The Trump Presidency will be in the top 10 in our nation's history

Youre the unofficial referee, when these threads devolve into racial discussions. I'm just pointing you in the direction of where to start.

But I never accepted the job. I can't play if I have to also referee.

I`m pretty new here, obviously. In my short time here, I`ve seen there are mostly some pretty good folks, then...there are some who feel that sitting behind a keyboard makes it good for them to talk to, and treat adults like naughty school children, whom they may talk to with any level of disrespect they feel like dishing out. I`m not very good with that.

Personally I think you are putting too positive of a spin on it, in some cases.

I think you may be misattributing motives. Get to know people before assuming they're douchebags. I consider Indiucky a friend. He has a good heart. If you get to know him, you'll likely come to the same conclusion that he's good people.

I`m extremely open to that notion. Were he to NOT attack me, it may well be that I would be prone to accept him as a friend. I, like most men, am NOT generally open to those who are attacking me.

How so?

You ever wonder why only a small handful of folks post in the politics section?

It would be a lot if all the people that ended up getting banned were included.

Consider the possibility that it wasn't intended as an attack.

 

[Expat]

How so?

I think in some cases there are a very few that hope to provoke people that they disagree with, in order to get them banned from here.

I guess, I never would have thought that possible. I know I never would have that kind of motive. Temperance is indeed a virtue, on a great many levels.

Nevertheless, I wouldn't put Indiucky in that category.

Oh yeah, I totally agree with this. They even actively politic in threads, or reports posts they don't like, to accomplish that goal.

 

[jamil]

Idunno. can't we all just get along?

I didn't mean to imply that in his case.

I recon with so many people here, there is about every type personality, and motive under the sun here too. Good to always consider when interacting with others...

 

[jamil]

I know. Just making it more obvious to the uninitiated.

 

[jamil]

I am shocked to learn that INGO has factions based on any diversity in world views. I was led to believe that INGO is a single personality.

I believe, rightly so, that you and I are going to find ourselves on the same side of many debates...When that happens I don't want your message to get lost....I am equal opportunity when it comes to this....(Except for Printcraft and his use of "Hitlery" when referring to Hillary...I just couldn't break him lol...) So I hope, even if you do not agree, that my intentions, while kind of snarky, were only in the interest of civil conversation during uncertain times...

Respect...

Indiucky aka Rick
