Thread Name: Another Public Apology
Subject: RE: Another Public Apology
Oh, moonchild, I was afraid of this. What I meant was that yes you have a right to express your opinion, even meanly (my opinion of the phrasing of your post). You WERE threatening, which is also against the law. It's called Assault. But so what? You're entitled, you were victimized (I am not arguing with your definition of being a victim, I consider you to have been a victim of a practical joke), I just don't think it's wise. Refusing to accept someone's apology is pretty much a definition of uncharitable - your word, which I merely repeated. But what I said was that you were BEING uncharitable, not that you WERE uncharitable. That was my opinion, unchanged by your being so upset about my using your words against you. I am sorry that what I said upset you. Notice I don't say I'm sorry that you got upset! Now that would be uncharitable, and also obnoxious, annoying, and pretty much guaranteed to really upset you. Which is not my intent.
