Am I the only one who is really getting a bit ticked by all of those who are posting things only to get us all pumped up and argue? I totally understand the value of debate and I am fine with that. But it is really getting to me when some people only post and make comments in order to make the rest of us mad and upset. Am I alone in this thought?

you just don't like me because you disagree with me about the DP. You don't even know what I am like. I do have a few anti friends on this board who I believe understand that i am not trying to stir up trouble. why would I? also, I have NEVER once attacked anyone personally. before you insult my character, which i am sure you did by insinuating that you are not like me, you should try to be somewhat objective. Again, I only claimed that people would watch executions on TV based on the huge turnouts public executions have gotten in the past. I never posted that i thought that is a good thing.

Ok first of all I have gone toe to toe with other pro's on this board, so I have no persona lissue with you. This post was not totally about you, there are others as well. No, I have no issue with your stance on the DP, I don't agree with it but that doesn't mean that I have an issue with you because of it. Go for it, debate the topic. What I have a problem with is posts (by you as well as others) that are just done to get the majority of people on this site upset. Let's really look at some of the things that have been posted in the past week. Some of them are really only said to get to people. And it also gets me when people only post things like: I can't wait to see what excuses will be made now. (That was not a direct quote and was not meant to be. It was meant as a general statment to encompass many different posts). Some people need to remember that we have loved ones there, going through this. If I have 'thin skin' because I get upset when certain things are made out to be like a game or a spectator sport by some well than be it. I just can't stay quiet about it anymore.

Yeah as long as you remember that these guys are more than a number to most of us and you can't treat them that way. And like I said this post was not completely about you.

I think that some people get offended from the smallest things. I thought I was bad lol . Sometimes you can't even make a respectful statement with out someone taking it the wrong way. But I do agree with JoJo, there are some people on here who can really be cruel sometimes.

I get offended when antis talk about how the poor inmates are treated. That was not meant to start anything either..if you can talk about what you get offended by, why cant we?

You can talk about whatever you want. My point is that it shouldn't be here, on a site that is a support site. Talk all you want but the time to stop upsetting people should be now

Thanks Catskillz. My only point is that this should really stop and if it isn't maybe it should be me that leaves. I know if I do that I will be doing exactly what they want but I am sick and tired of defending myself and my position on a site that isn't about that. Like I said I can take a debate and I know that is good for some to learn and form an opinion. But when Bobby is in the last stages of his appeals and we are going through so much that I (like many many others) need a place to come and vent. I know that is what Tracy wanted to have here, a place for us to be understood and for some to learn. But I am starting to feel like I am doing nothing but defending myself. It is starting to be a big load of drama.

If you read my posts on the pro board, you will certainly find that I firmly support the DP. You will also find that I never insult anits or call them names. nor do I insult the familes and friends of people who are executed. Yeah, i do sound shocking at times over there, but never do I attack any one but killers personally.
