And since you have threatened me with suspension for violating this new rule, I think it is only fair that you define the rule.

So, why the witch hunt?
How did I get on your list? And how do I get off?
You're not on the "list" because there is no "list". There's no witch hunt. You've made 8 posts on OMNI since yesterday, over 30 in the last week. and the moderators have a problem with exactly 1 of them. That 1 post was off topic and directed at another poster. How is that a witch hunt?
I was simply pointing out to the poster that the continued use of sophomoric pejoratives entirely discredits any substance (what little there is) of his posts. How is that a personal attack?
Your "job" on FT is to debate the
issues not to provide your opinion on other poster's credibility. People can judge that for themselves.
I've already pointed out how this comment violated the TOS, and why it was removed.
