That did it.

Rampant racism and anti-Semetism

(and some folks here not even bothering to TRY to hide it anymore)

"Holier Than Thous" who think they are on God's A List

Terri Schiavo and the resulting hysteria.

The "Nuke Meccah NOW" Bunch

The Gay-Bashers

It's vile and disgusting and I'm done with it.




To the folks on the UT and in the Canteen, it's been fun.

Some of you know how to get in touch.

Feel free, anytime.


Mr. Robsinson, Please Nuke my account.

[Darksheare]

Naah.
Don't get yourself nuked.
I know about people saying stupid stuff.
Been reading alot of it today.


Just hang out in the UT, and relax some.
As you once said to me, "Ignore 'em!"
See you 'back at the barn'.

[rdb3]

I can't lie. I fully understand your sentiment. I truly do.

[Americanwolf]

Tiamat,

I understand your frustration... I don't alway appricate what gets printed out her either... it is one of the prices though of free speech... As much as we have right to say what we feel..

Others have that right to... unfortunatly it can be harsh derogotory and plain wrong. I won't fault you for leaving at times the attitude around here has felt untenable.

Please remember those that you hear at times are the vocal minority.

on that note It has been a pleasure to have met you and talk to you, and if you do come back through at a future time just shout and say hi.

[Petronski]

Farewell, tia.

[Not A Snowbird]

I know how you feel, I'm pretty fed up myself. May I suggest you just avoid the main board for awhile?

You'll miss us, admit it.

[Gabz]

I'm sorry to see you saying this - but I do understand.

I'm starting to get sick of some of the holier-than-thou, racist, anti-semetic, anti-Catholic, gaybashing, etc., etc., crapola attitudes myself.

It's why I pretty much stick to only a few topics, and some dedicated type threads.....but my patience is also starting to wear thin.

[King Prout]

don't let the pusilanimous pusguts drive you away, baby!

[NicknamedBob]

It's been attributed to Joe Garagiola.

Supposedly, as a catcher, he saw an opposing baseball player "cross" himself as he stepped up to the plate.

"Fer cryin' out loud," said Joe, "can't you let God just watch the game?"

[trussell]

Tia...please don't go! You're fighting nature is needed here!

[Petronski]

Oh, btw:

DON'T GO!

[OSHA]

Take a couple of deep breaths.

Feel better?

No?

Oh well, it never helps me either.

[diverteach]

Bye

[cyborg]

:(

[Do not dub me shapka broham]

Don't do it.

:(

[bad company]

Please stay.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Don't leave. You are one of my favorite people and you are needed to keep the nuts in line.

[Wormwood]

I'm considering leaving as well...the inmates are truly running the asylum.

[who knows what evil?]

Sorry the First Amendment offends you...

[Conspiracy Guy]

Pay no attention to these idiots. If God wanted to kill the gays, the storm would have hit during their festival. Nature was created by God and it is an independant system operating on it's own.

[grellis]

C'mon, Tia. Please don't do this. Be one of the prevailing cooler heads. If enough of us can manage to NOT respond to the kind of bilge you cited--apart from reporting it as obvious abuse--the forum will quickly clean itself up. We need clear-thinking FReepers like you to stick around, especially us fellow mitten citizens.

Diver, I am saddened that you have not been suspended at the least. You deserve to be banned. God did not unleash a monster to smite the gulf coast, but you can bet your sorry ass He is watching our reactions to the devastation.
