Yes well, I can't think of a single woman I know (including myself) in real life or on this board who would raise the issue as a way to personally attack and drag a male poster. Perhaps someone who doesn't have so much as a shred of empathy would do that.
Even if you thought the poster had unfairly attacked JB?

Are you asking me if I would use KG's medical status as a form of retaliation if he unfairly attacked JB?

No. I would not do that.

Why would anyone do that?

I've seen just 2 posters do that exact thing to him here. None of them was me. Never will be.

Are you not the woman who said she wouldn't save Mike if he was drowning, or something to that effect?

I find that some people will go to extremes when defending spouses or other loved ones if they believe they’ve been wronged.

Certainly that is the case. We have a rule about that:
No blatant or otherwise obvious personal attacks allowed. This includes personal attacks against a person's family members.
So...people can use the report button or I guess fight it out publicly and see how that goes.

Problem is, reporting stuff like that just means more work for the mods while the worst thing to happen to the offender is his post gets censored. That makes this place a troll's paradise.

That’s the work we sign up for. And it’s the same thing we do with all violations. The real problems are those who resort to self help rather than report.

The question I would still like to see Atlanticmike answer is: why is he so terrified of change, progress and honest diversity of opinion?
Why do you think I’m so terrified of change?

Is there any doubt now who this is?

I cannot imagine any scenario where the wife of a banned troll would be doing this.
