Bulldog, I am sorry to hear the trigger about thoughts of your father and power issues. I have similar feelings but don't wish elaborate right now.
It's not that I agree with how you went about your argument (I don't even know the whole story to be able to form an opinion or comment), but my post was more about the way 'uncivility' is handled here (and also how it is defined-though not the point of my comment).
It concerns me that it could have adverse psychological effects and be harmful to people. It also personally effects me, as I have stated, and we are encouraged to 'report' posts that we deem uncivil. It seems like an uncivil tactic to me. I thought of avoiding reading the 'rephrase' posts, but at the same time, it's confusing to me what is considered civil and uncivil--so it seems a forum member has to read those types of posts to understand how the forum works.
I do hope you stay here-I appreciate your posts!
