thank you Azur
yes, things like this have an effect on me.
maybe I should restrain my emotions.
but some things bring out anger and sadness -- this was one of them.

Hi
I am not sure what you mean by the "select few" but I can understand people backing off from these rows. It has that affect on me often. Life is such that sometimes we don't have the energy to engage here. However, having said that, I agree that if you see something posted that you believe is wrong or harmful that you should feel free to comment. It is a public forum and if we post we should be prepared for readers who engage with our words and for commenters who agree and disagree. I don't believe your comments were evil so much as hotheaded. I think that I felt much as you do about the points made in that particular post but responded in a different way to you. If we reply in a completely emotional way the focus then falls on the emotion and not the meaning of our words.

I tell you what I think....fuck it. Everyone has a right to say what they
want. And, if you put yourself in an area where there will be a huge difference in opinion ... then you should go into it with a spine.

here is where i sort of got nasty and did attack
Go to SO YOU WANT TO PLAY NICE? DO THEY KNOW THE GAME? look at the post -- my god -- it engates in the greatest paranoia and xenophobia i have ever seen -- it is a post and a statement that is very, very damaging and if you read it, you have to come to the conclusion that these thoughts just come out of thin air -- or from some paranoid rumor mill -- and basically these statements have no real substance or evidenc to bak them up -- if anything is dangerous, this is.
BY GOD, I WILL NOT BACK DOWN FROM MY STATEMENTS HERE!!!!!

Xeno-x - sometimes at the end of the day it doesn't mean a pinched pig
in purple pee who's right and who's wrong.
Sometimes there are other considerations that superscede the miniscule impact of a few words written in a blog.

Of course you're evil.
You're a hippy. Hippies = bell bottoms. Bell bottoms = evil.
As always, mathematics just cannot be denied.
