"I checked back to find your post that got you banned, and unfortunately it's been deleted. I haven't dwelled on this much (evidently you have), but I seem to remember you accusing Milo of either lying about his nephew dying or lying about his grief. I'd consider that a personal attack, wouldn't you? Can you dig up the original post? "(EDIT) I don't think I'm lying, at least not on purpose. If I'm wrong, I'm happy to admit it." No, I can't dig up that post. It was deleted by SI, even though it contained nothing whatsoever in violation of the TOU. I basically said that Milo was playing the symptathy card and that even more terrible things happen to people without them saying "Cut me some slack." In other words, 'Get over it." I said nothing about Milo lying about his nephew. I assume it was true, but I maintain that bringing in such things--even as he was posting attacks on others during this period, as both Elmer and Paul were able to document!--is inappropriate. And I think it was reprehensible for SI Jeff to delete my post simply because _you_ (who seem not to even remember what it was you were flipping out about!) flipped out and started slinging words which violated the TOU. My post contained no violations of the TOU and were in fact milder than other posts in the Intel thread from both Elmer and Paul. Yet people like you, who don't even remember what you flipped out about, decided that I had to be kicked off your mind control thread. Even as those who yell obscenities on the thread and refer to "Jew-controled media" are given a pass. Amazing, but typical. --Tim May
