well, i guess the promotion of your beliefs and ideals mustn't be very important to you if you delete your posts because people respond to them in a way you don't care for.

BTW - post deletion is bad form. just tell us you've changed your mind, or you think we're stupid, or your panties are really starting to pinch - but don't delete.

Why bother when there's an abundance of apathy?

So THAT's what happened. I thought I was gonna have to check in with wolf there for a minute.

I wondered what happened.. damn as always a day late and a dollar short.. and oh SHIT! where are my pants!

Hell! I'm lost also. Maybe on purpose?

sniff sniff, did someone just shit in my airplane and bail out? :turd: :smack:

what a dork.

don't worry CH & bust, i was a day late and a buck short too....

eh? what can you do? KEEP POSTING!!! AH-HA-HA-HA-HA! in the mainc sort of way..

They feel in their utopian society you don't need a gun. Therein lies their flaw. They have no comprehention of using a gun for anything other than committing or preventing a crime. :(

feh. that's not just in utopia. that's in this country as well. Guns Are Bad™ is this generation's Just Say No. Utterly useless and illogical, but when adhered to, gives one the feeling of Doing Something About The Crime Problem.

Initial Caps Are Fun.

sorry.. like the Anarchists.. sorry but when everyone is 'equal' the ones with the most teststerone and guns will be telling the rest of us what to do... since no-one will duel me with a sword. I keep a gun.. yeah the bullets are in the car... but... if someone breaks in... oh lordy will they have a suprise! (took 4 years of fencing, until I broke my wrist in a duel.. worth every bit of it too! great fight!)

Those who beat their swords into plowshares will plow for those who didn't.

Freedom is not empowerment. Empowerment is what the Serbs have in Bosnia. Anybody can grab a gun and be empowered. It's not entitlement. An entitlement is what people on welfare get, and how free are they? It's not an endlessly expanding list of rights -- the 'right' to education, the 'right' to health care, the 'right' to food and housing. That's not freedom, that's dependency. Those aren't rights, those are the rations of slavery -- hay and a barn for human cattle. There's only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences. - P.J. O'Rourke

Ooh.. I LIKE that one. I'll have to add it to my quotes list. Basically the last couple of sentences:

"There's only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences. "

That's what's missing...taking the consequences.

And Rita Rudner's mother cleans them...

Oh, yeah...he's right on that one. If you're coming here for warm fuzzies, you landed on the wrong planet. This is the CELLAR, babe...and the first rule you learn (took me a while-just ask Wolf) is: grow a thick skin...yes indeed...something along the lines of alligator or armadillo.... Eventually, you learn not to take it personally, even if it is. ESPECIALLY if it is. :lol:
