You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
Please, this is not the kind of place something this intensely personal should even be mentioned. It is a disservice to the victims and their families. Have some decency.
ReplyDeleteBefore I comment, I did as you asked and held a moment of silence.
ReplyDeleteBut Let's pause another moment for the people who were killed in the latest Earthquake. Then pause a moment for the people who were killed in the latest tornado. Let's pause a moment for the victims of the landslide. Let's pause a moment....and the list goes on and on...and if we pause enough moments we take Bernie right off the air and relegate his blog into oblivion. Now that's a pleasant thought.
The trolls demonstrate the kind of people they are.
ReplyDeleteDamned if you try to be nice and damned if you don't. Trolls will be trolls.
ReplyDeleteJim Gregory has escaped, Bernie be careful
