As I agree with you mostly, I also feel there are two sides to every story. That being said, I'm sure alot of members who have been here for awhile have seen/heard too many things that have made them uneasy. As a result they may tend to overreact.
I am a newbie myself, and have already seen some posts that have made my jaw hit the floor! That alone has made me react a certain way to other future posts about a same topic. I'm guilty, I'll admit it.
At the end of the day I think most of us share the same passion here. Our love for animals and their safety. Different people react differently to different situations. Did I say different enough?!
Unless someone is just COMPLETELY out of line when posting a response such as name calling, breaking YT rules, etc then I feel any OP should be aware that not EVERYONE is going to share their same views. Some are more "blunt" about it than others, but the message is still the same. I am fully aware anytime I post that there may be someone on here with different views than what I'm stating and may verbalize that to me. That is when I put on my thick skin and remember that I came here asking, and should be prepared to hear all kinds of answers. Even if it's one I may not like or necessarily want to.
