Moving forward and from this day on:

1. Discuss things like adults.
2. Stop the insults and personal attacks.
3. Stop demanding that each and every post in this NG has to contain
or
be
related to boats.

Obey #1 and #2 and we will all be fine.

I am not saying I am not guilty......only that I see a need. ;-)


What a joke. You apparently do not realize that the posting of the
inflammatory, OT, political crap you refer to in '3' is what leads to
'1'
and '2'.

You know that's true, yet you persist.

Persist? I posted a news story. Others chose to make it political and
bring it down into the gutter.

See #1 and #2 above.

Have a terrific day John.


There are thousands of news stories every day that have nothing to do
with recreational boating. Should they all be posted here? Why did you
choose this one? Will you be cut 'n pasting a story that makes the Bush
family or some other conservative family look bad in the near future?
If not, why not? (But, please don't!). Aren't there dozens of places on
the net dedicated to the discussion of politics?

(See previous comments about red flags and raging bull.)


OK. I made a mistake and admitted it. It was the first time since last
year I posted something political and I get jumped on by everyone for doing
so. Lesson learned and it won't happen again.

That being said, my suggestions in my initial post to this thread stand.
The name calling and personal attacks continued through last night and into
today. Some folks also cannot discuss things like an adult. Correct those
2 things and all will once again be good here. ;-)
