We have no such rules.

Hell, some of us on CF own guns, why would we stop anyone mentioning them.

I don't use a third party to filter my posts. I deem them to be successful because of the cases where I have have taken matters further, I have been succeeded in getting things changed.

If you aren't prepared to explain what you're talking about and why a particular post could be construed as insulting/offensive then I am unable to help you with this any further.

The legislation will be open to you as well as everyone else, but you will obviously be expected to state exactly what the issue is

Okay, because you have an disability which makes you incapable of understanding certain things. I'll treat you really special like no other because you deserve it. - Does that sound offending to you or even slightly condescending in any way? What if the person wants to be treated like anyone else. Those that aren't defined by their disabilities and want to be well, just 'normal'. What you said was in fact bang out of order.

Yeah if that is indeed true I think you’ll find it’s likely you got your own way for other reasons.

Please don’t allow there to be any confusion in this so pay particular attention: it will be a cold day in Hell before I’d want, need or seek any help from you

Well it's not like you say much here or overrule certain people is it. Only when required. Such as now.

If you didn't take it as resolved you should have raised it with Mick at the time instead of waiting for six months to do so.

You weren't threatened with legal action for your discriminatory comment, you were told to stop harrassing me by PM and refused.

Details of said comment have been kept on file...

I have already accepted and agreed that those in non protected groups have remedies open to them. In fact, this may be the only way for this to be resolved

Thank you. Assuming that this is also what Russ was getting at, the answer is simple.

People have a moral and certain legal duties to make adjustments when dealing with disabled people and their vastly varying conditions.

For example, not taking into account the fact that someone is autistic is akin to admonishing a wheelchair user for not standing up in church!

I see that you are resorting to rudeness and (deliberately or otherwise) failing to convey what you actually mean, so I am now bringing our conversation to a close.

Do they also have moral and legal duties to make thinly-veiled passive aggressive pops dressed up as “compassion” too?

What if a disabled person has made it crystal clear that they do not want or need your “adjustments”? Why would you take it on yourself to override their request?

What can I say. You won't like what I have to say and above all you won't accept anything I can say. So what's the point. Just live with the fact that we do.
