“I think youre way out of line in making such demands.. If you dont like the source of an article dont click on the link to read it. Or is that too much to ask of you? Stop acting like a whiny little prima donna.”
I didn’t mean to sound like I was making a demand. I’m a guest here along with everyone else, and I am grateful to belong to the community.
It is my opinion that WND is publishing articles designed to cause fear — for the purpose of getting web hits. The title of this article is “U.S. on alert for nuclear blast overhead.” This is over-the-top. Yes, there is a threat. A great threat. But that company is capitalizing on fear, and I am not alone in this opinion.
“Stop acting like a whiny little prima donna.”
I apologize if my post soundy whiny. I do hope that is not the case. I have no demand to make. But I do stand by my request. I think that WND has gone too far, and my opinion is that FR should not be sending them traffic. I think WND has become bad for conservatism. Again, this is my opinion. And the Moderators are very free to ignore me.
I ended my post with “Thank you, Moderators, for your consideration. And bless you, regardless of your decision.” I don’t think that sounds like I am a “whiny little prima donna.” At least I hope not.
But thank you for your response. I sometimes need to be pulled back like everyone else, and I went back and re-read my post to see if I had come across as demanding. I don’t think I did, but it can be good to be cautioned. I thank you.
One other thing: I checked out your Freeper page and see that you served in the USMC 1981 - 1996. Awesome! Thank you for your long service to our country.
EMP is a credible threat, and if WND wants to raise awareness of this threat; good for them. Do note that the ‘article’ appears to be a thinly-veiled advertisement for a book, however. Last time I checked, WND is a business, and is welcome to try to get as many ‘hits’ as they possibly can.
I thought your comment appropriate and not at all out of line. This is an opinion forum after all.
Also, a WND headline like that really does not belong in Breaking News.
In my opinion.
This is not an advice forum but you might benefit from reading up on how to handle ad hominem attacks.
WOW! You are a good dude!!!
Humble and gracious!!!
I think you over-estimate the number of Freepers who bother to actually go to the link and read it all.
