Took less than five minutes to find this example. Is this him stirring the pot?

[quote=Dirt]Well, it was nice of BC to step into James's spot for the pack.

Been my experience at least if you make a good point with BC he will at least address and sometimes even acknowledge it was a good point. James would just ignore them.

kinda like another barrister here.

I will say this...he was much smarter than his successor.


This is a great summation of James.

I mean they are all in writing. I read them for years. I can keep posting them if you like. Is your argument really that no one ever treated him like shisty lawyer and he was always the one just stirring up the pot?

Are you saying he wasn't ever the instigator?

Never used the words "no one ever" or "he was always the one". My reference to people taking the debate too far and making personal attacks was in reference too both side. You can post all of James comments you want but we all have read them before and have a very good idea what has been said in the past. James is no more innocent than some of the people that attacked him.

I didn't say that Yote. The only point I'm trying to show is... why would someone post if on every post you make multiple people just jump in arguing about the topic or slamming them as a person. Its not good for the forum, it runs people off, and we probably wont be seeing any new James or Matt posts anytime soon. Thats all I have said I think. Thats all I was trying to say. Just an observation. Im sure he said things that weren't perfect too. I wonder what percentage of those things were fighting back though but that is debatable and not the point I'm trying to make.

Even to those who are and have been on T'man whose politics are a little left of center, we should still be welcoming to them; these are the good lefties, not the rabid haters.
Recent events should make all of us a little more aware that others hold different views, and as long as they aren't deranged and debauched we should at least act respectful.

BC is not even a leftist. James was. They both just despise Trump. Trump has a large disapproval rating, so these people are probably common.

I liked James and the site is worse without him. The fact some of you guys couldn't get along with or atleast converse with James should cause some introspection on your part.

Wherever James is and whatever he's doing I hope he's happy and well.

James was ornery and we disagreed on a lot of issues. But, I respected his input and the discussion.

James, Boco and many others made this place better. A diversity of opinion is good--and real life.

Who are you kidding? James thrived on that stuff. If any members contributed to his leaving it was because so many began to ignore his nonsense and without the audience...it just wasn't fun for him anymore.


Eh...wot?

James was here for one thing and one thing only you have to see that.

It's comical listening to all the theories about why he left. Although I disagreed with him on just about everything, I did enjoy debating with him sometimes... but it seemed many times he couldn't take it as well as he dished it out.

My buddies a lawyer a patient attorney but he thinks he’s Perry Mason most days, there seems to be a need for lawyers to practice their debate skills even if it drives people away in droves. He’s a big TDS fan he gobbles up every nugget that’s anti Trump it’s kind of said. In person he’s normal but put a keyboard in front of him and he’s repulsive toxic even.

It’s been pointed out to him that he’s beyond obsessed and borderline crazy with it, he can’t go a day without posting some misleading CNN trash to feed his need just childish stuff like “Trump said smart people don’t like him” insinuating his supporters and not the business people that got things wrong.

It hurting him socially I hope he doesn’t pull that BS in person it would end his friendships greatly being a lawyer I doubt he has a lot of them.

James like Boco didn't leave the forum. They look in from time to time. Boco has even made a couple of posts. [Linked Image]
