Two clear examples of Dan's hypocrisy and inconsistency.
About a year and a half ago in a heated discussion, I repeated the charge that a member here was a child molester. This was someone else's claim that he made often and I repeated it. Dan immediately stepped in saying I couldn't do that and deleted all references. For the record that was wrong of me and I apologized.
However, repeated completely untrue claims that my late partner died of aids, a similarly vicious attack, meant only to be hurtful have drawn not a peep from Dan.
Second example. As Alan alluded to, Dan allows all these hateful attacks on various groups, gays, Blacks, Latinos ( I can't say I remember any Asian slurs, but maybe I missed it). But I do clearly remember Dan getting quite upset about an anti-semitic comment to the point that he told us all that he was Jewish and was offended. So apparently Dan only cares when it hits close to home. He is fine with others being attacked.
