Re: Sattler College Turmoil

You're seemingly so used to shoving people around that you feel entitled to it. So when brothereicher didn't bow to your rigged ground rules (rules you couldn't follow yourself—I just checked), you apparently concluded that gives you license to lie about him.

Re: Sattler College Turmoil

Well, that's all well and good, but I've only met him online, and I have only seen his online rhetoric and debate tactics, and the last several pages have been clearly engaged in in bad faith, as I have documented.
