I found a wallet one time on the ground where i used to work.
It happened to belong to a guy i knew who he was.
so i called him and told him to come and get it.
That's when he started screaming that i had stolen the wallet from his glovebox?
And he was going to beat me to death.
So after dropping the wallet in an a sewer manhole there was just enough room it wasn't seated all the way.
I waited until he arrived.
thing's change in real life.
He wouldn't even get out of his car or roll his window down.
I invited him too be he just wouldn't do it.
I told him where his wallet was and left.
My point is internet threat's don't mean anything.

Yes, very true and understood and not worried about at all. Here's where the difference lies. Your experience was between two people, and that was the end of it, as far as anyone else is to know. This however is bit different being in a public format where anyone can read it, from now until ever more. The direct threat isn't the one to worry about, it's the one you never see coming, might be from someone who has never posted not a single thing. We just can't know what's in the hearts and minds of everyone that comes along and reads what we write at a later date. It would also not be the first time the internet has turned someone into action. This is the main point that I am trying to get across here. Right now the only threat I have to worry about is the threat of rain today.

Need to make a rant here guys just one more time. So bear with me for just a little bit.

The other day I called out Joe @Red97 for his liking a comment about shanking a member here. The purpose of my jumping on him was to get a dialog started and it would seem that I have failed in that endeavor. I used some harsh wordage to get this process started and have yet to hear back from Joe. So...I really don't believe that he or anyone else for that matter really wanted that as a course of action for someone to take. I was hoping he would come back and say as much, but he hasn't yet. So now I will just have to make a plea and have to call it good. I'm really not mad at Joe perse, he just happened to be the first one to come around I could try to make an example of and bring the seriousness of this issue to light. The fact of this and other threats of "real world violence" to members here should not be tolerated for the simple fact that we all meet in gtg's and who knows who reads this ridiculous stuff may show up to one one day and act out on to what was said. I would also make a plea to any and all moderators to see the serious side of this and try to nip it in the bud so to say. While we do have the right to free speech, we don't however have the right to use it against another right to life. It's a direct threat to ones civil liberty's and the courts have ruled on this many times. Also if this were to happen, it would put an end to the gtg's that lots of folks enjoy. Lots of ramifications here, besides how would anyone feel if some unhinged individual were to do such a thing? Terrible thought to say the least. So to my line of thinking, was too serious an issue to just hope would just go away. That said however now that I've made it an issue, maybe the time has come for just that. Personally I'm over it, and hope this is the end of the whole ordeal. As for Joe, he's welcome to come around as far as I'm concerned and am not going to say another thing about it. Sorry I jumped on your case Joe, I just hope you can see why I felt compelled to do so. Steve.

Obviously I am doing a poor job of explaining my thoughts here. Also let some time laps so there is that as well. Trying to shed some light on an important subject that no one really cares about. I'm kinda wanna be done with it, so don't worry yourself too much about it.

I understand what you are saying and I agree with you for sure. I just wasn't sure of the subject but that isn't as important as the message you are trying to get across

With this crew you are likely concerned about nothing. When we GTG there are various people who I trust with my life in attendance that are always packing a firearm. I bet my eye teeth that if anyone attempted to shank someone at a GTG, they would be dispatched with extreme prejudice.

And......I'm never without a weapon....just not a firearm. I don't carry a gun because I don't feel the need, but I can and will defend myself quite well.
