Fine. Disagree. Your third sentence is a non sequitur. It has nothing to do with our original discussion of intent and was, in fact, a point only recently made.

I don't think that's ever been a topic of debate. But why are you posting a URL that simply duplicates what you're saying? It doesn't add context and it doesn't prove anything except that you said it before, which isn't in question.

Yes, Dr. Bob, intention should enter into it. But no, that's not how I think it should be. It should be fair. The point you keep ignoring is that one person repeated my exact post, and you determined hers was negative and mine was not.

WHOA! TALK ABOUT OUT OF CONTEXT! My next bunch of sentences told you to look at ANY and ALL of their posts for an example, even explained what I meant. What I'm not willing to do, however, is supply the URLs of all the posts; it would be time consuming and futile. And you're obviously not even willing to look into it.

For some. For others, it's a lot of pain and suicidal ideation and a board that won't be able to help them as much as it used to--not because, as Shar has said, we political folks don't care about those in pain, but because we need support, too. And we're not getting it from you. We're getting a bunch of one-liners and sarcasm disguised as innocent cuteness like above.I hope you give Sandra Dee the apology she deserves, even if you won't do it on the board, so everyone can see that, maybe, under it all, you're a mensch.
