I am constantly amused when people rationalize their abusive behavior

let me see if I understand...
a) if you start a thread, you can insult anyone you want
b) if you have four years of seniority, you can insult anyone you want
c) all abusive deeds are the responsibility of others
d) label whoever resists your abuse as the real villain
e) if privileges are halted by the authorities, then sue the authorities

just read a bunch of posts over here
reminds me of some fraternity whose main purpose is destructive pranks
their leader finds himself facing consequences, yet they continue to plot retribution

on most days, a rich discussion flows on solid valuable information
you guys really need to sharpen your focus onto what is important

I sense a much deeper issue at work, and it aint flattering
investors over here are longterm investors who harbor disdain for shortermers
they look with condescension upon option trading and margin-based shorterm investing
shortermer methods are disrespected at every level, including personally
such incompatibility has bred a steady stream of insults

could it be that many of you lack deeper intellectual insights to profit shorterm?
could it be that many of you lack strong emotional constitution to endure the stress?
could it be that the primary basis for your attacks and insults is jealousy?
whose accounts over here appreciate at a greater rate than the QCOM share price?

I respect longterm investing, but it is not within my investing objective
I do not insult those who choose such a safer, less profitable route

true, we shortermers at times are responsible for producing accentuated swings and volatility
some view such a role as parasitic in nature
I view it as an intellectual and emotional challenge of high order, with commensurate reward

my lifestyle can tolerate peaceful coexistence; can yours?

UNPROVOKED AND UNWARRANTED GRENADE LOBS DURING TIMES OF STRESS ARE DOWNRIGHT HOSTILE

Molloy, you are responsible for these on several occasions
they result in counter-attacks by me, each and every time, without exception
they result in a breakdown in social order on the Buy Range thread
why do you bother to post over on the "Shortermer Thread" anyway?
any claim of innocent motives lacks plausible deniability altogether

sincerely
