hakki indicated that he thought i was a man before i said that. i get a little tired of getting consistently misread, which is what he did and which is why i got fed up. if you don'tunderstand something, then re-read. . it was really clear what i was saying. ian got it. so, if Hakki can't get it, someone who is clearly familiar with an american idiom, then he can tell it to a cushion. it is not my fault in the fucking least.

i didn't suggest that she should have shut up. i even said in my first fucking post yay for her that she resisted. what is ignorant is that she is outraged because of the treatment she got. it is stupid, in this climate, to think that you're not going to get shat on for the things she did. which was why he kept saying, "don't you understand what happened on 911 lady"
worse, it's a slap in the face to the people who get shat on like that every godamned day.
i say FOAD because i'm sick to death of the few folks here that would prefer not to actually comprehend what was written. it was pretty plain what i said. sometimes it helps to go back to the first post and take it all in before responding.
