| Milforum's Bouncer | So are we going to move on or continue to bait Phoenix until he responds and this spirals downwards into flaming and general hate and discontent? Just asking. In this age of 24 hour internet news, misinformation is part of the lay of the land. I heartily acknowledge that Phoenix is a bit rabid at times but bear in mind folks, he's young, he's an idealist and more passionate than most because he is a student in exile who sees what is country is and is pained daily by what he knows it could be. We make allowances for mates who we know have walked through the fire and bear scars. If you have a mate who's had a bad divorce do you not bear in silence with them as they whinge and belay the entire female half of our species? If you think they cross the line do you announce it to the whole bar or do you pull them aside and whisper to them? Praise in public, counsel in private.

It's just that the continued use of the old ploy where anyone who doesn't agree with his extremist views is painted as a leftist, is wearing a bit thin. He continually trolls persons in this manner, trying to get a bite. Any idiot who calls me a leftist merely because I'm willing to look at both sides of the argument will get the return that he so eagerly desires. Being an ideallist and passionate is quite OK, baiting, trolling and flooding is something else. This last episode being a typical example of his over-anxious, foot in mouth writing. Leftists....? leftists be damned, it was the Park Rangers, they are probably no more leftist than I am.. Back on track.

| Banned ![]() | so, i think what we have here is a great example of why it's a BAD idea to fly completely off the handle based on no evidence, the number of people that were screaming bloody murder that it would deffinatly be commies, or anti-american libs was defening my guess is the appologies and retractions will be someone more quiet. the better way to approach to this would have been to make DESCREETE enquiries until concrete proof had been found, THEN you come down on those responsible with rightous wrath....rather than running round half cocked like the loony psuedo patriots that they always seemed to be to me. case closed...move on |
