IP Banning
I’ve had a couple of nasty right-wing oriented comments on my entries. I finally banned one guy’s IP from commenting but generally I don’t like to do that. I welcome opposing points of view here but this particular one (in the entry below) was so clearly flame-bait that I just banned the guy.
I wouldn’t go to a conservative blog and rant and rave at anyone because it’s rude and not very helpful. Even if they wrote that “bedwtting liberal up-bringing” will result in deserved ass-kicking of children on their own blog, well, that’s why browsers have buttons that allow us to leave such sites. (And let the record show that I have never felt that my conservative friends’ kids deserve to have their asses kicked. Quite the contrary but then I’m a LIBERAL and that means that I spend all of this time defending diversity and supporting freedom of speech, often putting me on the side of nasty folks like Mr. Galt. Ironic, eh?)
So let me just say, I welcome conservative commentary here if it’s polite and meant to further discourse. ‘Cuz ain’t that what America’s all about???
Good riddance.
How original of him, too–wasn’t John Galt the Ayn Rand character in The Fountainhead? This guy is probably a 14 year old, which is when most normal people read that book and agree with it, before growing up and learning to think more 3-dimensionally.
Good for you, Dawn. So rude. And, on Madison’s big day. Blah. Some people….
Have a great day!
I wouldn’t call that conservative commentary. I would call it someone being an a**.
I think most of my conservative friends would agree.
I’m as right wing as they come…
I think mr. galt was just rude!
I love your babies! Breathtaking! Like my kids they will grow up in a family that loves them, and teaches them to think. My hopes is they will be best friends with someone who thinks differently then them, and still carry their beliefs strong. Just my 2cents.
(Oh, not the Fountainhead, he was in Atlas Shrugged.)
