Behaviors of "others"

Why do so many people here on a support site care so much about the behavior of others?

As long as members observe the TOS (many do not but that is allowed due to poor management), then what's the big deal?

DS is not the military with all the rules & regulations of behavior.

DS is not like a communist country where free speech is not allowed.

If members want to post what THEY want, why can't that be respected & accepted.

If someone is very upset over the death of Michael Jackson, why do some people get angry & abusive towards them?

Why do some people get pissy about how others support members?

If members want to talk about God, why does it anger other members so much?

Life with depression & other mental illness is hard enough without being bashed & criticized on a support site.

Peace

" just about everyone that has posted on here has said that they never intentionally try and hurt anyone.
do you all realize that yes you are hurting others,with all due respect this is hurting me.i am friends with alot of you here and it makes me feel like i should choose whos side to take.
i refuse to do that because each and everyone of you mean alot to me and i love you.
i have sat back and watched alot of this unfold and to be straight forward i am totally sick too death of it.i have seen the good and the bad here.i may lose some of my friends after posting this but due what you will with it.if i lose you as a friend then it probably shows that we weren't friends to begin with.
can't we get back to supporting one another instead of fighting all the time.is this too much to ask.imagine that a support site giving support.just putting my two cents in.
anyway...Peace out "
