Buzsaw Permanently Suspended

I certainly had a lot of disdain for buz's fundamentalism, which I think I've demonstrated a number of times. I didn't much like him and I'm sure he didn't particularly care for me. I've mentioned once or twice that he reminds me of my father, who has been a fundie since the mid 80s. I love my father dearly, but I have no more patience for his close-minded attitudes than I do for buz's.I think buz might be a fine man; I imagine him to be the type that would do most anything for you, without regard for your religious views or even your sexuality, if he felt that you truly needed his help. That's the type of man my dad is - a good person who just happens to be wrong about almost everything.So in that spirit I would like to offer my sincere best wishes to buz. I probably won't miss him much, but if my vote counts for anything I would vote to allow him back with full posting rights. He was a harmless old coot, albeit a highly annoying one. As such, he was one of those irritating people who serve to make life more interesting.

Aw, come on Percy, let him back in. For all his myriad faults, he never was one to resort to personal attacks (unless I'm very much mistaken, please let me know if I am), which is more than can be said for some long-time members who are still here - myself included, at least in one or two instances. He's an old man who will probably never be able to debate in good faith; he never learned how to begin with and he's too old to change. We make accomodations for others who have difficulty participating, why can't we do the same for buz?Maybe for every future forum violation he could be suspended for one week rather than the usual 24 hours. The same rule could be imposed on anyone else who's had a certain number of shorter suspensions.
