`  = block contest = {{unblock}} * You called my hard work of explanation a ``rant`` KillerChihuahua ** That was a personal attack on me, especially since I was only answering Bishonen's accusations which apparantly you never read, and neither did you read my responses. *** If you did read them, and still did what you did this reflects badly on you. * I haven't been told precisely why I have been blocked. i.e. personal attacks to who? ** Bishonen or KillerChihuahua? * Please clarify the personal attacks. I've already put plenty of time and research into my defense. Can you show me the same courtesy? Thanks for that. * I explained reasons for hostility above. Reading should clarify my position and my actions. * A small amount of looking on my talk page, and following my conversations to others talk pages, will show that I am kind and considerate when spoken to with a minimum of kindness and consideration. * A small amount of looking here, for instance http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Democratic_Party_%28United_States%29#Archived will show how I have been attacked by a jealous band of article guards. ** Please see above as to history * I believe in honesty and when unfairly attacked by a group, I tend to respond with my side of the story see my statement of response to bishonen. Please follow the references that I have listed. * I believe in being helpful and have reached out to several stressed Esperanzans (found on the Esperanzan stress list here  []) * I will not be told what to say or how to say it unless it makes sense somehow ** I refuse to speak NewSpeak *** I am old enough to control my own words. I make no excuse for them as they need no excuse. Same goes for my actions.   Thanks for telling me how to do this the correct way  I honestly don't know if I'll get it right, but I'm trying. Maggie `
