Just curious, how was what searl said a personal attack? Maybe an attack against all smokers, but I thought a personal attack is against one person?

if she said it about all smokers
and I'm a smoker
then it's a personal attack.

If she stated most smokers then that's a different story..

But she said all which logistically implies me included which I take personally hence the personal attack.

If you were say Mexican and I said all mexicans should be deported, would you take it personal? If I said mexicans here illegally, maybe not so much. See what I'm saying?

I see it but I think you are taking it a little too personally :confused3

If someone came up to you and basically told you you have no respect for yourself and that you disgust them. Would you take it personally?

I think a personal attack would be more along the lines of actually using your name and the accusation in the same sentence. Since she said all smokers it was more of a broad accusation. Yes, you are offended and you take it personally but I don't see it as a personal attack.

So basically I can become a bigot and generalize other races,. creeds etc in the open and can feel good about myself because I didn't specifically name drop?
And said race, creed, etc shouldn't take it personal?
I gaurantee you that wouldn't be the case

No, not at all. You are upset and rightfully so. You are a smoker and feel that you have the right to smoke, as you do in the legally designated places. The PP feels that all smoking should be banned and that smoking is a foul habit. She denigrated your right to smoke but actually DID NOT call you out specifically. Anybody has the right to feel the way they want. We cannot stop telling people how to feel. But to actually act upon feelings? There are laws that prevent that.
 
Please if some of you want to argue, then do it through PMs....this is a funny thread to read then people have to start arguing between each other.
Seriously, take it to the PMs....it has nothing to do with the topic..Don't ruin it for everyone else, thanks!:thumbsup2

Sorry, you're right! I can't believe how long it got too!

Other gross things at WDW: People who wear see through clothing with visible underwear on underneath. Or no underwear on underneath! Especially after coming off of Splash Mtn. or KRR!
 
Bull****. Also, if I said all fat people disgust me and don't respect their bodies, I can guarantee you that a lot of overweight people on here would take it personal............it's no different.

I guess but I still don't see it as a personal attack it was a broad statment.

It's a double standard isn't it.. If I were to post here saying something about someone's religion, I would've gotton a repremand. But I didn't personally call some one out.

But here because I'm a smoker, and being demonized but not outright, it's acceptable to the fact that she shouldn't be penalized for her opinion.

I hear what you are saying but if rules are made for generalizing things shouldn't that go for all things?
