I just feel frustrated because I've been very careful avoid expressing an opinion about whether the ruling was a good one, and yet I get hit with strawman arguments as if I had. I suppose I should have reacted more gracefully but I'm 4 days form unemployment and my daughter is over in Germany right now and I have daddy worry... So my fuse is shorter than it ought to be. So sorry to hear about your job and your daughter. I'll remember you in my prayers. Stress gives us all shorter fuses.

Sister Sellers and I are missionaries at the Denver ERC, and two days ago, she "rang the bell" eight times! Her clients found work! We really do know how to make a job search work effectively. Even I've rung it several times this month. ('Course, our ERC is the best in the country. We have the highest job placement record, and we're a lot better than most commercial agencies, too.) Elder LeSellers I haven't, but I will now. Thanks for the advice!

I can tell you first hand that I truly don't think Unixknight is hostile/angry or anything of the sort. He's not "anti-police"-he's just a concerned citizen who is also on the front line in this case. I'm very passionate myself for the truth, but he termed my passion as 'hostile'. And he does seem very hostile to the truth.. The truth was, there was no evidence.. That's what the Judge said, in effect. He takes objection to our appreciation of that. He would have us laud the Judge were he to find guilt based on no evidence. I can't understand why he would do such a thing.. But now he mentions emotional turmoil as an excuse.. Ok. dc

What did I say or do to you to justify talking to me like this? If you can't handle your views being challenged then grow up before you post again. But hostility to the truth and personal attacks from you are ok?. Why would you think that? Why would you want anyone to laud the Judge if he found guilt based on no evidence?. That's pure hostility to the truth in the name of what?. Political correctness? And you sure don't seem to like your point of view being challenged, do you? dc

I'm fine with having my views challenged. What you did was build strawmen.

How about telling me I should grow up because I don't agree with your politically correct point of view?. How about calling me hostile because I don't agree wtih the witch hunt. That was uncalled for. I understand you have posted an excuse. dc
estradling75 Posted June 26, 2016 Report Posted June 26, 2016 Thread closed... Personal attacks are against the site rules.. If you feel someone has broken the site rules you are to report and let the mods deal with it.
