re: #202 Charles

And by the way, I know that you were banned previously from posting at LGF, in case you think you’re fooling anyone.

Is that really fair? I opened an LGF account under the username “foobear” several years ago, but was pretty much a lurker who didn’t log in or try to post. When I did finally log in to join a discussion, it was my understanding that my account was locked because of unexpected activity after a long period of inactivity. Subsequent to that, I tried re-registering a couple of times, only to have those attempts locked as well. My current account stayed open only after I posted a direct appeal to you pleading my case.

Now, it appears you’re tossing in the “in case you think your fooling anyone” comment to paint me as one of the trolls who regularly register a new account, post inflammatory comments, and get banned again. That’s not true, and you know it.

As for my position on Park51, continuing to characterize my opposition as rooted in prejudice does not make it so. There are millions of good Sikhs, but a person could in good faith object to a Sikh community center being built next to the garden where Indira Gandhi was assassinated.

I guess that’s about all for me this evening.
