Question about a deleted post.

I replied to this post with a subject line that was a play on this poster's phrasing then composed two paragraphs discussing why the poster's anti-choice stance would not work. Since I didn't call the poster names or otherwise cast asparagus in the text, I'm guessing that my subject line was deemed a personal attack because I turned back the assertion onto the poster. If this was the case, how is what I posted any more confrontational than common retorts like "Educate yourself?"

1. That person is a troll.

Thanks for bringing that person to my attention. That's a troll. I banned the account.

As for your post, it was removed because the mods read the subject as a personal attack. Technically, I think it was. But given the fact that the troll you are responding to has been banned, I went ahead and undeleted.

2. Thanks, but it really was intended only as using the person's same phrasing to make a point

but I can see how mods may interpreted as an attack. I appreciate that you reinstated my reply.
