Title: Should Newman go???
Post by: Boeregeneraal on September 06, 2007, 10:04:31 AM
Ok all, the JTF community has been shocked and rattled with the recent bad news that Newman wants to leave JTF

We cannot allow such a great member to leave our shores!

PLEASE vote and ACT!

I can't vote in this poll as I do not hold either of those oppinions, I believe that he is an asset to the cause and therefore should not be leaving, but I do not like him, so I can't call him great.

Newman should do whatever Newman decides is best for himself, and others here should stop with all of their "begging" and other theatrics.

Sometimes this website more resembles a Jr. High School gossip "slambook" than a Kahanist Judaism JTF Forum.

Newman should stay.  He's one of my favorite posters.  I think he'll come back, he just can't resist not posting.  He got a personal argument with Jeffguy but he's not kicked out or anything so he should just forget about it.

Well, whether newman should stay is really up to him.  Should he stay in light of what happened to him?  That's really hard to say because he was basically threatened to be banned and removed from the forum.  I want should do whatever newman thinks he should do. 

I'll rephrase the question.  Would I prefer he stay?  Yes I would prefer that he stayed, of course.

The fact that ftf doesn't even want him to go just shows how out-of-line with the typical JTF member this is.

Post by: Daniel on September 06, 2007, 05:19:17 PM
Although I find Newman to be amusing, I find his manners, views, netiquette, and lack of sensitivity (and sensibility) to be way beyond the pale. So I won't be one to complain if he decides to leave. I think he can use a little vacation and get some sleep and a life outside of this forum for once. We can all use a little break from his vitriol as well.

I think Newman is an obnoxious pain in the ass and ill-informed about many things. But I don't think it's up to us to decide whether or not he should stay or go. That's up to him as to whether or not he would like to stay and up to the mods as to whether or not he's engaging in anything that warrants a ban.

The debate is basically over.

Newman has changed his mind, and decided to stay.  Its a good decision.  His positives outweigh his negatives.

When someone posts us liberals they most of the time mean themselves and others. The "winky" seems to me to be a sign of complicity in this case. Everyone is entitled to there opinions however newman's posts and positions are as good or better then most folks here on the forum. For anyone to say less is sour grapes.
Title: Re: Should Newman go???
Post by: JewishTeddyBear on September 09, 2007, 10:44:30 AM
I have obviously missed something significant that has gone on in this forum, because for the life of me I do not understand why Newman would want to leave, or why anybody would want him to leave.  Other than the shiksa G-ddess of love, namely Kelly Maureen, Newman is my favorite commentator in this forum.  not that everybody else here is not good as well, but he in particular stands out as a man of impeccable logic who genuinely cares about the Jewish people, and about humanity in general.

Part of what baffles me is that I have never seen him get into a significant argument with anybody, or anybody get into an argument with him.  By argument, I mean a nasty exchange of insults as opposed to a civilized disagreement of opinions about the issues we discuss. 

In any case, whatever the reasons were for even considering throwing him out, I implore all of you to be as accepting as you can be for the people who are here.  The fact that a person would sign up to be on this forum, tells me that the person is probably an exceptionally good as well as intellectually courageous human being.  In fact, I have even more respect for the one or two liberals who I have noticed are in here, as they are taking us Kahanists on, and we all know how strong and unbendingly formidable we Kahanists can be.

The only time I would ever advocate kicking somebody out of the group, would be if it were obvious that the person is some kind of neo-nazi/islamofascist wannabe who just came on here to tell us Jews how much he admires adolf shitler/ahmediniNutJob.  Other than that, please let us embrace the spirit of our cherished right to free speech.

Black people have no integrity.  If you help blacks, they do not help you back.  In all honesty, the Black-Jewish alliance was the worst move in Jewish history.

Title: Re: Should Newman go???
Post by: JewishTeddyBear on September 09, 2007, 03:03:23 PM
I vote Kelly Maureen for President ;).  She would make our already great country even greater.

To Daniel or anybody else interested in reading this, while I can understand feeling offended when somebody openly expresses animosity toward Blacks, I have to say that I feel a sense of relief that there at least this one place on Earth that I can express exactly how I feel about them as well as some other groups.  Freedom of speech was never made a law because of mild speech; there would be no need for such a rule in that case.  Freedom of speech is precisely intended to protect controversial speech.

Plus, I have to say, that as somebody who loves the truth, I really detest political correctness.  While islamofascism is definitely our most dire external threat, there is no question in my mind that political correctness is the most insidious force from within American life.  Nobody is allowed to say anything that does not fit the liberal agenda; if we dare to break the mold, we are labeled racists, sexists, homophobes, islamophobes, and who else knows what other phobes as well.  We cannot even talk about the weather anymore, without the politically correct police mocking those of us who realize that global warming is utter nonsense.

Besides, some of us have a rather complicated relationship with whatever groups toward which we happen to have a less favorable attitude.  I think of my own attitude toward Blacks.  Yes, there are many Blacks that I dislike, but they tend to be of a certain, well-defined type which I already mentioned in a previous post (hint: Jesse Jackson.  Al Sharpton.  OJ Simpson.  Konye West).  Yet there are other Blacks who I deeply respect; in fact, I regard Thomas Sowell (along with British historian Paul Johnson) to be the two wisest gentiles living today. 

Plus, I actually think I am the very opposite of a racist, precisely because I am disappointed and disgusted with Blacks whenever they do NOT act as civilized as the rest of us.  I expect more from them than many liberals/Blacks do.  President Bush was quite right when he spoke about the soft racism of lowered expectations.

While the vast majority of us here do share a love of Israel or we would not be here, each of us are different people with different experiences.  We are bound to have differing opinions as well.  Before we can even get into arguing our respective positions, we must at least agree on respecting the right of each of us to express our views as we see fit.

Very well spoken Teddybear. You have an excellent way of writing and expressing yourself.

I don't have a problem with political incorrectness just as long as it's factually correct. The problem that I have with some of the remarks that Newman says about blacks isn't that it's politically incorrect, it's that it's just downright incorrect.

But from a legal perspective, yes, he does have every right to express whatever speech he chooses just like I have every right to dispute and refute anything which is inaccurate.
Title: Re: Should Newman go???
Post by: JewishTeddyBear on September 09, 2007, 03:17:07 PM
To paraphrase BJ clinton, that all depends on what is, is.  What do you mean by inaccurate?

This is not meant to pick on you, but I have too often had the experience of liberals absolutely convinced that they have the truth, and that conservatives are nothing but a bunch of backward, ignorant, bigoted hicks.  Just think of al bore, who stated that global warming is an irrefutable fact, and that the debate about it is over.  When I worked at the Beverly Hills Library, there was an antisemite there who insisted that every word of dhimmi carter's antisemitic book was absolutely true.

I think that most things are subject to doubt, except for my statement here that most things are subject to doubt.  ;D

In any case, thank you for complimenting my writing style.  Not to sound vain or anything, but so many people have praised me in this way, that a part of me thinks that maybe I can realize my ultimate career dream after all of being a professional author.  :)

There are two basic types of propositions in argumentation, propositions of fact and propositions of policy. Propositions of policy are opinions on whether something should or should not be in place. So if conservatives state things like Blacks should be segregated or that Blacks should be sent back to Africa, even though I don't agree with it personally, hey, they are opinions and people are entitled to them. But to state a proposition of fact like all or most Blacks are lazy, loud, stupid, and criminals, then that is stating a proposition of fact where you need to show a significant amount of evidence of prove this claim. It's not up to the person who disagrees with this proposition of fact to prove that it's NOT the case. It's up to the person who states the proposition of fact in the affirmative. He who asserts must prove.

ummm....I will not mention his name so as not to embarrass him, but I have a suspicion that there is a guy here who is very jealous of my relationship with sexy kelly maureen.  I probably made a mistake in being so open about our friendship, as it brings out the competitive male instinct in some testosterone-driven homosapiens.

to cjd and to others, thank you for your vote of confidence in me.  It is nice to finally be able to come to place where I can feel welcome.  This has not been easy for me, as I do not quite fit in to any other group that I can think of.  I am a Republican but not a blue-blooded, country club, gun-toting, term limits, let's-put-up-a-fence-along-the-border type of Republican; I am a proud, traditional Jew who thinks all non-Orthodox forms of Judaism are bogus, and yet I myself cannot honestly call myself an Orthodox Jew; I have a couple of university degrees in psychology yet am very skeptical of the field; I enjoy great literature yet cannot help but think my time is better spent studying the Torah; I think that Johann Sebastian Bach is the greatest of all musical composers, with his music being the music G-d plays in Heaven, yet I dislike about 90% of his music; and well, I think my point has been made.  I do not quite fit anywhere.

Except for maybe here.  From the comments I have read here since I have joined, I am often amazed that there are indeed other people who think very much like I do.  This is not meant to offend anybody, but I think all of us here are societal misfits in one way or another, not in any pathological sense, but rather in an ideological way. 

And think about it: isn't that what our ultimate modern day hero, Rabbi Kahane, was all about?  There was no bigger misfit than him; even on a purely religious level, I do not know if he comes closer to being a representative of Modern Orthodox Judaism or Chareidi Judaism.  Even his politics, which seems as clear as a bright, cloudless day, does not quite fit any mold.  He is known for hating the moslems, yet nobody understood the moslems better, and from what I understand, the moslems themselves respected and appreciated him for that.

A-rabs admired Rabbi Kahane becouse he was strong and honorable man of conviction; And he did respected them as real enemies with its own nationalist goals; not like Israeli left who treated them as children who'se colaboration can be bought for new schools and WCs; true Beduin A-rabs who lives along their traditional  honour code not sharia (unlikely this city dweling  Balestinain Rats with no principles aside venomous Koran) will never respect self hating whiny kikes like Olmert, Peres or Barak; those weak, coward and foolish schmucks bread only contempt for Jewish people.
