How long until the dems formally bring up impeachment? Does something like this take a few weeks/months? I can’t remember ‘98.
As long as it takes. Impeachment is a serious matter and not to be taken lightly. The House is currently in investigative mode and the question becomes, how many articles will there be and what evidence will they present for each. It could drag along through the election and a flipped senate. Or, begin after the holidays.
Thanks for the info. Hopefully this process starts sooner rather than later.
That is a great question. based upon my private messages...I'm not sure I'll be around here much longer, I doubt I have the personality for it, walking on pins and needles ain't my strong suit. Letting others be condescending and just going and telling someone else to deal with it ain't my way either.

Just be better than that person. It is not worth it.

me neither. I've flown off the handle more than I should have. but you just have to realize these people say these things just for that reason. or they're psycho.
just put those that bother you on ignore. that's what I've done. it still can take a bit of will power not to check what narcissistic nonsense they blather on about, and you can still see it if it's quoted, but I've started to exercise restraint. even where i used to always respond. Just live and let live.

Others are good at that, I am not.
I do find it really odd that we had an issue...it stopped, let it go, and an hour later warnings and bans come. After it;s been let go...so, if I were to go back and delete all my comments when I'm letting it go and moving on, does that help any? Seems weird to me

you are probably the best around here at it. I have been amazed at your cool temperament when mercilessly attacked personally.

The ban makes sense. He's gotten at least half-a-dozen threads locked with his routine.
He didn't do it by himself.
You're right he had lots of help...cause he had lots of people he was condescending and other things to. Regardless, I'm a big boy and I don't need him banned. So I hope he can come back. maybe just take away his ability to post pictures/memes/etc I keed, I keed...maybe.

It's always him and someone else....with the constant being him.
It's hard to disagree with this.
I kind of do. I feel like it was constantly him and two or three others as well. Always the same people in general who could never let a single thing he ever said go (whether it was condescending or not). I really don't think he was the only one responsible for the problem at all. But in any case, I don't like bans one bit. Not unless the person is truly hateful, which S_C is not.

I'm not on board with the ban, fwiw, but I also feel like he made his bed.
I personally didn't find his behaviour bannable, at least not what I saw. he was not attacking anyone personally, just being condescending/cheeky. I've seen MUCH worse condescension around here on a daily basis than that.

I am one of the few (I think) Americans that was not bothered by him. Probably because 1) I kinda thought of his constant whining about America was similar to sports fans complaining about the Patriots. They're always on top...just like the U! S! A! (particularly on an American band's discussion board) and 2) I think the USA needs to be taken down a peg at times. I think he got beaten up for posting criticism of the US that some others of us would have gotten away with.
That said, he did need to tone it down in some of his replies.
I'm not a fan of bannings...if it were up to me (thank God it's not), I'd be about longer suspensions for anyone not making threats or posting things that could get themselves and the rest of us in trouble.

I'm thinking some of them noticed Rick Perry under that bus too.
Republicans, Foreign Policy Experts Condemn Trump’s Decision To Abandon Kurds
Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina called it “a stain on America’s honor.”
President Donald Trump’s decision to withdraw support for Kurdish allies in northern Syria ahead of Turkey’s planned invasion of the region drew forceful backlash from both Republicans and Democrats, as well as foreign policy experts.
The Kurds lead the Syrian Democratic Forces, the main ally to the U.S. in fighting the self-described Islamic State in Syria. Turkey has long wanted the U.S. to end its support for the Kurds, an ethnic group the Turkish government views as terrorists.
The White House’s announcement Sunday to allow Turkey to invade northern Syria startled some members of Congress, who warned such a move could lead to a genocide of the Kurds and allow ISIS to creep back into the region.
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), a frequent cheerleader of the president, split with Trump on his Syria decision, calling it “shortsighted” and “irresponsible” during a phone interview with “Fox & Friends” on Monday.

SC got another discussion closed for review. I don't think he banned, he just nervous.
i checked. he has the "banned" banner on her profile.
I hate the banning. Even for him.
I hate banning too, but how else do you deal with someone where the posts are 80% incendiary? At some point enough is enough. It's funny but your row was at the low end of the spectrum. Hopefully it's just temporary. I'm a huge fan of disagreements/argu,emts on these boards, but they should be rooted differently than they have been.
Whenever someone from the Party of Trump rebukes, I temper my expectations about what that really might mean. That stuff usually blows over. I think they know what Trump is and want to put out a couple off "right side of history" tweets for posterity. That said, I think Lindsay's past the point of no return.

Keep up the good work mods, and while you're at it, can you figure out how to ban Trump?
