After reading GG bashing on the online news page, I felt the need to tell you a bunch of us are glad to have you in our lives. I'm not a doctor, but I diagnose a great deal of constipation cases among these folks.

I learned a long time ago posting on that site was not good for your health. Why go back if you get beat up all the time???

I am, and I'm tempted to prescribe a series of high colonic enemas for them

Maybe I'm too new to understand, but if someone hates "the developer" that much, why live here? And when GG points out all the good "the developer" has done, why bash her? It just seems the yardstick for some of these people is what THEY like, not what has worked for the overwhelming majority of residents.

Now back to coyotes........

just checked it. Looks like the comments on illegal parking

But read at your own peril. Then see me about those enemas

Plus, they screen your posts. Too negative to original topic, never shows up.

Did I say that those who agree with what "the developer" does are likewise not entitled to voice their opinion.
What I said was "If they hate "the developer" THAT MUCH (meaning on just about every issue and aspect of life in TV, like some do), then why live here?"
And I know that you are not defending vicious personal attacks against a lovely lady who was just expressing her opinion.

As far as liking everything that has happened on the national political scene goes, I'll be expressing MY opinion in November.

Rant over, friends again?

ANY complaint/criticism regarding the developer brings out the "protectors of the crown". One person complains about something, and all of a sudden that person is a chronic complainer, their number of posts are assessed for "standing"; too few and the poster is put in their place. Or, a review of all their previous posts are assessed to indicate a chronic complainer or a hidden agenda. You have now elevated someone who disagrees with the developer as "hating the developer". The go-to response is "if you don't like it, move". Pretty much what you just posted. The koolaid drinkers have become the cyberbullies of TOTV. Still friends.

I drank the Kool Aid but I didn't go blind.

I didn't see the bashing. I looked for 10 seconds and felt bad I even gave it 10 seconds. Why would I want to see my friend's opinion being bashed?

I think it's OK to say "Some people feel,,,yada,yada,yada and I disagree." But why name names?

I also think it takes courage to speak your mind knowing that you're going to get slammed. That's why so many read and so few speak up. When someone says, it's just not worth it or that's why I don't write any more I think we loose something.

I sure would like to hear from everyone. I might not like what I hear.
