‘Daily Caller’ Apologizes For ‘Kill All The Jews’ Headline
It would be nice if grammar invaded the Internet, or maybe proofreaders.[su_center_ad]

Yes, that headline does indeed say “Kill All The Jews And When That Is Done Kill Those That Refused To Defend Them.” Apart from the fact that it needs a lot of commas, “Kill All The Jews” is not a good thing to put in a headline.
As soon as it was flagged, the Daily Caller quickly changed it to the far more innocuous “‘They Came For The Jews, And I Didn’t Speak Up.’ It’s Happening Again”, though “kill-all-the-jews” is still in the URL.)[su_csky_ad]

I thought all this Jew bashing was a thing of the past until just yesterday when that Kris Chringle guy responded to me and I went through his posts. I have never seen such vile comments…everything is anti-Jew, anti-Zionist, anti-Israel, the Jews are responsible for everything, own the media, all the universities, and control the world by forcing us to hate each other….oh, and he didn’t like colored (mixed race) people either. I hated to have to tell him I was darker than Obama…poor thing.

Unfortunately it is still with us.
It’s one of those frustrating things that have to be fought over and over.

Those types are as bad as the ones who rabidly scream “ANTISEMITISM” when anyone criticizes Israel.
Just get rid of Sky Daddy all together.

I wouldn’t equivocate. Screaming, “This guy hates me!!” may be stupid and self-serving in context, it may even be malicious, but it’s not the same as calling for the wholesale extermination of a people. Not to mention, some criticism of Israel IS motivated by antisemitism.

I think the Jew-hating has been put on the back burner for now. It’ll resurrect again once the Muslin-hating dies down.

Dunces.
One hopes the author and whatever editors were on duty at the time have been reassigned to some mindless menial labor like shovlling all the snow from their parking lot, cleaning toilets and the like.

Hmmm, am I reading this correctly? Is a right-wing rag showing anti-Semitism beliefs and thoughts? I am shocked, shocked I say!!!!!

I think it should say kill all the lawyers
AmusedAmused February 20th, 2015 at 6:22 am
What did I ever do to you?
rg9rts February 20th, 2015 at 6:40 am
I’ll start with the ex’s ….who was a friend….not where $$$$ is concerned…You know Bierce said that a lawyer is one skilled at the circumvention of the law
AmusedAmused February 20th, 2015 at 6:49 am
The question was, what did *I* ever do to you? I mean, thank you for the courtesy of killing me LATER, but I still would like to know why you believe *I* merit death. Boo-hoo, your ex took half “your” stuff. Cry me a river. If you think that going through an expensive divorce means you know pain, you don’t know real pain, man. Try people “joking” constantly about how great it would be to kill you, day in and day out, for years.
Also, I dgas what Bierce wrote. It’s drivel typical of people whose “skill” is knowing ****-all about law.

Half you should know the story ??? you are a fool if you think everything is like it is in your state…
AmusedAmused February 23rd, 2015 at 12:47 pm
I know the story because I know the law. The rules about conflict of interest apply in EVERY state.
rg9rts February 23rd, 2015 at 12:57 pm
Only 4 days to come up with a retort…Not the brightest bulb in the box are you…regardless of the arrogance you exhibit…Hubris DEAR hubris
AmusedAmused February 23rd, 2015 at 1:09 pm
Ahuh, so your response to the points I’ve raised is a bare and gratuitous personal attack. Impressive! You couldn’t have impressed me more if you stomped your feet and called me a mean poopyhead. Also, being the kind of fellow who advocates the extermination of hundreds of thousands of people in this country, and millions worldwide, because you are unhappy about your divorce, you should be the last person on the planet to talk about hubris. Also, too, I sometimes take days to respond because knocking down your hateful drivel isn’t the number one priority in my life (as I said previously, you, of all people, should STFU about hubris). I have a life outside this comment section; I suggest you cultivate one too.

My dear time for you to read Shakespeare ….Henry VI in particular.. a quote.. I sincerely hope you do better research for your clients or do referrals to a competent attorney
AmusedAmused February 23rd, 2015 at 12:46 pm
First of all, I am not your “dear”. Second, you clearly didn’t read the play. The line is uttered by a killer and a villain. In context, it means that lawyers are the ones who guard society from descending into a violent chaos. Then again, since you are advocating violent chaos, I can see how you would take this as your motto. Third, given that you congratulate yourself for knowing Shakespeare on the basis of mining for out-of-context one-liners, I submit you are no one to judge the quality of my legal work.
rg9rts February 23rd, 2015 at 12:56 pm
Then just go away and play in traffic…I didn’t choose to be in a profession that is conscienceless by definition…And if you think YOU know every state you are a bigger fool that it appears at first adios.
AmusedAmused February 23rd, 2015 at 1:15 pm
I know conflict of interest rules apply to every state like I know that shoplifting is illegal in every state. It’s Law 101. Also, given that you are advocating mass murder, your blathering about conscience is ironic, to say the least. And, you still haven’t answered my question.
rg9rts February 23rd, 2015 at 1:19 pm
Perry Mason you aint LOL
AmusedAmused February 23rd, 2015 at 1:36 pm
Really? You mean, your reason for killing Perry Mason (had he been a real person) would have been different than the reason you supposedly have for killing me? Do tell. And while you are at it, why don’t you go into details. Like, would you kill me yourself, or would you outsource that to professionals? How would you kill me? Shoot me, strangle me, stab me, electrocute me, peel my skin off? Some combination, perhaps? Would rape be part of it? If so, before or after? Or both? Don’t be shy now. To the extent that you advocate mass murder, it makes sense to discuss these particulars.

given that you congratulate yourself for knowing Shakespeare
Yea, people who say that line, clearly not understanding it, crack me up to no end. It’s OK to be ignorant, but to loudly proclaim one’s ignorance as proof that one is not ignorant makes me chuckle.
The rest of his generic anti-lawyer hoo-ha isn’t near as amusing, just tiresome. I’m not a lawyer, but lawyers tend to be smart, interesting people. And folks who just hate them by default? Well…
