debate ?
or
I missed that.

I would never hurt your Aunty Eunice MrB., unless she pointed a gun at me and pulled the trigger, then I would kill her.

This type of posting activity wouldn't be allowed on Feelings, I would have been banned after the second moron and that ain't flim flam. SI members shouldn't form mobs for the purpose of serving up persecution. Picture the situation a little differently, Auntie Eunice has killed six tribesmen and she says it was self defense. What would you think of a mob to hang her out before the forensics report had arrived ? What do you think of people who tell you that refusing to grieve for the poor tribesmen your Aunty killed is an indefensible position ? If you think this is about defending a friend, I won't disabuse you, perhaps that is how it will read to you tomorrow as well, but I don't think so. I can tell you that following each blow closely in a fight like this is a very bad way to get a grasp of the outcome. Look over the field tomorrow and tell me what you think. <s> I know you live here MrB and I know you want the best things for our community, but cessation of hostilities may take awhile <g> Apparently I am running amok and striking at everything, if you look closer you can see a pattern in the blows.

This whole battle has centered on conduct. It has some very clear parts if you start from a cold read and follow the links. The mob mentality degrades us all, nice people don't join cyber mobs. I will not spend a lot of time dealing with the niceties of it all. Perhaps wobbles thinks that everything is going back to normal over at the Islands but I have a Feeling that this may not be true.
