We are all big boys and girls on this forum. While direct attacks such as racial slurs are plainly evident (and not tolerated), syllogisms, categorical propositions, and oblique references are slurs in the minds of some, not of others.
While I personally feel this thread has degenerated into worthless attacks, I don't see anything that requires the thread be locked or posters warned or blocked. I tend to agree with WIMH, and I think Auntie Annie has to be brain dead if she is not fully aware of how she stirs the pot.
We moderators are loathe to censor in any way, except for a handle of obvious situations. The board owners have always let it run as wide open as possible.
So, my advice is this: Annie, go take a cold shower, and quit turning ever reply of yours into an accusation. The rest, go take a cold shower, and quit posting. You only provide more fodder.
Eau2011, say whatever you want. But like they say, "If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen".
You want really ugly free speech. Try the toads at Westboro Baptist Church.

OMG, what a hot potato here!
The good thing is there's FP in all the latest high techs you guys are buying for your parents, but let not the word 'buy' stain the purist concept of non-monetary love.
What a stange deviation this thread's gone - what's the subtext?
Clues, clues clues; yet some people don't know it takes two to tango.
But thanks mods, you're a fair bunch, and utterly lovable beings under the heavy armoury. Bet you can't wait for the bottle after this amount of warfare, just don't make me pay for the rounds. ( fingers crossed )
Just one snag, here SE, I'm not annIE as in Annie Get Your Gun, but Anne and it's just one syllable. I remember telling you this before ( which shows I pay attention to you )
Brain dead? Well, I must have been to too many operas or scorned by too many kids. Don't our parents always want us to do better than them.
No cold showers here in temperatures that's -1 honey.
But I am extremely sorry if this thread's attracting high volumes that'll affect the board's business. Just let me know and I'll vanish like Ariel in the Tempest.
