But his reference to mind control set you off on assaulting him on a personal level with very rude comments. These and other personally critical posts by you are something you should apologize for and learn better manners. His language was not rude or personal. Yours was.

Naturally, I never see that kind of language from you when you're communicating with people that agree with your viewpoint. They're your buddies. But for those that don't fully agree with you, they see the full wrath of rekmeyata in all its ugliest forms.
If you are right and it was exaggeration and I heard it directly from him that indeed it was such then YES, I would apologize to him, BUT I'm not going to apologize to him just because you, or someone else said that's what he meant, because only he knows what he meant.

As far as my little buddies...I don't have any little buddies here, they all hate me here!
