[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]Welcome to DU!

I don't know what happened before, but I do note from an earlier post that you just turned 18, so you get considerable leeway for being (1) young and (2) new.

I hope you quickly learn to sift out the considerable amount of good stuff from the inevitable amount of internet bullshit here.

There are lots and lots of good, smart, caring people here at DU and perusal is well worth your time if you can avoid getting caught up in the frequent internecine drama.

Enjoy!

I don't want to go into detail but it includes a friend and a facebook status I didn't like.

for more of a "comeback" .

a rebuttal implies that one is supposed to take what you said he said seriously and argue those "points" when it was just bs.

a comeback is more of something to tell him off.

there are too many right wingers who come on and post things like that so people can get the wrong idea.

And I respect it when people dare to apologize. That is a seriously rare skill.

Anyway, you are good.
