Let me get this straight......you should be able to say anything you want about anybody and if they are offended then it is THEIR fault ??? :shocked: Utter B.S.

So.....let's get down to serious business. I have EXTREMELY STRONG feelings about people who feel it is somehow necessary to carry a deadly weapon around with them all the time.......and also feel a need to brag about it in unrelated forums.

Would you like to hear what names I sometimes use to characterize people who do that?

No, we're not going to do that here but it is only slightly different than saying people who don't wear helmets are stupid.

Well, what good is a non-deadly weapon?

BTW, that's a very good comparison, the helmet and the gun thing.

Dear me, this IS getting interesting. Where's the smiley that's eating a bag of popcorn? I really hope this isn't going to blow up in to a multi-subject flame war, especially since the subjects that have been brought up are just a wee-bit touchy to both sides of the coin. Next thing you know racial or political slurs are going to be flying. Seriously, one of the great attributes I've seen in this place is the overwhelming civility and friendliness that it normally exhibits. Let this thing go for crying out loud before someone really DOES get offended and/or banned.

Patrick, are you regretting accepting that admin position yet? I stick with what I said before, just try not to get too stressed out.

Arthur-----hoping this isn't going to turn in to another forum where everyone has to walk on egg-shells to avoid offending someone and/or being yelled at......and who readily admits to having taken part in said yelling, and having recieved said yelling----- Just my .02
Ride safe

Naw, this is pretty light from a lot of places I've been. It won't get out of hand.

This is one of the more civilized forums and I have visited a fair bunch in the last couple years. There is rarely bad language and we accept the right to agree to disagree with another's views without throwing stones. Most members here have a mature attitude towards riding and life in general.

I've been in plenty of crappy forums too. For a little while anyway. This is nothing. Just a few people who dont share the same opinion.

I doubt it gets out of hand too. It would have already if it were going to.

BTW, that's a very good comparison, the helmet and the gun thing.

Was that sarcasm?

That's exactly what I intend to do.

Easy Rider,
If you want to continue the conversation, we can discuss it in PMs.
