The latest effort at coordinated trolling by KenTX and his side kick Bobo1 demonstrates why we boycott KenTX. It is summarized in the note to Hubble by a former TYT member

    "I have purposely avoided responding to or engaging ken or bobo in any of their various antics or guises. I don't find it to be at all constructive. Sadly, I've also been participating in the forums less and less because a tone of civility and intelligent exchange seems to be completely optional. It's one thing to say, "I disagree" and explain why, it's also junior high to throw in "asshat."  I don't see myself engaging in much of anything in the forums any longer, and I do think that is sad. Thank you for your efforts and I wish them well."

We will soon consider if we should add bobo1 to the boycott because of his purposeful use of race baiting to , in his words " irritate " liberals.

If you think we should boycott bobo 1 as well please respond to MrFred or Hubble in the affirmative.

I personally think bobo demonstrates the worst of conservative "values" and makes a useful display the depravity associated with the far right fringe.

The solution proposed by KenTX / Hugh Everett/bobo to complaints about Fox and "conservative" pundits is to simply not read the offensive material, turn the channel or close your ears.

Very true, we agree. Help us clean up the TYT Forum.

I have no problem with boycotting a person on this forum. That's a matter of personal choice. But in my limited experience here, KenTX has not been the only person to initiate ad hominem attacks. I have received such attacks - from people I believe, from the nature of their posts, are liberals - simply because I am audacious enough to believe the federal government does not have the authority to require its citizens to buy health insurance. I engaged KenTX for the first time today. I will see how he responds. If he just attacks, I'll ignore him like many others because ad hominem attacks are boring. I'd like it if no one used them.
