[QUOTE="Annie, post: 3016635, member: 42224"] OSA has changed over the years ... some of it good, some of it not so ... but the societal demographics are pretty well reoresented, IMHO. I don't agree with everybody who posts, and with the exception of a fella who refuses to show me any respected, I tend to try to see both sides of the issue. Like I said, I'm a libertarian conservative with a slight liberal slant. Thank God he finally blocked me so he doesn't have to suffer any longer. :hey3: I was really losing sleep over his suffering ... :rolleyes: The trick is to not take someone's post as a personal offenses, which is hard to do sometimes, I realize. That is why I am grateful for you guys who organize the ENSes. [USER=10465]@druryj[/USER] and [USER=5391]@gerhard1[/USER] ... we all have a lot more in common than we do differences. Problem is it is hard to see that in the middle of a heated discussion about the 1 in a whatever cop that needs to be taken out and strung up. It's just easier to blame them all ... or make excuses for the bad ones in order to further your own agenda. Compound that with the fact that there are NO REAK ANSWERS to the problems, coupled with the societal disconnect with anything other than social media, and "news" that is anything but, and it's no wonder both sides feel marginalized.
