If A dumps on B and I dump on A, it could be because;
1- I agree with B.
2- I disagree with A but not necessarily agree with B.
3- I don't have a view (yeah right ) but feel A's attack was unwarranted.
4- I made the mistake of thinking A's post should be logical.
5- I've misinterpreted what A and/or B meant because I've formed an opinion of who A and/or B are and what they stand for.

There's always a danger of reading into a post more than was intended, especially if it was posted by one of us schizos.

edit- I almost forgot, 6- I think A shops at Walmart.
