[Moderating] dougie, it’s against board rules to threaten other posters with physical violence. I know you know this, because I’ve mod noted you about it in the past. So this one is a formal warning.

That is the most ignorant comment yet!
When I found that quote–in which, incidentally, the last word WAS spelled “coleri”-- I was a sophomore in high school… The book was from the public library in Hermosa Beach; it was How to Cope With by Merrill Pollack. There was no “they” to restrict my access to any reading material; it you were as smart as you act you would have read above that I had no contact with the Witnesses until October 1970 and even then nobody restricted my access to public libraries then, or at any time since.
Mr./Ms. Moderator, if you’ve been reading others’ comments in this thread you would know that, by comparison, others’ remarks are far more vile and belligerent than mine are.
So unless there IS a double standard, as I suggested upthread, you may want to admonish the others who had spewed verbal garbage at me. Granted this is The BBQ Pit, but there is supposed to be a thin line even here between what will be tolerated and what will not, and I insist that I am not the only one who could be accused of crossing it.
Did anyone threaten physical harm unto you? What specific rules do you feel the other posters have broken? Miller specifically started which rule you broke. What rules did they break? There are not rules against being “vile” or “belligerent”. What rules were breached by others in this thread?
Look, dougie, if A B & C are against the rules, And your opponent says D and even E, and you respond with B! Who do you think will catch a warning? D and E aren’t against the rules. B IS. It didn’t matter that you think d and e are worse than B.
Then perhaps you should stay out of the Pit if it pisses you off that much. (We get it – you don’t like people criticizing your religion. Too bad. That’s allowed here.)
If it’s any consolation, I didn’t take it as a threat. I don’t want dougie banned from SDMB. It’s fun talking to somebody frozen in the mid 60’s and watching them struggle with culture shock.
