FWIW, it was never about certain words for me. It was about personal attacks & verbal assaults, with many of the accusations being baseless. It was about hiding behind political correctness when the real deal was personal agenda.

Maybe I missed something, but there was no military maneuver on UF's part that I am aware of. If anything b-i-a had been headed for an ugly confrontation for some time. She chose last night to give it both barrels.

I stand behind every word I posted last night.

Polvie, I have a deep respect for you. I know your post was heartfelt & serious. Please tell me, am I missing something here? I realize that certain incidents regarding questionable language were brought into the battle. I saw that as more of a side bar to the prevailing issue of personal attacks & verbal assaults & the merit, or lack thereof of said attacks.

FWIW, the porch should be a place where we are free to express ourselves, but it is a thread where the focus is on learning, sharing & stress free living. Disagreements are going to happen. Getting personal is not about stress free, particularly when the position taken is of questionable merit.

Please elaborate on you thoughts polvie. I'm really interested in your POV buddy.
