We needn't all agree on everything. Far from it. Debate is wonderful. But it is possible to discuss, to disagree, argue even, without falling into disrespect.

I think all of that could have transpired had Basil not taken the road he did with the situation he put himself in. We're not unreasonable. If he does continue to post after his ban is lifted. That is when we can see if he can contribute to this forum and not does be combative. If he goes right to acting the same way. He's out.
