My Apologies to the Forum and the Marine Corp.
« on: November 02, 2014, 02:54:26 PM »
So sorry about the stupid comments I recently made on Thursday. I took a bad day and made it worse by adding alcohol (no excuse) and insulting many in this forum. 

It was undeserved and I humble myself before you all. I hold no animosity towards the members of this forum, and especially towards those who serve, or have in the past.

It will not happen again.
Personally, I do not understand how a bunch of people demanding a bigger govt can call themselves anarchist.
I meet lots of folks like this, claim to be anarchist but really they're just liberals with pierced genitals. - gunsmith

I already have canned butter, buying more. Canned blueberries, some pancake making dry goods and the end of the world is gonna be delicious.  -French G

No sweat, Sgt. Bob.  We all have days that get the best of us at times.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

I don't see what the problem was. Marines would have to know how to read, in order to take offense.

I'd heard that at least one Marine per barracks had to know how to read - he was the one who read the Archie and Jughead comics to the rest of the squad....

:D   >:D


I love APS - only 4 posts to go from apologizing for insulting Marines to insulting Marines....

It takes a big man and an humble one to stand up and acknowledge when he is wrong and to apologize for it.

Thank you for that, but, it takes an even bigger man to not do the wrong in the first place.

If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Okay, I'm not sure I can forgive fistful.  I know how to read.  I got an 'B' in reading in the 2nd grade.

Ahhh, 4th Grade.  The best three years of my life....

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Proof that there is at least one intelligent Marine out there making good life choices.

It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

So is this the time to mention that Jamis's beloved Marine Corps is spelled with an s at the end?
