That one offensive comment has been discussed repeatedly for months on end, but even now you can't bring yourself to denounce rape threats. Instead you say "I didn't see it until it was over." Then you go on to hedge and say if something like that actually was said. If you saw the comment, you know very well it was said. Tell me why that is less of a concern to you than the dog remark? Is it that you consider threatening to rape a woman less serious that the comments referenced above? Or is that you think threats against some people are more serious than others? I didn't see the pat on the head comment until well after the fact, but that didn't stop people like you from deciding I was personally responsible for a remark made by someone on my ignore list.
Show we where I went back to my safe haven group and made fun of them. Go on. I'm waiting for a link. You have made a serious charge against me with no proof. I don't recall ever discussing that person in that group. Why should I apologize for something I never said? Is it possible that you aren't able to distinguish individuals and that you believe feminists collectively bare the blame for what one person does? If so, what does that say about you?
Given how outraged you are by the pat on the head comment, I would think you'd have something to say about this. http://www.democraticunderground.com/111410188#post343
Or is it not as offensive if it doesn't aid in grinding a personal axe?
I personally do not believe in the inherent superiority of one person above the rest of humanity and therefore do not think an insult against one person worse than those waged against the rest of the DU membership, subject to insults every day.
