Should chicago cab drivers be banned from carrying firearms? Or does it not get hot enough in Chicago?

Thanks,

Frank

You like asking questions don't you Frank? I'll answer if you give me some answers first.

Here's what I want to know;

You asked two questions with no relationship whatsoever to what I wrote and what you quoted in it's lengthy entirety. Why?

You've asked these questions very same questions before. Why ask them again here when they are completely off topic? You cry about "hijacks" when I or anyone you may disagree with (about anything at any time) goes "off topic"- you carry on about violating the CoC for such transgressions almost daily. What make you exempt from your own "rules"?

You have not only asked these questions before, you have put what I said that inspired these very questions into your signature verbatim. Why the great interest in what I think? Besides, you have written for everyone to see on numerous occasions "What Delija means" - "What Delija thinks", etc. so many times, why bother asking me anything when you already know what I think and what I mean?

Thanks in advance. I look forward with enormous anticipation to your responses. (I'm not actually very hopeful of getting them however - please; surprise me. Surprise us all. Give an answer for once!

Nice dodge.

If you are going to refuse to answer those simple questions, then just say so. I guess your own quotes will have to speak for themselves.

You can accuse D of a "nice dodge" when you can explain with some degree of logic and clarity (this means you'll have to think hard so put on your thinking cap Frankie) why you brought up something that clearly was irrelevant.

I'm sure Frank will appreciate receiving permission from the self appointed .....

Did Obama promise you this level of power ??

Just as irrelevant as implying that someone is a racist because they used the term "black accent", pointing out that age 88 is too old to give birth, and mentioning that Whitey Ford died from lyme disease

Delija professes to have vast knowledge about Chicago and New York, which is clearly evident in the post I quoted, so I am curious if his opinions regarding New York also apply to the Windy City.

Continue with only pointing out "irrelevant" comments when they come from those with who you disagree and ignore the ones from who you are inclined to agree with, if you wish.

???????????????????

Isn't this YOUR rule? YOUR interpretation of what you always tell us is a violation? Why are you "above the law"? (Because you get to make up the "law"?).

Yeah, I mentioned stuff like how difficult it would be for my mom to give birth at 88. Clearly very serious stuff. Same with needing a friend to call "Whitey", blah, blah, blah......

Maybe the time has come (probably did long ago) to at least make an attempt to give up on bothering to read my posts. I'll never be serious enough for you or care enough to even try to be.

And likewise, you seem highly incapable of having a sense of humor about anything. Or capable of letting anything go. Of letting the past stay in the past.....

I apologized to the guy I responded to for implying he was "racist". He accepted the apology. What makes you think he needs you to be his advocate? Now or ever?

What additional actions on my behalf would it take; what more is there for me to say or do to satisfy you that I regretted making a post in poor taste? (a failed attempt at humor when I was in enormous pain from a gout attack, which I also had already explained???).

"Dodge"?

I said I'd answer whatever you wanted to ask. On the other hand, you don't even make the smallest hint at the possibility of providing any answers. Same as always.

No surprise. Nothing new.

.....What are you afraid of? You already have the questions, so it's not like you'll make a commitment to provide answers and then get "mugged" with any surprises.


While we are "off topic", here's a friendly suggestion;

And even if you don't like my advice here, you can at least benefit from it by using it as more fodder with which to cry "hijack!" and "violation of CoC" and "personal attack!" (although I cannot possibly imagine how you can consider this a "personal attack", but nothing has ever stopped you before....when I once suggested that you go into politics because of your intelligence and your passion, even THAT was somehow perceived by you to be a "personal attack").

If you have never seen the original version of "The Shining" with Jack Nicholson - check it out....... I know it may be hard for you to find the time...I realize your plate is quite full with all your "research" and your keeping notes for your "memoirs". And of course your paying job along with your volunteer (community service) work here keeping order and law. But sometimes you can be entertained and informed at the same time. Anyway, no real downside (other than the movie is a bit longer than average).

Just for the record......I don't recall "professing" any such thing. I grew up in NY and lived in Chicago for about two years total. "Vast knowledge"? LOL...I have no such thing of EITHER place. Average at best in NY and nothing close to "vast knowledge", nothing even close to "average" knowledge about Chicago.

That aside.....how does anything I may have said, implied, whatever about NY and Chicago have any relevance to armed taxi drivers in either place?

If you wished to bring up the comment I made about that way back when, it isn't as if you couldn't have just resurrected that thread. Not like you have not brought dead threads to life before.

You can spin this every way you wish (as you did with blaming ME for making Etta feel "guilty" about her "sins"....LOL - But no matter what you try, there's just no connection of relevance between "guns in the hands of taxi drivers in NYC" and my mother trying to conceive a child at the age of 88.(89 on Labor Day - how fitting!...."Labor Day" ..get it? Hahahahaha....Oh, sorry, off topic attempt at humor. What's the June 18, 2008 chalkboard of violations of the "CoC" have in store for me on that? "Personal attack" as usual? "Hijack" as always? Reason to lock thread?

Powder your wig, press your robes and polish up your gavel - I'm in the mood to exercise my right to demand SWIFT "justice" today!!!!! LOL

So you are still refusing to answer my questions? It would be much easier and would require less effort on your part if you simply answered yes or no, instead of bringing up even more irrelevant things in an attempt to distract from your opinion that we should NOT have armed populaces in certain areas of the country (and taxicabs).

Here they are again...
