Richard, I know from experience that silence does not always indicate agreement. Sometimes it indicates that the post has not been read by the one who is being silent!
I don't like the hyper negative comments. And I really don't like the comments that suggest violence. For reasons I've already shared. As for FFL being a "vast, moral wasteland," we gotta be the change we wanna see. Otherwise we become a part of the violence.

Might as well enjoy (-: > > Yes, it's a "funny old life" when the moderator just lays back and does nothing about these kinds of attacks. Where I come from, silence usually indicates agreement. Rick, the owner of this site, really let me down - now I think a lot less of him than I used to. So, when MJ calls Nabby a "Nazi" we get no objections except from the one guy of the Jewish faith,which pretty much indicates to me the depth of the vast moral wasteland that is FFL. Go figure.
