Good.

Let's not snipe at our volunteer admins who keep this site running for our benefit. These guys keep all the penis starch spammers and worse at bay behind the scenes and get little credit. First and foremost they are longtime members here who deserve our thanks.

Got a problem with moderation? Send a PM to D-Ray or Piece it Pete.

Things could be worse. You could have Tentoze or me as a mod...

Yup, just trying to scare people.

You might as well say that if a guy went down the street shouting words into a super PA, physically harming people with 180 decibels at short range, he can't be arrested because that would violate his right of free speech.

You are harming a valuable principle by claiming there are no limits to it. There are limits to everything.

Are you sure you can't conceive of a rule against this that doesn't 'obligate' you to ban lots of other people? If not, 'rule of law' would seem to have severe drawbacks. Maybe it's not the great recipe for justice folks say it is.

Because I am asking for nothing less than justice. I think I am harmed by the conduct I have been objecting to, and I think it unfair, unjust, that I be required to put up with it.
You don't "have to put up with it. You can sign out. I don't want you to leave, I think the site would be less if you did leave, but Don made a good case for things to remain as they are.

As far as I know 427's posts have not physically harmed anyone.

Skip over his posts if they bother you that much! How hard is that?

The first time somebody posts a challenge that in some vague way generates an emotional reaction in this emotional trainwreck...it starts all over again. That is how it works. I suppose every member is just supposed to sit around silently with their thumb in their mouth when accusations of pedophilia are tossed around like cowchips at a county fair.

That the management is not commenting...therein lies the problem.
Let me know where you have see that.

What I would like to see at this site is less hypocrisy.

I came here to gather information, spread information. The problem is the lack of respect of my opinion or anyones opinion that doesn't follow liberal agendas.So look to the ones that are guarding and perceived protection of the site from a variety of opinions as the problem.

I don't feel the need to go to every thread on this board and piss in all four corners as does Bob and BeamOn. Hay if you don't like what I post don't participate let the thread die in your mind. If you have an argument for the topic state it and shove the personal attack up your ass. As far as threads posted by others and I leave a comment if you don't like it tough. I didn't come here for your indoctrination of liberal bias. I can read and if it a bunch of BS like this thread is I tend to just pass it by. I just scrolled past most of these comments because I'm tiered of the little bitch gossip you all partake in. Im tired of me me me as well so get over the infatuation will you.

Gees what a bunch of little brats, a fucking bunch of old men that can't fucking act civil.

I'll say it one more time I am only doing to others what they do to me. If you don't like it then stop your behavior. There are many members on this site that I do not agree with ideology wise and we get along with respect. There is a clear reason for that.

No, you escalate it - indeed, you revel in it. If you were as mature and reasonable as you puff yourself up to be, you would not engage in such behavior. In other words, it takes a brat to go tit for tat.
