[QUOTE="gerhard1, post: 1975807, member: 5391"] I am actually encouraged by the number of responses in so short a time. And I appreciate that they are serious responses at that. When I tried this a few years ago on this forum there were a bunch a garbage responses that resulted in a locked thread. BadgeBunny, do you remember that? Probably the best way that I would suggest is to use the PM service of this forum and you may be able to get a good initial feel for the person. After a few PM's, you might think about setting up a meet somewhere reasonable. One thing to watch out for if Obama wins the upcoming election, is federal LE setting up traps to catch 'domestic terrorists' so don't agree to do [I][B]anything[/B][/I] illegal. If the person meeting you does make any such suggestion, leave immediately. I would agree with this as well. The vast majority of the encounters I have had on these boards have been good, but I have also dealt with a few who have left a very bad taste in my mouth as well. So this is a very good idea: to use the dealing with folks on this board as a guide to vette potential group members. One other thing, and that is do not have a requirement that the members of the group be of a certain race. There a number of reasons that I say this. One is because it is simply wrong to exclude someone just because of their race. Also, my failure to make this clear led to a serious mis-understanding with one of the administrators of another forum. Another reason is because an all-White group tends to invite federal scrutiny. There are valid reasons to keep some people out, but their race is not one of them. Again, thanks for the responses, folks. [/QUOTE]
