Some people just can't seem to "lighten up"
They just look for a reason to complain about Jim because he is picks on them.
Take Keith 1 for instance. He whined that old Jim was using ethnic slurs in his post about his Jew Lawyer. Keith sounded pretty upset by it the way Jim said jew lawyers should win him a lot of money.
See (CASE CLOSED) thread in the dumpster.
But then in another thread started by Keith 1 he posts about vile sex acts and a husband sleeping with his wife's relatives and friends. To me, that's wrong. but---- do you see me crying about it? no, i just dont read the thread and obsess about it.
Where do we draw the line? hard to say.
I see that this thing will not die. OK. I didn't "whine" as you put it. I pointed out that the term JEW lawyer was very obviously being used in a derogatory and pejorative sense. I didn't ask for the thread to be put in the dumpster, nor did I ask for Jim to be banned. Please remember that I was unaware that this was a typical Jim post, and that most just seem to ignore his rants. Paranthetically, judging by the other posts relating to the issue, it is obvious that other people here have found him offensive.
The comparison to the Divorce Letter post is absurd. First of all, it appears that I was not the first person to post that here. I'll bet that no one "complained" previously. More importantly, that post did not refer to anyone in a derogatory manner. No group (race, ethnicity, gender, etc...) was singled out (and blamed for someone's problems solely on the basis of their religion).
Don't give me so much credit. If Jack didn't have a problem with it, then it wouldn't have gone into the dumpster. Certainly I didn't put it there. I just pointed out the offensive nature of it.
