And who is accusing whom of being childish? LOL!
I don't know you from Adam..........or should that be 'Eve?', and I most certainly have never called you a racist (nor do I call anyone else a racist), but perhaps if you get called it once a day, have you considered that there might be some truth to it?
A wise person takes criticism from any source and sees if there is a grain of truth in it. Usually there is, and behavior is best modified.
See..... even I......part of chris' imaginary 'clown posse'......take phony accusations such as I got last night from chris and Echiladita, and see if I might be able to express myself more concisely so they don't have an image that is not even close to being correct about me.
I may not respect them a bit for their saying things that are completely and utterly false about me, but I use those bogus accusations to improve myself, and my communication skills.
Maybe you should try that.
And next time you post to me, try something a bit more mature, OK? That was a really dumb post.
What about that group hug? Still no go???????????
I freely admit that was childish, so was your reaction to the "clown" post. I don't know you from Adam either; but generally when one is offended by a post they either respond directly to the poster with their concern or ignore it.
Usually one doesn't even go to the moderators unless an issue is really serious, much less to JR. I know it is only polite to notify others when you mention them in a post. I just thought your reaction was over the top. Just struck me as childish and brought out a childish reaction from me.
The threads concerning border issues are getting pretty touchy, many of us are getting a little over the top; and no I am not a racist, far from it. In fact if those who call me that knew me they would even have to admit I am not a racist. My family is a melting pot all of it's own and I personally consider myself a "mutt" pedigree wise, so it would be hard for me to be a racist.
We could all stand to do a little growing up.
