[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the record, no one was told to “shut up”. What you (and others, maybe) were told was that the other thread was not the appropriate place to make general complaints about the housing voucher program. And it wasn’t because the two kids’ deaths had nothing to do with the fact that their caregivers were voucher recipients. None of those who were conveying this message to you were being the least bit cynical. Rather it was you who was cynically exploiting the violent deaths of two defenseless young children to draw attention to [b]your[/b] problem. You make me sick.[/quote] It’s easy to see that people were lying about “just wanting the discussion to focus on the kids” when, instead of actually talking about the kids, they wrote dozens of posts attacking people. Or claimed it isn’t the right place to discuss the housing vouchers, but then wrote posts defending the vouchers in the same discussion. Anyone can see for themselves what was written. If you wanted to talk about the kids and not the vouchers or your feelings about other users, you could have. Instead you made dozens of other posts not about the kids, many about the voucher program itself, and then cynically kept using the death of the kids as a rhetorical cudgel to attack people here.[/quote] You say that there were posts defending the voucher program on there. Show us. We will wait. We will be waiting a long time because there weren’t any. That thread was locked because you couldn’t stop exploiting the deaths of these two children for cheap political gain. You were directed to this thread, which was the appropriate place to discuss the voucher issue, yet you kept posting to the thread about the dead children.[/quote]
