I really hate it when I'm on the other side of the river from everyone else, but I think M&M handled this poorly.
Had they stepped in and posted on the specific topic it would have been better, or posted and locked it, but removing it was wrong.
I had read some of the posts, but apparently missed the terrible ones, I'll never know now since they're gone.
Also gone for me is something else, I don't know what to call it but it's lost.
MB's "turd' post, while apparently appreciated by some was not by me, just smoke and mirrors BS.
Like Rebel, I thought of leaving permanently, of course it wouldn't do any good or change anything.
I am going to leave for awhile, I just don't think I can stand to read another 3M post.  Like I said, something has changed for me.
I'll come back later in the winter and see if my attitude has changed, but for now, goodbye.

I see that a lot of people don't think this is any big deal and it really isn't. Some people may have had some gripes and it seems that even they can let those go. It kind of seemed like those gripes were all in fun, but I think we can all see how someone on the outside might not.

A few people seem so offended, as if their freedom of speech has been stomped, but while this may seem like kind of a public place, it is someone else's house (domain) and he should be able to set some rules. I'm a little unclear about when something has become a rant, but when I understand it, I'll abide by it in MB's house.

By the way, there was a thread where some of us discussed organizing peaceful rallies at our state capitols. Does that fall under the call to action rule? While I don't want to push the limits of someone else's "house" rules, I probably would want to put a little heat on our legislatures.

I was expecting to see something from the band "Rage Against The Machine". DO NOT watch all the way to the end if the "F word" offends you. I find this more tolerable than listenening to Kumbaya. At least it's English.

Way to go Jaybethel its all your fault. LOL ;D

You and your paperweight caused all this. Next time PM me and we can talk bad behind everyone's back.

That way it is more mature and things can go on being screwed up with something or someone we care about instead of giving them the criticism they may need to get better.

Alot of people in Seattle like to act this way, and I bet we can all guess who they will vote for too.
Did we win???

I too was expecting to see Rage Against the Machine. In my early days of junior college, I hung out in a group of friends that included Zach from RATM (pre-rage). He was a guitar player back then and not quite so angry. He did however go out and get a tattoo of Martin Luther King Jr. that we teased him for, because it looked like Sherman Hemsley of the Jeffersons. Funny how we take different paths. I was one of only 2 people in that group who could be considered conservative.

About the rules… can I still complain about California's gun laws?

99% sure it is English. There are a couple of words I can't quite make out. But I'm 100% sure Kumbaya is NOT English. I think it's a Creole dilect called Gullah which I don't speak or understand at all. Tonight I think I finally know what that word means for the first time in my life. Does anyone here speak Geechee?
