For the record, I think Leo and I are making two completely different points (though attributing the source to the same cause), so don't intertwine what I said with the point he is trying to make. The instances I've been talking about aren't relevant to the instances he is talking about. My reading of what he is saying is that when he's makes arguments of a certain type/method he is told they aren't fair, or aren't appropriate, or people are insulted by it; then they go on to make arguments of the same type and when he points this out he's told it is somehow different.

My point is that there two recent instances (in my view) of direct name calling and they were handled differently (and I don't mean moderately, just generally).

We are both attributing these different situations to the same cause of the political slant on this board making one side more palatable than the other.


Shiny taco boobies (sadly, searching that phrase at google images does not produce anything comedic).
