[Noisebridge-discuss] leave (and associated belligerence)

[Mitchel McAllister]

I have not brought any scuzzy people into the space. I haven't brought *any* people into the space. 

Once again Tony proves that he and reality have ireeconcilable differences.

"Tony knows I didn't have a knife."

Bullshit. How would I know you didn't have a knife? Your attitude in the
space has continuously been extremely hostile. You bring scuzzy disruptive
people into the space. I told two people last night about the incident &
they both replied, "I'm not surprised [that you pulled a knife], he's
brutal." That's just about verbatim.

I'm not trying to make myself the center of attention, I'm trying to make
shitty behavior on the part of yourself & others the center of attention,
so it will hopefully be dealt with, since I alone obviously lack the power
to resolve it.

As of today, I officially don't care. I've reconnected with the big
beautiful world outside Noisebridge. I will be in the space sporadically
for the next week or so, then going North for a break. From that point on
my relationship to Noisebridge is going to change, from a drug addiction to
a healthier, less intimate, more sustainable relationship.

So, since no one else seems to care about this issue, I don't either. Maybe
knife fights are just the thing we need to mix it up a bit. I've got
several knives myself for prepping food in the wilderness & self-defense
(if need be). Have fun, everyone. I still think NB is a great place. I'm
coming in later today to see if I can laser cut a couple things in time for
a meeting I have tonight.
