I understand that comment in regards to nnnnnnnnn, I have read enough of his posts to realize that he cannot acknowledge even a simple error, you may remember the affair with nnnnnnnnn. <g>

In any battle the best help is the help you find on the day you are fighting. I don't share your view of nnnnnnnnnn regardless of his politics. You may choose to find any words you wish, of nnnnnnn's, to influence my decision, this is the very basis of the argumentative function, I will try and explain a little further. The descriptive function is probably best the tool to explore the relationship between our community and our digital selves. nnnnnnnnn is probably aware that I have literally placed him "on point", he is definitely dead before me if Vang is the first shooter. <g>
Under cyber pressure he has chosen to reveal, to me anyways, a critical fact, he is a friend of nnnnnnnnn's. He has done this by posting to the nnnnnnnnn thread, He has in fact deserted his political camp to stand beside the tribesman, I am shocked and awed, a true soldier. I know nnnnnnnnn well enough to know he isn't coming in to a fight like this, and I think nnnnnnnnn has taken a position of shelter, the new mind is strong in nnnnnnn.
In contrast, the low flyer retreated to a first post on the nnnnnn Thread, we go where we feel safe when we are threatened.
I didn't ask for your opinion of nnnnnnnn, I didn't realize that you were banned from nnnnnnnnn thread. If you can't go over there, nominate her here on the Thread Morons <g>. Not exactly an non-controversial route I know but, if you truly like her then you realize she is out to lunch on this one and you can let her know how you feel and the amicable resolution will be a contrast and provide a nice sympathetic counterpoint to the sound of iron hitting iron.

There is a reason I am speaking to you like an engineer, the only blade that is allowed to hit the King is the voice of the poet, mayhaps you have forgotten this. You have been savaged here quite a few times and your armour is much better today, now you stand impressively armoured, unwilling to fight. Take sides. You can only be killed.
