Emotions sometimes make us hypocrites. But, then we have to acknowledge that. I often say that we should not judge our communication solely by its correctness but also by it's results. The results of my communication have been a feeling from many that I do NOT want radicals or Anarchists in the LP. That is a failure of my communication. It is NOT what I wanted to say and I am sorry for that message. I both want and need you. My message was supposed to be directed at one individual. It looks like my emotions pushed it too far. Again, I apologize because that was NOT my intent. Thank you Caryn Ann Harlos for bringing this to my attention. I need to practice the same empathy that I expect.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal>On Sat, May 20, 2017 at 9:19 AM Caryn Ann Harlos <<a href="mailto:carynannharlos@gmail.com">carynannharlos@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p></div><blockquote style='border:none;border-left:solid #CCCCCC 1.0pt;padding:0in 0in 0in 6.0pt;margin-left:4.8pt;margin-right:0in'><div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Thank you Larry for your heartfelt post- I'm on a phone and it won't let me copy/paste here.
