Attitude behind a post is, I think, usually fairly easy to discern. I agree with the posters who have asked that if we want to respond to a specific post we actually read what the other person has said first. It seems a reasonable request.

Bushites seem to be the worst offenders at shooting from the lip without reading what came before. But, unfortunately, it seems they are not alone in this.

It makes communication, let alone debate, not easy.
