An hour of my life that I will never get back.

That's what it seems like.
Earlier today, after watching the video about Ignatieff launching a scathing attack against Harper, I read some of the comments.

BIG MISTAKE.

I couldn't believe the crap I was reading from one particular commenter, named Tilbily.

I quote,
"Anybody can read the long list of atheist leaders who murdered millions. And the number is still rising.

And it takes a lefty to force a $300 mill election during an economic downturn."

So I, regretably, responded.
"And yet, the list of atheist leaders is still not as long as the list of religious leaders who have used the excuse of righteousness through god to murder millions.
The slaughter of innocents in the name of god still continues today.
Unfortunately we, as a society are unwilling to stop this genocide.
Why is that I wonder.
What ever the reason, making a bold statement that atheist leaders have, and continue to, murdered millions is highly prejudicial and ignorant.

Tilbily's response,
"You have some work to do. Those are political leaders who've done evil in the NAME of religon. They were phony, with the exception of 911.
Communists don't respect life, they USE it for their purpose and dispose.

So Iggy doesn't like Ukrainians, eh???

Of course, this is all to get the attention off Ignatieff. And Canadians made it clear they are content and DON'T want a $300 mill election and the same gov setup."

He wasn't finished yet,
"Atheists have and continue to murder millions: Stalin, N.Korea, China, Cuba.....

So Justin Trudeau doesn't like Iggy either?
That was/is such a divided party.
Canadians are tired of their infighting and wrangling for power with each other. "

I responded again, in two parts,
"Lets go in reverse order.
1. Communists don't respect life.
How do you know, for sure, that communists don't respect life?
Are you a communist?
Have you conducted a pole of all communists?
Your statement is to generalized and has no support. Look up, dicto simpliciter.

2. Somehow 9/11 gets a pass, I guess it was real.
In what way was it real?
Did the hijackers really believe they where doing gods work?
Or did they just simply fly the planes into the buildings?
Seen next post for more."
"3.Political leaders, who use their religious beliefs as an excuse to commit mass murder are not really a problem because they are "phony".
Does this include such political leaders as Slobodan Milošević , Omar Hassan Ahmad al-Bashir and Ariel Sharon, look up the Sabra and Shatila massacre?
4. The "hate" commercial you got the Trudeau quote from is just a quote mining hatchet job.
5. The liberal party allows it's members to speak for themselves, unlike the Harper conservatives.
Get back to work."

As I expected he responded,
"SO you don't deny Iggy is also a communist and you don't answer the question. Neither will I answer yours.

I wonder why he abandoned his wife and kids and only kept in contact with the kids by rare phone calls??

I get a kick out of Justin Trudeau basically calling him a untrustworthy :)"

After this "wonderful" response I knew I wasn't dealing with a person grounded in reality.

I made another attempt to illicit an intelligent response, knowing full well that I couldn't,
"When did you ask me if Iggy was a communist?

Iggy is a Liberal, not a communist.

Your statement, Neither will I answer yours, seems rather childish.

I can see that this discussion will go no where.

Can you provide proof that Iggy abandoned his wife and kids?
Perhaps a link to a web site or something."

This guy is not of this world. As is true to form with this type of discourse he resorts to a personal attack,
"LOL! A marxist with nothing to do and ignoorant to boot.

China, Cuba, N.Korea, Stalin, oh heck even Putin if you look at him the wrong way.

And Iggy sure got himself a protest from Ukrainian Canadians. They know what he's about.

And the Trudeau family aren't strangers to communism. I imagine a lie here/there is all part of business for these for them.

300 Mill to be spent for nothing!
Just another elitist who won't all home."

He wasn't finished,
"Ignatieff said taxes need to increase, his polls plummet.
Now he says "no tax increase". Must be hanging around MaGuinty too much. Both liars."

Still not done,
"The guy will say anything.
 Obviously Trudeau was actually RIGHT. no left, i mean right ;)"

I paused for a moment as I tried to find a way to be polite about what I thought of his "level of mentality."

This was my final comment before I left to visit my brother,
"It is unfortunate that you have such a jaundiced view of the world.

If I had to guess your personality, I would have to say the following:
1. Conservative.
2. Christian.
3. Average education.
4. Opinionated.
5. Close minded.
6. Someone who is easily convinced of conspiracies.
7. Some one who is afraid to look for the truth.

I'm sure your a very nice person but, you don't seem to be able to carry on an intelligent conversation.

I am now sure that I definitely have wasted my time.

Goodbye."

I've checked a few times since I returned home but, he hasn't responded to my last comment.
Maybe I scared him away.

After this one sided discourse I thought to myself that I had in effect wasted my time.

I also checked out this guy's profile on YouTube.

He really is a fuck-nut wackjob.

Sorry there just is no other way to put it.

As I reread the comment about my being an ignorant Marxist elitist, I can't help but wonder what he meant by "who won't all home."

I may have to ask him.
