Default Re: 9/11 respect

I've been watching this thread.....very carefully.
As it has gone so far from respect I shall now add this. I executed my right to remain silent, due to the nature of the thread, and my personal thoughts about the subject.I shall say now, Berlin's thoughts aren't far from my own,but that's for another day

. As far as the thread is concerned I think those in green would perhaps have been better suited to remaining on the fence, and impartial, keeping their thoughts silent, because of the intended nature of the thread. Instead,this in this circumstance has given a nice go sign for a bun fight, in a place it has no place.
I'm no moderator, but surely to god lead by example.


Taken me days to say that. You are all a disgrace,each one of you for joining in,and I'd be surprised if Joe wasn't ashamed of you all too. There's reasons why I've been quiet over this, but in this instance, I will go with my gut and say something. Shame on you all.regardless of your opinions of the subject.

So burn me in hell for being honest!

You joined in to call shame for joining in.

I know.....hence......burn me in hell for being honest!
I wasn't going to join in at all, but this thread just doesn't look nice, which was its intention.
The threads gone so far from the OP, its sad. I'd like to see it stop.......and that doesnt mean locked either!

Agree with Berlin.

Why does he need to be excused for saying this? You don't like it? fine. Personally, I find your posts Nauseating but I don't expect you to apologise.

I've been watching the thread but not posting.

I dont like the inference that as moderators we should not join in a discussion or debate on a controversial subject. This is a discussion forum after all. Not much point being on it if you cant take part in discussion is there.

There should be some separation allowed by everybody on when we make a comment as ourselves and when make comment or take action as a moderator. That doesnt seem to be happening at the moment which is change from how things have been in the past.

What I'll do when I go home at lunchtime. Is split this thread off. I'll either tack the discussion onto the thread started by GruntyGiggles the other day or split the conversation off into a new thread and leave this thread for what it was intended in for the first place.

No, I wasn't infering moderators should not discuss controversial subjects fizz....however, you have understood my feeling, that it should be seperate from this intended thread.

Your recommendation should be welcomed as a positive result.

Because whether you agree with his sentiments or not it's still very rude.

Your perspective is that it's very rude. You don't seem to grasp that alternative perspectives exist outside of your own model of the world.
