GOP Cowards
March 30th, 2003Last night, my lady went to dinner with some old friends. I was rocking it solo. I met a friend for dinner and we decided to go get coffee somewhere else upon finishing our dinner. He and I were in separate cars and I had parked around the corner. So I was walking down the main drag in Salt Lake City. I headed to my vehicle with a take-home styrofoam clamshell loaded with jumbalaya. I felt pretty good as I considered that I’ll have a nice little jumbalaya lunch one day soon at the new gig. I noticed a guy crossing the street carrying a home made sign bearing the words “Impeach Bush”. I yelled, “right on!”
He looked worried. I think he’s misinterpreted my intention.
As he gets to my corner, six or seven white male preppy ass college fuckers come laughingly running up and throw what appears to be water balloons at him at a high velocity. As the guy is hit, he says to his attackers, “I just want to talk to you about what I believe!”
I’m instantly enraged. Maybe it’s the years in San Francisco. Maybe it’s the utter self-righteousness with which the conservatives have waged this horrible war (on the propaganda front as well as the fronts in Iraq). Whatever it is, I’m so incensed, that I begin screaming “Fuck you, you fucking GOP Coward fucks” and “You are George Bush’s little bitches, you coward fuckers!”
Another pedestrian sees what is going on, steps away from his group of three friends as I tell them that the guy carrying the sign just got attacked by these fuckers. One of them instantly flips the bird and yells, “Fuck off!” while his friends decide that I’m obviously too volatile to be standing near and make overtures to the bird flipper that it’s time to bail from crazy boy.
At this moment, I realize that if the college fuckers want a piece of me, I’m alone. All my indignation isn’t going to pay for the ER bills. I walk to my car, needle firmly in the red, my resolve to counter fascist-born hatred googleplexed. I scream one last time, knowing that my meager voice can’t silence a nation hell-bent on blood.
Even in their most self-righteous, the left can’t muster hate like the right. Fight the Youth. The youth with poisoned minds.
God damned conservative fuckers. o

shame those conservative fucks are usually better armed than their liberal counterparts, be it with cruise missiles or water balloons.

Which is more disheartening, the ignorance or the blood-thirst? I nominate you for Prez in 2004.

That’s it. From now on, I”M gonna carry water balloons.

“We will teach our twisted speech
To the unbelievers
We will train our blue-eyed men
To be young believers.”
The satanic GOP (Gathering of Pigs) has done an extremely effective job of acclimating a whole generation of self-righteous Bush Youth in their service. The really sad thing is they believe they are serving the best interests of the nation in parroting the party line. Which means we gotta work twice as hard to rescue them from the darkness. Keep fighting the good fight. Regime change 2004. One way or another.

Shoulda doused them the jambalaya. It is a war; sacrifices need to be made.

Good call on the Fishbone lyric.
I did 7-10th grade in Salt Lake City in the mid 80s. Sounds like things haven’t changed a bit.

If you had been carrying a .45 you could’ve just pulled it out and shot those fuckers. Done and done. I mean, what’s the big deal?

March 31st, 2003 at 12:44 pm
at least i’m not alone in expressing violent intentions towards the self righteous fuckheads that are in favor of war.
the only difference is i went in on them - and the little coward bastards scattered.
March 31st, 2003 at 12:45 pm
awww yeah. fishbone. i saw them play at my high school in ‘88. fuck i’m old.
death to preppy-ass republican coward fuckers.

It’s so awful here in Mormon/Conservative country, isn’t it? I’m enraged daily at these self-righteous fuckers. It’s as if we are having our rights taken away if our opinions aren’t exactly as theirs are. What the fuck kind of freedom is that??!!

“Ignite the truth–
Restore sight to these blind”
Fishbone rocked on about fifty levels.
Jenny, I take offense to the Mormon comment. Some of the most liberal people I know are dyed-in-the-wool Mormon. Your comments don’t help, rather they perpetuate a stereotype that may divide rather than unite. There was NOTHING in Blurb’s post about Mormons. This story could have happended anywhere. Think before you speak….please.
On another note, I heard a story about a group of Anti-War protesters smashing up a National Guardsman’s car. I don’t think that that is right either.
Bush is killing this country of ours.

I’m glad to see there’s plenty of hate to go around.
March 31st, 2003 at 4:28 pm
Patatomic,
Mormon Conservatives are the ones, in my experience around here, that have causing me the most stress. Thats why I was specific. I wasn’t just throwing stereotypes out there… just my personal experiences. Sure, not all Mormons are that way, but I was specifically talking about the ones that are.
You can’t tell me they aren’t the majority.

Two words: You rock.
March 31st, 2003 at 7:27 pm
Hey from Australia! You’re my new hero
**sigh**

I was waiting for the part of your story where you smothered your jumbalaya in the “little bitches” faces. I had to waste a great leftover on an ass hole one time - it’s just not worth it.

Patatomic:
You mentioned that “Some of the most liberal people I know are dyed-in-the-wool Mormon.” Are you serious? You should really get out more if those are the most liberal folks you know.
What exactly does liberal mean to you? Perhaps I misunderstand the way you are using the word.
March 31st, 2003 at 9:16 pm
“Jambalaya.” That’s an A.
Of course, if you got it in Utah, it wasn’t really jambalaya in the first place.
I had to get that out of my system… good on you for not standing idly by while dude got waterbombed. War supporters are scary folk.

Jenny:
Of course Mormons are the majority politically and socially in Utah. I just don’t see how this became a Mormon issue.
If you have proof that the water ballooners are Mormon, then I will shut up.
Ms. Haplopia:
I am speaking both socially and politically. For almost ten years I lived in San Francisco and was deep in the Mormon community there. I used to attend the UC Berkeley ward for two years and associated with hundreds of people (both Mormon and non-Mormon) from just about everywhere who believed just about everything.
I believe that in my life I get out plenty.
Maybe you should get out more.
March 31st, 2003 at 11:40 pm
Moreover, Ms. Haplopia:
There’s a difference between saying “Some of the most liberal people I know are dyed-in-the-wool Mormon” and “Dyed-in-the-wool Mormons are some of the most liberal people I know,” which how you apparently interpreted pat’s remark. Do you see the difference? It’s a biggie.
There are all kinds of Mormons. Many (most, in Utah) are conservative. But there are also liberal Mormons, socialist Mormons, polygamist Mormons, foot-fetishist Mormons, mass-murderer Mormons, Mormons who eat dog meat, water-ballooner Mormons, anti-water-ballooner Mormons, Mormons with cinnamon rolls for ears and Mormons who need Mormons, widely regarded as the luckiest Mormons in the world.
Get out, Ms. Haplopia, and meet you some Mormons. They’ll be glad you did.
March 31st, 2003 at 11:54 pm
Sorry, Ms. Haplopia. I meant that there’s a big difference between “Some of the most liberal people I know are Mormon” and “Mormons are the most liberal people I know,” which is what you actually said pat said.
Nothing worse than careless condescending guy, which is what I actually am.
