Stan and James, I don't get animosity between people because of where they live, how they vote or religious associations. (If I don't like the way they do business I don't do business with them.)

My friends on this forum are mostly conservatives because this is mostly a conservative board. My hunting and fishing friends here are almost exclusively conservatives. I respect American friends as much as my Canadian.

Character comes first. Take James, an unreconstructed Tory who batters here with me, and only a travel glitch prevented us from getting together last year.
American friends know the door is always open to them here.

Intolerance, hate of another's opinions, is discouraging. Who wants to live in a community, state or country where everyone thinks the same?
