The alternative to being a bit sweary is to take some of this stuff seriously.

That would be soooo wrong. Far better to point and laugh. Mind you, there seems to be a split in the thoughts of Musket on that score. One Musket shouts at the source of bigotry, another laughs at it and poor old original Musket does whatever I think a post deserves. For instance..

Yes Joe. You keep telling us how you fight the people who think differently about your faith than you do. However, I can only comment on your track record on these threads.

I reckon of those Mudcat members who contribute regularly either side of the line, I know about half a dozen through folk clubs and have met or seen as a one off about the same number again. Being only human, I am sure that what I know about people I factor into my opinion of their posts. Daarn Sourrff Musket knows some I don't and McMusket lives too far from civilisation if you ask me.

The rest? Well I only have what you post to go on. Same as you only have what I put. To put Steve's point about me in perspective, I agree. Musket, any of us, fights fire with fire. Social media is not the place to be subtle. The only people who would get that are not the ones who should re read their own posts.
