This thread and all its content will remain intact and open for any additional comments! No problem....whatever it is I did wrong, I guess I'll never know for sure. I'm going to be off this site for a while. It's hard to believe, that this one article, has turned out to be my downfall on here. Maybe I should just close my account. Yes. It's being closed after all. I really didn't want to, but it's for the best. Blessings go out to you all on here, and I wish nothing but the best for each and everyone on here.

I am not sure why you feel it was your downfall... I certainly do not feel that it was. I also don't think you should leave either... we all have different beliefs different politics and that is what makes this site so unique... I have heard from others that other forums are censored and people are not free to express their feelings... well here it is open and free.... I really hope you do change your mind....

There is just way too much negativity on just one article I wrote, and I just can't handle stress as well as I used to. It's best that I go Rebecca. I'm found on face book, and Chistian's like me, as well as blogster, if you're on any of those sites.

You put up a thread in a General category where ALL members are free to discuss the content of the original post. In all fairness, members contributed to this thread. How do you suppose they would feel if the thread they chose to contribute to, was suddenly deleted? How would you feel if you made a post, debating in a thread and it suddenly just up and disappeared? I'm sure, you wouldn't like it either. Just because you didn't like some of the responses, doesn't give you the right to demand a thread be deleted. That's just not going to happen at TRF. That is not the policy we follow here. May I suggest you take a break and if you do come back and want to continue posting, that would be great! If not, I answered you private message and it awaits you. Have a good day, Ellie!

I don't understand what you are trying to say here. How do you feel that "one" article/thread has been your "downfall", as you put it?
The way I see it is that you put something out there for all to read. People have read it and out of those that have read it and have chosen to make a comment, did so of their own free will such as you did by creating the thread and posting the article.
Cyber life mimics real life. There are those out there that are boisterous and outspoken, those that are shy, quiet and reserved, those that are nice and those that are naughty. As in real life, people of the cyber realm are free to come and go as they please and speak their collective minds without restrictions. Such as in the case here with your thread.
What makes our world so wonderful and unique is the fact that everyone is different and no two of us will see or interpret something the same way as another. To hear differing viewpoints on any particular subject, to me anyway, is fascinating and enlightening. I learn by reading, I learn by listening and I learn by asking what I think are all the right questions.
From time to time, I will solicit viewpoints from others on a subject(s) that I find interesting but not necessarily interesting to those I elicit responses from. But that's how I learn. Sometimes someone will not always agree, but to me, it's a learning experience to hear what's on someone else's mind. In that respect, I can come to understand more about my fellow humans and hopefully become a better person for it by trying to understand the human condition all the more. Running away from something or throwing in the towel when faced with something as trivial as a negative response to a post is, at least to me, a "cop-out".
I, for one, will be sorry to see you leave if you so choose to do so, but that is your decision.

I really don't understand what has happened here.. Neither do I. It sounds to me, some very hurt feelings coupled with not really understanding the way the forum works. I just have that feeling from reading over the entire thread. It is shame that someone go away upset but as you said... it is always a personal decision

Listen,,, I am an American FIRST. Party second. We can all have different opinions,,, even heated ones. That is one of the things that make this country GREAT. We can be free thinkers. There are some country's if you think for yourself you are either tortured and killed or imprisoned. Most of us can not stand President Loser, and are unable to show any respect. I was taught at a very young age to respect my elders, so I did. One of the elders I respected was my babysitter. The same babysitter that dragged me by my arm and threw me on the dark shed and locked the door when I was about 3 years old, if not younger. The same babysitter that tied down her grand kids in their beds. I did not know that was wrong back then. I will not give respect to anyone that does not either earn it or deserve it,, even if he or she holds the title of President. And don't even get me started on the Vietnam Vets. I have very high respect for them. They came back, were spit on, called baby killers and all other sorts of nasty names. No one knows but them what they went through,, ripped from all over America and thrown in a war zone like no other, with an enemy like no other.
Then in 1980 the Iran Hostages come home,,, welcoming home comity's , parades, the whole nine yards. My heart sank. Our Vets came home scared for life seeing their buddy's and comrades cut in half by Vietcong booby traps, or blown apart by land mines,,, and can't forget about the pits with sharpened bamboo.
sorry off subject.

It is shame that someone go away upset but as you said... it is always a personal decision I really didn't see any reason for hurt feelings.. as I said.. I don't know what the insult was... However, this is what happened on SF.. a small group of people who could not abide by others having conversations where they did not agree managed to get the Admin to shut down the political forum.. because THEY didn't like the debate rather than simply not click on that section. That's too bad.

Well, Ellie you may be gone,you may just be lurking checking out the fallout from your grand departure.
I just want to point out that the people,(BLM) you disrespect so have a very legitmate point to make. Granted they are at times just reactionary, at times they are absolutely wrong with some of the folks they stand behind. However the fact remains that it is damn easy for a cop to shoot a black guy and walk away unscathed. They deserve respect for fighting their battle. Perspective is the difference between a terrorist and a freedom fighter.
