Gosh, this'd be done better over a beer.
>>Actually, too quick to jump on a deliberately placed trigger IMHO.
I am too quick to jump on a deliberate trigger? Why place a trigger deliberately? I entirely don't get that. Is it like an amusing spectator sport or something? Don't you feel that must devalue everything you say if you are prone to that sort of thing? That is not a behaviour I understand.
Neither do I try to second guess it. These comments will stand long after you and I have lost interest. Who knows what impressionable person will come mooching along, not knowing either of us, not knowing the group, not being a member, but still read the comment. That one thing is why I dislike, and rarely actually do, leave comments standing.
I am not a "whatever" chap, or someone who ignores stuff. If it is is wrong, then it is wrong. Whether you posted it sincerely, cynically or as part of a game does not change the fact that the comment is standing in view..
>>Do you actually believe that the comments made here are 100% serious and reflect the actual person posting?
Actually yes, I do. I've not really ever thought about that before, but now you ask me that is exactly my assumption and exactly what I think.
I assure you it's always the case for me. If you judged my character solely by what and how I post here, you probably wouldn't be too far from the truth. Good or bad.
>>So in one breath, I can say the cops stink because of this or some other incident easily found on the interweb and in another, that cops deserve medals because a squad of them ran towards the danger, have to clear up after a murder etc.
Not my approach. The s*** cops aren't wonderful because a good cop did something and the great cops aren't s*** because a bad cop did something.
To take it toward the other post we're in at the moment, would you dream of saying "black people are...." because a black person did something bad? I seriously doubt it. You would realise how ridiculous that would be.
And that was my objection to your comment, and previous similar comments.
Be clear, I judge you by them as you no doubt judge me by mine. If you don't like the judgement, then don't make the comment. The responsibility for the comment is yours, not mine. Ditto the other way around had I said something, of course.
