Let's try it again.
First, let me say this: Carl, we love you all Northern Brothers like family... because you are, OK? Maybe you need a hug, and maybe we need to say together "It's not my fault, it's not my fault..." and have a good cry together.
...but we don't hate you.
OK, now... I think what the guy was saying is that the company is trying to float the message that that one side is growing, the other side not, in order to influence representation issues. They have put some stuff out on DeltaNet, both for Inflight and ACS suggesting same. Check it out for yourself. I can't access the IFS part from home, but it's on the ACS part (Departments>ACS>Memo from Gil Somebody).
The original poster wasn't endorsing the message, but pointing out the not-so-subtle hint he thought was being given. The reason he had to put up the part you find offensive is that quoting the company's message would be meaningless without it.
And maybe I'm wrong. Maybe he wasn't alluding to that ACS/IFS message, and just looking at fleets, and all he was saying is that the company is in fact shrinking one side to drive a message, I still don't think he was making any derogatory or false statements. We did park the B-747-200, and we are parking DC-9's. That's not offensive: it's only true. We also both parked 757's, as you say. OK, fine. No matter which way you look at this, you have to really want to be offended, in order to end up offended.
I think that's why there weren't any (other) debates after his post.

So you're saying that someone can make a totally false statement in his first sentence, but make up for it by the context of the following sentence? Not in my world. If the first sentence is false, follow up sentences don't help.
And again for review, here is the guy's full post and the false first sentence in bold...
If he wanted to talk about representational issues, it would have been far more impactful to not have false statements. Especially, false statements that are degrading to a former employee group. I thought we were all done with that already.

Go Saints. Been a fan since Bum Philips was the coach. Used to go to the home games in the Superdome with 4,000 other fans (the dome was built for 80k), and we'd all have bags on our head.
I'd very much like to seem them "marching in" to MSY this year...that town would go nuts and drink itself into oblivion....well, more so than usual, anyway. Anyplace that has drive-thru daiquiri stores is someplace I'm proud to call home.

Wow. Didn't see that coming. 4th down with 2 min left and they're tossing it into the endzone for a TD? Favre. I guess PHL just made DAL look unstoppable.
If SAN is in tonight then the games next week ought to be four power houses slaming into each other at full speed.

Good game Cowboys Fans <no sarcasm intended>
Think I saw her in the game today. Wasn't she wearing the #9 jersey?
No..............that was Romo. Was just on the ground so much with sacks (6), couldn't tell the difference between who was the QB and who the Cheerleaders were. ![Big Grin](https://www.airlinepilotforums.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
For all the DAL-S brethren. NASCAR in 28 days!!
Viking Fan
(All previous insults towards Romo and the Cowboys made it jest, of course.)
