I never have the time to watch youtube, except when I want to listen to music and not pay for it. DTG, could yo please express yourself in words? in your words and not copy/paste if possible... Otherwise, I am going to tell to God you are naughty.

Oh goodie, honoring the "9/11 Truth movement."
And it's sad that an organization that purports to call for an end to anti-Semitism honors NJ Solidarity, a group which explicitly says Israel has no right to exist. It's really a pity. I am opposed to the war in Iraq specifically and the over-militarization of the country generally. But I cannot, in good conscience, support "peace movements" like this.

For the record, the rights social activists defend were not bestowed on us by the "capitalist pigs" (referencing DTG's clip). We were all born with them.
Certain powers, made up of a very small number who happen to control major wealth and influence, and whose wealth and influence is made only with the work and effort of countless others, would limit them, remove them, deny that birthright, even to those who help amass that wealth and influence. Power to the people.

Let's not forget he needs a gun to protect himself. I still can't understand why he was replying on the board on a Sunday at 10 AM, instead of being in the church.
DTguy, if you'll skip church next Sunday, God is going to give you a hard punishment, like legalize gay marriage all over the world. That will hurt.
