No, I was referring to harassment in general and breaking it down in an intellectual manner, when someone says stop,but the person does not stop and keeps coming, it is called harassment. I used allegories and metaphors to explain this.
So no, It is NOT what I said, there for it is a lie.
If you do not like having your view and sources challenged do not post them on a public forum.
Sure seems like it is to me.

Having your views challenged vs harassment behaviors are two different things.

I only see the former. Maybe you are just being overly sensitive, but feel free to alert the authorities and get back to us on their decision.

I warned you and asked you kindly to back-off. I gave you 3 fair warnings before I blew off on you. Now that you unleashed the Casey in me, you will serve as an example to all.
These are my last words directed towards you specifically, the rest is simply to break you apart. Are you ready? Because I am ALL fired up
The troll will not quit, until he wins the argument. Presbo, is an example of this. He does not want to take the middle ground of live and let live. No, he wants to be the winner. You all witnessed me attempting to back away to avoid conflict, including a peace offering. To which, he used to his advantage in erroneously seeing a weak opening. The troll sees kindness as a weakness, so they go for what seems to be the kill. If you take the example of Casey and the bully, you can clearly see
the resemblance and allegory between the story of casey, and what you all witnessed between me and prezbo.
You could say, that prezbo is the bully beating up casey. He punches and punches, sees that casey does nothing, and he continues. The bully saw Casey's kindness as a weakness. Same way as prezbo saw the middle ground as my weakness. So he tried to go directly for the win right there.
The Parable:
Bully hits casey - Prezbo indirectly called me stupid.
This is a demoralizing taunt, seeking reaction of some sort. Notice, how I called prezbo out on being a troll AFTER many attempts of seeking a middle ground with him. AFTER he threw his punches in his sad attempts to discredit me without constructive criticism.
You shot yourself in the foot when you attempted character assassination. Especially in a thread that exposes those behaviors. That was not a smart move.
Take what is left of your dignity and backaway from me. The next time, I will be reporting you to the mods, because after a few warnings, this has escalated into harassment from your part.
When a woman says no, she means no.
When someone asks you to back away, it means he or she does not want to fight. If you continue to try and goat someone into a fight, it then turns into harassment from your part, and that is actually re portable to the authorities. Online bullying and harassment is actually against the law.
Just letting you know, where you are at right now, and my neighbor who is a police officer (Who is reading this thread with me right now) agrees with me, it is harassment, because i gave you fair warnings to back away.

I don't know about government trolls on this site, but I do recognise individual trolls and have this to offer. I shouldn't think I'm the first person to have twigged it, but here it is anyway.
Some people come to a site like this where they are likely to encounter other people of above average intelligence and they just can't quite hack it.
At first the others, who are used to dealing with intelligent people such as themselves think the troll is just wilfully mis-understanding their posts. But, it becomes apparent as the troll continues baiting that he is actually just trying to punch above his weight. It becomes clear that he doesn't have the intellectual capacity to comprehend the posts he is trying to pick apart.
He is resorting to a tactic that intellectually-challenged* people employ in the real world - he tries to hide behind belligerence, hoping that he will intimidate the more able opponents into silence so they will not expose him any further.
Thankfully, he is unable to see that he needs nobody else to expose his lack of intellect as he is making it obvious all by himself.
* That's more PC than 'thick', right?
I had no mercy towards anyone, I was an extreme sociopath, and I utterly hated the world.

man I tried getting through that video but the narrator is a little emotional and hard to put up with. he sounds whiny. and like a natural easy target for trolling.
OP I appreciate your thread. I've definitely experienced the govt. trolls thing before over posts I've made.
