Ouch. Duck don't take it to heart. This is a rough and tumble place. People call each other out on stuff and occasionally hand out a cup of stfu. It's just the way the Cellar works.

Got to admire duck for jumping in with both of his/her webbed feet. :)

Her. *smiles* take a looksee at her profile;P

I do actually admire her for jumping in. But.....when jumping in and making quite bold, and some might venture agressive, posts she needs to expect to be tackled on them. BigV wasn't as hard on her as many here are when someone makes those kinds of statements.

But can't you challenge somebody's opinion, bold or not, without resorting to insults? Do the politicians in the congress sessions yell to each other "you're stupid" when they are discussing policy? Is civility impossible here?

It seems now americans and british are more concerned about not offending somebody than they are about wiping out radical terror.
is a little inflammatory?

Maybe it is but it isn't a personal attack on another person. If somebody posts an opinion I don't like on a subject I'm not going to respond by calling him stupid or questioning his intelligence. What would be the point?

What if you think what they posted was really dumb? :P

Give her a few weeks, she'll be flaming like a good'un
