I didn't alert on your post down-thread. I thought it was a weird leap of logic, but I wasn't offended by it.

You don't think that's what inspired this thread? I think people have a right to know. He came out of retirement to take a shot at DU.

Does trumad know you are married? Or do you assume he knows you are married?

it's saying any woman in my life isn't, or hasn't been, "fine". But, I would bet he knows I'm married.

I took it to mean he's met someone he cares about. Regardless, if it had been so "sick" someone would have alerted. Talk about much ado about nothing.

Yeah, right.
Please explain that line of thinking.

How do you know if it was alerted on, or not? And, since when does that determine if something is a personal attack, or not?

Tue Apr 1, 2014, 03:36 PM

and construing as such is strange.

The post was not hidden, and considering that you regularly insist that jurors are always right, you have no reason to complain now.

Apr 2014

You're doubling down on it having been alerted on, you must have alerted or served on the jury.

I have never said anything like "jurors are always right". Link please. No one in their right mind would make that claim, and I've never seen anyone make it.

Produce the jury results and the link that I requested, or admit that you've just made crap up again.

I somehow missed your reply the other day.

The post is still there. That's not making up shit. It's basic reading. The fact he doesn't mention your wife is also clear from reading the post. Why you assume everyone knows or even cares about your personal life, I have no idea.

but it sounds like they may have been more of an attack on you than your family, considering they don't know your wife and daughter and have no reason to dislike them.

then your opinion is completely useless. Do you think it's acceptable to use someone's family members to attack them on DU?

Since my opinion is completely useless.

If it's the comment in the thread you linked to, it's not an attack against your wife, you, or anyone else.
