/// Perhaps then you could offer your reason for your hostility to jno, followed by your hostility to myself, and then your hostility to jack - none of which are remotely merited in my opinion. ///

In 'YOUR' opinion Andy

/// All three of us cannot be that wrong, surely. ///

In 'MY' opinion, yes you all are. //

Then in tandem with my on-going debate with Talbot on the same issue - exactly what have any of us posted that you see as 'wrong', because I am genuinely at a loss.

jno
perhaps you could explain exactly why you did post your OP, then?


Maybe jno will return and clarify what she meant?
Talbot - //Maybe jno will return and clarify what she meant? //

We must agree to differ - I think jno's post is crystal clear.

But there still remains the matter of why you, and indeed AOG, think we were 'wrong' for out posts.

I think AOG sees both of us as agitating - I cannot speak for jno, but it is not something I do - and I have been rather rudely answered for querying that perceived point.

Similarly, jack has been attacked utterly without foundation.

I am only speaking for myself, but I see nothing wrong with the posts from any of us - and I await a response from you and / or AOG to explain exactly what the upset is all about.

Thank you.
I don't do 'upset' andy.

Obviously it is not, but do please explain what she meant.
Talbot - //Obviously it is not, but do please explain what she meant. //

AOG thought it was - he responded - somewhat rudely, but he did respond, which suggests that he understood what was said.

If you are having a problem, then I suggest you wait for AOG or jno to return - I am not about to speak for either of them.
LOL, you do make me laugh andy.
Talbot -

//LOL, you do make me laugh andy. //

OK - I have engaged with AOG about what I think is hard posting to another AB'er.

I received a similarly harsh response from AOG.

Then jack received similar treatment.

Then you launched in deciding that we were 'wrong' but failed to explain why.

Then you decided that jno's post was unclear, although how clearer a one-line post can be I don't know - AOG obviously understood it perfectly well, hence his response.

The I ask for clarification from you about what you specifically think I have said that is wrong, then you say I make you laugh.

If you want to get hold of the wrong end of the stick and beat about the bush with it, feel free, but straight answers to straight questions go a long way to avoiding confusion.

Just a few of the snide comments made by your 'shrinking violet' JTH.

/// Another conspiracy ///

/// I'm usually 'right on the money', svejk, perhaps your tin-foil hat slipped over your eyes and obscured your vision? ///

/// It'll be some sort of conspiracy.... ///

/// Oh, you poor beleaguered men......how on earth do you find the willpower to carry on in the face of displays of such overwhelming and crushing discrimination? ///

/// It strikes me as simply being a 'topical' way of AOG returning to one of his usual hobby-horses.... ///

/// IceCream - A sulky pout is only acceptable on the under-5s.....and even then, not so much..... ///
Bless you......is that why you've been away from your thread for a while; you have been trawling through my posts.....?

How very flattering. :o)

Then explain what jno meant.
Wow, you've got way too much time on you hands if you can be bothered to search the archives to take out of context quotes from another ABer.

So going back to your OP, just what was the point you wanted to make or were you just raising awareness of a news article?
What an odd thread - I thought it was about a man accused of rape in South Africa.
OK, I am out of this.

I have this morning apologised to Retrocop for being unduly harsh in one of my posts.

Now I find myself embroiled in a two-prong attack from AOG and Talbot, both of whom have taken issue with a simple question, and both of whom refuse to tell me what their problem is.

In tandem, both of them seem to think I am in league with jno and jack - when I and they know full well that both of them are perfectly capable of speaking up for themselves.

Finally AOG, I get an exhaustive list of posts you have copied from jack's input, and for reasons I do not understand, you have offered them to me!

rarely do I dip out of a thread before its conclusion, but this is like plaiting fog, and I am sure everyone else is getting irritated and bored with our endless merry-go-round.

Talbot and AOG - carry on between yourselves if you wish - you are obviously seeing something that I cannot see, and you will not explain it to me, so that is the end of my input.

Good luck ladies!
Talbot - //perhaps you could explain exactly why you did post your OP, then? //

If you can't understand that, then I can't help you.
Attack?

Good grief!

You have just made that up, I haven't said or even thought that.
Jno's comment can not be posted as a stand alone post.

AOG

Let's start again...

What is it that you wanted to discuss on this story?

I don't know about you, but whenever I post a story, I like to give a little bit of an opinion about it...that helps people either to take a supporting or opposing point of view.

So with that in mind - what are your thoughts on this story?
SP, I've tried on two occasions to elicit that information, hopefully your post will have more sway than mine.

Perhaps we need to start the ball rolling.

There's scant information to go on in the report, but something really stood out to me...this passage:

In South Africa, a defendant in a sexual assault case cannot be named until they have entered a plea to the charges.

I find that very interesting, as I didn't know about that particular rule.

I wonder how long (after an arrest) a plea has to be made?
