    All the different blogs are at odds with each other for various reasons that I don’t understand. I have been reading Bill Scheaffer’s new blog and all it is is people from all over, every blog, just fighting and snarking at each other.

    What purpose does that serve anyone?

    Do we have a baby yet? 🙂

    Kim, it’s never going to change…never. Can’t take it to heart too much. Find some humor in it if you can bec it will go on until Casey is convicted. Good day.

    Kim in this matter ,as others, one has to set rules for OUR OWN BEHAVIOUR,Not for others to live accordingly…
    each one does as he/she thinks best.PERIOD

    How other’s live, think, or behave, is tottally up to them.

    The problem resumes in a concept IMO:
    FALSE MODESTY!
    (the presumption that we must teach others what to do, For their own GOOD !!!!)
    it’s a free world, and fortunatly so! I found the
    “disturbance” quite useful…learned that my own craziness is quite manageable, after all!!!
    (could I ask for a more positive deduction, today?)

    it is already a hell of a responsability ,for me, to educate 2 young daughters!

    let alone the presumption I should do it, TO ALL THE U.S. population or all MR Shaeffers blog followers.

    Oh I get it now, you wanna analyse psiquiatrically????

    here’s what I think: ppl were fighting for Shaeffers attention, and got territorial and beserk.

    I think he’s got more to do in life, than stare at a monitor all day.. (good for him!)

    Kim, I think it would be more accurate to ask “Why all the anomosity on that one blog?” unless I’m missing something (which sure wouldn’t be the first time). Are you saying there are other blogs that do the same? If so, I’m happy to have not run into them.

    Filipa! good to see you!

    Bee’s! a treat as always

    I have seen in fighting on almost every blog I have been to – sometimes it is ego related, sometimes personality clashes

    Are we bored? Are we mean spirited? I some how don’t think so but I am usually wrong….

    Ooops! Forgot to mention ~ let’s move on. It took a year to generate all of that bad will and it likely won’t disappear overnight but I think for all of our sakes we should just leave it alone. Are we not better than that? The REAL issue is seeking justice for Caylee, and that is a common ground on which we can ALL agree, no?

    I guess I’ve been lucky cause I honestly don’t recall running into that attitude but as I said, the bottom line is we all want the same thing and that’s what’s important. Gosh! I hope we haven’t scared off poor Bill Sheaffer.

    Lisa said, on November 12, 2009 at 2:49 pm Here is a remark that MD made ..which kind of has me going Errrrrrrr?????

    He just finishes talking about him not allowing bashing etc….but then goes on to say

    “For Bill Sheaffer, you can go to http://billsheaffer.wordpress.com or you can find a link on my sidebar. Yes, I was very nice to Bees Knees when she asked for a leaf. She had been nasty before, but I was willing to forget the past. First time, shame on her. Second time, shame on me. There will be no other time again. She is a fink with a capital R-A-T.”

    It looks like you did have a run in and are now banned from md’s blog? Well, maybe you can’t remember which would be the better thing to do since all this is nonsense anyway.

    Yeah, it’s true. But we didn’t get along very well ~ at one point he deleted some of my comments. I stuck my nose in because it has happened so often. In truth I barely even lurk there anymore because it was hurtful to see how they gang up on people. And it just happened over and over. Maybe it doesn’t go on anymore but there seem to be an awful lot of people describing the same experiences. Anyway. Boring. Let’s focus on Casey heh heh heh . . .

    I don’t know why it is necessary to argue and picker back and fourth on a Blog.
    It seems to me the busier a Blog becomes the more chances of Personalities clashing there are.
    Personally I avoid those Blogs, Life can be difficult enough at times without reading some of those Insults on varies Blogs.
    I also noticed some bickering back and forth on Bill Shaeffer’s new Blog, here again a lot of People are visiting his Blog and the Chances of starting an argumentative Discussion are pretty good.
    I have the Impression that Blog is there to keep us updated on the latest Developments in the Anthony Case and B.Schaeffer’s Take on it. There is no Way he will be able to answer All those Questions put to him, at least that is just what I think. JMO

    All one needs to do is look at Orlando or any city (Topix forum). The same fighting has been going on there for years. It has gotten to the point of the law being informed of comments. Many forums have been destroyed by the same fighting. Without moderation it is what people will do.

    from Bill S.

    thank you, Bill

    Finally, I was more than a little surprised at the number of ongoing personal and vituperative attacks between and among some of you. Again, I am new at this. But, because I am a strong proponent of the First Amendment, I would like to avoid setting up a schedule of rules for this site, if possible. I am interested in hearing from everyone, regardless of his/her opinions or positions. I learn from you too. Please. Let’s make this a place for civil discourse. It is personally very difficult and time consuming to read through all of “the other” to get to what most of you really care about: Can the State of Florida get justice for little girl Caylee Anthony? So thank you in advance.

    wish I had the answer to all the fighting on the blogs but I will not participate in any of it…I think it’s a combination of frustration and our ego that keeps the fuel fired…but in the end we ALL came together to find one thing..JUSTICE for a innocent child that was murdered…we need to stay focused on that…that was the mission we ALL started on
