You know what's really telling?
That the one person who had any right to be offended by Kyla's message
didn' t say a word about it. Think about it. Then again, Susan is one of those people I can't picture being mean to others here. Cheers. Victor |

But even if she was, nobody here ever asked *Susan* how she felt. They just went off on their self- righteous, mouth-foaming rants about how "inappropriate" and "creepy" Kyla is. That's all they really wanted to do. Similarly, some folks have gone on and on about my supposedly "malicious" post about Kyla's emotional issues. But did anyone bother to ask Kyla herself how *she* felt about it? Of course not, because they don't care how she felt. They just couldn't miss an opportunity to stomp down on any "unusual" behavior that violates their provincial concept of "social conventions". Well, as it turns out, I did ask Kyla, in private email, how she felt about my post. After all the nattering about it, I thought I'd better check. And guess what - she appreciated it! (Yes, I do have permission from her to say this here.) She felt that my post was one of the kindest of the bunch, and because it was truthful, it did not level all sorts of false and nasty accusations at her. I simply told the truth as I saw it. But then again, it was my post's very honesty that people objected to. We're all allowed to think it, and we can all see it. We can even make jokes about it as long as we're overstating the case in such a way as to be clear it's just a joke (yes, someone actually said it was kinder to call someone a "whack job" than to say they have emotional issues - go figure). But god forbid anyone actually say it out loud, in a simple and direct manner. Don't look directly at the truth, it might blind you. Let's just pretend it doesn't exist and maybe it will go away. What a warped set of values some people have. -- Joyce ^..^ (To email me, remove the X's from my user name.) |

I clicked "Ignore thread" on that way some time ago so I haven't been
seeing it. Nor have I missed it. Dan Lucky you I should have done the same thing Well, RPCA is very important to me. It feels like a part of my family. And just like real-life families, sometimes members of this on-line family don't get along with other members. Also just like with real-life families, listening to people you care about acting like a**holes towards each other is very painful and disturbing. I find life is much more comfortable if I just ignore the nastiness whenever I can. I've exchanged private e-mails with some of the parties involved here, trying to make sure that nobody was getting hurt too badly, but just not seeing any of the messages for the last week or two has been a tremendous relief. I figure when people get exercised enough, they'll start to let this whole thing slide. When that happens we can maybe get back to being a concerned, supportive, caring group of people who love cats and like to help other cat-lovers. |

Daniel you just spoke some words of wisdom that I wish all of us would remember. What your are doing is one of the main reasons I made that promise to keep the peace. Since that I am very happy me and Adrian are friends now. I love everyone out here you all keep me sane but it has gone way to far and it needs to stop. I thank you Daniel for being a peace keeper |
