So sad that this type of thing is still happening, even if it is in America's deep south.

I have no problem with AOG - we both get a little get up, but it passes.

I would like to think he has calmed down from the last spat we had - I do hope so.

Can I bring a note for PE please - my sciatica is playing up.

AH...I hope that you have both calmed down !

I know mikey, but I am getting a little tired of always accepting to forget bygones, but then he will get those certain moods on him and he starts off again, calling me ill manned etc etc.

If he continues to hold these pre-set ideas about me, then there is nothing more that can be done.

I don't hold any 'pre-set ideas' about you I assure you.

Since it is you today who has been bandying about remarks being judged harsh enough to be deleted, maybe you should meet me in the middle?

No apologies requested, or required - let's just move on.

deal?

No you can't, you are becoming too much of a 'pain'.

[RandyMarsh]

surprised you have not posted the video of the poor white kids being attacked by black youths AOG, have you seen it?, it is shockingly awful.

Someone's pre set idea that your OP was dead in the water (1st Poster) was rather hasty and erroneous as usual.
87 answers and 5 pages. Not bad for an OP with no legs!! :-)

[andy-hughes]

retrocop - that was an opinion about an OP - nothing to do with the Poster - can't see where you would find any confusion - ?

[retrocop]

I am not confused.It was clearly a pre-set idea about the OP as I just said from the start and was erroneous wasn't it?

[andy-hughes]

retrocop - //It was clearly a pre-set idea about the OP as I just said from the start and was erroneous wasn't it? //

No - and yes.

If I had a 'preconceived idea' about any AB'er, I would not be shy to mention it, or acknowledge it if challenged.

It is your opinion, but your opinion is incorrect.

///I don't hold any 'pre-set ideas///
If I had just posted that from your quotation you would of accused me of being selective and not showing the full statement you made.
I stand by the fact that you showed three pre-set ideas about the topic of the OP and again you were erroneous in that assumption.Stop wriggling.
I haven't bothered to look.Do you actually contribute many OP's to this site or do you just sit back and snipe at others?

[andy-hughes]

retrocop - I don't really know what your problem is with me - but as far as I am concerned, this to-and-fro between us is adding fuel to the argument expressed earlier by others that this is simply sniping and distraction from the OP.

If you disagree with my views, that's fine, but to constantly put your own erroneous spin on what I say is not only futile, it is detrimental to the spirit of proper debate.

I suggest you park you personal issues and move on - I am not going to continue to argue my points with you - it is clearly yourself who has the preconceived ideas.

It is racism.

Not sure of you can generate a debate out of this - what is there to say?

Is it worth me reading all these posts, or has there been nothing said?

[ummmm]

Not much, Talbot, very few have answered the OP.

[sp1814]

Oh balls.

Doncha just hate it when you only see an interesting thread after everyone else has had their say and the 'embers are dying'.

[anotheoldgit]

ummmm

/// Not much, Talbot, very few have answered the OP. ///

And who started all that?

Well hello sp I was wondering when you would put in an appearance.

May I suggest that you get your bellows out?

[andy-hughes]

AOG - ///// Not much, Talbot, very few have answered the OP. ///

You credit me with powers I simply do not possess.

If you seriously think that me suggesting that this OP would not generate a debate has stifled it in any way, clearly you are incorrect.

Not only do I have that level of influence over my fellow AB'ers - nor would want it - but as this will be post 99, clearly I was incorrect in my assumption - and happy to acknowledge that.
