Do you count it as a win and laugh when someone blocks you after you present them with facts on here?

Personally, I think that it is hilarious.

I know both sides do it, so the posts to this saying "Conservatives" or "Liberals" are pointless, because both are equally guilty of it.

    yes, and when they report me. Lets me know I have gotten under their skin and I not only won but am also the better person. I love the smell of being blocked..it smells like VICTORY!

    I think it is a reinforcement that you hit a nerve and perhaps gave them facts they couldn't handle.

    I never block first but generally only do so when blocked by others who don't like my links and facts.

    I think the blocking tool should be revisited by YA because it takes away a lot from the site. If you can't answer questions because someone has taken umbrage at being presented with facts, it really points to silliness.

    But, Silly does tend to show up a lot here. This site is not for the thin skinned.

    I do take a certain twisted pleasure in being blocked by someone whose question I've answered and they simply cannot debate my logic. But it also pisses me off when someone blocks me whom I have never had an exchange with... apparently because he/she does not even want to try to get my viewpoint. To me, that's just a sign of a very weak ego.

    Yes it's so cute.

    I recently had a dispute with "facts made cons cry" I'm not sure if he's here anymore but he called be a con and said that I was crazy and had all the "facts."

    Funny thing is, he blocked me and start making questions directed toward me, I found the act very tedious.

    I consider it a badge of honor to have someone block me after I use their arguments against them. It's mostly thin skinned Libs.

    A block is a sure sign that you've either won the argument or called BS on BS.

    Devoted to truth blocked me, so that says something.
