I have apologised to the two people whose posts I misinterpreted. I have never received an apology from anyone on this forum for any abuse I have received, (save for one individual, the conversation was at a PM level) from this thread or any other, nor do I expect one.
My first contribution to this thread stated that I was disgusted at the opinions being aired. This opinion hasn't changed. I don't see that having a different opinion is disrespectful.

Hi Stuart,
I am not attacking your views just your chosen method of expressing them in your first post to this thread. I thought possibly you had let your emotions guide your response particularly when you challenged the moderators to close the thread. If you felt that strongly about what was being expressed you could have clicked the red X and put in a complaint direct to the moderators.
On another note did anyone see the story on ACA about a pregnant woman on a Sydney train I think whom simply asked another woman to remove her bag from the seat so she could sit down. She received a tirade of abuse from this woman for her request. Luckily in this instant other passengers came to her defence.
