When Sherlock Left the High Road .

- Because it looks like the bad guys won in this case. There was apparently a mass exodus from the web site's forum.

There's almost always an underlying issue when things don't seem quite right!

Oddly, this almost seems to be the same case with another site I was familiar with - but I digress.

At the end of your life, what do you want people (family, friends, neighbors, and strangers never met) to line up and say to your face...

Just kidding, but imagine getting a great big mass apology from everyone who wronged you!

I think everyone, since time immemorial, would have to form a two line tank-track circle and get to walking delivering endless apologies to those familiar or not.

If I understand the post correctly the mod from the group sought out Sherlock.

- yeah - and did so some years later. Sounds like a bored Mod on a waning web-site nit-picking for authoritive attention

I'm 6 years sober and I want to quit going to alcoholics anonymous.

I've never had a drinking problem but addictions are usually a result of an engrained pattern of behavior.

The accountability you hold is to yourself - ultimately to God in the end, but if He's not going to get in your way, there is nothing AA can do to prevent anyone from drinking.
I'm not going to knock AA, but I liken them to Dumbo's Feather - Dumbo already had the ears to fly, he didn't need the feather.
I also liken AA to pharmacological placebos wherein the belief of the pill itself brings the cure.
As I see it, AA is a necessary placebo program to help fortify a person's accountability for their actions. Through the implementation of spiritual and psychological stratigum, they provide an internal balance of self-control.
So. It's been six years. You need to be sure of yourself and KNOW you have what it takes, X 1,000 to leave the program.
Otherwise....

i need to learn how to do this too.

There's a new realm of persons who just think that when a person says something frankly, harsh, or rough that suddenly, it means you must have no moral compass.
People get too caught up in words rather than seeing WHAT the person is trying to communicate.

Sounds like "community policing" in Alaska just went down in flames!

The stone-faced cop who just hands out tickets will never be considered as a "friend" to the community.

I live just a few miles away from the primary traffic hub of the entire state. Basically, there is no place you can get to in the state without crossing my path. Comming in? I'll see you just the same as you are leaving....and so will the cops.

We are a maritime martial law state and the only interests the police serve is the prison system and affiliated corporations of energy.

We are strawmen and the corporate state isn't shy nor does it care if anyone knows of it's nefarious doings - but it's the same story in all 1st & 2nd corporate world countries.

As for me, Sherlock, you never have to provide a disclaimer as to your thoughts about the authorities.
The hypersensitive feelings of social justice snowflakes always abound - you can explain it like you would to a child but it won't make a damm. I'm generally unapologetic anymore.
