You are not responding to some 'BF lynch mod' but to an individual (me). I would love to see you support your hysteria and paranoia with posts of mine... If your right feel free to shame me... However, if you recognize that you are not only mistaken, but way overboard in your behavior, then simply apologize (most especially for your first statement quoted above)... However, given past examples I will not hold my breath, I can certainly see why you would be concerned with people making your behavior public...

The bible also mentions stoning those who violated community standards... So perhaps it isn't all wrong... Or pehaps some simply have issues with their interpretations.

And communities that believe that end up with the highest crime rates (for crimes commited upon them by their neighbors) in the nation.

Baloney!
Informing on people to their employer or other agencies to "shame" them can be despicable when carried out by people with a grudge or who seek revenge, or who feel it their duty to enforce community standards. And that is exactly what was intended by the original post by Skye, revenge and spite.
Do you recommend that all BF people inform employers or the police on anyone (including friends and family) who smoke a joint? Should they inform employers and police whenever they see someone violate the traffic code (cycling or driving)? If not, why not? How about if they see someone they know dining or at a club with someone not their spouse, should the other spouse and the employer be informed of this information? If not why not? You should take the idea of the public good of shaming by informing on others back to where it came from.

You can get thousands more by doing a google search for 'snitching taboo'...
And you want some Irish Catholic examples? Modify that for Irish mob snitching taboo. Here are just a single example

I have been around on this forum long enough to recognize that you like to make up extreme hypotheticals and most importantly MISREPRESENT what someone else has posted to make you ludicrous points and further your jihad against anything you disagree with.
Anyone who wishes to can read my posts. They are clear. Shaming is a wonderful tool for communities to maintain their standards. And attempts to misuse such tools backfire on those attempting to use them if the person is lying or the behavior doesn't actually violate community standards.
Now is that clear enough to make it through your preconceptions?

I reposted the post you are responding to, to give you a chance to actually read it.
