Talk amongst yourselves. Yes go ahead and cheer to the high heavens if that is how you feel.

But as there are some very serious issues as to what is appropriate on this forum.

What is allowed.

What is not allowed.

For the forums inability to address these issues I may very well be leaving.

This will be my choice as I don't feel that I can allow the site to be torn down and just stand watching it happen.

Anyway don't respond to this post as I will not be responding back.

If you have questions concerns expressions of relief or whatever - share them with jart. http://occupywallst.org/users/jart/

As I am done trying to keep the peace and get supporters to support each other and I am tired so very tired of slapping down the Forum and OWS and Occupy "attackers".

The main issue that concerns me is utterly,absolutely,and completely banned from this forum-not specifically in the rules,but I know that even 1 single word on the subject would be removed immediately.That is frustrating.The Democrats/Republicans thing is also a drag.DKA-you are one of the most sincere and thoughtful people who post here,and I hope you will consider a leave of absence instead of a permament vacation.Soon will be a very happy birthday indeed and we don't want to celebrate it without you.

I don't understand what is going on? Is this about Ron Paul?

[-] 1 points by trashyharry (3084) from Waterville, NY 11 years ago

The subject I am concerned about pertains to Ron Paul only in that he used to talk about it publicly,but had to stop talking about it and retract everything he had said about it because-the subject is not permitted to be discussed by anyone-on the left,center or right.Nobody is allowed to dicuss the subject.I will give you a hint,thiough-I worked for a firm called Roth in the 1980's,and that is why I care about it.

Is this about end the fed?

[-] 1 points by trashyharry (3084) from Waterville, NY 11 years ago

No-that subject is not considered beyond the pale and is discussed here and in other places.As far as I know,RP has not called for EndFed-only AuditFed.I really can't discuss the subject on this forum because I would instantly be downgraded from Persona Ho Hum to Persona Non Grata.

Is there a link that discusses this mysterious subject?

[-] 1 points by trashyharry (3084) from Waterville, NY 11 years ago

A book that is almost about it is called "1000 Years For Revenge"by the investigative journalist Peter Lance-but remember that curiosity not only killed the cat,it Trashed Harry

Have a beer. Take a walk. It'll make you feel better. You're posts are important to others. Even though you and I have tangled a few times I still think your heart is in the right place. Don;t be hasty.

DKA, ;)

We All have been there ... wanting to get stuff done.... and instead wasting all our time on those who have closed minds..... it's good to take a break once in a while.... We come back focused ... Remember ... we needs sites that are open to All ... for All opinions.... this site should strive to not be moderated... how else will we move mountains ?

If you leave.... hav fun and see ya in a few weeks or so ;)

No two people see the forum the same way. Probably 99% of the posters here don't know what specifics you are referencing. It appears the forum recently added a new feature where articles can to linked back to blogs. I have already put two forum articles on two of my blogs as a current topic.

Just for the record, you were not only "slapping down" ...the Forum and Occupy attackers." you were also "slapping down" Occupiers who know what this revolution is about, and who do not want it to become election central.

Everyone has to do what they feel is right. if you choose to leave, i wish you luck, and i thank you for all the valuable contributions to this forum.

BUT i never did not like your tacit, and not so tacit approval of partisan politics on here. I am happy things have come to the point that it has, and i have worked hard to see that it did.

Perhaps we can now get back to the business of running a revolution here, and have this forum be the place for supporting the people in the streets....organizing every kind of resistance...learning... teaching... reaching out... and defiance to the rotten, f**king system we all live under

The promotion of partisan politics on here...has no business here

If you..we are willing to accept the new rules coming... despite the bad blood that we have had.... i will extend the olive branch to you here and now.

Let's channel that anger that we had at each other, and direct to where it should be

The path we choose is as important as the destination DK. Let's set the example.

Let the healing start here....between us... two bitter rivals

The ball is in your court now DK
