His father was Generalleutnant and Knight of the Order Pour le Mérite William Balck.

Weird....

That is weird.

Oak leaves, Swords and Diamonds?

What is that? Some kind of Nazi breakfast cereal?

No wonder we dont get new blood to this place...

Why not?

If he's gonna post like that then he has deal with the replies.

Anyone is subject to ridicule and finger pointing when they have a stupid post. Why should Wildchild be any different?

The original post was stupid.
The way it framed the argument was stupid.
The argument itself was stupid.

The follow up post resorted into idiot nutjob blog speak.

It's not that Wildchild is a bad person. He posted stupidity.
I'm sure there are loads of big girl panties he can put on to deal with the negativity.
Its certainly not worthy of some chick running in here crying "BUTTHURT!!!" "BUTHURT!!!"

the truly funny part is you post so self rightously proclaiming your victory in these type of discussions on a regular basis. it's really not that anyone thinks you are superior in these thoughts they simply grow tired of reading your very predictable responses. anyone posting a negative thought about XXX gets the same "oh you posted stupidly" response from you.
no big deal really.

I wasn't trying to be harsh, I just don't like the nickname thing. I wanted to point out that it is counterproductive for someone to start a discussion and then neuter anything they may say by using a stupid nickname just to get some visceral satisfaction.

O hell. It's racist now. I bet that african american lady wouldn't have said something if it was Bush Jr.

Yup...I do it all the time. You are absolutely correct.

Especially with post related to constitutional ickiness.

Same here, someone believes that Obama is a lousy president they burned him in effigy. Just because he is balck he doesn't get special treatment.

Agree 100%. While I think it is very disrespectful to the presidency of this country, it is still free speech w/o any type of threat.

The promised update to this original story.

Secret Service has concluded their investigation and found no reason for charges. Now the local PD is investigating the bartender at the request of the local NAACP, looking for possible racial motive. That is the one thing I don't like about our new leader. Apparently you can't simply dislike him. You either like him or you're a racist.
