Kathy,
I know we've had this conversation before but I will try again: not attacking someone is not the same as supporting them.

Agree, which is why I asked a question about how you feel on the one issue instead of making an assumption of how you feel. You are not obligated to answer the question, but I see no harm in asking it. (See above question to District 4 voters.)

Sativa called Tiffany's mother a whore and claimed she was illegitimate. That was an all time low for Punaweb, and diminishes this forum as a community resource.

Carol, my outrage was all used up when I 1) saw Discuss Truth call RJ a toothless former crackhead with no evidence of that, and 2) saw no outrage on the forum other than from Sativa and our eloquent and fair-minded hikatz.

I do see outrage against Sativa's response, so is Tiffany in some special untouchable social class, whereas perpetuating the stereotype of drug addiction against a woman commonly perceived as African American is not considered vile or a low blow? (Note to be clear: RJ doesn't self-identify as A-A, but others assume that.)

Or is it that toothless people are fair game? Why let the remark about RJ go and fixate on what Sativa said, even though the insult to RJ came first?

Do you support that sort of vile attack on someone as justified and appropriate just because you think they are an unethical politician?

My support is not the issue; our Supreme Court has ruled it is a part of our political process that is protected and even desirable. (Hustler Magazine v. Falwell, look up the rationale for the SC's decision.)

I didn't make any comments on that exchange for the reason that I didn't want to play into Discuss Truth's move to take the topic away from voter fraud via ad hominem attacks. I am only responding here to your direct question.

To me, all the personal attacks from whatever side have no logical bearing on the underlying issue of alleged fraud.

Ed to add: thanks for the response to my post, kalakoa. I'm not going to make a response post because I just want to let your opinions stand on their own, but I do want to thank you for taking time and going down that list one by one.
