I didn't catch any of the fireworks either. I guess she was just in the mood to kick Brad in the shin...  Your guess is as good as mine why. His boasting of millions of dollars? His new mansion updates? I don't know. Anyway, that guy doesn't have much tolerance for abuse. I liked Sabrina as well, even though we didn't always see eye to eye.

Thanks ID, I already stumbled on that article coincidentially. Nice to know about that feature. I always all for knowing that something works well when not tested on me. She will be missed.

I saw some of it but dismissed it as the normal routine around here. I never expected to see someone other than a terrorist drop the bomb here.

I missed the drama as well.  However, even though she is gone you can dig in archives and see her previous articles.

To the other comment about Brad not having tolerance I am not sure what that means.  I see heated debates a plenty around her.

Bullshit!  I'm way more tolerant than most and he's more tolerant than I.  LW was hijacking articles to take personal shots at the guy who was providing her with a voice here and it was far from the first time.  She used up her 9 lives here and now she's really gone.

I didn't catch what even happened so I'm just taking guesses. lol, 4 years of Obama will test all of our tolerance.

Actually, if it's my understanding, Brad nuked any existance of LW except for any comments to her or about her made by other bloggers. I checked and can't find anything she has posted, at all. Scary. LOL.

Hey, I'm only going by Brad's own comments under the link IslandDog posted above.

He has some tolerance from what I have witnessed, but considering his actions once his tolerance is over, his tolerance limit can yield nuclear results.

Why shouldn't it?  He kept inviting LW back in after she kept shitting on him.  He had is share of shit and kicked her out and locked the door.  I doubt anyone else would have reacted differently besides not inviting her back as many times as he did.

To be clear: I didn't plan on nuking LW.  That was at her request.  I had only exiled her. But she made a fuss about her posts being around because we might potentially make some piddly ad revenue so I took away that concern.

I don't know if I'd describe myself as tolerant or not.  I would say I'm selectively tolerant.  I have almost endless tolerance for people having different points of view from me.  But I have a very limited tolerance to taking personal (and by personal I mean when people start going after me based on what I do in  "real life") attacks and insults.

The series of events that led to LW's expulsion was with regards to the Octuplet mom.  

1. Zooologist said that the the government needs to make sure the woman gets welfare because we don't want the children to starve.  
   
2. I said that people are free to donate to the woman's PayPal account or what have you if you want but we shouldn't be forced to pay via taxes to take care of those who live irresponsibly.
3. LW then came on and argued that the recently announced tax cuts that the State of Michigan is providing Stardock in exchange for Stardock staying in Michigan is the same thing.
4. LW followed up by saying that just as this woman holds her children hostage to get money from the state, so too do I by holding up people's jobs hostages in exchange for government money.
5. (just as a reminder, this is all in a discussion about Octuplet mom that was created by someone else- she changed it to being about me personally)
6. LW makes another comment about my big house and my sports car and how tax dollars are going to be funneled to me so that I can keep living my luxurious lifestyle.
7. Finally I show up after not being part of the thread for several days being pretty outraged. Comparing a guy who's paying millions in taxes annually to some welfare mother who's paying zip in net taxes is insulting.
8. I was also extremley offended at how this got personally directed at me. Stardock, the company, the one who provides this site, gets a tax break. It's still paying a crap load of taxes and all Michigan is doing is leveling the playing field with other states. 
9. I exiled LW and gave her 24 hours to back up her blog.
10. She created another thread where she talkeda bout how I would be making money off her various articles and argued that she got kicked because she had the audacity to disagree with me (saying that the guy who provides you a free blog is no better than a welfare mother is no disagreeing, it's obnoxious).
11. I nuked her.

Well, to be more clear I said that as a society people don't want that.  Honestly I don't care either way because I'm not emotionally invested in it.

That sounds a tad evil, doesn't it?  But you learn to be callous after awhile.

...kinda looks like I instigated this...

You didn't instigate it.

You have a perfectly valid point:

Should society's values be reflected through their elected officials or should society's values be reflecgted thorugh the individual needs of that society?

It's a great debate.
