Reply #62: NO! I love your TOONS! I appreciate your hard work!

In a community of 80k people (or whatever DU is now), you're gonna piss some people off. It's a given. I've been called a freeper before and I've been here since the beginning in 2001, and have over 10k posts spread out over those 5 years.

If someone has a problem with a toon you posted, the classy thing would have been to send you a private message asking about the choice of that toon. The worst offenders in the PC game are the ones that refuse to look at your body of work, so to speak, to see that 99.9% of your toons did not offend their sensibilites, and to understand who you are as a person and that you are not trying to hurt anyone, and are certainly not a racist. Instead, people get their panties in a bunch and have to attack in public.

We've had more than a few threads here wherein someone took the paternal attitude of "protecting" another race, by going ballistic over a perceived slight. Yes, we should all condemn racism. But.. people who take it upon themselves to feel offended for someone else, and then attack over it, is just misguided or egotistical.

Please don't stop the toons... :grouphug:
