Dave:
Another point. You made a comment about Joe allowing other points of view. I'm assuming your talking about some form of censorship for what may offend you. Well, your blanket comment offended me. I'm not gonna go crying foul or anything like that, I respond. If ya can't take it, don't dish it out.
I fully expect to hear responses to my comments if I say anything that might offend someone. See, that's what WAS great about our country, people could have opposing views and be allowed to voice them without repercussion (unless they got totally rude and obnoxious).
What I'm seeing now (and again, this is not one side or the other) is that someone makes a comment, and if someone else disagrees, the 1st crys FOUL and wants them banned or shut off.
I'm glad that Joe still allows us all equal opportunities to make asses out of ourselves from time to time. A place where adult guys can still go to and be guys. And women women and kids kids. Don't know how many critters post here though (although they probably do when nobodys watchin em). God Bless Ya Joe! A TRUE American!
I've seen it happen way to often, the sites pretty cool, then one person makes an absurd comment, and someone else responds equally absurdly. Party #1 gets all bent outa shape because they're view was contested and goes crying to the moderator of the site via emails. Next thing ya know, the Senso-nazis are in control.
NOW HERE COMES THE DISCLAIMER
Dave, I do not know you personally. Odds are that we share many similar views. Even though we may disagree on this one point, I DO NOT hate or dislike you and am NOT intending to bash you as a person. Just by the simple fact of you being here at this site shows me that no matter what, you are good people. Uh Oh, that sounds like a politican to me. Look what you started Clint. So ya say I can count on your 10 votes in 08? HA!
Later
