Well, I think now we all know how hurt Joann was by Marshall's comments....the difference in her comments and Marshall's is that she was using an analogy to express how she felt by his comments...and well, when Marshall made his comments he meant them.

No, you can't. You can judge how offended you would be to the comments made by Joann, not by the comments made by Marshall. Except that Joann didn't make derogatory comments. She used them as a comparison to how Marshall's comments about her felt.
You have said, a couple of times that, to you, there was no comparison between the two, but unless you are female you aren't seeing that side of the comparison. Now... If you are a female, jewish, african-american, then you've got me. Edited to add - Dan types faster than I do. Last edited by Jim VB; 09-01-2009 at 12:41 PM. |

and you're correct jim. i cannot judge how joann feels.....i did not mean to imply that. i can judge how joann made me feel. joann was using racial and ethnic slurs just as a comparison, so that's ok? c'mon jim. you're smarter than that. |

Andy, of course you're right.
And Joann, I suspect my eyes will somehow continue to work whether or not you edit your post (and I had missed your anti-semitic comments, sorry). Whether or not I'll have the same respect for you is another story. There are powerful and appropriate ways to make an argument and then there are ridiculous ways.

We wouldn't be having this discussion if Barfman had been banned for his disgusting remarks in the first place.

"Mike, until you are in Joann's shoes I don't think you should be telling her that she should feel less offended."---Dan
Well then Dan, by the same token, Joann shouldn't compare her plight to what she stated above. "You have said, a couple of times that, to you, there was no comparison between the two, but unless you are female you aren't seeing that side of the comparison."---JimVB That was me JimVB who made those statements and I stand by them and in the same token, until Joann has a race change she isn't 'seeing that side of the comparison'. Again, I don't doubt that Marshall's words have caused Joann pain that we might not know or comprehend, but my problem is with the statements she made. Joann, I'm sorry if you've been hurt by the comments made to you, but your analogies were inappropriate, even if only used for analogies. Now I'm really finished.
