrational hatred that still haunts Gays, Jews, Blacks, and other minorities today.

thepinktriangle

So sickening, I agree  epistte.  Some pull that shit from . . . . . .

Stephen Miller must have written this morning's Fox News talking points.

Omar, of course, isn't alone here. Even those close to Miller have made the same observation. Miller's own uncle has said his draconian policies would have doomed their Jewish refugee ancestors to death in pogroms. And actual neo-Nazis see him as advancing their goals: Andrew Anglin of the neo-Nazi website Daily Stormer called Miller "the last person in the White House that has any sense," referring specifically to Miller's anti-immigrant agenda. That's been apparent to those who have worked with him, as well. A White House adviser, referring to images of families being split apart at the border, told Vanity Fair that "Stephen actually enjoys seeing those pictures at the border. He’s a twisted guy, the way he was raised and picked on. There’s always been a way he’s gone about this. He’s Waffen-SS."

I hate revisionist history! Those Nazis were not openly gay and proud of it.

No revisionism that would be progressive Liberals that love to practice that.

So what did I say so you can't make up a scenario of what I said.

there were prominent members of the Nazi party that were …..Gay.

And that leads you into a cut and paste about the pink triangle claiming I'm revising history?

Why don't you try cut and pasting who Ernst Rohm is and get back with me.

Why don't you try cut and pasting who Ernst Rohm is and get back with me.

He wasn't executed for being gay. He was executed because he was accused of trying to overthrow Hitler.

In preparation for the purge known as the Night of the Long Knives , both Himmler and Reinhard Heydrich , chief of the SS Security Service, assembled a dossier of manufactured evidence to suggest that Röhm had been paid 12 million Reichsmarks (equivalent to € 48 million 2009) by the government of France to overthrow Hitler.

Are you claiming that the pink triangle didn't originate with the Nazis as a way to identify LGBT people for abuse? 

I guess you don't want to post what you found eh?

Didn't I say prominent members of the Nazi party were gay before you started in with your I was being a revisionist bullshit?

Here you go...

Röhm was Hitler’s right-hand man as head of the Sturmabteilung (SA, the Brownshirts), the Nazi paramilitary wing. Instrumental in the rise of the party via the street-fighting and extra-judicial murders of the late 1920s and early 1930s, Röhm’s sexual orientation was no secret after the mid-1920s. Hitler either ignored it or said it was immaterial, depending on who he was talking to, including other Nazis. Röhm opposed his party’s stand on Paragraph 175 of the German penal code, which made male homosexual acts illegal. This made some German homosexuals think he might ultimately tone down the Nazi stance. That was always wishful thinking, but became especially moot after 1934’s “Night of the Long Knives,” when Röhm and others were massacred as Hitler consolidated his power. (Earlier, the Social Democrats, one of the few parties to campaign for the repeal of Paragraph 175, showed itself willing to gay-bait Röhm.)

Now you can go and try to spin what I said to get a up vote from Tessy 

Are you claiming that the pink triangle didn't originate with the Nazis as a way to identify LGBT people for abuse?

I never said a thing about the pink triangle, You did. Don't try to put words in my mouth, Major Fail.

I had never heard of the guy and had to Wiki his name, so he could not have been a major power in the Nazi party.The Nazi party was not gay friendly.

There are Republicans who are gay but that doesn't mean that the GOP is supportive of the LGBT community.

And what's fucking Hillaryious is your busting my balls for making fun of the Neo-Nazi's.

Who brought up Hillary Clinton? 

What's the matter do you have some sentimental feeling for their ideology?

Your psychological projection is noted.

Considering your monitor's location of being in Michigan and the way that you are attacking for criticizing racist scum, should I also take a hint that you might support the actions of the Nazis who were there? 

I had never heard of the guy and had to Wiki his name,

So

so he could not have been a major power in the Nazi party.

Why because you are uninformed? He was considered Hitlers right hand man.

The Nazi party was not gay friendly.

Who said they were? Here I'll paste what I said for the third time for you, If you can't comprehend what I said I can't help you.

Maybe some one should inform them that there were prominent members of the Nazi party that were …..Gay.

Do you understand? I said that members of the Nazi party were Gay and that the Neo-Nazi should learn their history.

Considering your monitor's location of being in Michigan

WTF are you talking about. What does my computer monitor have to do with anything? LMFAO talk about grasping at straws.

and the way that you are attacking for criticizing racist scum,

So when I made fun of the Neo-Nazi's for the Gays that had prominent positions in the Nazi party just who the hell am I criticizing. Does that offend you that I'm making fun of Nazi?

should I also take a hint that you might support the actions of the Nazis who were there?

You are the one defending them by trying to portray my post as untrue calling it revisionist. So I must Assume you support the Neo-Nazi party.

Do you understand? I said that members of the Nazi party were Gay and that the Neo-Nazi should learn their history.

You found a grand total of one gay nazi. That is statistically insignificant.  Nazis were not gay-friendly, nor was it a gay ideology. 

Get back to me when Goering, Himmler,  Bormann, Brack, Eichmann, Mengele, Stangle, Ribbentrop, Speer, Raeder and others are photographed at a gay bathhouse in an orgy and the SS uniforms had a pink triangle.

The Nazis were not LGBT friendly, despite your attempts to spin it. Don't you ever suggest that I supported those racist bastards!  I would have tossed every one of them into a tree chipper if it was my choice.

The Nazis were not LGBT friendly,

Who said they were? 

despite your attempts to spin it.

Bullshit. You are the one defending them calling my post revisionist.

Don't you ever suggest that I supported those racist bastards!

Well obviously you do when I ridicule the Neo-Nazi and you chirp in defending them.

Who said they were? 

You previously claimed that there were many gay Nazis and hinted they were gay-friendly.  That idea is blatantly untrue.

Bullshit. You are the one defending them calling my post revisionist.

You were not telling the truth about the origins of the pink triangle and the fact that Nazis aren't gay-friendly.  I was not and never have defended Nazis.  Your intellectual dancing of trying to create confusion isn't amusing.

 

Well obviously you do when I ridicule the Neo-Nazi and you chirp in defending them.

Where did I ever defend Nazis?

I have never defended the Nazis. Stop with the revisionist nonsense. 

Get back to me when Goering, Himmler,  Bormann, Brack, Eichmann, Mengele, Stangle, Ribbentrop, Speer, Raeder and others are photographed at a gay bathhouse in an orgy and the SS uniforms had a pink triangle.

Probably not going to [ happen  ,deleted ]   they are all dead.

I had heard before that Hitler himself was gay. [ deleted ]

Despite some ongoing resistance from historians, there exists a growing amount of evidence to suggest Adolf Hitler was a not only a repressed homosexual, but a behind-closed-doors fetish fiend.

heapgay

Probably not going to happen, I'm sure you idolize them but I hate to break the news to you they are all dead.

I had heard before that Hitler himself was gay. Hopefully that doesn't offend you seeing how much you stick up for Nazi and all.

I have never once defended the Nazis.

You previously claimed that there were many gay Nazis and hinted they were gay-friendly.  That idea is blatantly untrue.

That's a Bullshit, where did I say that?

You were not telling the truth about the origins of the pink triangle

WTF you talking about? I never said a thing about the pink triangle. You did.

Where did I ever defend Nazis?

When I said the Neo Nazi needed to research their own history because there was gays in the Nazi party you chirped in with that there was no gays in the Nazi party that is what this whole thread is about. Have you caught up yet?

You stated...

Those Nazis were not openly gay and proud of it.

As to where I had to prove that there was actually high ranking members of the Nazi party that were gay. And you still spin sputter and try to change everything I stated. Seems to me that person who is pro Nazi would be upset someone called members of there dear Nazi party gay.

Maybe you should stick to arguing with Christians about the existence about God?

Accusing someone of defending Nazis is a particularly vile thing to do.   Best to be on solid ground.   In this case, you are not.

Epistte made no defense of Nazis.   She stated that the Nazis were generally against and abusive of homosexuals.  

Seems to me that person who is pro Nazi would be upset someone called members of there dear Nazi party gay.

This is pure trolling.   You owe epistte an apology.

10 Neo-nazi at protesting a gay parade ? OMG stop the press.

Exactly how many does it take before you say it's wrong? 

Maybe some one should inform them that there were prominent members of the Nazi party that were …..Gay.

And, Hitler had them killed when he found out. Learn all the history, not just the part you think makes you look good.

Photos from the event, which was attended by thousands of LGBT+ supporters, showed a group of around 10 neo-Nazis marching surrounded by police officers. Dressed in black with a number carrying firearms and shields, the NSM marchers tore apart pride flags and pushed over at least one counter-demonstrator. One even appeared to urinate on an Israeli flag.

So 10 neo-Nazis show up to face off against thousands of LGBT + supporters. WTF are they afraid of? The Nazis stood 0 chance against those numbers. The only reason they have relevance is the media gave them some.

Also, they were surrounded by police- but one managed to push over a counter protester w/o being arrested for assault. In Detroit, not likely. They urinated on and destroyed flags, how much do you want to be they paid for them? Again, Detroit police are not going to let them assault anyone and take their flags. 

But hey, mission accomplished by the assholes. 10 of them managed to panic and almost derail an entire parade of thousands. The media was there to give them full coverage, props, and stoke up the fear. Maybe the assholes will get 15 to 20 to show up for the next one thanks to the free publicity.

people started running after hearing what they thought was a gunshot

It's kind of unfortunate that we live in a world where a loud bang starts a stampede. I guess some of that is all the shootings we see and some of it is the world that LGBT live in. One day, I hope we can all be a little less nervous.
