an apology is owed

It wasn't bad enough that you all condone a "man" accosting a woman in the street, Buddah doubling down on it, now you call a woman one of the most vile names in the English language? This site really is a place for old men to whine and moan as the world around them changes. really abhorrent behavior. You all are showing your true colors.

Mercy middiemom, what happened to you to make you so bitter toward the opposite sex? You demonstrate a harsh hatred for men, even more so than your average women's lib crusader.

Now, if the men were to have said the same thing in relation to "young white women" whining/moaning, you would be the first in line to spew some vial crap about that but, apparently, because you are a woman (this could work for a minority as well), you think you are special and have free speech rights that the rest of us don't have. Mercy, are you mistaken. Still, some of us don't buy into the new thinking of "special rights for special groups within our society including women and minorities"

Go out and earn respect if you want respect. Be judged on merit rather than crutches like skin color or gender. Constantly berating "old white men" isn't going to get that respect. Your comments indicate you have no respect for older people who came before you and who have put in their time, especially older "white men". Do you feel the same way towards your dad and grandfather? Just curious. How about "old white veterans"? Do you hate them as well?

Granted, some of the comments on this forum, even ones that I have posted in the past, are not civil in nature and shouldn't have been posted, but, then again, you are not helping matters when you yourself, name call and create a hostile forum environment. You, nor I, can accuse those who post abrasive comments here if we ourselves are doing the same thing as a response.

We are all guilty of this practice at one time or another. I am a poster child for abrasion here and fully admit it. Trying to be more diplomatic but is hard at times due to the anger created with any given subject. I realize there is a more pleasant way of communicating my ideas but have failed at times to abide by that practice.

"It wasn't bad enough that you all condone a "man" accosting a woman in the street"

Again, "man" accosting a woman"??? What was reported on prior posts was that the man had, at most, a heated conversation with you concerning property. That is what we know. I see accosting being of a physical nature which has not been reported here. Since when does a conversation, even a heated one, measure up to being "accosted"? Seems to be an embellished remark on your part doesn't it? Is this remark some added drama on your part?

We "all don't condone a physical accosting situation of a "woman in the street". No one would. But, as reported, it doesn't appear that this happened.
The man was apparently very angry at you and he voiced his opinion to get his message across. You seem to have taken his angry remarks and labeled it as "accosting" and played the gender card as well. The gender card will not work as the women of this country wanted equal rights and received them years ago with the women's lib marches. You have your rights. You are EQUAL but not SPECIAL in society. You shouldn't get special preferred treatment because of gender and minorities shouldn't get special and preferred treatment because of their nationality or skin color. Both must stop using this tactic to gain favored status as we are all suppose to be equal. Not so sure that is the case nowadays though. The "old white men" of this society will not bow down and become subservient due to gender or minority demands. No need to. We are all equal... remember? Those with "gender special" issues and those who have "minority's are special" thoughts need to lose those thoughts as they are only causing further divides in society and really wasting their time.

"You all are showing your true colors."

You as well mom. Works both ways.

You are 100% her. seems you like to delete things as well 

amy (middiemom,Bratsmom,Fenwickmom) is only bipartisan because her ass fits on both sides of the aisle 

I’ve never deleted any posts here, Nelson.

so--if redbengals is not Mr.Self(honestly never thought that it was), and middiemom is not Ms.Vitori---then who are these freaky people and why are they going back and forth this way??? Why do they and anyone else care and keep this going? I know that the downtown area ladies keep constant drama going....

Someone please explain...
Thanx!

middlemom (Ms Vitori or Ms Vitori closest friend)

Please explain to the public what is going on with your $56,000 tax lien.

Have you worked out a payment plan?
Going to challenge lien?
Going to jail?

As an elected official and public figure you owe the citizens and taxpayers you are sworn to serve an explanation.

after re-reading this thread(why did I do that?)maybe middiemom owes mr.Self a very serious apology?

lol—not sure how many times under how many headings that u taunted mr.Self(50+?) in what probably wasn’t his our your conflict—still not sure where either of you fit in to this ugliness. Your cauldron has been stirred enough—hardly by this end—was anything solved or settled?
Insults,intimidation and name-calling seldom solve anything.

A recurring reminder to all of us

And a community reminder to be ready for the opening of House of Brews darts bar on central ave—this will be the nicest and newest facility in the city!
Also Chris Lester and Cecil Delloma Friday evening @ Browns Run where EVERY Friday is a happening!

Let’s all support one another and the entire community!

typical pot calling the kettle....never any sexism accusations towards ms.moon or any wimmin prior---honestly screen names cure most of that besides it is the message more than the messenger imo and this whole blow up occurred far from this site until someone blew it up on facebook--tis ok though--most males aware of it say they will stasy out of these ladies businesses if that is how they feel...

on to more important things---anyplace down there doing gift-wrapping for a fee or donation to a worthy cause other than DMI or the hysterical district?

fair enough mom---I didn't like the personal shots either and hope that we get better and move on to positive things....redbengal has it tough enough rooting for the reds and bungles--enough to drive anyone to the brink...and I have heard many times that there is a coven down on central(not joking though it is humorous)

back to the important subject------giftwrapping!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
