No trolls allowed

I don’t mind people disagreeing with me, but I do ask you to do two things:

1) Reveal your true identity. Even if you don’t want to reveal your name, provide a real email address since the email address isn’t published.
2) Be respectful.

Why should I give you a platform on my blog and take the time to respond to you if your only intention is to put me down. It’s one thing to disagree with my opinions and be willing to debate/discuss (which I welcome). It’s another thing to say I’m a dumb ass and retard and expect me to respond to that positively. When’s the last time you ever personally attacked someone and had them respond by saying, “Wow, thank you so much for calling me a dumb ass! I appreciate your comment!”
