I hope you would agree that I have responded to your posts with engagement and courtesy?
I wonder if you could let me know how you feel about Thom's posts on here, a public forum in which he is a new member, that are anti Islamic, racist and homophobic?
One thing that has always been true of this forum, over its while history, is that we are intolerant of intolerance and bigotry. If you read through the moderator thread you will see many examples of people being banned for such behaviour.
It is those posts and public opinions that have roused this rabble. We feel they need calling out, more than any privately-airred pub time "fun" qualities of Thom.
Are you OK to leave them unchallenged? In some views, explained above, not challenging such opinions is tantamount to endorsing them.
I'd be interested to hear your views?
