Cayo Hueso:
yeah, I think most of us get that.  What I don't get is why all these anons are trying to keep whatever perceived feud there is between Frod and Ginger.  THEY seem to have come to an understanding.  I've disagreed with Frod pretty vehemently before, but I gotta give him credit.  He can state his point of view AND see someone else's.  If Frod and Ginger can agree to disagree, why the need to provoke more fighting?
Hold on, my friends, to the Constitution and to the Republic
for which it stands. Miracles do not cluster, and what has
happened once in 6000 years, may not happen again. Hold on to
the Constitution, for if the American Constitution should fail,
there will be anarchy throughout the world.

It's about an even playing field, and Ginger needs to be taken back a few pegs every once in a while because she often lets her emotion drive the outcome of these little battles, which should have been discussions, if this board were being moderated responsibly.

None of this invalidates your very astute point, which is noted.

Cayo Hueso:
I appreciate the politeness.  

Even if that is true, which I don't believe, these "discussions" don't seem to be serving any purpose other than to trash someone who has already been trashed.  Your position on the Carey situation has been duly noted.  All of what you say MAY VERY WELL BE TRUE...I have no opinion one way or the other as I do not have enough info, BUT...all I have seen Ginger do is state that she thinks Carey made a mistake, but that Ginger doesn't believe Carey had evil intentions.  If you think Carey DID have evil intentions...fine...that may very well be true, but again I'll ask...if Ginger and Frod have resolved this and if THEY were the ones in the conflict in the first place...what useful purpose is there in trashing Ginger???  I don't think I have EVER seen an instance where Ginger has used her "power" as an administrator to slant the views of these boards.  It just seems that all this energy spent on trashing her could be better spent elsewhere.  There are REAL enemies out there to destroy.

We ought to be grateful that our government monopoly schools are such a failure. If today's 18 year olds could do arithmetic, they'd be out buying enough rope to hang everybody over 40.

OK, but the "power" isn't necessarily caught-up in who owns the board (although that's part of it).  Ginger knows she is well liked by this board's contributors and when you have a following (there are Fornits groupies here-look at poor GregFl), you have an obligation not to make statements to people (that everyone can see) which are tantamount to and result in the same group abuse they were subjected to as survivors from these sick programs.  Ginger might try a private message, once in a while, and she may get better results.

Cayo Hueso:
So people who have friends here or a large following should censor what they post???  Is that what you're saying?
Karate is a form of martial arts in which people who have had years and years of training can, using only their hands and feet, make  some of the worst movies in the history of the world.
