Yes it is a severe clash of cultures. Some here are more concerned with their anti-American, anti-Constitutional politics than with common sense survival.

You are more concerned with where I live than in what I say based on fact and history.

As for the calling of names?? I try to refrain from that no matter what kind of foolishness you post. All while getting constant PM warnings to "play nice" while the abuse is being heaped on.

If one searches my entire post history there is not a single instance where I referred to anyone as a "dickhead", "asshole" or any other derogatory term while these insults have been thrown at me constantly due to presentation of factual information that bursts some bubble of fantasy.

If I "obviously have a lot to offer" then quit trying to force me to say what is "acceptable" instead of what is accurate, or to simply force me to go away and leave you to your continuous search for Never-Never Land.

I must admit that being here has been a very enlightening experience, has helped me form new opinions and has reinforced lessons taught by my mentors.
