Can't We Disagree, Without Being Disagreeable?

This blog has been on the receiving end of some nasty online comments recently, including today on Nextdoor.com in the Crime section for Beaverdam Valley.  We have been accused of "inflaming neighborhood sentiment to the point of perpetuating(sic) . . . vandalism"

I believe the posts and comments in this blog have included pointed criticism of plans and actions we oppose, but we have not ventured into the use of malicious or violent language to describe those we oppose.

Probably most of the opinions we hold, on a whole range of issues, are in agreement with those held by our neighbors on the other side of the dog park issue.  We should not let our disagreement on this, let's face it, minor issue, turn friendly neighbors into enemies.
