    You only ignore liberals?

      Where exactly, then, does the "nutter" bit come in? Or are they "nutters" just because they happen to disagree with you? Does it, in fact, matter if they claim that they are "above the law" if they still make sure to obey it?

        Sorry, Moby, but the no-personal-attacks rule applies only to persons--that is to say, complete human beings. You are a giant sphincter, and so do not qualify for its protection.

          They're nutters because they don't eat beef.

              Of course they're not nutters becasue they happen to disagree with me, that's BS to suggest that.

              The problem is that they are insisting on the right to disregard public health for their beliefs. They also said that a "nightmare" was just beginning for the Welsh assembly. That sounds like a kind of threat.

                It's quite ironic that the Uttarkhand government, which recently banned cow slaughter and the trading of beef, included an exception in the case when the animal was sick and would endanger human or animal health.

                    Whoa! That is totally uncalled for!

                    Ming, again another poster is engaged in vicious personal attacks against my person - how can you let these people blatantly flaunt your rules to such an extent...?

                      You have insulted the great Cow. There's little Ming can do to save you now.

                        And he's doing it repeatedly, too. Isn't it the repeat rule-breakers that Ming really hates?

                        Not that I mind Elok insulting you; it's very amusing.

                          I think it's amusing too, however he is repeatedly disrespecting the rules of the site and Ming's authority which we are told is a very serious thing...

                          Asher got permabanned for far far less, and this is making a mockery of that permabanning.
                          Is it me, or is MOBIUS a horrible person?

                            Very serious indeed. Nothing to kid around about.

                                There's a trick to it. It's similar to the way you can be an ill-mannered, muckraking troll for days at a time and then turn around and complain about incivility, trying to hide behind the letter of codes of conduct whose spirit you routinely butt-rape.
