Jack the Sailor and Ron Davies - you are not paying attention to what myself and others have been trying to say.   We are not defending Martins actions or words, we are holding a mirror up and trying to show you that you are using the same tactics, often the same style of words, thread-baiting, first strike postings that you are up in arms about.   You claim Martin is "ruining" Mudcat, yet you fill up volumes of threads with similar assaults (style, not content) and see nothing wrong with that. Foolestroope is comfortable to say "I take full responsibility for acting like a total insensitive arsehole (and thoroughly enjoying it in those circumstances) in the circumstances I have described" yet the prevailing attitude is that everyone is appalled and looking for Martin Gibsons head on a platter. It is hypocritical and Jeri summed it up perfectly - you have become a Mudcat Lynch Mob.

I stand by my prior post - we are all Martin Gibsons, and sorry to disappoint Ron Davies but that is not liberal guilt.
