      After the brief exchange between cp and I this thread has been dominated by snide and nasty attacks on me, not my ideas about the topic.

      That is not something I did, and it is something I tried very much to avoid.

      Ah yes, because this is a perfect example of trying to avoid provoking people into "attacking" you:

        I could see where that might make teal want to respond. I have no idea why it would provoke you, or cerebrum123, or pix, or rummtum, or MM, or whoever else has piled on in this thread. (I've lost count)

        You really can't see that all those people telling me how stupid, insane, dumb, and/or evil I am over a comment to teal about what I perceive as her being off the rails might feel a bit like the entire site basically despises me?

        A large number of the comments here are nothing more than people wanting simply to get another chance to say something mean to me. They have no positive or useful purpose.

        Yet that is ok? That proves I'm the fellow that is messed up?

        My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1

        If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not  bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26

        This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

              The messed up bit is that you think this is what is happening here, Jim. I am at a loss as to how to explain that to you without it being labeled an "attack"; your interpretation of events is now unfalsifiable. I will never, EVER, say anything mean to someone just for the sake of doing so. I am highly offended that you would ever think I am doing that.

                You don't see why your own bad attitude towards a friend of ours, and what appears to be a dishonest misrepresentation of her would cause us to push back against you? Really?

                  OBP is so charitable in this regard that sometimes I just wanna SMACK him.

                  I think, Jim, that you're seeing something that really isn't there, particularly with regard to the Pig.

                    This is all very one sided. You people have hurt me deeply - and you do not care. All you see is that I don't like trump and that is sufficient excuse to treat me like dung. And you won't even take five seconds to put yourselves in my shoes.

                      Because Baltimore was in the news for this issue.

                      Complaining that a group does something good is silly - doing so loudly only gives them good PR and your side bad. So, if you truly believe this, you're helping the very thing you object to.

                        Jim, I care - I've been very respectful of you, and have avoided anything that would cause friction between us.

                        OBP is weird - sometimes I can't figure out what he's saying, and he and I have had our scuffles - but I have NEVER found him to be less than forthright, and NEVER hostile just for the purpose of being hostile. I honestly think you have that one wrong.

                        Not to want to battle, I hereby withdraw from this conversation.

                          You started with the bad attitude, and Teal only tried to show you a mirror of your behavior. Instead of using it for self reflection you went and attacked her.

                          I've been the recipient of actual bullying, and mental and physical torture.What you are getting is mild push back from people you have treated like garbage. You devalue the term bullying by using it to describe what has happened here?
