Joan, I always enjoyed reading your posts, despite the length and obvious left slant. (Probably obvious to everyone but you!) And I appreciate the effort you make to document your points.
However, I take serious issue with this conclusion of yours: "And you DID try to get Dan thrown off the thread, didn't you?"
No, everyone here gave Dan every opportunity to stay. For nine months, Dan terrorized this thread with cutting juvenile verbiage, that if delivered by me or any other here you disagree with politically, would have been reported to SI immediately.
Dan crossed the line in his final week by harassing me in every post I made. Dan asked, dared, pleaded, begged me to report him. Finally, I acquiesced. And now he's gone, not because I reported him, but because of his own own posts and his own actions surrounding his suspension.
Honestly, I didn't want Dan thrown off the thread, if he had something to contribute. But he exhausted that opportunity.
So, no, you are wrong when you say that. |
