UHH is a privately operated forum, ostensibly about photography. Because it is privately operated, Admin decides what is appropriate content and behavior. More to the point, it is not a public place and speech can be and is regulated at Admins discretion. The First Amendment doesnt apply.

That said, Admin has chosen to allow larrypayne to run off at the mouth spewing bigotry, hate and insults, and Admin only gave larrypayne a slap on the wrist for daring Admin to do so, not because he has no interest whatsoever in participating on UHH as a photographer.

Groucho Marx said, I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member. Well, I refuse to remain a member of any club that would have larrypayne as a member.

Been nice knowing most of you.

I think your reasoning is foolish. But if you are going to leave why don't you just quietly leave and stop advertising the fact? It seems to me you've talked like this before. There must be a reason that you keep talking about it. Maybe you like all the attention it brings to yourself when the members attempt to talk you out of leaving. Well, I'm not going to do that, what I will do is hold the door open for you.

To me, Larrypayne is just another reason we need an "ignore user" feature. I think he has said one thing that I agreed with, and that was probably something I read wrong.

Do what I do, enjoy the best and ignore the rest. As my momma used to tell me never let the bastards get you down.

RMM, if you're still here, and I know you are, why don't you just once include some of the bigotry, hate and insults you allege I have spewed so readers can compare what I post to the bigotry, hate and insults spewed constantly by you and the other rat packers against the Muslim religion?

If I criticized Muslims, you would never complain and I would be accepted unanimously into the rat pack. But, since I post comments and topics which reveal the treachery of Zionism you cannot bear to read what I post. You rarely ever attempt to debate what I post and the one time you have, you performed poorly. Almost all of your replies to me have been insults.

I doubt if the majority here will be sorry to see you go from the Chat section. Insults are all you have to add.

But you aren't really leaving, are you?

Larry, we the readers of this forum have compared what you wrote to what other posters have wrote and we find that you are guilty of hate, bigotry and anti-Semitic against our Jewish friends. We would much rather see you go then anyone else on this forum. However, this is a country that values freedom of speech and it would be wrong of us to ask you to leave. However, we do wish that you would shut your mouth about Zionist and your conspiracy theories. Is that the only topic you know?

Larry.
How can ANYONE show sympathy, or empathy, to a group of individuals who WILL murder others just because they have a different belief? (Unless YOU ARE A MUSLIM.) This is a malignant cancer on our Planet and must be dealt with the same way.

I notice you don't include any examples of hate and bigotry from my posts either. Is it possible you are unable to find examples that illustrate what you are accusing me of?

Criticizing Zionism is not anti-Semitic. Zionism is a political movement much like Nazism. Criticizing Nazism would not make me anti-German.

Neil, you show empathy with Israel who carpet bombed Gazans imprisoned in the Gazan compound for 22 days. 1,400 Palestinians were killed including 300 children. 20,000 were left homeless. Operation Cast Lead was mass murder. There is no other way to describe it. Show me where Muslims have committed an equal act of terror? http://www.amnesty.ie/our-work/operation-cast-lead

Larry! You are sounding like a broken record. Actions count. Remember 9/11? You are an ignoramus to believe this wasn't the mad al Qaeda.

I remember 9/11. I remember that no proof was ever provided that Muslims were involved. I remember that when 9/11 victims family members finally forced Bush to conduct an investigation, Bush stipulated that the 9/11 Commission investigation should not investigate to determine who was behind the attacks but instead to study how to avoid this type of attack in the future. Bush and Cheney would not testify before the Commission without being together and behind closed doors, with no records taken of their testimony. Isn't this strange behavior since the members of the Commission were hand picked by Bush and Cheney?

Here you are again trying to hi-jack another thread that is not yours. Larry, we are tired of hearing about your bigotry of the Jews and of our own Government.

Larry. You have proved yourself a delusional psychopath.
Please do not respond to any of my posts. They will no longer have any reference to you , or your ravings. As far as I'm concerned, you don't exist.

I was responding to Neil--not hijacking anything.

You haven't yet provided any comments I have made that show bigotry.

Showing corruption in our government is an act of patriotism.
