Thank you! This topic goes so much farther than a comment made on a story- it's a commentary on life.
The ignorant comments of the intolerant and usually anonymous people on this site used to make me angry. For the first few weeks I was on this site I would sometimes respond to their barbs and stick up for the authors. It did not take me long though to realize that I was tilting at windmills. The intolerant and ignorant are always going to be with us; they're never going to change. It really is a shame.
Try not to let them get to you. You have more fans than detractors and a big fan in Atlanta.
for thought. People really should learn to offer constructive criticism rather than just fling derogatory comments that do nothing to support an opinion. And that lesson doesn't just extend to the subject of a story, but to life matters in general. Very well said!
