I think you're picking nits here, so I'll pick back! Somerset is about 30 miles from the Tenn border in a county that is less than 19 miles from the border. It does not actually touch the border, but it's just one county away from touching. It seems this is more of a minor distinction than a clever manipulation of facts.

Yes, he had stats. That's not the issue.

Well, I will respectfully disagree. The truth is always the issue in a forum that is asking for honest opinions.

The issue is he made the same post in 3 different forums. His original post was kept, but his other ones were removed. He had made similar posts a few months ago, too, using the same stats.

I've done that as well. Not every one sees the original thread; sometimes the same question is asked in different threads; sometimes the post is slightly different; sometimes the posts are months apart, as you've indicated is the case here. And I doubt there is a poster here who has never made duplicate posts, especially months apart. I think you are trying to enforce a rule that we all bend because you don't like what he is posting.

The Terms of Service also say to be respectful and to avoid inflammatory language. When he said that cities in Tennessee are nothing but "cesspools of criminals and drunks" that's crossing the line.

I would agree that comment crosses the line and he should receive a warning.

I would hope that this kind of behavior is not tolerated in Kentucky any more than it's tolerated in Tennessee.

That's something I'd expect a criminal or a drunk to say.

OK - I am totally kidding! Honest! See, a smilie! For the record, I like Tennessee and almost everyone I've met from there is friendly and nice.

The ONLY reason I have even come into the Kentucky forum was to see what else this person has been up to.

I think you can see from the response here that we don't have a problem with him. Again, I can totally understand why he is irritating you, but my feeling is that a calm and well reasoned response to his posts would be more effective.

I'm close to beating a dead horse here and don't won't to seem hostile, so as a courtesy, I'll let you have the final word if you want it.
