Well ain't that just a hoot?
So much for free speech
It's ok, it proved something I needed to prove to myself.
BTW- Rich, at the risk of once again upsetting you,
read the danged post again!
No one told you to "shut up!", on "your site" or anywhere else
What I
was trying to get across as politely as I could, were concerns being voiced to me by other members regarding your repeated disparaging commentary, and how it was likely to not only offend some of us that are/were in the field, but also many of those who have been long time friends and supporters of the site.
Guess it fell on deaf ears.
You probably couldn't see it, but the comments in one form or another, were showing up in almost every thread. It was becoming so much sour grapes.
Let's run off what's left of the house
But now that I can speak freely (I think?), I'll say that personally, your continued disparaging comments, and apparent disdain toward anything law enforcement,
was exceedingly insulting to ME!!
I'm sure I'm not alone.

That is not a "liberal" nor a "conservative" view at all. It is merely ME saying what I am willing to continue to tolerate HERE. Someone telling me "enough" HERE is not only being rude, but definitely way overstepping their authority in this domain.

Tolerate?
What are we, 4?
1st- My comments were not made under any "authority." They were made as a member and a friend, in an effort to keep you from alienating members.
And yes, despite what you think, I would have said the same thing to your face.
Enough was enough.
And that's MY feeling on the matter.
Second- I'm sorry to say, you did exactly what I expected

Yeah, that was pretty much my point
