Re: Its Good to Talk

Is this what Thatcher wanted, when she closed down all the hospitals like Brockhall?

We are meant to be caring for these people, not antagonising, and running circles round them.

That is, so long as what you type is worth the rest of us paying attention to, you have had your chance, you are obviously not worth spending time bringing to our standards, so go away and leave us to our world.

I would hate to go out of my way to insult you because so far you haven't said anything worth the criticism.
:pain30:

P.S. calm down or I'll get upset!:p

Firstly my response to your question was not aggressive- I may have mis read your question but did not respond in an aggressive manner. I think the only aggression on display has been directed at me.

If you speak for Accrington Web as your response claims then I would be more than happy to 'leave you to your world' as it is abundantly obvious that it is one lacking coherent thought or the ability to debate in any sensible manner. It would be such a pity tyhough as I have read a number of comments on various threads from individuals that I am pretty sure that you would not be speaking for.

Maybe I am wrong- maybe you are the voice of the web- the webmaster so to speak- and if so god help us. Your comment regarding common sense is totally beyond me- perhaps I dont have any then.

I think that my question and subsequent responses did follow a theme. It feels however that it was hijacked by individuals who want to flex their 'I've been here longer than you' muscles.

Perhaps I should close by asking the question therefore to others on the forum-
Are the comments posted here reflective of the views of forum members? If so I will gladly accept that this is not the place for me and bid farewell graciously

is this a joke about people with mental health problems? If so how proud you must be.

Re: Its Good to Talk

I believe in free speech. However, I would not defend someone else getting on a soapbox about something I disagreed intensly about or found detestable.

I mean really, how many would truly defend a pedafile shouting out the benefits of such a lifestyle in a public square (oh and you've got your children in tow)? Or, a lunatic terrorist/psycho/etc, ranting on about killing, maiming, hurting those within earshot. I don't believe I would stand in front of these folks and let the rocks hit me.

So, how many would really defend all speech? I will go out on a limb and say there is in fact some speech that I would not allow. A good personal example is flag-burning by american citizens.

If only you had succeeded.

I assume I am one of the idiots you are referring to. Could I ask- what specific aspect of what I have had to say do you regard as idiotic?

So far the only idiotic comment I have seen (and I accept that ones perception of idiocy is subjective) is Garindas insensitive joke about mental illness.

How offensive. I sincerely hope that neither yourself nor anyone close to you ever suffers from an illness of this nature. Or are you jusy trying to ba amusing- and if so shame on you.

As is often said to people of your ilk, don't slam the door on the way out.

If you are going to quote usually more accuarte to quote the whole sentence. My comment followed the question of whether your views are reflective of other forum users.

'As is usually said to people of your ilk' - What ilk is that then?

Were you a bully at school as well? or perhaps you were bullied and now its payback?

Couldnt you find a graphic showing genuflect?
Or is this a depiction of you begging for forgiveness for your abhorrent views regarding the mentally ill?
