题目: Re: 116 dead,4 last week in Afghanistan since 2002
Jim Dandy:First of all, that link contained foul language. That alone disqualifies it for posting.
Secondly, it's not a political post. It is perhaps better posted on the TV board since your point seems to be against and entertainment/news organization.
Third, you didn't make an argument. You can't assume to let a link "do the talking for you."
Finally, these apply here.
*Quoting other sources is fine but do so in the context of your own argument. ---------- *Don't flood the board with quotes. Quotes should support the argument you are making, not BE your argument. ----------
Quotes, links, whatever the source, all the same here.
*Your freedom of speech here comes with responsibility, the responsibility to speak decently within the parameters of the rules.
Rules=guidelines.
There is no point to your posts and ultimately it can go nowhere. It's very old material and we've been down this path before and it's a dead horse.
*Don't beat a dead horse. If the horse is declared "dead" by the moderator, let it lie.
This goes for everyone on this board. Don't post a link and substitute it for an argument. Don't use this board to vent your own personal gripes about something. This board is no one's personal platform to air grievances. It's a discussion board.
