[QUOTE="dutchwrangler, post: 2457531, member: 4650"] Shucks, the fact that as is often the case, instead of backing up viewpoints with countering facts, it comes down to attacking me personally. Classic Saul Alinsky tactic. And proof that what I'm saying is hitting a nerve for one reason or another. I'll hazard a guess that those who cry loudest with the greater degree of mockery are those who would like to keep the facts hidden as they tend to have a vested interest in doing so. Of course, it's to be expected from some to repudiate my character with an attempt to imply something I'm not without knowing me personally. To say that I'd be right at home on a forum that promotes racism is laughable considering my ethnicity and familial relation to an adopted sibling and in-laws who aren't of my ethnicity. Granted I know that those who have issues with me are in a protected clique within the forum. So be it. Oddly enough, my only intent is to actually speak about truth. Granted I may make a comment or two about silly posts such at Post #12, etc... but those are few. And over the years here I've only strived to encourage people to think about Freedom first and foremost. Not the pseudo freedom of national-socialism popular on this forum, but Freedom as gifted to all humans by our Creator. The level of Freedom enjoyed by lesser species of animals that seems to elude humans simply because there is always a small group of people with money and power who view everyone beneath them. I suppose it is for this reason why many mock me... they have their little bit of useless power on this forum and attempt to laud it over those who disagree with their viewpoints. Which eventually results in the personalization of their attacks simply because they don't have the ability to refute differing views with facts. It is what it is I suppose. In the end, I'm just plugging away out here in the real world watching and listening. I rarely share my viewpoints to anyone I actually know as that's really not my style. But since I don't know anyone on this forum personally, I feel comfortable sharing. However, unlike some, I refrain from getting personal as it serves no point and because I don't know anyone here at that level. It is after all, the internet. It's a game. Nothing more. :) [/QUOTE]
