Apology accepted, linking would not have been offensive but a warning would have been a nice touch - I think some judicial editing would have worked fine.My sincere apologies. I simply copied and pasted the post in its entirety and if I could edit or delete it now I certainly would.
Just a question (not trying to make an argument), if I had simply linked to the post and not quoted it, would that have been more acceptable or just as offensive?
In any case you are correct in that I should be accountable for this and if a ban is deemed appropriate then I am fine with that.
DI: Political correctness isn't the issue. The original writer was just plan crass and vulgar and we didn't need to read that. I'm not down on SoCal, I'm sure he was focused on the Colts' "attitude" aspect and just looked past the garbage that was attached to the item - I have no doubt he's just a victim of inattention, I've walked into lampposts myself.
On the moved thread, I'm with you and disgusted that people couldn't just take a copy into the political forum to voice their interpretations there. As it is it leaves no room for the discussion on sports culture which was pertinent to this forum - I guess the concept of parallel threads is too complex or requires too much self control.
