I'm done talking with you...if I had bothered to look before hand I would have realized that you were from Texas and not even engaged you...debating with a Texan is like debating with a Christian...not enough "up there" to have a useful debate.

Have one, hombre.

fpw Wrote:[SIZE="3"]No apology necessary. I sensed things escalating so I waved a flag. That's all. We have an ignore function on the board. If someone consistently rankles you, you put them on your ignore list and you'll never see their posts.

My own experiances on the SCARLET STREET forum awhile back illustrated this when their forum members attacked me on personal grounds because of my very sane, common sense and very fair suggestions on Illegal Immigration. The chief attacker, a writer who didn't know me from Adam, proceeded to tear into me on a vicious level when the group started to make light about the death of Bob ("Christmass Story") Clarke and his son (an illegal immigrant, intoxicated, drove his car into the director's causing the death). I carefully defended my viewpoint, done without malice up to that point, by asking these individuals if they would repeat these horrid things in front of the devasted wife and other family members. They totally ignored that question and continued the attacks. I left the forum pointing out that the attitudes represented another aspect of the fanboy fringe-not intelligent discussion, a sad state of affairs of a group more interested in talking about gore cinema than real life. And the writer who hated being challenged.....
At this website, Paul has brought togeather, in a family atmosphere, a great place where we all can come togeather and WITH RESPECT exchange ideas and opinions without fear of personal attack or mudslinging. To AGREE to DISAGREE is a wonderful thing to do-it builds character and always gives us a chance to pause and to think. So c'mon, shake hands here and give us all more food for thought!
