it seems like about once a month the same people get on here and start a post or two complaining about other people and their thoughts.

You would think that in a country who the biggest topic of concern being the 2nd amendment and gun control, would also remember the part from the constitution about free speech.

Jody, right,(if your not Jody you should really meet him I think you would get along great) it is not the thoughts that are the problem, nor the right to free speech, it is their lack of ability to convey their thoughts in a polite and respectable manner.
For me, about a month is all I can take before I feel that I need to exercise my right to free speech. Opinion and thoughts are fine, just seems if for some that if your thoughts and opinions are not the same as theirs they need to start the negativity and name calling.

If you tie a ball on a peice of baling wire- and tie it to a barn rafter-- pull it back, and let it go....... it swings both ways...

I believe I have always tried to be honest, direct, and non-punishing when I have posted, there have been times when I may have gone over that line but not often, and not without a little provocation.

I'm not complaining...  other than a person or two, I seriously, hold no grudge towards anyone- on, or off this forum.  And that is the gospel truth... <rock>
