It is quite another for you to offend people with statements such as :

"Ok I understand now. Definitely no brain cells there. Topic moving to another forum"

"You are all a perfect example of gullible retarded americans who just sit home all day and eat. Pick up a book sometimes people or watch tv for christs sake."

"This will be my last post to you all. For I must now depart." Why didn't you leave? LOL

"I keep forgetting I live in New York City. Where there are all types of people here. You people all come from little hick towns and wouldnt even be aware if there was a tsunami headed your way."

"These people could care less about anything. They are just backing eachother up since they are all such great internet friends. Get a life people and find some friends off the internet. "

"OOPS LOOKS LIKE I ACCIDENTLY STUMBLED INTO THE LESBIAN FORUM. SORRY GUYS"

"YEAH SO HE GOT HIS C*CK SOCKED. GET OVER IT
"

"OZONE DO NOT BOTHER THESE PEOPLE ARENT REALLY USE TO BEING AROUND MINORITIES AND LIVE IN THERE OWN LITTLE AMERICAN WORLD. "

etc...

You are also spamming the forum...pulling up thread after thread and adding little nonsensical statements in order to garner attention.

Again, having an opinion is important and most people here have tolerated it and taken it in stride, but you are crossing that line from opinion to being offensive.

This board will tolerate alot, but there is a point when you could get banned. Using foul or offensive terminology is one such way. Calling people lesbians in a manner used to offend or referring to whites as "white trash" because you do not like what they are saying and then adding that you are not white, is racist.

We'd like for you to stay, so please abide by the rules of civility and stop with the personal attacks.

AM,
What point is there in joining a forum full of open minded, spiritually aware and ever learning individuals if you merely want to bash and torment them with your negativity and superiority complex? Now, I could understand your frustration (partly, but only because I have wayyyy to much air in Aqua in my chart) if everyone jumped up and said you were an idiot, but they did not. Just because nobody jumped on your little bandwagon and said ''You know what??? You are sooooo right!! How did I not see this before? You have opened my eyes! You are a genius, thank you so much!! All hail AM!!'' you felt the need to then turn around and call everyone ignorant hicks and make other such references to the intelligence level of people you don't even know. How dare you be so high and mighty?? That is not how the world works, love. People will not fall to their knees and follow you just because you think you know all. You cannot assume that you are any more intelligent or better at understanding the human condition just because you live in New York City. If living in NYC makes people so much more culturally aware and wiser than anyone else in other parts of the US, how do you explain the intolerance, hate crimes, murders, rapes and disorder that exists there in such abundance? Very poor example of being so ''enlightened''.

What strikes me and makes me so irritated with you is your complete hypocricy in what you say. You do realize that people who do not discriminate do not need to point out how ''open minded'' they are? They just are... For you to sit there and call everyone on thier intolerance and ''racist'' attitudes is complete Taurus poop... (no offense my dear Taureans, I wasn't gonna swear ) If you were in any way as tolerant as you apparently THINK you are, you would not have a problem with people having differing opinions than you. And you know what you have completely failed to grasp? The fact that the souls here think a hell of a lot more than you do... they question, they seek out truth for themselves, they do not just buy into the crap on tv and on the internet without question... they are amazing people who care about this planet and all the creatures that reside on it. Open up your eyes, look past the skyward nose on your face and actually read what people are saying...

Oh, and you may want to jump off your high horse before it runs you over a cliff...

Oh My..what will our hubby's and significant other's think about us being "forced" out of the closet by the all knowing AM?

What's sad is that the whole "lesbian" thing was meant to insult us.

Even if every last one of us was a lesbian, who the heck cares?

Maybe not the best time or place for a little philosophical meandering but ... I've noticed the interesting phenomenon of younger African-Americans sometimes refering to each other with a certain word begining with "n" - a word I have never and will never use. "owning" this word by using it amongst themselves seems to somehow invalidate the nastiness - to speak the unspeakable is an old trick. Just a theory - I've never gotton a straight answer from anyone I've known that has used it. So I wonder if "white trash" doesn't sound racist to me simply because I am white.

In all honesty, one phrase thrown out in anger doesn't normally get my attention. Taking in the big picture and watching patterns emerge does.

I took the white trash comment out of the list because I realized that you had said it. I almost changed my mind about politely warning AM- but then his / her posts because even more angry, almost psychotic. He / she started to use lesbian in a derogatory manner, calling people retarded, cussing..etc...

It was the continued spamming of the board that I really noticed...The spamming was not done in a manner that would be consistant with wanting to open up discussions for debate, more in order to offend and cause annoyance. I fail to see where calling people "baby killers" is going to lead into an intelligent discussion.

I did it, first, out of concern- then because she / he needed to be warned that people get banned for things like that. I am suprised at his / her behaviour because on other threads AM has been very polite and informative. It makes me wonder if someone hijacked AM's Username?

So Tink..no worries..I know you and I disagree on things and there have been times when I have referred to something you have said but didn't name you (actually that is something I do because I normally just look at what is said, not the speaker- because I don't want to be biased towards the person or allow my thoughts about them to cloud my reaction). I never did it as a way of trying to slight you
