FRED: Here is your post on the Thatcher Obit thread 16 apr 13

"Michael Grosvenor Myer has accused me of issuing some kind of "apparent invitation to shoot Jewish refugees ['useful for target practice']". ...
That is an outrageous lie. Unlike Mr Grosvenor Myer, I spend a considerable part of my life fighting racism and fascism and all forms of bigotry …
I am not going to waste my time demanding an apology from this creep. I shall just warn him that if we ever come face to face, he will be extremely sorry."

My reply ~~ "Fred ~~ I withdrew that statement, admitting to having confused two discourses 15 apr 1011pm. Mixed you up with Jim, can't remember why. Sorry!!!
I should nevertheless appreciate not being threatened at my age with physical violence, if you wouldn't mind too much. Don't think I should be a match for a young fellow like you at the age of 81."

You made no reply to that to deny the threat of physical violence, clearly implied by that "if we ever come face to face, he will be extremely sorry." You certainly never even hinted that you had meant verbals only; which would not have made much sense anyhow for reasons given in my last post.

If that was not a threat of physical violence, then it will do very well till a threat of physical violence comes along.
