Hatred in two parts

The impersonal and contrived

Thanks for this chuckle
<<(The same goes for James and his allegedly anti-black message.)>>

We have covered so many topics on SI through the years that as a community we have learned much about what makes us tick. Discussions have ranged freely about the set of rules we live under, here on SI. Chuzzlewit is certainly right about Emile being puntable. SI Admin(Bob) and Jill have demonstrated this punting ability to me, numerous times.
The slope is really not slippery at all. The slope is a fraction expressed as the number of EV's divided by the rest of the community, no easy walk but a continual uphill grade.
We are not peaceable, but by choice. Offense is always as near as the next post, what we have to do is measure the weight of the offender against the cause we wish to defend. Penni is right, Emile should be ignored.

We have to choose our enemies wisely
Lest we are defined by hate...

One of the best things about SI is that we, as a community, are defined by tolerance. Tolerance for the real, the unfeigned. We have an inexhaustible appetite for truth and beauty.
We have been known to watch the occasional sit-com.
We read a lot.
Some of us write.

Our Beloved SI

It is ours, we are it
