Here Jen go here and read his responses, and tell me if they are reasonable?

I have been switching between threads, and my frustration level has obviously been rubbing off on this one, for that I apologize.

GO to that thread, read ALS's posts, and then read the responses and questions that are asked of him, and then again, read his responses.

If this is the behavior of a mature adult that wishes to add to the discussion, in your view, then I believe that you are the one with the problem.

You read that, and private message me what you think of his behavior, I am done in this thread discussing this subject.

Aric has a point. He is not the only one who has crossed swords with ALS tonight. I think the Jerry Lewis thing was the low point, because jennyp is among the most on-point posters on FR, and she did not deserve that kind of response. As far as I could tell, she never got riled and never posted anything except fact-based questions.

I think we are allowed to get a bit warm when straight questions are mocked.

I have a great idea.......

Why don't you ignore him if you don't like what he has to say? Seriously? Many of us here enjoy his posts and are equally as annoyed as you are with YOURS. Difference is...we don't have happy-abuse-clickfest-parties....(but we easily could). Truth is... while you might claim that ALS is why the threads get pulled, you fail to see that it's your own whining that causes it. Why would you whine? Especially for ALS's posting on that thread. He broke NO rules (unlike you bringing that bag into this thread). Try to focus on this one thing....... There are MANY here who don't share YOUR views. We are just as entitled to OUR say. Here's the difference.... When YOU and your side break the rules, WE get over it and handle it like DEBATE forums do. Whe WE break the rules, YOU guys WHINE and CRY and turn into frothing-mommyseeking-hypocrites.

These threads will ALWAYS be heated. The topic is heated. It's the nature of the beast. Get over it or ignore it.

I don't even see anything wrong with heated discourse.
I have no need to private message you.
