If the actions of XXXX group already took place then of course you can say it was silly or clownish- but calling the group derogatory terms before they've done anything is baiting if you ask me. If this thread is not baiting then all of us here have an obligation to define the rules a bit more so that others can also start threads with these intentions. It's not if I am interested or not- it's the future implications of allowing actions like this to be tolerated. Misconstrue is another word for "you do not think like I do"- so if you "misconstrue" anyone's future threads as offensive or baiting as I or others do this one then they could then be dismissive and tell you "I suggest you move on" ???
