@Glen,

Goofy logic. We are all gonna die from something. (Yeah, I know this must come as a shock to you.) But arguing against flue (sic) shots because we will all eventually die of something else shows a distinct lack of critical thinking.

Ouch! That's cold. I suppose your sense of compassion is offset by the fact that there are 7 billion people and counting in the world today?

Who knows how safe vaccines and the components are? They still make money, so who cares?

i'm also curious. pesky thinks it's mature to go to every article someone posts a comment on to go "look at me! look at me! i'm taking someone's words out of context in order to get sympathy from others!" is that wrong?

look, dude, i can play this game too.

Oh, should I repost? Its not a game. You thought it was awesome that someone called a parent caring for a severely disabled child unfit. Didn't you?

Then you said my son's picture was creepy, knowing that I post on this site about his condition.

How did I take your "awesome " comment out of context? It was the only word you used after another individual told me how I "maltreated" my son.

So is it still awesome to hear such disrespectful comments made to a parent of a child with a disability?

I showed you respect. I didn't question your intelligence. You showed me your true colors. It's awesome to hear someone insult a parent taking care of a handicapped child.

i didn't say your son's picture was creepy. i said you were creepy.

"plus you've gotta admit it's a little creepy that you're profile picture (and again i'm assuming) is your son."

Since I discuss his condition on this site, and he is handsome, is it still creepy?

So I obviously have shown how determined I am to find answers that may help him, and you know this, explain your comment below.

"Mike,

If that picture is of your child, I really hope that Child Protective Services looks into your maltreatment of children.

It is abusive to refuse medical care to children who do not have a choice.

You obviously don't have the intelligence to understand metaphor and rhetoric, so I can't see how you think you could possibly make a medical decision for another person's life.

You disgust me. You are an ignorant little whiny child. Unfortunately for us, your parents chose better health care for you than you do for your own children.

You are a member of a cult whose only goal is to cause harm to children."

and your comment-

"cassivella - that was awesome"

"plus you've gotta admit it's a little creepy that you're profile picture (and again i'm assuming) is your son."

i said it was creepy that your picture was your son. therefore the person who posted their son as a profile picture is creepy. nowhere in that sentence are the words arranged as "your son is creepy". now, i know english is a difficult language to some, but in no way, shape, or form did i call your kid creepy. you jumbled the words around in your own head and came up with that all on your own.

How in your jumbled brain is posting my son's picture, when I discuss his condition on this site creepy? If I discussed horses constantly, and posted a picture of a horse, would it be creepy? No you're back peddling, and not very good at it.

Explain how insulting a parent caring for a severely disabled child is AWESOME.

lemme put it this way. it's about as weird as when parents have no pictures of themselves but use their kids as their profile picture on facebook. it's weird. it's weird. it's weird. do i need to say it again?

now get off your soapbox for a minute. i said that cassivella's comment was awesome. when you started doing what you do i told you it was the bottom chunks in the context of antivaccine nuts. you took it personally, started screaming "ohhh! ohhh! he likes it when people insult parents of disabled kids!", and voila. here we are. then i said i didn't care if it was directed at a person or a stump, the bottom chunks, the inability to understand metaphor and rhetoric was what was awesome.

I hope that the community managers are monitoring this, and I would like to see Mike banned.

He is stalking both me and dblhelix throughout the vine.

That is unacceptable.

Agreed. He has stalked penguin15 too.

When you argue with him long enough, his posts border on harassment.

I've been on sites before you and then you relentlessly chimed in. Same goes for penguin. Are you stalking me? Isn't that harassment?

Cassivella, you just stated that I am whoring my son out because I have his picture posted. I'm the one whom should be banned from Newsvine?

From the get go, you said I "maltreated" my disabled son.

Then DBhelix comments how awesome your remark was.

Are you alright?

Then I'm creepy for using my son's photo on a site where I constantly discuss his severe autism.

I have only engaged in commentary on sites on which I previously commented, well before you commented.

You, in fact, replied to threads after I had commented.

You, however, went to newsvine, looked at the list of articles on which I commented, and followed me to other threads, posting libelous remarks directed at me and dlbhelix. You had not previously engaged in the conversation, nor were your remarks related at all to the topics.

If you can't figure out that behaviour is wrong, then perhaps you should not post at all.

You are using your son. He does not have a say in how you are using him. Associating his picture to your remarks is very inconsiderate of your son's feelings.

Do you really want him to look back and see what an ass his father was, and see his picture there too?

Using someone else, without their permission, to further your own irrational gains is whoring someone.

I feel sorry for your son.

"I have only engaged in commentary on sites on which I previously commented, well before you commented"

I was referring to whatever's comment.

"You, however, went to newsvine, looked at the list of articles on which I commented, and followed me to other threads, posting libelous remarks directed at me and dlbhelix."

I posted what you had said. An unwarranted personal attack that stated that I "maltreated" my disabled son. You didn't like my comment on how vaccination injury has caused seizures and fevers that resulted in autistic-like symptoms. So you got upset and fabricated lies about how child protective services should be called for my abuse towards my son.

Now you are saying that I am whoring him out. Get some professional help.

"If you can't figure out that behaviour is wrong, then perhaps you should not post at all."

Practice what you preach.

I think it's probably best if we all just agree to not comment on each other's posts anymore. There's no point in continuing to argue with each other. We've all made our points.

Yeah, I could do without being called a parent that whores out his son and "maltreats" him.

Mike: We've all resorted to name-calling, which is a good sign that there isn't any point to continuing a discussion with each other. (Remember you called penguin autistic and called into question his parenting skills.)

So I agree to not respond to your posts or to initiate debate with you in the future. Will you agree likewise?

There is a difference here.

I have no problem standing by what I have said. In fact, I would say it to Mike in person.

There is nothing wrong or illegal about expressing my opinion based upon the information he has provided.

However, it is illegal to stalk someone.

If something is wrong or illegal in real life, you can bet it is wrong and/or illegal on the net.

This is the last response I am making.

I hope the newsvine community managers ban you for life.

Again, I can contact an author at Newsvine that I know well. I'll email her and we'll see how your "whoring your son out" comment goes over. Let me know.

Cassivella, if you said that to me in person, rest assured, your next comment would be made with broken teeth.

Mike: "Cassivella, if you said that to me in person, rest assured, your next comment would be made with broken teeth."

Jeez, Mike. What's wrong with you? And do you think that Newsvine person would enjoy you insulting penguin15's parenting and calling him autistic? Or how about how you constantly harass me to post my real name and persist even after I gave you a link to my thesis.

Mike, multiple people on these forums feel like you've harassed them. Maybe it's best to just acknowledge the fact that we won't ever see eye-to-eye and leave each other alone.

Cassivella: I see your point. I'm just trying to end this once and for all.

Penguin has never harassed me? Yeah, I suspect Penguin may have aspergers based on his inability to detect sarcasm among other things. Where did I state that disease was something to joke about?

Penguin has 3.5 months of parental experience. He questioned my parental ability well before he was actually a parent. So what's your issue? I got over 21 years with four children, one who is disabled. I think I have a bit more experience than he does, but then again, I wasn't the one who first cast the stone. Cassivella likes to cast stones. She somehow is qualified as to how to care for a son with severe autism, and ridicule them for posting their picture.

Robert, I will leave you alone. Ok?

Who is Robert?

And my point is you're never going to make penguin or me or Cassivella or others like us to agree with you. So why not stop harassing people who disagree with you?

Newsvine isn't the only place you've done this. People on other forums have complained about you too.

You asked for me to stop, then you start again.

I'll leave you alone Gabrielle, OK?

Thank you. You should consider leaving others alone too.

My last post to you.

Dbhelix, I'm sure they did.

I see you like my nickname. You'll see just how pesky I can be.

Yes Mike you are a troll. Good for you. What a sad thing to be proud of.

I love how you do this on multiple discussion forums:

http://www.wrongplanet.net/postt106419.html

And how you've sued an infant formula company twice and had your suit thrown out twice because you couldn't follow the judge's requirement to find an expert witness to support your claims:

http://pacer.mad.uscourts.gov/dc/cgi-bin/recentops.pl?filename=otoole/pdf/pescatore%20v%20mead%20johnson%20%20order.pdf

So keep tilting at windmills, my friend.

Whatever, what was your real name again? The one on your thesis? Gabriell?

Mike: If you want it, go check the link I sent to my thesis again.

I'm done debating with you. Good bye.

Please leave me alone.

^5

i'm pretty sure a couple thousand of my brain cells imploded in the process.

I wonder what it would sound like if someone read all of the posts aloud...like some sort of theatrical performance. Would it be hysterical?

personally, i think it'd be viewed as pretty sad. not the emotional kind of sad, more like the "wtf is wrong with these people" kind.

probably true.
