Friends,
It is written here,[...do you have any idea of what his (Dr. Hsiung's) rationale {could} be?..can you {imagine} what he >might< think or what logic or reason he might be applying?...].
I think that it is more civil and supportive for rules, in particular in a mental-health community, to be well-defined and applied equally so that one does not need to use their imagination to post within the rules. There is an invitation from Dr. Hsiung to ask him about his rules and policy here on the administrative board.
In my requests about administrative policy and rules, it is because I am uncertian as to how the rule or policy is defined and would like to have a clearer understanding of his rules and policy here. I welcome other's thinking about what they think the rule or policy entails and so if you know the answers to the questions that I have asked Dr. Hsiung, I would appreciate it if you could post what you know to be the answer to my questions to Dr. Hsiung in; http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/admin/20061018/msgs699244.html. If you could also state your rational for knowing the answer, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly.
I agree with Dr. Hsiung that the forum's goals are for support and education and would like to facilitate support by offering support {from my perspective} here. In order for the support that I would like to offer {from my perspective} here, I am asking to have clarification of the rules and policy here to do that. There are new rules made that I am uncertain as to what they entail that could impact my ability to offer support from my perspective.
In (G) of my request, Dr Hsiung has posted that the administration will respond either in the thread or to me with an answer to my question. I am asking what another way could be if the deputies or Dr. Hsiung do not reply in either way to posts that IMO have the potential to arrouse antisemitic feelings or to foster defamation toward me by the nature that those posts of that nature are left unaddressed on the board and the administration does not reply to me with an answer to my question which is usually asking if their thinking is if the statement in question is civil or not.
In most of the posts in question, that answer was given in 1947 and I am proud to be part of a country that has gone forward from then and honored those determinations in their laws. The advances that have come out form that determination has catapulted society here to one that other countries are emulating in their laws. The work of Dr. Martin Luther King jr. has inspired a nation to go forward , away from before the past practice of state-sponsored discrimination. The work of the Anti-Defamation League has gone hand-in hand with laws to support minority equality and to have their voice heard that condemns statements that accuse Jews or has the potential to arrouse antisemitic feelings.
There are countless others that want to go forward from 1947. I am proud to be one of them and would like for the rules and policy here to be made clearer to me so that I can post here within the rules and offer support and education from my perspective.
Lou
