<< How nice that most people are able to resist the temptation to suggest that the lives of people with whom they disagree should be restricted (and their career taken away). >> Restriction is perfectly reasonable. I would not want a sexual predator, a radical Muslim, a member of the KKK, or you teaching my kids.

What makes this country great is that I can express my opinion, and you can express your opinion. Of course, you don't want me expressing my opinion certain places, which is a difference between us. But part of our freedom is that you have the right to live in a gated community if you choose to, which you obviously do. Nowhere did I say you should be prohibited from teaching. That is a false accusation on your part. What I did say was that I pitied your students. I did. I do. Your tirade gives another indication why.

How nice that most people are able to resist the temptation to suggest that the lives of people with whom they disagree should be restricted (and their career taken away) . That you and Mr. Bill do not understand this, makes me pity you. How nice that you think avowed racists, avowed pornographers, and the like should be freely allowed to teach your children, since you don't think their careers should be taken away because of any disagreement with their lives.

And you wonder why I want a gated community? Because I don't attack people professionally, and in the lowest scummiest ways possible, nor do I go after their families. That's why. Thank goodness for the gates. Hmmm interesting... The above makes me wonder the reason why you shut the gate on my face... Started By: X the Unknown Date: Aug 31, 2001 12:24 PM I have to thank Rambi, woman warrior and underwear model for her inspiration. I hearby declare this thread the KISSY KISSY thread, and have you read any good books lately? (or have you seen any good movies, plays, read any good magazine articles, etc) This is of course a moderated thread. "What does that mean?" you may be asking. It means if I don't like what you have to say you cannot post here. There are many petty fiefdoms on SI. If you don't fit into this one you will fit into another. Life is like that. Some people fit together, other people don't. So I must ask you. Just curious. Why did you shut the gate ? Because of (1) the reason on the header... or (2) because any of the reasons stated on the very first paragraph, (yours), of this post ? Why ? I need to clear the reason for my own knowledge. Was it (1) only, or (2). For your convenience, here are all the posts by me in your thread, (I tried to place them in chronological order starting from the top.) In addition, I am also posting the 2 PM's I sent to thames in response to his post, when I could not respond publicly anymore. He said he would post them at my request. Although he said... "verbatim, he 'edited out' some important parts when he did. Lastly, I am posting this addressed to you, and also addressed to a third party just in case you have me on ignore. ___________ First, the last response to you, which it was unanswered, (after you banned me): Message 16334857 Responding to: Message 16334638 Now... point out to me the post that caused you to shut the gate. (these posts, prior to your banning me).
