oops, found another cherished value, the worship of the.....silence please.....FOUNDERS.(please see my old, long Americanist thread)..........it is a mortal sin to disparage in any way the.....sign of the, well, whatever.....FOUNDERS....
Cherished values, like elevating the USA to a New Jerusalem, god-like status.....
Never mind, almost to a man, they were anti-Catholic in though and in actions
Once again, you hysterical types are accusing me of saying things I've never said.
A value, per philosophic terminology and in terms of the definition I described, "An object with philosophic value may be termed an ethic or philosophic good."
It's sometimes used as an ethic or philosophic good.
Values such as honesty, fairness, courage, courtesy and precision, something I'm not seeing here.
I rarely ever get "hysterical", funny? sure, hysterical, hardly ever........even when I was an active patrol LEO....
"Values such as honesty, fairness, courage, courtesy and precision, something I'm not seeing here."
surely, you mean in general........precision, not sure what that means........courage, I find I have more then most trads (who are even now rolling out Romney stickers and worse, "anyone but Obama" stickers.....I am the 1% that does not surredner every election and vote GOP). Have you served in military, front line? or frontline on the "war on crime"? I have to the second......you put a target on your back as a cop, pull a car at 3AM and possibly, deal with a gang member wanting to make a name for gunning down a cop for no other reason then he is a cop.....did that, been there........
Honesty, that is me-I tell you up front what I think, pull no punches, though reserve often, out of charity, from being as direct as I am often want to be....
