Nothing in there about Mac users... just a guy claiming people are upset
with him about the Nano suit. Furthermore, providing the guy is on the
level and there were threats, it could be Nano owners who made them...
which are not necessarily Mac users.

That's not proof, Josh. There are reasons why people do weird things
when they are involved with lawyers and lawsuits. We have no idea what
his real motives are here. He may be telling the truth about threats,
but even accepting that, there is no proof that the threats are from Mac
users. They could be people posing as Mac users. They could even be
plants that he is using to preserve a portion of his countersuit. They
could be Nano owners who feel he is lying and Apple is being targeting
unfairly. Are Nano users only Mac users? Apparently, you don't see how
many holes your position has here. It's all conjecture at this point.

Let me count how many times you have taken race of people and made a
hatred slur against them! You have no right to use the word! It is
people like you that have discriminated against my family because my
mother happen to have "dark" skin (Native American). We even had a
cross burt on my Uncles lawn! So people like you that hide their white
robes in the closet.

The only reason he objects to the use of his name in the lawsuit is
because of the hate mail and attacks he and his fiance have received

Then you're going to have to call "foul" on an awful lot of people, as

C'mon, you know yourself that any author who publishes a negative story
about Apple gets letter bombed with hate mail from Mac Fanatics. Do
you really think these same people are going to ignore a plaintiff in a
lawsuit against Apple?

Just like you should define and defend your accusations, Steve, but you
don't. Look how you run every time you are asked to. Heck, I started a
thread where I specifically asked you to defend your accusations and you
failed to defend a single one... no less all of your bigotry induced flames.
You are a horrid bigot, Steve. There really is no reasonable doubt.

It's not relevant to Josh entitling a thread the way he has with no
proof other than this guy's word. The guy is involved in at least one
suit and probably a counter suit... he may have motives you aren't
considering. Claims of being threatened may be proven false before this
is over.

You don't think such emails can be faked? Anyway, the point is neither
you nor I know anything about what's really going on here... the motives
that may be behind people's actions (lawyers included)... and Josh
doesn't, either.

You're making as blanket a statement as Josh did to create this thread.
IME Mac users could care less about a lawsuit over a scratched MP3
player... but I do know there are fanatics on both sides of this fence.

Any negative story is going to generate hate mail from the perspective
of someone.
> Do you really think these same people are going to ignore a plaintiff in a
> lawsuit against Apple?
My point is that we have no idea who these people actually are. How many
threats did he receive and from how many *different* sources? Josh's
title insinuates that all "Maccies" are fanatical. Without any
definition of what a "Maccie" is, the title has no meaning unless
"Maccie" means to be fanatical enough to write a threat to a person such
as the guy who claims to have been threatened here. Is that the
definition you guys have been using for many of the people in this NG? I
never thought so. Josh has called me a "Maccie", as has Mayor... I've
never written a letter like this in my life. Until a definition crops up
from Josh, I'm going to assume this isn't the definition that Josh is
using and he doesn't mean all "Maccies" are fanatics. With that said...
if Josh is trying to say that there does exist Mac users that are
fanatical enough to send such threats, I'll agree that it's very
likely... just as I would agree with anyone that would say it's likely
there are some Windows users fanatical enough to take a false identity
while making the threats. Personally, I don't see either of these things
as being particularly newsworthy and Josh's point about "Maccies" (if he
means *all* "Maccies") isn't made with this article (if I am correctly
understanding what the term "Maccie" means according to Josh).

By that standard 'nigger' isn't a slur since its used extensively by
blacks themselves.

Yup... and that's my point here. You said it's a slur, I'm saying it
isn't limited to being a slur. By writing this you're essentially
agreeing that it's only a slur if it's used by a person that doesn't
meet the criteria of the group it intends to slur. While it *can* be a
slur, it's obviously also something else and, in the case of hillbilly,
as I said previously, it has nothing to do with race (which was my main
point). Hillbilly is no more a race than is "kook"... which is also a
form of slur depending upon who is using the word and how they are using
it for. Nigger is like saying Wop, it's a derogatory term aimed at a
particular ethnicity (or mixture of them) otherwise known as a "race".

You're playing games. Hillbilly is a slur. Its used exclusively
against white people which does make it racial specific. Even when
used by one white to another it still carries negative overtones as
its normally being used to point out that the namecalled is a lowlife.
Why you're dancing and twisting so hard to avoid admitting the obvious
is a bit of a mystery. However considering that you once insisted that
9th century definitions were still valid its not unexpected.

Steve jumps back and forth on what he considers a valid definition -
whatever will fit his current semantic games. To defend his lies about his
unmarried "wife" he went to 9yj century definitions; to defend his lies
about a political debate he flip flopped between definitions and origins;
and recently he has twisted his panties in a knot so badly he tried to
defend perverts who claimed things that are very different are also
"identical". Steve loves his semantic games - which is weird because he has
not found anyone stupid enough to accept them. People are just not as
stupid as he wants them to be.
And, of course, in this particular case Steve is trying to alter what a
bigoted slur is - being that he is an open bigot.

You're playing games. It's not universally used against *all* white
people the way Nigger is used against *all* black people. Furthermore,
there is such a thing as a black hillbilly.

It's notable that I confused only you (and Snit) with my usage of the
word "wife" on the matter you are referring to.

Hillbilly isn't a racial slur... no matter how over-medicated you get.

What I wrote weren't 'points', Mayor... they were 'facts'... and the

Steve: you play stupid semantic games instead of using logic. The funny
thing is you are not much better with your semantic games than you are with
logic and reason. LOL! Remember, Steve, it was not long ago that you tried
to defend the perverted idea that things that are clearly not the same
(incest and sex) are, to you, "identical".

Thanks, Steve, for making your "over-medicated" status clear. Um, more
clear.
Now stop flaming me you ignorant bigot.
Mayor of R'lyeh
You're not really this stupid are you?
Here's another little bit of trivia for you. The Beverly Hillbillies,
Green Acres and Petticoat Junction weren't cancelled becasue of low
ratings. They were the most popular shows CBS had at the time. They
were cancelled because some of the network bigwigs found it
'distasteful' to have shows that portrayed simple country people as
more virtuous than 'sophisticated' city people who were always
scheming to steal something.
That's how acceptable bigotry was in those days.

Sometimes 'nigger' is used as a race neutral term for lowlife. That

You didn't confuse anyone, except maybe yourself. What you did was try
to explain away why you sometimes referred to your shackup buddy as a
'wife' and sometimes as a 'girlfriend' by trying to delcare the 9th
century definition of 'wife' (simply meaning woman) as still valid.

Look, just because you, Mayor, Pratt, zara and a few other racially
bigoted morons don't understand the difference between a racial slur and
a word like 'hillbilly' doesn't mean the rest of us don't. Ya know... I
was initially surprised at you joining in on this kind of crap... but
the more I see it from you, the more I realize it fits with the kind of
hypocrite you are. You did the same kind of politically correct feigning
with women's issues... then your true colors came out.

LOL! Your 'facts' cosisted mainly of wild specualtions such as 'maybe
the author is lying to make his case stronger' and 'all the letters

But then again from your past performance its not hard to imagine that
you consider those to be 'facts'.

Feel free to shows that hillbillies are a race any time you like, Snit.

Steve will keep missing simple points and will wait for his "target" to
explain the same thing to him over and over in different words - then Steve
will look for any trivial inconsistency he can fabricate from those
explanations. It is just what he does.
Look at his BS games over the word guilty. He was pathetic. Hey, on the
news a couple minutes ago I heard Ken Lay, who was convicted in court, say
he is actually innocent. That ought to blow Steve's mind: Steve thinks Ken
Lay must have meant he was not convicted... oh wait, that would be the case
if Steve were consistent. He is not.

Steve will defend racial slurs so he will not look so bad. He will fail.

Heck, Steve even claimed that no state or religion recognized the "married"
status he claims the state grants him. The inconsistency of his BS lies
never occurs to him.
