Ok... I'm going to put myself in the line of fire against my own better judgement. However, I feel I have to make known what I see.

When "Lou" first posted, I sensed trouble. I've put up my red flags and they've gone ignored.

Now! Do you see what some of us saw at the onset?? Everybody is fighting! Everybody is upset! Friendships and loyalties are being ripped apart! Isn't this what BP warned us about? Some of us didn't listen. We didn't listen to The Voice of Experience.

So "Lou" has been banned. So what? He's accomplished what he set out to do. It doesn't matter if he sneaks in here again another another name. He's done what he wanted to do. No doubt he's sitting back in his computer chair saying "See? Didn't I tell them they are all screwed? They didn't listen to me, though!" I don't think for a minute he's laughing. The man is dead serious about his beliefs and who he thinks he is. So was Hitler! So was my ex-husband! Yet, they leave pain and distruction in their wake.

I'm asking you all to see the greater picture. Is one poster worth all this pain? Is one man's opinion worth the destruction of this site and it's members? No! It's not! Please stop letting this person get away with his MO!

Let's take this time to learn from what has happened. Let's learn to respect each other's feelings and thoughts. Let's learn how to communicate without ripping the guts out of the other person. Nothing good comes of that!
