re: Palestine supporters set up tents in New Orleans Jackson Square as protests sweep the US

Surprised you haven't descended to your ok boomer winning comment.

Nah, she's genuinely retarded.

You seem awfully naive

She is a true believer.

Have you seen the tents that cover every square inch of neutral ground during Mardi Gras? Those are way more problematic than these tents in Jackson Square and nothing is ever done about those.

---

The tents at Mardi Gras housed people who prevented students from going to their classes and forced graduations to be cancelled?

quote:

---

Y’all really need to get out more. People don’t speak like this anymore.

---

Maybe you need to get out more. This is America and we don’t support terrorist organizations.

quote:

---

I’d likely feel equally safe around both

---

Then you're an idiot. You're not ignorant, that would simply mean you lacked the knowledge. The knowledge is presenting itself to you, you just seem determined to not see it due to whatever leanings you have. That's idiocy.

quote:

---

According to whom? I interpreted their purpose to be garnering attention.

---

According to them and likely according to the four cops whom they injured when NOPD cleared them out. They are literally supporting a group which calls for the genocide of the Jewish people for no other reason than because they are Jewish. Do I need to post the video of the girl raped and killed by Palestinians on October 7th then having her naked corpse paraded through Gaza so people could spit on it and hurl rocks at it?

That's what your Jackson Square protestors support and you somehow have trouble believing they aren't out to intimidate others into joining them.

quote:

---

not everyone is scared of Tulane students.

Translation: "You got me and I'm too embarrassed to admit it so I'm just going to toss out the blanket 'you're phobic' response and hope this all goes away." Your response is sophomoric in its lack of depth and unoriginality. Just because someone doesn't agree with you doesn't mean they are afraid, no matter how desperately you need that to be so.

quote:

---

Do you interpret the other tent encampments around the city to have the same purpose? To intimidate others to joining their homeless encampments? Why or why not?

---

Again, with the ridiculous attempt to form some sort of equivalency. No one has stated "because they have tents...etc" That you thought this was a question worth being asked just underscores how lost you are on this.

quote:

---

Trying the old “I know you are but what am I?” on me, huh?

---

Truth is truth regardless of who says it first, last nor in-between. Just because you tried to pre-empt others by pretexting that any disagreement with you would be emotional doesn't magically make your stance somehow logical and/or objective, especially when you seem to believe that others can disagree with you only because they are emotional.

quote:

---

All of it is a diversion tactic

1. Don’t pay attention to the US border .. man that story died quickly

2.gonna have to have mail in ballots

---

Exactly. Just like his son leaving his laptop and his daughter leaving her diary. Each contributed significant diversions.

My grandmother tells me Jimmy Carter and Slick Willie had brothers who diverted a lot of attention.

quote:

---

because I’m not scared of everyone like you are?

---

I explained why, interesting that you chose not to quote it as well when revering to your knee-jerk "because skeered" generalization. Go back, re-read and learn.

quote:

---

by you is that I’m an idiot because you say so and I should be terrified of everyone in my community.

---

Quote where I said that. Don't worry, I'll save you the trouble: I didn't. You hide behind that generalization because it keeps you from acknowledging the uncomfortable truth that your worldview is woefully naive (to the point of being idiotic because there's an obvious willfulness in maintaining it). Rather than taking things as they are, you choose to take them as you wish them to be so you don't have to change (and acknowledging the world as it is would indeed change you).

quote:

---

Stay in whatever suburb you live in and rage online about tents in a city you’re too scared to visit.

---

My work takes me down there quite a bit. When there I'm usually staying on Jackson Square. Unless you live on the Square, I'll guarantee I've been awakened by the street-washers at 4am-5am far more often than you have.

quote:

---

that’s not what they said their purpose is at all.

---

Did you interview them personally or is this more of your looking at the world through a Tyco Viewmaster? I'm guessing the cops just hurt themselves.

quote:

---

You’re a small, scared man. Go ahead and get the last word. Maybe calling me stupid one more time will drive your argument home and you’ll garner more upvotes.

---

That's all you have. When someone points out how flawed your worldview is, you attack them in order to not have to recognize your own shortcomings. In this instance, that short-coming is to empathize with those supporting the killing of Jews. How very "final solution" of you, Frau Cubbies.

quote:

---

You have no idea what you’re talking about. You must have never been to any type of parade anywhere before.

---

You must not know a damn thing.

You can’t leave tents out all week long.


I used to live in mid city that has the biggest parade. That shite is up for that one Saturday, that’s it. And they get permits for these parades.

State troopers should already be tearing down the tents and pushing the so-called protesters out of the area. We don't need this commie bullshite to be on our turf!
