Whence the attitude, David Green?

Dear David Green,

Two displays of attitude in one day, on the same list, makes me
wonder where that attitude is coming from. I'm struck by how many
"sn***" words apply to that attitude shown to Jerry and now to
Richard: sneering, snotty, snippy, sniping. But where does this
come from? Who are you, whose interests are you trying to
defend in your attacks, in short, why are you acting this way?

Some comments:

OK, you're angry at Richard and contemptuous of ACT, I suppose.
Why? Why not come out from your sniper's position and speak up *for*
whatever it is you think you're defending by this display of
attitude?

 Better yet-------

So this means you regard all questions raised by ACT
concerning TSA administration as silly? Just guessing.

No, David, it is absolutely not possible. There are far
too many people, Theosophists and not, who have noticed
and commented upon this same CF for it to be a "mere projection"
of Richard's. Call it a mere projection of all the hundreds
or thousands who have experienced it, if you must, but you
can't blame it solely on him.

Here appears to be a gratuitous sneer at Jerry,
whose position you don't seem to have tried
to explore and understand before dismissing
and dissing it. Wasn't once enough?

Why is it easier and more fun for you to
behave this way than to drop the snotty
posturing and engage in constructive,
respectful dialogue?

WHERE ARE YOU COMING FROM?
