#1 Alas, it's probably not true. But if it is: hit the little b*tch one time for me, 'kay?

#2 Classic approach:
1) immediately muddy the water
2) countercharge (doesn't matter how outrageous)
3) deflect attention & distract from the issue
4) use simple repeatable sound-byte-sized BS memes (which require work to disprove; "It's all about the Oiiilll!")
5) invoke guilt whenever possible
6) divide & (hopefully) conquer

Very effective against PC-pussies.

The UK police authorities, the US military (formally authorizing proven asshats like CAIR & ISM sponsored Wahhabi-trained Mooslim Chaplains), the World "media" - this disease is rampant and very effective against the scattered beseiged clear-thinking non-PC remnants... who gather in self-defense of their sanity in the blogosphere at refuges like RantBurg. (Thx, again, Fred!)

You probably work with people who have learned this technique: stir up enough dust (controversy & distraction) so that nobody notices that they don't do dick. Look around you - you'll see them if the company is big enough to hide lamers. PC-ism has infiltrated everywhere and, of course, to point it out is "proof" of your intolerance. What a gig!

This is how the trolls, here and elsewhere, operate, as well...

#4 âwhere is your God now?â,

-I know that's from some movie. That's a definite villian line. Just can't remember which movie. They should of said "and your little dog to" in a high-pitched squeaky voice while pummeling him.

#5 When Jesus was dying, they stood at the foot of the cross and said, "Where is your God, now?" And Jesus himself asked, "My God, why have you forsaken me?"

#6 I knew I'd heard it in a movie too, Jarhead. And it was one of the best villians, ever:

The 1956 swords-and-sandals epic The Ten Commandments has long since turned into a pillar of kitsch, but certain moments in the movie remain improbably vivid. One is the sneering query put by the slave master Edward G. Robinson to the humbled Israelite leader Charlton Heston: "Where is your God now, Moses?"

#7 Steve, thanx. As a semi-good practicing Catholic I've should've known that one.

#8 Anyone else remember the al'Qaeda training manual? One of the instructions was to claim you had been abused by the police if you're arrested.

#9 RC - Stand it on its head: Any suspect who attempts this should get an intense application of The Rubber Glove and be thoroughly investigated for terrorism links. If he's a mooslim, double everything. If they're gonna play victim and accuse you of it, you might as well get your goddamned money's worth. Just my $0.02.

#10 RC, where can I get a copy of said manual? Those Al-Q f*cks owe me copyright royalties. They took a page outta the jarhead playbook when I was a 15 yr old juvenile delinquent and well known by the local constabulary.

#12 Perhaps they are just looking for that guy Mohommed Al-Yourgod?

#13 Convicted IRA member Paul Hill ("In The Name of the Father") got his conviction for killing a British soldier overturned, saying his confession was coerced.

He later married a Kennedy and now knocks back pints with Uncle Teddy.

Maybe this shithead will someday marry a Kennedy, too, or just sleep with Andrew Cuomo's wife! Allah Akbar!
