Flame and flame bait technically require aiming at a specific person.

This is trolling to some extent but EA, formerly known as AP, has set views on these subjects.

Essentially this merely offends you, but it's not aimed at you nor is it aimed purely at making people angry - EA is merely our resident revolutionary.

Viva moderacione!

That wasn't really a troll, I was actually pointing to the contradictory logic on conservatives in supporting the troops in sending them into death traps.

In a thread about tasteless bumper stickers, I don't see how that would count as baiting or trolling.

Even in Texas, I'd probably just chuckle if I saw that on a bumper sticker. And wonder when the driver was going to get arrested or shot.
