Deleted my thread

[pomtzu]

Back to the topic of the thread.

I did happen to read the thread and I decided not to comment this time like I did in one of her other threads. I've learned that many of her threads do become controversial for whatever the reason. It does seem like the same PT people have a problem with her views or threads.

Yes - there are some that have the intestinal fortitude to speak up, and don't just sit and spin...........

[Bonny]

Isn't the Dog House suppose to be a place to bring controversy? I like to read everyones opinions on life. Not everyone is going to agree but a person can learn from others experiences. I get wound up on certain subjects too. Everyone has their good & bad days on here. Maybe if you have something controversial it should be put with your title. But then everything in the dog house is controversial most of the time.

Because I didn't actually see the thread, I leave my opinion to myself. End of story.

The Dog House is the pace to discuss controversial or upsetting topics, it does not need to be a place to generate controversy or argument.

We should always remember to be respectful of the other members opinions, after all, everyone is here because they love their pet or pets, and that gives us more in common than the differences we have between us.

Karen----Would being respectful not includebeing careful of the lterms we use when discussing something controversial? Yes, we all love our pets, more than we realize sometimes, but does that make us shallow to the point of excluding friends, relatives, family, etc from that love?
The term "veggie salad" to me was one of the most offensive descriptions of a loved one afflicted to that state be it from birth, accident or whatever else?
Who is to say that no member of this forum did not have a child, relative, friend, neighbour, etc in such a state? Reading this offensive use of words would be heartbreaking not to mention disrespectful to anyone having to live through a horrible ordeal such as this.

I have to wonder at someone not being able to extend the same love they have for a pet to a human being.

Pttttthhhhh .... I missed all the fun!

getting her lady guts ripped out...

I would consider this one of the most offensive descriptions of spaying a pet I've ever heard...But I did not do the nasty....

I leave that to the specialist.

I did not read the thread in question beyond the first posts. So know nothing about what went on further down the line.

What I don't understand are the farewell responses - then the poster keeps coming back and back and back some more?

Grace, you of ALL people should know what "grace" means. Some people just don't have any.
"The exercise of love, kindness, mercy, favor; disposition to benefit or serve another; favor bestowed or privilege conferred. "

My niece's name is Grace and I hope she grows into her name.

If this is directed at me, obviously I worded my "farewell" wrong. It was my intention to make it clear that I would never direct any comment, be it good, bad, or indifferent, to the party that felt I was mean and picking on her.

That was a wee bit tasteless but no matter how much we love our pets I find
a big difference in :
Cat versus human

Sheesh - you could have sent me a PM rather than post, and now that thread title gets dragged into this unrelated thread ... I have a PM in to Jess to reword her title, which I could have done days ago if I had known people were offended by it!

HUH? In the thread itself, several people commented on it, and you defended it by saying something along the lines of "I would have said lady parts, not much different...". Whatever would give anyone the idea that you would have asked her to re-word it had the request been sent to you privately when you already supported it publically?

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to decipher that the thread title was offensive. Come on. Can't you EVER give ES a tiny break?
