Why Charlie Sheen's Tirade Against Phil Robertson Doesn't Matter....

Humanity-depleted and integrity-deficient Charlie Sheen....

has a drug-and-alcohol-addled brain
is a high-school drop-out
is a domestic (wife) abuser
is a lunatic 9/11 truther
is a berserker property-destroyer

There's more, but that's sufficient to establish that he's many, many rungs below Phil on the human decency and intelligence ladder...

(To be continued.)

Duck Dynasty Graphic Memes...

...that will make Simpson turn purple and blow a gasket...   

I made them all except the first two.

 

 

 

 

Post List Update -- Simpson's Unhinged Obsession With VaFlaggers

Brooks Simpson has put on his personal flog dozens of posts about the Virginia Flaggers, illustrating his unhinged obsession with them. The titles of these posts were made into a list in November and posted here.

That list has just been updated.

Since the list was permanently posted in November, he has made eleven more posts that mention them, directly or indirectly. The list does not include posts that do not mention the VaFlaggers, even though they may be mentioned in the attached comment threads.

 (I do not count posts about me as VaFlagger posts, unless he mentions the VaFlaggers, directly or indirectly).

The updated figures are: 

  ~116 total posts between 12/29/11 and 12/21/13
  ~  92 posts in 2013
  ~  36 posts uploaded in 2013 before the first I-95 flag announcement
  ~  80 posts uploaded in 2013 after the first I-95 flag announcement

Hate and Bigotry -- Andy-Style

I've noted recently that Andy Hall hasn't exhibited the level of obsession with the Virginia Flaggers that Simpson exhibits.  That doesn't mean Andy's totally silent.  Over at Simpson's Carnival of Malice, he recently posted this:

Ah, yes, the trailer trash/slash/white trash stereotype of (white) Southerners.

We know from past history, that Andy has problems with images like this (although they are at least useful to bash white Southerners and Southern heritage folks):

 

But based on his statement above, presumably he would nave no problem with these:

 

 

 

So with his trailer park comment indicating that he's comfortable, even jocular, with hateful stereotypes of white Southerners -- trailer trash, white trash -- can "inbred" be far behind? How long before we see images like this, or links to them, on his flog, or in his comments at other floggers flogs?

 

______________________ Note: the bottom image is found numerous places online with accompanying text indicating the image depicts the effects of incest and inbreeding. Do a Google image search on the term Southern Inbreeding and this image comes up several times. But the only "South" it is associated with is South Africa. This photo was taken in Western Transvaal in 1993 by photographer Roger Ballen.The subjects are twins, Dresie and Casie. Various discussions on the Internet indicate that their physical deformity is not the result of incest or inbreeding but likely due to Fragile X syndrome, which is a genetic defect inherited from mothers and has nothing to do with inbreeding.

The Duck Dynasty Drama Continues

 

The Facebook page, "I Stand With Phil" garnered over a million Likes in 24-hours.

I wonder if the execs at A&E have reached the deer-in-the-headlights realization stage yet -- or whether they'll be like a duck and not know what hit 'em as they plummet straight down to the ground....

I Wonder What Corey Would Say About This

Phil Robertson Suspended from Duck Dynasty

A&E be SOOOO stoopid. Did they learn NOTHing from the Chick-fil-a  incident?

Fox News Story

Background check on A&E suspends Phil Robertson

I look forward to hearing that Miss Kay and the sons and daughters-in-law walk out on the show. I mean, it's not like they need the money....

The Crossroads Carnival of Malice, Part Two

         In one of the cases under discussion, someone made a bad mistake, is paying for it, and it trying to move on and move forward. You would think that at this time of year people who profess to be Christians would understand the meaning of their faith, instead of showing an unseemly glee about the whole business. But we would never understand just how base these people are if they did not have the freedom to show us their character and how they practice the faith they claim to follow.

        It’s not as if damaging personal information about some people in the Confederate heritage movement (including a story about a sex offender) doesn’t come into my inbox. I don’t see the point in going after them: why lower myself to their level? Chastain wasn’t interested in the welfare of children: she was just interested in playing the bully. Same with her chorus. Not that is should come as any surprise … but, again, it’s the freedom to express oneself that alerts us to just what sort of people they are.

~Brooks D. Simpson

Let's look at some of this a bit more in-depth.

You would think that at this time of year people who profess to be Christians would understand the meaning of their faith, instead of showing an unseemly glee about the whole business.

No glee on my blog, folks. The glee -- the rabid, frenzied glee is found in posts and comments by B. Simpson, BParks, LibertyLamprey and others about Carl Roden.

It is utterly fascinating that Simpson is defending a man who was arrested for soliciting children for sex as "someone who made a bad mistake, is paying for it, and it (sic) trying to move on and move forward" but excoriates Carl for writing a fanfic love story fourteen years ago. And how did Simpson likely find the fanfic?

He found Carl's handle, "Darth Roden" in a Facebook post, and he (or somebody) googled it, like I googled Mike Confoy.

Here's what Simpson found: https://www.fanfiction.net/u/334658/

Here's what I found: http://chantilly.patch.com/groups/police-and-fire/p/three-men-arrested-after-attempting-to-solicit-minors

So, Simpson is doing BACKGROUND CHECKS on heritage folks and then splashing them all over his blog -- multiple times (in case his dumbed-down sycophants don't get it the first time).

He and his frenzied floggerettes think that what HE found is BAAAAAD, but what I found was  "mistake."

He piously sez, "It’s not as if damaging personal information about some people in the Confederate heritage movement (including a story about a sex offender) doesn’t come into my inbox. I don’t see the point in going after them: why lower myself to their level?"

Who's level? I didn't "go after" anyone. The point wasn't to go after Simpson's "good friends" featured in the news reports. The point was to show the utter hypocrisy of BParks, LibertyLamprey, Simpson and the rest, and their disconnect from integrity -- for falling down and having seizures of hate about FICTION but saying nothing about one of their cyber-colleagues who IN FACT, in REALITY, solicited MINORS for SEX.

They didn't know about it? They do now, and the loudest screechers are silent about it, except Simpson, who is treating 14-year-old fanfiction as WORSE, morally, than soliciting minors for sex ("a bad mistake"). 

Maybe it was a mistake -- I don't know. All I know about it is what was in the online news story and an email I received. But even if it was a mistake, it is still so greatly more more immoral than a fanfic love story written by a 23 year old guy 14 years ago, they're not even on the same page...not even in the same book, really. 

What's truly sad is that the flogger and his floggerettes are so warped by their hatred of Confederate heritage that they can't see their own ethical disconnect.

(In the credit where credit is due department, Kristin Konate expressed appropriate dismay over the Confoy revelation. We're still waiting for BParks and Liberty Lamprey to express theirs.)

  UPDATE   UPDATE   UPDATE   UPDATE 

Simpson comments:

Yes … but now the members of the VMFA are on notice that a Flagger tactic is to conduct background checks, and that the person conducting them is Susan’s “heavy hitter.”

Somehow I don’t think that will go over well, especially as people who work on the grounds there read this blog.

I wonder if they enjoy his flog as much as I do!  So who put the VMFA members on notice? Simpson? I've wondered if there isn't some kind of  "friendship" between Simpson and the VMFA that would account for his obsession with the VaFlaggers -- an obsession his fellow floggers don't seem to share. An occasional post is all you see out of them anymore. I wonder if, secretly, they're embarrassed by Simpson's mania seen in his 104 posts about the VaFlaggers (actually more than that now)... They may even share some or all of his views about the VaFlaggers, but they seem content to leave the unhinged addiction and the showcasing of it (the flogger version of "heavy hitting"?) to him.

But I wouldn't want him or VMFA members to be disappointed, so ... here's yer VMFA background check:
