Originally Posted By StillThePassHolder I've hesitated posting in this thread until now because I wanted to make sure of what I wanted to say.

I haven't been an angel around here, but I have tried to be much less confrontational. However, when I see gratuituous remarks about me in threads I'm not even in, its what has made me start to think about seriously curtailing my participation as well. Case in point, I did happen to see the smarmy remarks thrown K2M's way by a certain right winger that have since been deleted. That would illustrate my point perfectly. More than ever, opposing viewpoints are even tolerated anymore here. You get insulted, accuse dof being unpatriotic and have your religion questioned. All things, of course, that the posters who say these things would never have the guts to say in person. So, then, I understand completely where K2M is coming from. After I was suspended for a while, I vowed not to get as involved as I was before. By and large I think I succeeded, but not always. I hate playing down to the competition, and that's what this place makes you do.

I hate that last post but the tree does make a noise whether STPH hears it or not.

Originally Posted By Jim in Merced CA That's the big difference you and me, Beau. I would never want to spend a minute with any of you, or any of the other more 'right wing' personalities. I can't switch gears like an automaton, and put on different faces that quickly. Why would I want to take someone's B.S. here, have people mock me and call me names, and then spend an afternoon at an LP.com meet at Disneyland? The answer -- I wouldn't.

I do see your point but Beau would be the first one to admit my previous sentence. Again, this has been said, but MOST people here would get along great in person! They really would. This WE IS such an emotional place. We all deserve credit here, even STPH, for saying what we say.

If you take the time to go back and read his post, he's sympathizing with K2M, and the larger point that civilized discussion is getting hard to come by. As if to emphasize his point, you two jump in and tag team him with topics he never mentioned. You kids go to your room - even if it is in "the ridge" (paint me impressed).
Originally Posted By cape cod joe Man--I just read that last sentence of stph post about playing down to the competition and that ANGERED me (not about me being the competition) but before I came on here, I thought I was not above the fray but "beyond the fray" as I am wont to say. In all honesty there are double digit people here that are way beyond me intellectually, and it really galled me to read that ultimate supercilious hubris, to be tautological, from stph. It really hit a nerve that he indicted those aforementioned geniuses with that epithet!!!
