Should the words of others be xed out whenever someone feels hurt? Should there be a petition? It was a compromise even to asterisk the original word...

> BobSeems insensitive? It IS insensitive. Putting one asterisk was a very huge compromise. Now nobody could possibly know what that word is, could they Dr. Bob?
Can you in all honesty tell me that the word used beside my name or any equivalant equals any other? If you believe in Jesus Christ and are a Christian then the answer would have to be NO. There could be no other answer. And do I think x'ing out when somebody is hurt is appropriate?
YES YES YES, WHERE IS YOUR COMPASSION??? WHERE IS YOUR EMPATHY FOR OTHER HUMAN BEINGS???? WHERE IS THE SUPPORT??? AGAIN, ARE YOU EXEMPT FROM YOUR OWN RULES??? Do you not have feelings for others? Can you not feel their pain?
Maybe you forget that you are dealing with the mentally ill and you have absolutely NO way of knowing how anyone here is going to react. What if I HAD killed myself over YOUR lack of support, how would you feel then? Would you feel any differently? Would it make you question your decision or your rules and your lack of support? Would it Dr. Bob?
Maybe if things are so rigid that you can't show any compassion to others then the rules around here need to be changed. For once I would like to see you change your original punishment or actions and admit that maybe, just maybe there might be even the slightest, remote possibility that you were wrong. Do you show your own patients in your practice this same lack of caring? I would hope not.
And if you choose to give me ANY kind of punishment for this post then that in itself will be proof that you don't treat like situations the same because there are other posts on here that are extremely similiar to this one. So, I would have to ask you then, why were they overlooked and I am the one that gets punished. I could give you the URLs but I won't because I don't want them to get punished. I don't think you could honestly say that you must've missed them because there are quite a few.
I also find it quite interesting that you show up only AFTER I ask everybody to stop and the original subject line is archived. Why is that Dr. Bob? I would like to know. Were you waiting for the dust to settle first?
