I told Calvin from Alabama he was a troll and he blocked me?

The question is - If you're pretending to be someone else should you block someone when you're called on it?

    I've noticed that there are a lot of users that block you once you call them out or prove them wrong. Seems to be the thing to do around YA. I don't let it bother me. Just means that I won and they clearly surrendered. Anyone who has to resort to blocking, I don't respect their political opinion too much after that anyhow.

    Some one blocked me for calling him a troll. I don't remember who it was... Blocking and reporting is so childish. I answered a question today and someone had deleted it by the time I hit submit. There was nothing wrong with the question.

    Alabama is such a poorly represented state. I have alot of family there and grew up a large portion of my childhood there.

    I'm not a redneck member of the KKK and neither is my family. They're just Conservatives who live in a tiny little town outside of a small town next to a decent sized town. They have their own livestock. Chickens, llamas, emus, pigs, cows.

    My favorite. Over 100 head of Appaloosa and Paints. And about 80 head of cattle. They don't breathe fire and slaughter their animals and eat meat all day. They raise them and slaughter what's needed. But usually they trade goods for organic vegetables that are grown in the "middle of nowhere" likely what you eat but only unprocessed.

    Because they do these things they're viewed at as rednecks. I'll have you know this. My mother was born the daughter of a poor Mississippi sharecropper and Irish immigrant. She became ill after she first had me and I had to suckle on her best friend's nipple, because she had just had a baby. This woman is black.

    It's not what you hear on TV

    Amused. I see no rationale to be disturbed that bigots only wish to hear the delusional rants of different bigots. I assume that so much out of them. However i have handiest been blocked by means of two trolls that i do know of. Maybe that's due to the fact that I more commonly don't feed the trolls by means of replying to their drivel.

    I`ve got the same problem with that roving dude that keeps changing his avatar. Now he`s taken to blocking me before i get a chance to answer any of his garbage.

    actually I think he really is from 'Bama

    People can block without justifying it.

    I hope this was of use

    Just to let you know, you're chatting and that is against community guidelines.

    I'm not going to report, just making myself clear.
