Thanks Bob.


And now we return to regularly scheduled programming!

Hi Bob,
Just one last question if you don't mind. Would it be in violation of your TOUs if I asked someone if his mother wears Army Boots?

If it is in violation then I will not ask the question. I certainly wouldn't want to lose my posting privileges over someone's mother's fashion preferences (or lack of).

Bob - I have no problem with your request. I'd suggest that the level of diatribe was initiated and reached the gutter by the other poster, but I realize you have too many other things to do than to spend time sorting out who "started it."

By the way, - shortly before your ascendancy, SI Jeff discovered that there was an anti-Semitic poster or posters who had hijacked several names. He apparently booted them. Yet this particular one brags that there are still "hundreds" of accounts that apparently have been hijacked by this poster or posters.

If you will check his posts, I believe you will see a striking similarity in a)topic, b)tone c)grammar or lack thereof. with the other person to whom you addressed your post.

In fact, if you read his posts and compare them, you will see that many, if not most, are verbatim in their attacks.

Incidentally, JIM (the booted aliass) also made the same allegations about knowing IP addresses and attempted to threaten others whom he had personally attacked.

I would respectfully ask you to review this matter.

I purposely did not post to the other individual mentioned in your post and purposely have not used his name.

He has chosen to continue the attack, first calling Albert a drunk and then attacking me with unfounded claims, continuing what led to your post.

Please advise.

I've refrained from further "discussion" with the Self-Knighted one as you requested. However, it seems like he is off the prozac you prescribed.

Would you kindly review this evening's posts from SirVinny and advise whether they are violations of TOU for SI. They certainly seem to ignore your requests made in the post to which I am replying.

Thank you in advance.

re: Bush has an agenda and Arafat also has an agenda. Similarly, supporters of each have their own agendas.
d'you have agenda too? anyway, your "life's experience" lead you to a conclusion that there are reasons for people's actions - next you might even discover cause and effect relationship - did your mommy dropped you on your head more than once and from the 5th floor, accidentally, of course.....
re: life's experiences
like?

re: When engaging in a discussion I want to know if the person presenting the argument has an agenda which might skew his opinion. Does it make me anti-semitic, I don't think so.
leave thinking to those who are capable of it and yes it does make you anti-semitic

re: Am I right in doing so? Probably not. But the way it is wrong to denigrate Jews
probably? you are not sure here

re: idiots are not unique to one culture.
are you implying that you are not alone?

re: To pompously denigrate one group while closing a blind eye to your own is hypocritical.
you mean to say that after attacking Jews you will denigrate Italians, germans and arabs?

re: Unfortunately, I join them and retaliate.
retaliate? idiot, you are a comic relief here

It's funny, he was posting last night almost as a normal bigot if one could call a bigot normal. I think the meds wore off.

Hi Vinny,
nice to hear from you. How does it feel to be the laughing stock of SI.

Here's another good one, Bob. It appears attacking Catholics with innuendos is fair. Whereas, disapproving of the war makes one a Nazi, bigot and an anti-semite according to this individual. Should one respond by attacking Jews with similar subtle innuendos? You tell me, Bob.

Actually, he seems to do better when you advise him to revisit his childhood. Something about the confessional and the priest that warmed the innermoist cockles of his heart.
