Leaked video showing US helicopter shooting journalists and civilians

I always assumed it meant they agreed with the statement that was quoted but felt it was obvious enough that it didn't need any more commentary.

That's what it usually means, but here I almost always see it only when the original post has screwed up formatting.  It's also usually grumbler who does it.

You may not have noticed but Grumbler is a jerk.

You may not have noticed but Grumbler is a jerk.

He kept tripping Jesus while he was carrying that big ass cross.

He kept tripping Jesus while he was carrying that big ass cross.

And when Socrates was given the Hemlock he kept shouting "Chug!  Chug!  Chug!"

I've had my suspicions for a while.

Hopefully someone will put a bullet in your brain first.

I hope you get athletes foot in your mouth.

What the deal with people quoting mis-formatted replies without writing anything?  Is that some kind of an inside joke or something?

I've always assumed it was mocking people who fucked up the formatting.

You assume wisely.  People who fuck up the formatting don't appear to have added anything, since their words appear inside the quotes, and then there is some kind of a group reflex to duplicate that appearance.

I love the pout!  It fits you to a T.

Your ability to read into something that isn't there is supreme, as always.  I was merely making making my observation, without imposing a value judgment on the action of replying with no text.

Again, the pouting. It is classic.

As you know quite well, not only is not me that "usually" makes the formatting error that leads to the seemingly blank post, it is almost never me who does it.  I did it the once, in fact, when the board was new (but I wouldn't expect you to know the precise number).  Your "observation" is, as many of your statements in this thread, untrue.  Nothing in that or my earlier statements that requires reading anything that isn't there.

DGuller, stop being such a fucking pouter.

[dps]

I do find it curious how what was at worst clumsy paraphrasing with no intention to mislead gets jumped on, but comments like dps's get a free pass.  His description of the events, that the van was picking up the bodies and the weapons, was wrong in very important ways, that could very well change the conclusion about the appropriateness of engaging it.

You didn't read dps's comments very clearly.  He says that "they fired on the van to keep the people in it from taking away the bodies and weapons" which is what the pilots themselves said. 

Yes, that's exactly where I got that bit--it was what the pilots said.  Reading DGuller's posts, I have to wonder if he watched the video with the audio off.

[DGuller]

I know that's what the pilots said when they wanted to get authorization to shoot.  However, I didn't just listen to the pilots when I was watching the video, I was also trying to see what they were actually shooting at.

I recall you doing that way more than once.

Ok, I decided to invest 10 minutes, just to check my sanity and memory.  Well, looking through grumbler's posts to prove such a pointless point may not speak well of my sanity, it does speak well for my memory.

I stopped after getting the third one, with the third one being from about 7 weeks ago.  I'm sure I could rack up more if I went further, but this is enough to disprove your assertion.  Obviously an honorable poster like you would be quick to offer an apology for wrongfully calling me a liar.
