I really dislike the tendency of disparaging people who are no longer participants here. It's really easy to take a swipe at someone with whose views/positions/politics/personality you disagree with.
They're gone.
Accept that and, dare I say, move on.
I used to participate on another forum that started dumping on a person who was not even on that forum. I found it distasteful to attack him/her when s/he had no place to reply.
Don't speak ill of the (figurative) dead, especially when they've been gone for years.

Indeed. There is nothing to be gained by dredging up old wounds, and much to be lost. Again.

You’re still here and therefore fair game.

Yup. I can take it. Its ok. I know who the good people are and am learning to take and accept their rebuttals. People like you and George though, through our disagreements, you are both people who i am blessed to call friend.

It's not a "tendency", Dewey fucked with me while he was here, was disingenuous and manipulative, and I dislike it. There is not a "tendency", but leaving does not give immunity from comment in the future.

How the hell did a thread about Trump turn into a discussion of a 12 year old thread on this board? Amazing.
FWIW, I think Dewey rocks. Probably in contrast to many of you, I met him personally. It's amazing how many of you judge him based on a few bits of coarse-grained information, without knowing any of the details.

Reminded me of an old comedy film series, Carry On...
one was called 'Carry on Regardless'.
There were 31 Carry On films made, I wonder if they'll make a 32nd in honour of Trump.

Hu? No idea what you are talking about.
Meeting somebody personally gives a different and wider perspective on a person than merely chatting on a public internet forum. It gives a better approximation of that person's character.
Which, by the way, is a reason why I don't understand why a few of us never want to meet or see anyone else from the forum. Makes me wonder whether they pretend to be something different from what they really are.

Yup, its ironic that the loudest voices here have never made known their face. Yet we have to accept them when for all we know, they are Russians here only to stir the pot and make us vote for Trump. Its a thing you know?

It might surprise a few people here to learn that I am actually an MMA fighter. Particularly those who've met me.

For some things, personality nor details matter. In person, he may be charming, personable and a joy to be around. I'm sure he has decent people skills, or he wouldn't have a church, no matter how far some churches have fallen from the Bible.
That doesn't change the fact of his being apostate.
