Before the thread was so rudely closed, I wanted to tell you that I never called you any names, and never would. I was referring to the article you posted that I felt was insane and from the twilight zone. It would only apply to you if you wrote the article, which you didn't. Since I have never called you a name, this is not an apology, it is simply to let a friend know that he misunderstood. I have never called any of our "sitemates", unless they were irresponsable FNG's, names. Many of my friends on this site have different opinions but you know I have never called them a name. It is our opinions that differ not our love and respect for each other. Hope this sets our record straight.
Now, Blue. First off, I really don't know you. To me your still an FNG around here. There is one thing I will tell you and you can do with it what you want. I don't think Scout needs your help in defending himself. I don't believe any of the "Old Reliables" on this site do. (without Gimpy's permission but he gets my drift) Now Larry and others have been a bit passionate lately because this is a difficult time in this country and blood pressures are up on both sides of the fence. But WE have been a family for years. Dysfunctional at times, BUT A FAMILY. I may be stepping out of line but I can guarentee one thing, if Scout was surrounded by the enemy, Gimpy would be one of the first to try and get him out and risk his life to do it. If the tables were turned, it would be same same. I agree it gets TOO heated around here but what do you expect from a bunch of old hot headed,opinionated, stubborn combat vets. I know one thing for sure. If my ass was on the line, Mortardude would be dropping them in the enemy's hip pocket. Stop trying to protect ourselves from ourselves. Thank you. And troops, if I'm full of shit on this, I'm man enough to take the heat. "Bring it on!"
