Ok Guys,

So here you are... the bed is made and everything...![Stick Out Tongue :p :p](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)

ClubMan said:In this case MJ is innocent of the charges presented having been acquitted by a jury of his peers who came to this conclusion having assessed all of the available evidence presented to them.
Fair enough - but surely every case is a sad case for somebody given that normally either the prosecution or the defence "win" the case and the other loses? I don't see why this case is any more significant than the many others that take place every day?
OhPinchy said:Clubman why oh why do you feel the need to lecture almost everyone that posts an opinion that differs to yours?
It has become truly predictable and I firmly believe that your overbearing comments are directly related to the sharp drop in the number of users in the non-financial sections of AAM.
I was discussing this with some friends recently and all agree that their interest in AAM has waned as they know that if they post something that you perceive as controversial in any way you will pop up to tell them off soon after.
In this particular case just because a man is found not guilty in a court of law does not mean that he is an innocent man.
The original poster may well hold the belief that MJ is guilty of molesting some children, maybe even the children involved in this case and that the prosecution are to blame for the innocent verdict due to their mistake in making the charges too specific. MJ is innocent of these particular charges but the poster is well entitled to feel that he may well still be a child molestor.
Judge Curtin got off the hook on a technicality and somehow Haughey has avoided prosecution - I think that both of these men are guilty of different crimes and am entitled to feel that.
Maybe if you stuck to airing your views as opposed to admonishing others for theirs people would feel less intimidated about posting here.
ClubMan said:I'm not lecturing anybody - I'm merely contributing my opinion to the discussion.
ClubMan said:You're entitled to your opinion but I would be interested if you could back that claim up and maybe provide other examples of where people objected to me expressing my opinions. I must check the site stats again but I'm pretty sure that there has not been any reduction in the amount of activity on the site lately in spite of what you claim.
ClubMan said:Can you explain how my allegedly overbearing comments here in a forum called Letting Off Steam designed for the discussion of current affairs and other off topic non financial subjects is supposedly scaring people out of the core financial forums?
insinuating (facetiously I presume?) that I "run" the site
ubiquitous said:Maybe I'm imagining it but I thought up to now at least that AAM has been busier than ever before since we moved to vbulletin.

RainyDay said:I search my conscience but I really can't see how anything Clubman or I have said could be seen as overbearing, or bullying.
