Freddie said:Softus just a question---why if you come across someone with views other than your own do you try to attack--blame or insult them---at first it can be seen as funny, but you know too many times, it wears thin.
Do I Freddie? That's what I do is it? A reasonably-put question of yours on the face of it, but yet another example of an untrue, and untruthful, generalisation. You haven't got your facts right.
Firstly, If you're referring to the phenomenonal child prodigy that we know only as "joe-90", then you've been on the wrong planet for the last week.
That aside, if you return to the early stages of the 'fugee' topic, when oilman and myself were politely trying to solicit an explanation from slogger, and then from you, it's a far cry from the picture you're painting here. Have a look at my posting of "Sat Nov 05, 2005 8:20 pm", and then tell me that you haven't generalised.
And let's talk about blame - on the fugee topic I never once expressed my general views on immigration or of the governments handling of it, and yet I've been classed as a lefty and a loony, and described as having a view held only by a very few. None of my very specific questions, or indeed oilman's, which were seeking to clarify facts and gain understanding, was ever answered. Instead we all had to endure pages of venomous ranting, and threats of assault, all at sea in a vessel captained initially by Slogger and then by you, pitching us from port to starb'd in a madcap sightseeing tour of every groundless prejudice and empty-headed non-sequitor that such a topic could ever contain.
To be frank, your double-standards are a bore. This is a forum - if it's wearing thin for you then just deal with it.
