You're obviously unaware of how the rating system works here.
And you obviously know nothing about me. Go figure.
Strangely enough, the "little triangle" is nearly dead center, and only seems to move a few pixels or so, in either direction, over time. No more than most anyone else's. I've seen them way off in the margins before someone got banned, so I don't think you are in mortal danger. But if the paranoia works for you, then, by all means, run with it. My level of give-a-damn is about >-< that much more than non-existent.
I use the rating system. I do my best to document why. If its blank then you must be a real ass hole.
Patricks just says "who doesn't like ice cream" I suspect it's no mystery, but I can elaborate. I do wish he would chill a little and temper his responses. See things from others perspective and perhaps not be as salty in his replies.

Tripping all over yourself to proclaim you don't "give-a-damn" is rather comical.
By the way, perhaps you should be addressing the individual who actually instigatedthe "neg" talk in this thread. But yeah, I get it. It's more fun piling on the guy with an opposing viewpoint.

There are PFF members whom I exchange barbs with in P&R (it's not a one-way "salty" exchange), but whom I try and treat with respect in the tech areas of the forum. I prefer civility over hostility, but I can be as much of an azz as anyone.

Naaah. Like I said, I really don't care. I just found it comical how you said you "got negged all the time" when your bar, and the little triangle, pretty much hover around 50%.
It's becoming more and more apparent with each and every one of your posts how much you "don't care". For sure, yep.

For the little triangle to remain in the red at all requires negative ratings on a regular basis, otherwise it would be exactly in the middle... or heaven forbid, in the green! The fact that the total ratings count doesn't usually increase indicates that it's negative ratings from members who've rated me previously. That's simply the way it is.
Give it up Raydar... you've misunderstood how the ratings system works, and for whatever reason you won't/can't admit it. It's not really a big deal. Let it go.

Oh I know how it works. If it's not a big deal, then you give it up. Jeebus. You whine like a crybaby liber... nevermind.

That video was nothing more than a selection of the most bitter and unhinged collection of left-wing talking points. All of his words boil down to "Trump sucks". Nothing more. Nothing less. And nothing new. It's got a bunch of hand wringing, pearl clutching, and "earnest sounding" words, but it's all the same bullshit. But yeah... He seems to think things are going to get worse? I'm certainly not campaigning for it. But I will respond to "the crazy".
Yeah... honestly, every single claim he made while he was being super dramatic, was all stuff that's either been debunked, or he totally misrepresented.
Like saying that Trump organized an assault on the Capitol building... which is so ridiculous. Every single thing he said was totally absurd.
Yes, the video may appear to be "1 sided"... but was anything he stated actually untrue? I fully understand why Trump supporters might find offense with what was said in that video, but ignoring the facts is not going to resolve the situation. For whatever reason, Trump is willfully feeding this frenzy.

LOL... "every single claim"!
Todd, this is how you destroy all your credibility in P&R. You do it time and time again.
...here's what I know. The left suffers overwhelmingly from mental illness. The research evidence suggests there is a measurable relationship between political ideology and mental health outcomes, with liberals consistently reporting higher rates of mental health issues across multiple studies.
You mean like this guy?

Like Fort Sumter, the siege A deadly shot at the 1st Amendment, the Dempartie_Nazi_Hamas_Communists sure don't like anything he said. The opening shot of the coming civil war, Americans expelling zombies from the Nation, open season on zombies, their leaders the first to go. Chicago, let it begin there, with great vengeance and furious anger, merciless retaliation, fire and sword, what the zombies understand. Pritzker, how they will howl when he too, takes a round to the coconut, drops a five pound load in his pants, sausages, potatoes and eggs for breakfast, a mighty big stool. Varmint 22-250 Piqued right wing regulators running amok, exacting reciprocal violence on the zombies, their sympathizers, foaming at the mouth Dempartie_Nazi_Hamas_Communists. ' Best you split, there's no sanctuary here in America ! ' Does that seem too harsh a response ? Twenty to one, hundred to one, 100 million ccp pla infantry coming over the hills, over the Canadian and Mexican borders, the inevitable World War. Gavin Newsom welcoming the Red Army into San Francisco with open arms, a Zombie leader. That would be fair in a civil war, Hair-Gel hit in Sacramento's elite bistro, making a mess. The squealing the msm would make. The madness of war. Everyone fights, No one quits !
Just my opinion but, it does appear that the "Left" has just made Mr. Kirk a martyr. His voice and mission may have just gained a lot of support. At least, his demise has help expose the evil in the Left that some refuse to see.
The reaction of people not on the left: shock, sadness, mourning, fear, calls for prayer. Reaction from the left: he brought it on himself, celebration, blaming anyone and everyone on the right, calls for more assassinations.
This is a strange one. There was a book listed the day before the assassination giving details of the assassination including stating the exact location the assassination happened. Amazon has removed the listing but it still shows up in search results which date it as existing the day before the assassination.
You are not even close to "trying to restore some sanity." You are doing your best to make this thread about you. You are a selfish narcissist capitalizing on this tragedy to get your political digs in.
"Forgotten"? Hardly. Nowhere in that video is the fella saying any of the ideas you're promoting. Yes, he blames rising political tensions squarely on Trump and the propaganda machine supporting him... but in no way is he calling for an escalation of violence.

LOL... I was referring to Bernie, not myself! You're too much!
' We are all Charlie Kirk ! ' ' I nominate AOC as the first Dempartie_Nazi_Hamas_Communist to be retaliated upon, then, Bernie, Schumer, many more zombie sympathizers, make a day of it, October 7, a few weeks to plan your action, prepare your manifesto. ' Fly to Seattle, take a cab to the coffee bistro downtown, open up on all the communists feeling invulnerable, make it a few baker's dozens, toss a few frags, make it like a party. The inevitable civil war's second act. Vengeance, the penalty phase of insurrection, murderers murdered, a kind of American justice long absent, like the old west, not like in the movies. Like at the carnival, fun for all ages ! Arm up, ammo up, open season on Dempartie_Nazi_Hamas_Communists, no limit, there are millions to be dispatched. ' You mean I get to waste zombies, and I won't be arrested ? ' ' Yep ! '

A Saint ! A hero, a brave man, he knew he was risking his life, opposing the Dempartie_Nazi_Hamas_Communists, the murderers. So, go to their hoods, seek out the demons, destroy them in their lairs, their leaders first, expel the demons from America. The Vampire Nancy's minions, Hair-Gel, Schiff, their sympathizers, sycophants, the Marxist murderers, waste them right back. See, they have declared war on the Constitution, you'll have to fight to keep it. Get to it this week, this is no time for hesitation. ' Remove the head, or destroy the brain ' ~ Shaun of the Dead

The thing I find most interesting about all of this... I've heard the name before, but I've really never listened to Charlie Kirk, or seen any of his videos. Yet... it seems like every single Democrat (including most of these people), know who he is. They clearly view him as an existential threat to their political religion.

Patrick is much like Charlie Kirk. He speaks his mind, willing to debate. Salty is like beauty. Skin deep.
Patrick is unafraid to speak his mind, much like Charlie Kirk.

People on Democratic Underground are trying to claim he's a Republican, because both his parents are Republican.
From the background, it seems like he was a totally normal child, with good grades, and a decent upbringing.
It seems that once he went to college, he became radicalized to the left, and dropped out of college. I'll give the benefit of the doubt and not blame the college. I know that permanent mental illness (in males) can typically develop (manifest itself) at any point from the age of 16-25 ... so it's likely this happened, and he just fell prey to propaganda.
He had multiple pro-Antifa quotes written on his ammunition.
