Justa,

Why are we engaging this silly topic. Although I find this bickering back and forth a waste of time and effort, I cannot support anyone trying to regulate or limit viewpoints on any topic. I find the information on these threads informative and collectively a wide selection of opinions are important to any subject. If you find Rillinois difficult to deal with or disagree on the topic, simply ignore those posts. I enjoy viewpoints that are opposite of mine despite how illogical or unfounded I may believe they are, we learn from differing opinions. We also do not have a right to vote someone off of these pages. What a boring place this would be if it became a mutual admiration society. RIllinois has the right to stay and continue posting on any thread. I find this vote much more repulsive than RIllinois.

Regards

Refusing to participate might speak volumes too.

I hate having the bum get in my face with his silly sign of "homeless, I'll work for food" when there are "help wanted" signs all up and down the street and my first job was bussing tables later to wash cars then dishes. Then again, we live in a country that allows free speech which means I must allow the bum his sign to collect donations for his next drink or injection as well as allow the "anti choice" people to harass those seeking advice at a medical clinic or even allow the "hitler youth" their signs in the city parade.

"Free Speech" is not a popularity contest.

Also, because I respect you does not mean I have to agree with everything you believe in. I do not need someone to protect me from a few of Brinker's less than stellar stock picks just as I do not need some well intentioned citizen protecting me from the rantings of a madman or Hitler Youth carrying a silly sign.

best regards
Kirk out
