You're free to do so, of course, but you are 'taking sides' IMO. Granted, you haven't stooped to his level of name-calling, but by your continued discourse with him you're providing him a lot of encouragement. But, that's your choice. I am not a 5th grader taking "sides" *John. I think there's a big difference between having disagreements about politics, boats, guitars, wine, collard green receipes or whatever and being able to discuss, even debate the subjects without resorting to name calling/insults ..... and the tit for tat personal insults that are constantly being hurled back and forth here. I try *(not always successful) to subscribe to that rule and I have no problem conversing with anyone who displays the same level of respect to me, even if we disagree 100%. * Even Harry. You have the luxury of being one of the two here wafa kisses up to.. the rest of us I guess just have to hold our noses. Behave as you wish to be treated, or stop whining. Easy choice. You don't see me whining. -- Not for another couple of days anyway.... 5 days till independence day, yay beer! |
