Yes, I've sued all parties for this trauma, and it is real. However, when people joke about it on the board, I'm smart enough to recognize the context and join along. It does not diminish what I feel that SFT and Gestapo have done to me. You'll be reading about it in the latest papers who want to tell the truth. But I wouldn't tell the MB to leave that area alone - they have full access to it, and I don't believe in complete political correctness. Enjoy!"

This person wasn't being light. This person has sued SFT and company and was trying to say that light hearted banter about PTS isn't the end all or be all of the disorder that this person is experiencing. Be kind and gentle at times. This person is not your enemy although we (who are in the room now) are now trying to talk this person out of feeling worse about him/her self.  Seriously, gang - be careful who you attack. Now the trolls have come in to have some fun.

Why don't you go there and visit that message board rather than coming here to stir it up?

I've tried to be pleasant to you, given the fact that you were upset. I tried to shut this thing down, but you kept kicking it back up, so here goes:

You obviously have problems, of which I am the cause of NONE. You have misplaced anger and are lashing out at those who meant no harm to you personally. You have received about as much understanding from this board as you will get.

I do believe that some faculty and staff will eventually suffer from PTSD, just as I believe that some now suffer from Stockholm Syndrome. If the same psychiatrists and psychologists that diagnosed you with PTSD can also diagnose PTSD in those who are traumatized by the outcome of the 2004 presidential election, then there is a good chance that the Thames era will cause PTSD in some faculty.

If you persist in keeping this alive, I'll be forced to consult my encyclopedia of politically incorrect jokes. Otherwise, consider yourself offended and move on...I do it every day when someone makes a statement that questions my heritage or impugns my character...Be a "man" and let it go.
