Also, is not a defensive reaction pretty natural if you feel you are under attack?
I think that’s the point we’ve been trying to make.
Do we not have the right to stand up for
our rights too or are they moot? Is it only the OP that has a right to accuse and take things the wrong way?
There have indeed been threads where things have taken a turn for the worse. Our words have been so totally taken out of context as to make their original meaning obsolete to anyone but the person who wrote them. The wording has been twisted and turned until “we” look guilty even though they were written with complete innocence. In some cases we have been told we said things which we absolutely did not. We all know threads like that.
Do we then stand by and say “Oh that’s ok. S/he’s a newbie and will learn.”?
Tolerance is a great thing. I suppose we should all try to be more tolerant. But then we probably all would have to take Prozac and see our world through a rose coloured haze. No offense to those that do.
Some days I wish I could.
You don’t have to be in rescue to see the reality of what is happening with the pet overpopulation. It’s all over. On TV, in the news, on line, everywhere. All you have to do is open your eyes. I think I have made my points as calmly and clearly as I can. It’s time for someone else to step in. I've taken up enough of this thread.
