Adios again

Can't take it anymore. There is entirely too much anger being expressed around here. Anger is one thing but the vile hatefull way in which it is being expressed is yet another.

I don't need the aggrivation and stress this board relays everytime I read the inflamatory crap being posted.

I missed it too. Thankfully.

Politics and religion = fuel for feuds.

Check in again from time to time, John...Ben

Yeah

me too ... although chances are I posted it

I keep hearing stuff here like you just said ... "Anger is one thing but the vile hatefull way in which it is being expressed is yet another." ... yet nobody seems to have the guts or whatever to actually post a quote of the alleged offending wordage. The CB has some great fine & fair moderators on duty. If you, or anybody else, can illustrate "the vile hateful way" ... that somehow the moderators missed seeing, I'll bet $10-to-$1 they will zap the perb's post in nano-seconds.

It is also observable that the "vile hateful way" seems to apply to only one side of the political fence, and is only noted as offensive by those on the other side of the political fence. Surely, permitting only "nice talk" about politicians violates the very idea the USA was founded on.

This site is tame. It's also about the best BS site on the net. I get sick of the whiners pissin and moanin about their widdle toes getting stepped on in the politics forum. Friggin babys need to grow a set or go home to change their diapers.

Nice talk about politicians - truly Un-American. I throw them in with attorneys and used car salesman. I cant even talk nice about the ones I voted for - they still don't do EVERYTHING my way. Why I just don't know - they must not be reading my mind

Politicians - ba humbug - what do we need with them????

Oops - I guess we would have nothing to gripe about here with out them - then again we could gripe about our spouses or girlfriends, but that would only last as long as them not finding out about it, and then where would we be - really in the dog house in deep do do.

I rather have some kind hearted bilge rat beat me up here on politics and religion (help me Lord on that one)

then the Boss telling me to sleep in the dog house

I seem to remember something form grade school "Sticks and stones will break my bones but words will never heart me" Took this old fart a while but I finally understand. Negative opinions and verbal abuse are just words - size up who is saying what, listen to what they haft to say, and you might be surprised that you find something you agree on. it might be just.000000000000001 but that better than nothing. The just ignore the rest of the BS and smile - OK grimace - but don't take it personal just because I don't agree - after all YODA will get revenge - remember the Force.

Good point little green Jedi.

Sometimes you have to get beyond the approach - or call them to task on their approach. Other times you have to evaluate who is doing the vile slinging and just consider the source and let it go. People can see through that. And sometimes it's just baiting. And if you take the bait - well - then you're just as guilty as they are.

I've mellowed out here. If someone disagrees with me I realize I am not going to change their mind so I agree to disagree and then ignore the rest of the thread. Some I don't even bother looking in because I don't have the time and I can see the thread for what it is....bait.

You're a wise man, River Rat, but considering your advanced age, you should be.
