    lol.

    This guy's first post with text in it involves me, and a sucker-b****-punch under the protection of a discussion he isn't part of (everytime)---its pathetic really. Never mind, the semen swapping you're currently engaging in, if this is what you've been reduced to... I won't even bother addressing your factitious post. :grin:

    You're not worthy anybody's time, sorry bro. Though some of the other posters in the space-X thread that left a giant mountain of feces on you might want you back.

    I'm glad you think so fondly of me, we disagree but I respect you at least...so I'll leave it at that :).





    Lastly, I'll reiterate what I said, posters trying to be clever in pruning quotes and starting off by a "Let me Recap what just happened" ---like really? (You're practically walking around with a sign saying "The guy that didn't piss on the toilet seat this morning" ) are being deliberate in their attempt to falsify information, and in this instance someone else's tragedy at that. Its a level of shame that should be denounced by everybody, regardless of whether you excel at swapping semen like Bandwagoner, or don't have an opinion on the matter at hand in general. Its wrong, disgraceful, and should be ban worthy imo. I've had arguments with dandorotik before, we disagree in the GARM a lot and he has attacked me. That being said, some psychiatric basket case coming in and using someone else's tragedy to their advantage is deplorable. I wish I could use the excuse that he is stupid, but ATW crafted that entire post with the aim pretty clear----just scroll up a couple of posts and look at it.

    Deplorable act, extremist muslims like this need to be thrown in a ditch and the clerics that incite the hatred be used to cover up their corpses. Its also deplorable to use the tragedies of others to your advantage. I also believe that the region itself is suffering from terrible inhumane acts in general, some of which I posted but are repeatedly ignored by the agenda side on here (not you obviously).

    I think you're pretty unbiased and speak up for what is wrong, a marine originally from Bangladesh (correct me if I am wrong). If ad hominems are really so bad, you'll have no problem in condemning what was ATW's first response to dandorotik...I mean just look at this. It reeks of "i'm insecure let me prove myself and attack you."


    *gasp*...

    Could it be that the entire argument he had with him was maybe because he is an insecure psychiatric basket case that likes to sit behind a keyboard to hide his insecurities?

    No wait, its better that he should just wait a couple of pages, and then do his "Let me recap what actually happened"---pretty much showing he has to frame the story and use a tragedy to his advantage, saying that dandorotik somehow condones these acts. Dude is a damn coward. The second he's going to read this, he'll be fuming and start with passive aggression and then act like none of what I said bothers him---because its not like his sole source of excitement is garnering sympathy through the tragedies of others in the D&D right :rolleyes:

    To top it off, he'll reference me as True Beaner, my old moniker before I asked Clutch to change it---something I'm still curious to understand the logic behind because its clear the issues are not too important to him.

    I find your 180 in the thread to be the most interesting of all of the deflections and source attack over content.

    If people wish to discuss other topics they are certainly free to start other threads yet all they want to do is denounce the importance of threads that produce pages of content.

    I will continue reading to stay informed of if you deem this thread is funny or sad "bro". Possibly dependent on what meds you are currently on.

    The best part about reading this is how you justify it all. Like I said, I don't think you have substance worth attacking so I'll encourage you to continue and follow me around ;).

    You're like the BBS equivalent of a child that responds with immature behavior when faced with the task of acting like a big boy. Your infantilization is complete. Nice job.

    English professor hacked to death in suspected Islamist attack in Bangladesh

    An English professor has been hacked to death with machetes in an attack authorities believe was carried out by Islamist militants.
    Rezaul Karim Siddique died after being hit from behind as he walked to a bus station in Rajshahi, in the north west of Bangladesh.
    The 58-year-old taught English at the city’s public university.
    The city’s police commissioner, Mohammad Shamsuddin, said: ‘His neck was hacked at least three times and was 70-80% slit,” said Rajshahi police commissioner . “By examining the nature of the attack, we suspect that it was carried out by extremist groups.’

    Prof Siddique is believed to have been involved in cultural programmes, and set up a music school in a former stronghold of banned Islamist group Jamayetul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB).
    Deputy commissioner of police Nahidul Islam said: ‘The attack is similar to the ones carried out on [atheist] bloggers in the recent past.’
    Police say Prof Siddique is the fourth professor from the university to have been murdered, with two Islamist militants given life sentences for the murder of Professor Mohammad Yunus in February.

    I'm beginning to the think the Planet of the Apes is a true story.

    Human beings have become delusional.

    We have religion, then we have idiots who think that McGrady did something for the Rockets and we have Jeremy Lin fans who just like a dude because of race.

    Damn them all to hell.

    Yeah I agree with you on this one 100%. Religious zealots really just reflect people who are insecure and obsessive and need a way to separate themselves out from the rest of the society as a group and pretend they are superior. Sort of like the cult of the 99ers



    Everyone reading this forum is either laughing at you or shaking their head aside from about 5 posters.

    Editor of Bangladesh's first and only LGBT magazine killed
    Xulhaz Mannan hacked to death in country where several academics and bloggers have been brutally murdered


    [​IMG]

    The editor of Bangladesh’s only LGBT magazine has been killed in the latest of a series of horrific murders of bloggers and activists.

    Xulhaz Mannan was one of two people hacked to death in an attack in the capital, Dhaka, police said, by a gang posing as couriers in order to gain access to his apartment in the Kalabagan area of the city.

    Mohammad Iqbal, the officer in charge of the local police station, confirmed that about six people had entered the apartment building and hacked Mannan and his friend to death in a first-floor flat. Two other people were seriously injured.

    “A person came with a box identifying himself as courier service personnel. Xulhaz took him upstairs to his flat,” Iqbal said.

    Mannan, 35, was the editor of Roopbaan, the country’s only magazine for the LGBT community and also worked at the US development agency USAid. The magazine had been launched in 2014 to promote greater acceptance of LGBT communities in Bangladesh.

    A security guard at Mannan’s building said the group had identified themselves as courier company officials when they arrived at around 5pm. “Half an hour later, I heard shouting and shooting sounds from the flat and went to look into the incident,” he told the Dhaka Times. “The assailants then attacked me with knives.”

    Police said they had found the box, but did not divulge its contents.

    Marcia Bernicat, the US ambassador to Bangladesh, condemned the killing. “I am devastated by the brutal murder of Xulhaz Mannan and another young Bangladeshi,” she said.

    “We abhor this senseless act of violence and urge the government of Bangladesh in the strongest terms to apprehend the criminals behind these murders.”.

    The deaths of Mannan and his friend adds to a series of horrific murders of bloggers and academics in the country. It comes two days after Rezaul Karim Siddique, 58, an English professor, was hacked to death with machetes as he walked from his home to a bus station in the north-western city of Rajshahi.

    Earlier this month, Nazimuddin Samad, 28, an atheist blogger was murdered near Jagannath University, where he was a law student.

    Mannan, as well as be4ing editor of Roopbaan, had been behind an annual “rainbow rally” in Dhaka, which since 2014 had been held on 14 April, at the beginning of the Bengali new year. It was cancelled this year on police instruction.

    Shateel Bin Salah, a close friend of Mannan’s, currently in the US, said Manning had told him on Facebook that after the rally was cancelled four participants were arrested and only released after their families had been informed “that their sons were homosexuals”.

    Homosexual relations are criminalised in Bangladesh and many LGBT activists have been forced into exile.

    Bin Salah described Mannan as “my elder brother, friend, guardian, mentor”. He said the two had known each other since becoming friends through the online LGBT group Boys of Bangladesh, where members would talk about their daily struggles and challenges.

    “People would make friends there, virtual friendship under pseudo names as no one trusted nobody … insecurity was high in that group, but he shared a series of photographs on Dhanmondi Lake on a winter morning and posted them under his real name Xulhaz Mannan,” he said.

    “Xulhaz was the first openly gay person I had known. He was out to his close university and school friends, out to his colleagues, and everybody loved him to bits … he introduced me to a world where straight people did not care what my sexual orientation was.”

    Champa Patel, Amnesty International’s south Asia director, said: “There have been four deplorable killings so far this month alone. It is shocking that no one has been held to account for these horrific attacks and that almost no protection has been given to threatened members of civil society.

    “Bangladeshi authorities have a legal responsibility to protect and respect the right to life. They must urgently focus their energies on protecting those who express their opinions bravely and without violence, and bringing the killers to justice. The authorities must strongly condemn these horrific attacks, something they have failed to do so far.”

    Rashed Zaman, a professor of international relations at the University of Dhaka, said. “This is unacceptable. People may have belief and orientation but at the end of the day everyone has their own individual rights to live the life they want.

    “I firmly believe in spite of the many difficulties I think our law enforcement are more than capable enough to unearth these cases if they put in effort.”

    ---------------

    Note how the leftist Guardian painstakingly avoids mentioning the words "Islam", "Sharia", "Islamists" etc. in this article. They just write "Homosexual relations are criminalised in Bangladesh and many LGBT activists have been forced into exile."

    Why? Because Islam.

    Why does the Guardian not say it? Because leftist.

    They also make a huge effort to not talk about the actual motive of the killers - their religious/ideological belief in Islam.

    You can't do that, it is dishonest journalism - if they are inspired by Islam it should be called out.

    Here is the Associated Press article, in the Daily Mail:

    2 men including USAID employee killed in Bangladesh

    NEW DELHI (AP) — Unidentified assailants fatally stabbed two men in Bangladesh's capital Monday night, including a gay rights activist who also worked for the U.S. Agency for International Development, police said, in the latest in a series of attacks targeting atheists, moderates and foreigners.
    Police said they suspected radical Islamists in the attack, which occurred two days after a university professor was hacked to death. There was no immediate claim of responsibility.
    The victims were identified as USAID employee Xulhaz Mannan, who previously worked as a U.S. Embassy protocol officer, and his friend, Tanay Majumder, according to Mohammed Iqbal, a police officer in Dhaka's Kalabagan area. Mannan was also an editor of Bangladesh's first gay rights magazine, Roopbaan, as well as a cousin of former Foreign Minister Dipu Moni of the governing Awami League party.

    The U.S. ambassador condemned the killing, just weeks after the U.S. government and numerous rights groups urged the government of the Muslim-majority country to better protect its citizens and secure free speech.
    "I am devastated by the brutal murder of Xulhaz Mannan and another young Bangladeshi this evening in Dhaka," Ambassador Marcia Bernicat said in a statement. "Xulhaz was more than a colleague to those of us fortunate to work with him at the U.S. Embassy. He was a dear friend."
    Security guard Mohammed Parvez told reporters that five or six young men posing as employees of a courier service entered the six-story building where Mannan lived and went upstairs to his unit. He said they hit him with knives later when they left. He was treated at Dhaka Medical College Hospital for his injuries.
    A man who told local broadcaster Somoy TV that he had witnessed the attack also said at least five young men took part in the killing. He said they chanted "Allahu Akbar," or "Allah is Great" as they left the scene.
    Bangladesh has been riven by a wave of deadly attacks on foreigners, religious minorities and secular bloggers, raising fears that religious extremists are gaining a foothold in the country, despite its traditions of secularism and tolerance.

    Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's government has cracked down on domestic radical Islamists. Although the Islamic State group has claimed responsibility for several attacks, including the killing Saturday of university professor Rezaul Karim Siddique in a northwestern city, Hasina's government dismisses the claims and insists the extremist group has no presence in the South Asian country.
    The U.S. government earlier this month said it is considering granting refuge to a select number of secular bloggers facing imminent danger in Bangladesh.
    "We abhor this senseless act of violence and urge the government of Bangladesh in the strongest terms to apprehend the criminals behind these murders," Bernicat said in her statement.
    The rights group Amnesty International also pressed the Bangladeshi government to do more, with its South Asia director, Champa Patel, saying that Monday's attack "underscores the appalling lack of protection being afforded to a range of peaceful activists in the country."
    The group noted that homosexual relations are considered a crime under Bangladeshi law, making it harder for gay activists to report any threats against them.
    "There have been four deplorable killings so far this month alone. It is shocking that no one has been held to account for these horrific attacks, and that almost no protection has been given to threatened members of civil society," Patel said.

    Of course, the Guardian left the bolded part out of their article.
