Auntie Mel I was making reference to my post In which I agreed with Lou when he pointed out a post which he felt was uncivil toward him.
In my post afterward "for cryin in the sink'"
I said that I had made for more heavily veiled
"hypothetical" statements than the one Lou took issue with and I had been blocked for them.
However the one Lou found hurtful was given
the green light by Dr. Bob.Is that the double standard you were speaking of? Questioning whether or not Lou recieves recieve equal treatment because of his posting style? That's what I took from your post but I've obviously been confused the last few days. I don't believe he recieved fair treatment in this case for sure.
But I'd also have to say that blocks have often been seen as erratic and I don't believe I recieved fair treatment for a long time.. so I couldn't really guess what the rationale is.
