You know keith, I corresponded with Drew by private email, and gave him my best wishes for his mission trip and safe return, so I do not personally have a dog in the fight I'm about to reference. But, for you to say that Drew's well wishers are making "fawning comments" is just a low, cheap shot. That is a derisive term and you know it. By saying that, you are automatically implying that everyone who wishes him well on his venture is fawning. That is just insulting. Who are you to pass judgement on every one of Drew's well wishers and lump them all in the same bunch?

Well I guess I could make the same "no dog in the fight" claim. I also gave him my best wishes and safe trip and did this even after I and others were blindsided by Drew Hause out of the blue. I have tried to end this useless at this point thread but I guess there are those on here who want to continue it. So be it. WELL: KEEP ONE THING IN MIND KEITH, DAVE K AND I DIDN'T START IT. WE ARE THE VICTIMS OF AN ATTACK BY SOMEONE WHO APPARENTLY DOESN'T LIKE OUR OPINIONS. Well I for one can state that their are individuals whose opinions here I don't agree with either. So what do I do? I use the forum procedure to put them on my ignore list and that generally is the end of it. ANYBODY including Drew Hause could have done the same. Jim

Stan, while I didn't exactly wish Drew well on his mission trip, I did in fact tell him that I enjoyed his Damascus research contributions here, and looked forward to seeing more on his return... but hold the hypocrisy. So I guess you could say I was fawning too. I sincerely and publicly apologize if I offended you. The intent of my comment was to point out that long after Drew bid us farewell, he was still frequently checking in and continuing his personal attack on me. I do note that most of Drew's well wishers chose to ignore the fact that the major intent of his thread was to "Do as I say... not as I do" when it comes to launching a personal attack. Many, like you, undoubtedly just wished to stay out of the fray. Others, such as King Brown, had different motives. It was not my intent to offend anyone who wasn't fawning. Only those who were, and the guy who couldn't tear himself away after saying good-bye until after the election.
On the other hand, I am not about to apologize to Franc, who apparently has both a defective memory, and the stupidity to expect me to offer best wishes to someone who just initiated a thread to criticize me by doing exactly what he preaches against in every post via his tag line. Franc otte absolutely has confronted me in this forum in the past. And no, it wasn't to discuss shotguns. That is the major reason I saw the "best wishes" he sent to Jim and I for "drastically different" reasons as being derisive and sarcastic to boot.
As Jim notes, it is regrettable that any of this exchange had to occur, but we were merely counter-punching after being criticized and attacked for behavior that is mysteriously tolerated in others of a Liberal Left bent. Go figure. If pointing out obvious hypocrisy makes me a prick, then so be it.
I don't really mind seeing this thread being kept alive by further comments for the same reasons that Drew made his ungracious exit without ever acknowledging the selective nature of his personal attack or explaining his insane accusation that I had proof texted Scripture or mocked God. Keeping it at the top allows more people who visit this site to see how the Fake Ass Gentlemens Club (F.A.G.s) here operates.
A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

The Fringe makes an equivocal apology and, unable to help itself, unapologetically puts its foot back into it again. Talk about faking! Vowing to keep its deathless prose at the top, it poisons the well for everyone. Narcissism.

Attempts at, or demonizing a virtuous person always appears ludicrous, at least to me.
Socialism is almost the worst.

I'm preparing for another trip to Guatemala, and right now Guatemala City, along with San Salvador, Tegucigalpa and San Pedro Sula, Honduras are the most dangerous cities in the world; worst than Mogadishu.
Sadly your time and efforts would be better spent in our inner cities.

Drew - best wishes and good luck. I always enjoy your contributions here. Hurry back. Also, a big "thank you" for raising the hackles and blood pressure of the handful of overly opinionated thugs that are quickly ruining this site. Anything we can do to infuriate those guys is OK with me.

Keep your head down and watch your six, Drew. Bad times right now all over the world.
At least it's not Chicago.

Keith, I remember one post to you, I believe I said (basically)that I kinda admired your forocity about your beliefs, but that it really got in the way of good shotgun talk.Like as soon as someone on your list even posted a gun comment, I would think "here we go" , n there you were , full of piss n vinegar. Im 60 years old, only have two old, but lovely shotguns,& enjoy this place very much....I can't vote as I'm not a Citizen, though they kindly let me pay taxes. So I'm not politically inclined...but would vote for Trump if I could This is the truth..I do wish you well cheers franc
