Rk, Give Yank and I a break please...I think you have over-rated your offensiveness
I remember a time (seems like a LONG time ago), that a new member named Roadkill felt like a Lugerforum outcast because he thought too much about things that were posted... and nothing could be further from the truth... you have obviously been hangin' out on too many survivalist boards!
...and I also think you should remove your tongue from your cheek or it will grow like that! (or at least that is what my dearly-departed mother would have said!)
Your reflections on life USUALLY start with something to do with Lugers or you wouldn't post them here...
keep up the good work! ...and keep them students educated on firearms!
best regards,
JS
