This is particularly true when a certain commenter jumps in and immediately starts posting things that I know to be 100% FALSE. Jadegolds comments were beyond laughable, which might explain why he was immediately received so warmly by Pandora and other DL contributors. In that situation, saying "put up or shut up" as you put it, is appropriate. As you can see, he didn't put up, he shut up. Max – Exactly.

If we were thin skinned about it there would be very few Blogs and nearly no dialog. As for JadeGold; That Troll's reputation preceeds it. In time you will see how disruptive and obnoxious this one is. I only hope you will remember what you said to Mike W. when he called it on it's normal posting pattern. Ok, I'll go back to lurking now. Max Pandora,

Pandora - Who said anything about my making a "decision? " I have no authority to make him leave DE Liberal, so where am I making a "decision?" JadeGold is making comments in this thread that are 100% irrefutably untrue, as such, it is perfectly acceptable within the scope of this argument to tell him to "backup what you say or leave." If you'd like I can change "leave" to "refrain from commenting" if you'd like. “You may make those decisions on your blog, and your blog alone.”

I WILL NOT give up my rights because of the criminal actions of others, and I will speak out against those who claim that I should. (like our old friend JadeGold here) The whole concept of compromising my rights away because of the irresponsibility of others is absurd. And therein lies the problem.
