In your case, and posibly Grace's, its making jabs, digs, and insults towards the Gov of my state hoping to get a rise out of me. Not making a direct personal insult against me, but hoping to get a negative reaction that you can sit back and get your jollies off.
Again with you, post #23, hoping to get a rise out of me while hoping I had no proof of an earlier statement I posted. Now you are ignoring the links you asked for in order to take the thread in another direction rather then address the actual discussion. I provided links and a direct quote, I can get you more, unlike you I am more then willing to help out.
You would rather belittle people you dont agree with then actually be helpful.
The above are examples of what I view as passive aggresive behavior.
ETA: your post #30 is the classic redirect question I would expect from a passive aggresive personality.
