I don't think TG would have found himself entirely unwelcome here, had he come over with some measure of an open mind and a level of tolerance. Seems like neither is likely, which is a shame.
I am not known for being especially liberal or likable, but I realize that this is not just MY board. I share the virtual world with others, and whatever I express, I will get it reflected back to me. Seems like that's what TG is getting now, and he is attempting to defend it as a matter of his "superior" inteliigence, rather than what is really is - a case of nose-in-the-air, holier-than-all-of-you-heathen attitude on his part.
I did have respect for him. But his mindset is changing my mindset pretty quickly.

that's exactly what my problem was, Nancy. I don't have a problem with mods doing their jobs. I DO have a problem with being talked down to. The "Hall Monitor" sash doesn't give you special powers or make you better than anyone else, and those who believe it does are the very people who don't need that power.

"Hall Monitor"....cute. I was recalling my days at elementary school , with the safety patrol wonks. Boy, were those kids mean when they put on those orange sashes. And if you DARED to think about crossing the street at the wrong momen, they could whip off a sash and beat you to a pulp with it, using the badge end for extra effect.
