Is the use of fake names and anonymous remarks by posters actually counter-productive to adult discussion of important national or state issues?

Mod there is no logic with these brain washed "people" !

Kunec said-"How many people leave their homes in this country, every year, and run into the wrong person, never to be seen again"? And next says"How many of those folks ran into an "assault weapons" carrier? I venture to say "NONE". But they're dead.........." Well, there have been enough killed to suggest you may be skirting the facts.Even given an innocent ignorance of facts, your logic leaves the field.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

fred, Happy St. Patricks day to you and everyone on the forums!

BUT THEN, there are those that will resort to logic. They will challenge you to compare the number of people that have been killed with (what you call) "assault weapons" in the entire history of the United States against the numbers of slaughtered civilians of country's who's leaders disarmed them, then decided they didn't 'like them' any longer.

How many people leave their homes in this country, every year, and run into the wrong person, never to be seen again?

How many of those folks ran into an "assault weapons" carrier? I venture to say "NONE". But they're dead and you bleeding-heart Liberals just want Obama not to have to suffer a rhetorical defeat. GOD knows, it could bring down his pathetic governance 'house of cards'!

Frankly some will always seek to be "special " by claiming to be "abused, harassed, stalked, etc" , but the truth is they are just weak-minded and cant debate on a level playing field so they revert to the tactic of seeking sympathy with others by claiming they are being treated unfairly but thats just a cop out because they dont have anything valid to add without looking foolish!

Wrongriki , you are all that is wrong with things like these forums with your constant barrage of right -wing propaganda and bullsh^t ! Then complaining that your being picked on when all you post is debunked and refuted ! Since you insist on being the victim you should look that up on your right-wing websites !!When you persist in this mis-guided strategy of victimhood you should at least see if you qualify for a mental disability !

Exactly dumbas$ ,“A "Forum Troll" is a person who posts outrageous message to provoke people to respond. The Forum Troll delights in sowing discord within a forum. A troll is someone who inspires flaming rhetoric, someone who is deliberately controversial, baiting and pulling people into a "flaming" discussion. Flaming discussions usually end with name calling, a flame war and at best a locked thread or in extreme cases a deleted thread.”

““ Trolls divert online discussions into non-productive, off-topic venues. They pose as part of a community only to disrupt it. Trolling is anti-social behavior. ””

““ Some of the techniques trolls use to accomplish their objectives are: Pithy put-downs, Name-calling and insults, Ad hominem attacks that try to negate an opinion by alleging negatives about the person supporting it, Impugning other's motives, Emotional rants, Bullying and harassment, Completely off-topic posts, Posting inaccurate "facts" ””

“when i wrote "hopefully things may settle out and you can continue to post your thoughts without the bitter responses that you get." i was wrong.” . . . . . “frankly some will always be protected and allowed to do as they wish. i strongly suggest you and others wear out the report abuse link until it either gets results or just post what they post and change whom it is directed toward. then you will find out if there is truly selective favoritism associated with this site.” ~ luvthesouth
