First of all....you dont know whether or not it has a direct correlation to me. for all you know, I could be pregnant, or know someone who was affected by violence towards a pregnant woman. So dont assume that what he said has nothing to do with me.
Irrelevant, he didn't make his comment with you in mind, and he didn't intentionally aim his comment at you in particular, nor did he insult you personally. Just because you MAY be pregnant doesn't mean he had you in mind when making a comment about a newstory.
Second of all, obviously if he is posting complete crap to get a reaction, then he is doing it purposely to offend people, which is against the forum rules to begin with.
You are wrong, posting something that may be taken as offensive by some people is NOT against the rules, unless it's sole purpose is to be offensive to everyone by using foul language or insults. Now, if he had posted something with an insult to another member (like you did) that IS against the rules. He didn't, he made a statement pertaining to the topic, which may or may not have had teh intention of offending, just because he wanted to get a reaction doens't mean he doesn't believe what he said, nor does it mean he wanted to offend people. Doing something for a reaction and purposely offending people is not the same thing.
I have a right to express my opinion as well. Which in my opinion he is a complete ass for posting what he did. And if he's going around posting that he thinks its funny when pregnant women get tazered, then I doubt that 'retarded' is the worst thing he's been called.
Not if your opinion involves name calling and insults because he made a vague comment that you didn't like. THAT is against the rules, my dear. Find a way to express yourself without insulting someone.
Vague, smartass comments aimed at poking fun at a topic is not against the rules.
