No O the point is that gossip was not approved by everyone here. Now why don't you tell me who commented on the black boy stuff- and said "That's not appropriate- whether you say it, or whether Carter says it." So the defense is, we chide our own for irresponsible posts. That's a pretty good defense, I think.

That was so completely irrational, I don't even know what to say. I saw no defense whatever of that gossip here. QUite the opposite. I pointed out to you that it was posted, denounced, and then left behind-- until you arrived, all huffy. In fact, in an even earlier post, I mentioned not talking about the far out left stuff, and I was actually referring to that very story which I'd read somewhere, but didn't even want to mention. Someone else then arrived to challenge the Carter words. No one defended him either, but readily agreed it was indefensible. You are really scrambling, O. And I have no idea why. But I won't waste any more time on it. Go back to the threads that like this stuff.
