Well now. I see I can still log-in, so I must not have been banished. I can only hope the reason is that Dave Weber is getting a bit fed up with crybabies and hypocrites too.
Since I last posted, we have Larry Brown commenting that this thread would have only been half of its' length had all of the posts been on topic.
However, that post by Larry was equally off topic, and so were all three posts made by his older brother King Brown. Actually, none of the posts since I was here yesterday was on topic. Yet strangely, Larry has no problem with that! It makes you think... if you actually have the ability to think instead of jumping to hypocritical and incorrect conclusions based upon personal differences. Right Buzz?
King Brown's comments were typical of what I've come to expect from him. These two in particular:
Pathetic is the correct word. They can't help it. Ignore the mean and mischievous. Don't feed their ignorance.
Labelling is unintelligent.
Um, I think King has himself once again engaged in labelling. Or labeling.
"Pathetic". "Mean". "Mischievous". "Ignorance". "Unintelligent". If that is not labeling, just what the hell is it? But King has labeled me similarly, and worse, countless times, yet he would never consider himself unintelligent or hypocritical or intellectually dishonest.
I happily admit that I myself have labeled King as Anti-Gun, Anti-2nd Amendment, Anti-NRA, etc., and I have provided dozens of quotes of his own words to back up my opinions of him. I understand why King doesn't like me, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I have reminded King many times that "Dishonesty is not Civility." His intellectual dishonesty is also disrespectful to everyone here. And his younger brother Larry will never admonish King for being off-topic. What conclusions can we draw from this??? Hmmmm.
One little thing that has dragged this thread out, and into off topic-land is this false accusation made about me by Larry Brown:
I've never held up my observations--nor my opinions, for that matter--as good science. The difference between us is that you do.
You remind me of a dog that's in serious need of a bark collar.
Right after he made this false comment on 2/28/16, I said, "Please show us where I ever held up either my observations, or my opinions for that matter-- as good science." I promised Larry I would continue to ask him to either show us proof, or that he should retract it, admit he lied about me, and apologize.
Larry would rather drag this into eternity and cry like a baby to Dave Weber to grant him cover than to ever admit he was wrong. I knew that's what would happen, and I was willing to risk getting banned from this BBS to make my point.
