I'm a 6'4" former Marine MP, if it really matters that much to you. I've been in enough fights, in and out of law enforcement, to know that I don't like to fight, but I will if I need to. I don't start stuff, and will avoid a fight if I can, with a few exceptions.
I'm actually a pretty nice guy if you bothered to get to know me. You've just read me wrong from a few posts from an online forum that you yourself has told others (including myself) to not take too seriously, thinking that just because I speak my mind I'm automatically an ass****. Of course, if frankly speaking ones mind and thinking one's always right makes one an ass****, then you (bigcountry) are as much of an ass**** as you think I am. You like to attack others when their opinion differs from your own, and then tell them to relax and not take things so seriously. Well, that door swings both ways. I'm not innocent of saying things to people that are meant to rile them up, but I think that you ought to pull the proverbial plank out of your eye before you worry about the splinter in mine.
However, I'd bet that if we met each other without being aware of our online identities, we'd probably get along ok. Maybe not fast friends, but at least pleasant and civil.
I'ts your attitude Mike
Now that's the pot calling the kettle black. This coming from the same person who says that he doesn't wish harm on anyone (that's original) and than proceeds to wish harm on someone he doesn't know because I pointed out the fact that the M710 is the piece of plastic junk that it is and you took it personally. If there is two types of people I dislike the most, it's hypocrites and liars. Just based on your own statements, it's hard not to place you into the former category. However, unlike your previous libel (like being rich is a bad thing just because others aren't is such a terrible thing anyway), I will not assume anything or make things up to put you down, I will stick to calling it like I see it and like it is.
I'm just a disabled vet who recently sufferd a stroke due to past trauma. I'm allowed to make a mistake....YOU.
Everyone is allowed to make mistakes, and I'd be a liar (see above paragraph) if I said I never have. And I think that from your experience you've probably learned from your mistake just like I try to do. That's called wisdom. However, the above quoted statement is nothing more than a cop-out. I'm a "disabled" veteran too, but I won't blame my screw ups on my status as such.
