It simply amazes me how immature some people can be. Can't have a simple debate without getting pissed because people disagree with their PoV. As I said, if you don't want a comment, don't post it in a public entry!
For background, if someone posts this article about college drinking:
http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1096516,00.html ...And follows it by complaining about how a certain alma mater of mine is making stricter alcohol policies, wouldn't you think the person is partially siding with lowering the legal drinking age to 18? The article's purpose is obviously to make an argument for that point, so wouldn't the reference be in that direction?
Then, if I were to comment-post some rebuttle facts (stating that the argument for changing the drinking age is a slippery slope and is not very valid), and reference my own article about how drinking in college was more prevelant pre 1984, when the drinking age was 18, would you go the length to:
1) Come back with an angry retort, and
2) Finally just delete all the comments made, yet keep the original post
???
Not saying this happened, but if it did...
"I am open to all viewpoints...as long as they agree with what I say."
Politics at its best, right there! This "hypothetical" person should be president!
AAANNDD...this future president decided to ban me from commenting on their journal entries! IMed me just to call me an "ass hole" too. I guess its now two words instead of one.
Way to prove me wrong by adding points to that maturity level. HA!
