My great grandmother never swore, belittled, or raised her voice. When she was done scolding you, you felt about an inch tall. When manners and intelligence respond to knee jerk inflammatory response, troll generally starve to death, dry up and blow away. My experience anyway.

Not directing this at anyone, just answering an interesting question.

NEWSFLASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

5 below wins 1st prize in Ike's Inaugural Inane Pot/Kettle Post of the Month Award, a one week all expense paid vacation to International Falls, MN. (Second prize, a two week all expense paid vacation to International Falls, MN will be awarded at a later date).

Congratulations 5 below!


PS - I'm gonna tell y'all what I learned on the job about perps. As some have been saying here...ignore a perp and the the lack of attention will cause them to seek to satisfy their attention jones elsewhere. I have found that to be true in most cases. However, there is always the occasional perp that will never go away. That's sometimes a problem...particularly on a non-banning board. It is, IMO, the price those of us who prefer non-banning boards pay for our preference.

YMMV! Perhaps I am running out of gas.
Point well made and under review, but not yet accepted.

You're not entitled to disagree. Actually, the point is that disagreement on this type of forum is its life-blood. But there is a difference between holding different opinions and discussing them, and constantly repeating someone else's opinion, without a clue how to actually support it. There is no exchange of ideas going on under such circumstances.

D-Ray

There are well informed opinions and then there are the well rehearsed talking points couched as opinions which often blurs reality.

So here we go one more time:
Benghazi, IRS, ACA, First Lady transformed to Last Lady ()
I am surprised that no one has brought up a missing birth certificate.

D-Ray,
I think you are absolutely right. I agree completely.
