I don't think it is that people are "out to get" anyone specifically although there are a few posters that do seem to get an inordinate amount of attention from some of you, it is that there is a group that does "protect" their own regardless of the situation. Yes it exists and at times it is ridiculous. Maybe it isn't a coordinated effort, I would have no way of knowing if it is since I'm not a part of it, but it's there and most of us know who makes up the group.

Maybe you've just banded together organically because you actually do agree with each other most of the time and are a minority of the political and philosophical leanings on CB, I'd be willing to believe that is the case, but that doesn't dismiss the tactics and behavior, coordinated or not they exist.
