Thanks, Yhitzak, you're correct.
But it was Gringa, but they're just two of 5 people using one brain.

I like going off subject..The board doesn't need to be compartmentalised into neat little subjects..I think..And once these threads get on the second page..Nobody will read them again...Ever

I'm sorry Yhitzak- I did try to ignore tp- in fact I was devoutly hoping that he would stay away from my board as he has never been anything but abusive to me. I have sat ankles crossed and hands folded in my lap as a polite lady taking whatever was dished out to me by bullies like these my entire life. No more. I have my opinions, my beliefs and my knowledge and I will not be beaten down by these low-lifes because they can yell louder or swear longer than I. (Honestly, after being raised in the military, that would be a feat). Here on line I don't have to fear their fists, so I can make a stand. If they wish to be treated courteously, then that is how they need to behave- they can't come here with the sole intent to abuse and belittle me, MP, Gringa, Rue, you or any of the other community members here without it being pushed back in their faces. I have tried the soft voice of reason, ignoring them altogether and putting myself on time outs. If you have any further suggestions short of banning them (which I vowed I would not do) I would love to hear them.

Heh. Honestly, I can't tell you the amount of self-restraint I routinely try to exhibit, and it is not always easy. And the more personal matters are to us and our lives, the more difficult it is to separate our injustice from rationalism. And you're right, DB, that allowing yourself to be bullied is ultimately counterproductive. I dunno. It's not you, it's not even TPP. It's just... the topic in and of itself. And that's all I was really trying to say. So thanks, ya'll, for listening (reading, whatever).

Self-restraint? The bullies are on the left. The shovelers of their crap on are on the right. The problem exists when the crap lands back on the left.
