Sometimes the moderator should be moderated. If it is unclear who I am talking about then read some of Bruno's threads.

rabbel rouser? Really?
You can say many things about me, some good, some bad, but I don't think you'll find me posting insults.
You may disagree with me. Fine. I disagree with many people as well. There is no need to let your 'blood boil'. If I present a post without yelling and shouting, there is no need for you so get angry.

More to the point, what did I say in this thread that gets your blood boiling?

Bruno, we have spoken before and when it became clear that we disagreed, I backed out of the thread rather than continue to hijack the thread. Since it is obvious you are creating anger in others, I would like you to consider not making numerous statements that you know will inflame others. For anyone who would like to know which thread I am refering to it was dealing with Libya.

I am not suggesting you silence him...but at the same time you should not silence either side. I believe Bruno is a good man, but I bet I am not the only person who finds him intentionally abrasive and argumentive.

Intentionally abrasive? Because I don't agree with you and have a different opinion? Should I complain every time someone is arguing a point I disagree with?

No one can KNOW what a person's intent is when they make a post, one can only interpret and assume. Personally, I don't see any reason to assume that a forum admin would intentionally make a statement to anger others, and, while I will freely admit that I do not personally know Bruno, I do not see that as something Bruno would do.

Please feel free to express your thoughts an opinions, but please keep them about the topic at hand, not the people making the posts.

Personally, I enjoyed Bruno's posts. They bring a wider perspective to the discussion, and I find great value in that.

I would challenge anyone to show my statements in this thread are mean spirited or meant to make anyone mad. On the contrary if you re-read my statement, you will see it was intended to stop comments that are intended to provoke anger in others.

This is an extremely proud day for America and if anyone wants to make inflammatory statements...they might consider waiting a few days. If I am censored for this posting, I would welcome any private messages that can honestly show that I am wrong...I will actually listen to your response and consider what you say.

Technically -and please don't look at this as a way for me to control this discussion- according to the rules, we can prett much do whatever we want, for whatever reason we want if we think it is a good idea. I think this is what gugi was refering to.

That is the technicality. It's not like we go about silencing people we disagree with.
Really. Yes, I may be argumentative sometimes, but there is no need to get angry because I disagree with something.

Look at it from the other side: if Americans are arguing againt my opinion, I don't get angry either, right? I either present counter arguments or I leave or agree to disagree.

That ends a chapter I wish had not happened!

Just to make sure this point does not get lost: I already mentioned a couple of times that I think it is good that OBL is dead. And I posted a reply to Jimmy about a tangential topic.

What did I post that was so bad that it makes someone's blood boil?

@DCasper: I am writing you a PM to take the discussion between us offline and keep it there if you agree with that.

Gentlemen, let's please stop the back and forth and get back on track.

Yea, what Dylan said. Don't make me call the locksmith out here to put a deadbolt on the thread.

Enough talk about rules and locking ok. Let's just keep the discussion going.
