You replied with "Once again, another example of people who disagree with them hijacking your comments without providing any proof to the contrary. This is how one shuts down the discussion." and "You may try to deny the truth to suit your own political agenda and attempt to rubbish anyone who disagrees with you by ttying to humiliate them, but people aren't stupid - they see what you are doing."
If anyone in that conversation was making "personal comments and put-downs", it wasn’t Paul…

You are just perverse. This is a discussion forum, not a court of law. If I or anyone expresses a point of view, it is not necessary to provide a link. But if you challenge that view, that is
your opinion, and only becomes more credible than that if you provide a link to support that intervention.
Assuming, of course, that the link is a factual piece and not just someone else’s opinion.
