I wish that they would call themselves, "Atlantians," since that would really rock out that place.

With the beating the Atlanta members take, that isn't saying much. Though I didn't realize there was a hierarchy of Atlantans.

I'm not sure that's appropriate behaviour over a warm corpse either.

Well played.

All the cool kids know there is only one way to refer to the residents of the ATL:

I like whnay. lee14406 I have no particular feelings about. edinatlanta is like a wannabe conne. gnatty8 actually willingly moved to the ATL.

Honorary Atlantans don't figure into my hierarchy.

I say make the punishment fit the crime - change his title to POS.

I squirreled the "BHO is Mao" thread because it had just turned into an annoying pissing contest between Piobaire and Paraiso.

Paraiso is a moron. If people are going to have strong opinions, they should at least be readable.

You do understand you are talking about SF, yes?

I'll just toss him on ignore. From being told to shove sausages up ******, etc., I thought I was pretty modulated.

I think AF is a nice guy (and I've met him IRL), but it's unfortunate to me that he made that statement. That said, I thought Fuuma made a really good point later in the thread, and I think it's a fair argument against penalizing AF. Moreover, I don't see how not sharing the popular reverence for the dead should be a bannable offense.

If someone had asked AF what he thought I would say he's at no fault for expressing his opinion. However, the nice thing about an internet forum is that we can simply move on to the next thread. There was no reason AF had to come into that thread and say something nasty; he could have let the Dems have their circle jerk. The fact that he made a point of posting is what is bothersome to me, as he was essentially going out of his way to piss on Murtha's grave.

Is anyone else disturbed by the continuing calls to ban someone just because they say something that upsets you? I think what AF said was pretty disgusting, but I think there ought to be a modicum of free speech here. Just because he states an opinion you don't like shouldn't be a reason for banning. I pretty much felt the same way about some of the calls for AThingforCashmere and some of the others. Shame on me for not speaking up then, but I'll speak up now.

IMO AF should be (and has been) pretty well excoriated for what he said by everyone on the forum, but should not be banned.

Not to say that there shouldn't be standards...I just don't think we should draw the line at offensive opinions. Free speech and all that.
