Note: The following is a failsafe posting. I replied to a comment made to me on another person's journal last night, but somehow it didn't make it through. I want to be sure that this response is available in more than one spot should technology fail me again.
**************************************
I know I replied to this last night, and apparently it did not go through completely. But that's ok because I think I'm more able to write a more cohesive response this morning.
Art;
You are absolutely right. It is Rey's room. And yes, she has the right to say whatever she chooses.
However, it is becoming too painful to me to see people I care about being called names they do not deserve by people who do not know them. It was to Darkrosetiger and Msmanna I was speaking, much like C. did at the Gathering when I challenged R.'s assumption on Rey's motives in front of her.
When things got too painful in the Argument Shop, I resorted to email-filter tech fu to file all posts in a sub-folder as a means of emotional defense.
As of my first posting of this response last night, all three of you have now been removed from my friends list so that I am no longer privy to these posts and the well-intentioned but incorrect name-calling by those who wish to support one side or the other.
I will of course be checking in on your journals to keep up with your posts, but only when I am mentaly prepared to keep my thoughts behind my teeth should I see another of this kind of post.
I know that R. has sent an email. I refused to read it before it was sent. I truly hope that it is the begining of healing between the three of you. I can hope that the three of you start talking to one another instead of posting here in plain view of us in the middle, and locking the pertinant person out.
I simply cannot be party to this any more.
