There are certain words which trip my switch 'handicapped' NO disabled or less able bodied.

Also anyone who says that Downs babies are ''retarded' deserve public flogging.

Yes, these people live among us and should be ashamed.

Having seen Sharrons thread in it's entirety, including the first post to be reported (which wasn't the OP) I fully expecting to see the rr'r post to say it was them. I doubt they would have had much flak.
The other reports were just odd. :-S

We do indeed!

Like many GR friends I am quite capable of declaring I am about to RR a post and why thus giving the poster the opportunity to rephrase or stick to their guns ;-)

I am big enough and ugly enough to take the flak

:-D :-D

How can Genes just delete the whole thread without telling anyone why they're being RR'd...we obviously pay for a dictatorship....

I was just reading the RR'd thread, and it disappeared before my very eyes! :-0

Self flagellation, of the literary kind, methinks..........the RR'r must delight in the mayhem caused......

I wasn't suprised by the first RR, a fair cop I reckon, but the others look like a dash of the sauce was involved :-0

I renewed tonight, for the cost of a couple of bottles of cheap wine. :-D

Don't all groan at once! :-(

It's not like there was really anything to RR in the first place...as usual...Genes need to sort this out once and for all as we've all paid to be on here and might all get fed up....
