Oh, look! An idjit!

My post of yesterday was responded to by one "Dean Berry", of Dean Berry Ministries. I think his response deserves special attention...

Dear Dean,

You wrote:
The Second Amendment means nothing outside of hunting.
Dean, you have got to be a special kind of ignorant to respond to a post containing a picture of enough military longarms (many with bayonets attached) to equip an infantry platoon with some babble about the 2nd Amendment and "hunting".
Our forefathers gave us that right to fend off a military takeover in the U.S. - by
either the left or the right.
I'm with you on that one, Dean. The Second Amendment hasn't got anything to do with duck hunting or protecting one's self from muggers. (Although those are both happy side effects of it.)
Apparently, since most gun owners are far right they didn't see fit to fight the far right takeover so here we are. On the verge of martial law.

You'll imitate your German counterparts of 70 years ago. You'll allow them to take away any weapon that gives you parity with the military. You know you barely made a peep when the Brady Bill took away your assault rifles, which is what you'll need to effectively combat troops.
Well, first of all, I wouldn't describe me as "far right", unless by "far right" you mean "anarchist". Second of all, nobody's taken any guns away from me, so I don't have a clue what you're talking about. You also seem to be a little confused about the Brady Law, which mandated background checks, and which had nothing to do with the now-defunct Assault Weapons Ban of 1994. (Read a paper since September of '04? Can I interest you in a folding-stock Kalashnikov? We have them on sale at work...)
What a bunch of cowards, and what a sore disgrace you are to our forefathers who gave their blood for the likes of you.
I'd rebut this one, but I'm short on time because I have to get to doing The Lord's Work; selling evil black semiautomatic rifles to the public. (We also got in another machine gun. Anybody interested in an HK33?) Whatchoo doing on that front today, Dean, other than clogging up my inbox with your unfocussed ravings? Go play in traffic.

Sincerely,

The VFTP Management Team

PS: I think you should know that you give religious loonies a bad name.



Heh.

Well, that was cleansing.

Anyhow, I've used up so much time typing that I don't have time to suit up and take the bike. Guess I'll have to drop the top on the Beemer. Sucks to be me. :)

This "Dingle Berry" has been spamming a lot of blogs.

Yeah, he left the same comment at my place.

I'm crawling through your sitemeter, but it's not really helping me, as I think I got to it too late.

You can tell from the poorly formatted paragraphs that he just pasted in something and moved on. I got the exact same screed on a RFID post.

I'm guessing that he's some guy that did a drive-by wifi at the local Motel 6, but maybe he was a guest.

(all of his web pages have the page title of "page title", he's a yahoo using yahoo.com)

If you're brave enough, you can go here:

http://www.deanberryministries.org/index4.html

and listen to an embedded mp3 (thank goodness I automagicly block crap like that)

Except for that, his pages are safe to visit, with just some standard tracking javascript and a "beta.easyhitcounters.com" visit counter

Whoops, I think I found his address and phone number. I'm not sure, but I'm considering spamming that info all over the web too. He's right down the street from a Motel 6 in Wells, NV (where he got his wifi, I'll bet).

Funny, I drove right through there a few years ago on my way to Yellowstone.

Unknown said...

Apparently, the Lord didn't include your neighbor's WiFi broadband connection when He said "Thou Shalt Not Steal".

Interesting.

Paul said...

As a religious loony, I'm sort of offended that you put him in my category. :-)

Well there is a bit of debate on whether or not he's really “stealing” wifi. I mean if I walk down the public sidewalk and trigger your motion sensing porch light, am I stealing electricity from you? How about if I sit down on the sidewalk and read a book in your porch light?

There's even a VoIP/wifi phone that looks like a cellphone and automagicly connects to any open wifi port. If you have good coverage, you simply make and receive calls, no configuration or fuss.

If you establish a connection using a default password or crack in by sniffing “interesting” packets however, that's clearly stealing.

If you continually trip my motion sensing light so that you may read your paper at night without using yor own electricity,then you are, indeed, stealing from me.

If you continually trip my motion-sensing light so that you may power your solar cell power source for your cell phone, then you are stealing from me.

Anonymous said...

Well, I'd just ask you kindly to stop pointing the motion sensor at the public sidewalk that happens to be off your personal property.

Oh, and please keep your radio waves out of my personal airspace too, thanks.

I'm just playing devils advocate here, but what happens if you buy your wifi router, keep it stone stock, and plug it in to your DSL line, and I'm in the next house over and I turn on my stock configured powerbook, and it by default powers up and the wifi thingy inquires of the strongest local signal (your router) for a DHCP address, and your router replies with one.

To recap, all you did was plug in a router, and all I did was turn on a laptop, yet our bought devices are suddenly talking to each other.

Who committed the crime here?

Read the manual on your router and put a simple password, or have it deny unknown MAC addresses, or something.

Here's a thread that starts off addressing the wifi/"trespassing" thingy and then dissolves into babble about more abstract things like ownership of the rings of Saturn and whether or not rights exist independently of the human mind.

I think it's still worth reading, at least the first part, if you are interested in getting both sides of the story.

That dork left the same SPAM crapola on my site. I deleted it, he's a turd.

I anonymously drug my eyes through his website a few minutes afo. After liberally applying large amounts of Visine, I can confidently say this guy's duct tape is wrapped way too tight for safety. I had wondered why Alcoa stock had taken an uptick.

Next time anyone hears of him will be on either Dateline or the local news channel after he meets some 13 year old girlchild he's met on the Errornet for 'counseling sessions' at Chuck-E-Cheese's and instead meets the cybercrimes team.

Been awhile since I've run across anyone quite so paranoid who was still attempting to function in society, such as it is. I imagine once his parole officer gets wind of his antics it'll be dealt with.

Regards,
Rabbit.

I just repaired his wording to show his actual, intended meaning.

EXPERIMENT CONCLUDED. THERE'S NOT A DIME'S WORTH OF DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE LIBERALS AND THE CONSERVATIVES.

IN JESUS' GLORIOUS AND HOLY NAME,
DEAN BERRY MINISTRIES

TRUTHMONGER said...

I love You, Jesus Christ. As time goes by You vindicate me. Thanks.

Blog owner, where can I send you your CHICKENSHIT AWARD? It's ready.

I'll expect an answer right away.

Tam said...

You ain't dead yet?

TRUTHMONGER said...

You notice how these "jewish" cunts always censor anything that doesn't agree with Her Cuntness. I don't see any pro-Berry comments. Americans hate outspoken people as much as the communists do.

TRUTHMONGERDOTINFO said...

So, cuntface, are you a liberal or what? You put down Christians like a liberal. Yet you, cuntface, seem to agree with 2nd Amend rights. You're just confused. Hey, a confusative. That's what we'll call you. Berry's right: chickenshit's like you are all about going along to get along. When guns are outlawed you'll be turning them in. You'll be called a terrorist if you don't.

Tam said...

Jewish? Oh, jeezis, you're one of those freaks with eyeholes in his bedsheets, aren't you? I hate Illinois Nazis...

The reason you don't see any "pro-Berry" commenters is because you're a lonely, lonely dude. I haven't censored anything; it's just that nobody's speaking up in your defense except for your sock puppets.

Why don't you go play a quick round of Stop-The-Locomotive and come back and tell us your score?

Justthisguy said...

Dang! I hardly ever get any comments on my blog, let alone mean nasty ones. And yes, if I did get mean nasty ones, I'd leave 'em up there, being annoyed at bloggers of leftish persuasion who delete comments they don't agree with. (I'm thinking of you, Clay) There is an obvious spam comment I need to delete.

The Raving Prophet said...

For some reason I do not remember Jesus often using the term "cuntface."

Mental illness, it's a horrible thing to behold.

Oh, and Tam, is your Passover seder at the same time this year?

Earl said...

Ah, well, glad you are working Tam selling black guns or other stuff. I don't think real Trolls write English as poorly as this fella, but you are correct, this character is not pretty. Time to go jog, and hope a fourteen year old in a stolen car doesn't run right over me. Have to get away from strange telephone calls.

John B said...

Tam! You're Jewish? How come I never seen you at any meetings? Y'know, the secret public conspiracy, of unpopular faiths to conquer and enslave the moronic, ostensibly white, trailer trash, paranoid, asses.... er masses.

Sometimes I think these guys are pitiful. I mean if there wasn't a global conspiracy of less than white people out to steal their mortgaged trailer, and defile their womenfolk, they wouldn't have anything at all.

If the evil, vicious mongol-franco hoards raped their women, I suspect the MFs would be the ones degraded.

If you're Jewish, How come you enjoy so much un-kosher foods?

Sorry Tam, I felt a litle counter- trollish today.

I think I became the monster....

Fudgie Ghost said...

Tamara: you don't LOOK Jewish. . . huh. .

20 levels of WoW there Tam..... really.

Top of the Chain said...

Jewish, I thought Tam was Druish WTF?!?!

Oh well, may the Schwartz be with you.

Fuzzy Curmudgeon said...

He wants Jewish, he should come spam me.

I'll just sic my Christian relatives on him.

Anonymous said...

So, Tam, you're circumcised?
Who knew?

Tam said...

I thought that was more of a Muslim thing.

The bris? I'm pretty sure the other team has a different name for it. Oh, wait, you're female. Well, allegedly...I mean, you did keep your Hebrew ancestry secret from us, so what can we really trust?
