So, we make excuses for ignoring certain vile & repulsive acts, regardless of the long history of their highly inappropriate behavior................. And we also make excuses for certain individuals who use cruel & insensitive comments to make a point...........

Seems we have excuses for a lot of inappropriate behavior for certain types of individuals.

Meanwhile, bin_Laden_in_Austin, who just happens to have extreme liberal leanings, is allowed to belittle, berate & maliciously attack a couple of conservative folks with vicious lies & manipulative conjecture without so much as a minor retort from you or polive.

That complete silence toward your liberal trouble maker, & now with the insensitive comments toward JW, who just happens to be a conservative individual, coupled with the ongoing litany of excuses justifying it all, is speaking volumes.

BTW, anyone who has followed RR's posts surely knows that it is highly unlikely that he is a malicious & insensitive union buster. His post in question hardly gives sufficient information to support such inappropriate conjecture.

Unions are an important & integral tool to insure that hard working individuals are paid fair wages & given decent working conditions. However, there still exists a significant portion of unions & union people who wish to extract, for their personal gain, ridiculous wages & working conditions, even at the risk of ruining the company that employs them.

"the desire to squeeze or financially hurt coal miners "

So, you read RR's post & still felt sorry for those poor union folks..............

Considering RR's comments on the subject (which included physical threats to RR & his family, plus damage to personal property, etc. by union folk), perhaps he was brought in to bring a stubborn (& possibly financially distressed) company & a greedy union to an amicable agreement, even if it meant that the union had to cave on some significant, but irresponsible demands.

Yep, those union folks sure needed your empathy & it shows how highly you think of RR to have empathy for folks you don't know with little regard for someone you should know.

And bia was right to maliciously attack RR by means of dubious conjecture, because he was trying to "mitigate" the situation, which included telling "CEO's and the Board of Directors things that management doesn't want to tell them themselves", while facing threats of violence, etc., from those poor pitiful union folk.

And bia's malicious, albeit false attribution that I believe that all Arab Americans should be shot was unworthy of any retort from you or polive.

And polvie was right to use cruel & insensitive remarks to make a point when JW wished death upon a leader who harbors & supports terrorists who kill & maim innocent civilians.

And you were right to make excuses for all of these righteous actions.

OOF indeed!
