I am not surprised this newcomer left tout suite.
The thread was supposed to be about a crazy attack on children.
Somehow, it was turned into a thread about race and hate.
Why? Why?

Actually this was her "a little bit about me" introduction thread.
Again, sidetracked by personal remarks instead of simply welcoming the newcomer.
I'm sure she has a bitter taste in her mind now about this forum. So sad.

I'm going to post my own part anyway in hopes she sees it.

Apparently it is necessary to...

"get the measure of a newbie from the beginning."

this forum could never be described as a "timid and quiet place of contemplation" - there does seem to be a set of rules somewhere - maybe they should be at the front door? Most of us have erred somwhere along the way and often apologize too. It's all part of living and being part of a living breathing emptional group of various world nationalities who sometimes speak strange words that we don't all understand - but in the end it can be fun and nurturing but probably never the "mothership"!!
 

Be careful when using the word power. It comes with ramifications, like BE powerful, not its opposite. Powerful people don't get offended, run, hide.
