I really do not want people trying to dig into the private backgrounds of our posters. The trolls show their hands soon enough.
Thanks,
Jim

I didn't see post 680, so I didn't know why you posted what you did, so I don't know what was posted by Mike the Lurker. If it was personal info about another Freeper that was being posted I understand, but if it was questioning the motives of a Bush Basher who posts nothing but negativity, I don't.

If someone asked me what I did for a living, I would either tell them that I own and operate my own Auto Body Shop and have been fixing wrecked cars all my life, or tell them it was none of their business. But if I was trashing the only conservative that will face the Dem candidate next fall, I would expect to be asked what my motives were.... Am I wrong?

I just read that post. I appreciate that Jim. I think it's fine for a poster to ask what someone may do for a living. But that should be the extent of it.

When it reaches a point where the questions turn to demands, regarding, who pays their salary, the name of the organization/company they may work for, and other specific details surrounding their gainful employment, is crossing the line. IMHO.
