Your points were valid, your vitriol was at its usual level of intensity, you most assuredly did *not* wish harm on anyone's mother or anyone else, and you usually do offer a unique and often well-reasoned point of view in your arguments.

This doesn't mean that it isn't often difficult to see through your invective to get at the points contained therein, but I have a lot of experience with this sort of communication online, so I can overlook it. However, the response you got (posting on Bandqueer...what the fuck is Bandqueer, anyway?) is fairly typical from someone who *can't* get past the aggressive language and name-calling.

I prefer to avoid it myself, and that's why I don't often carry on lengthy discussions with you, Dave, but there was notihing in the argument *or* the language that implied that you wished harm to come upon anyone.

Now, tell me again, why do we care about Bandqueer, and what is it?
