You know I think we all have had the same experiences on Youtube and other such sites. Your rules are very appropriate and a good reminder of what we all should be doing.
I think what we tend to forget is this. That we are vastly the majority. But we are silent for the most part. The few whining liberals (being generous) is about 10-15% (Okay very generous) - BUT They make noise and are well organized.
If we get organized our respectful and sound voices can drown them out very effectively. The less we say, the more empowered and bolder they become.
Thanks for the reminder.
Some have asked for links. I was just inspired by this thread on FR: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2743149/posts
Go to youtube and search “it gets better”. that will keep you busy for months!
