Yes!

A crackdown on these recalcitrant trolls is long overdue!

I'm sure glad that I always remain dignified and above the fray, and therefore have nothing to worry about.

This forum should be a place for political debate. Personal vendettas interfere with that purpose. This is not a matter of keeping score. Each person should accept responsibility for his or her own conduct. Any real or perceived slight does not justify massive retaliation, or stalking, or a campaign of character assassination. There are plenty of targets for finger-pointing. Finger-pointing is not the type of posting that makes this a worthwhile website to visit. I detest the thought of having to engage in line-drawing when adults should be capable of drawing reasonable lines on their own. But if it is necessary for the health of this forum, I will.


Regards,

D-Ray

Well said Don.

The almost incessant snide personal attacks are getting out of hand. Attack and defend ideas, not each other.

Much as I like using the f word, let's dial it back a bit, eh?

Feel free to bash me with the kettle...
