EvilGentleman: I find it frustrating that when I ridicule the trash-talkers, my comment gets deleted, yet the prejudiced trash-talk remains. I thought citynoise upheld higher ideals than what I have seen lately. I am getting increasingly disappointed with what I see. Why is this thread still even open?

The Scientology Connection (from a former Scientologist): I hope this isn't a repeat entry... but as someone who was in Scientology for longer than I want to admit, I can say that the photo isn't enough to go on, no matter what anyone says about it.
