This will be my last post on this subject, it is taking up too much of my time, for a simple word usage.

There are some on this forum that have thin skin. I posted that “there are there are limp wristed people on this forum” Could that be true? I did not name anyone by name.

If I was reading that, my thought is, I am not limp wristed and he must be speaking about someone else. Another thought could be this forum has NO LIMP WRISTED members which cannot possibly be true, because there is a very wide segment of the population that has an interest in guns and SD. “Limp wristed” is a Point of View, the same as Snowflakes, Right Winger, Wingnut, Zealot, and so forth. But since this was posted and responded to… The closest rule that I approached is rule #2, I didn’t attack anyone. I used a term that could apply to a lot, ‘If the shoe fits’…

TAM if you want to label me "Boorish" that is your prerogative, and what I refer to as a point of view. Remember the saying ‘Sticks and stones’… But now if I didn’t have broad shoulders, you named by name and called me boorish, which is the same thing you are accusing me of. Except I never placed that a name on any member specifically. I could call you a hypocrite. It appears to me you violated rule #2 specifically.

I might also point out the term ‘improper signs’ was never brought up in this thread. I have heard some mention that a sign that had letters only 7/8” or a word was mis-spelled constituted an improper sign. My view is that expresses a ‘desire’ and is good enough for me not to walk past. It has also been represented there is no legal precedent and I do not want to be the test case.

I am sorry if what I said offended you, because it was not a 'personnel attack' on anyone. My comment was simply a 'shot across the bow' to try and tell me how I should keep my mouth shut, about trying to educate business owners on what signs mean. I am sure that would have been the next post how it is not a good idea...

PC is what has brought this country down. If DT spoke like some on this forum we would all be inaugurating Madam President on the 20th, rather than celebrating his victory. Keep in mind what I used is not really a harsh words unless...

Near my work are a number of gas stations all of which are posted 06/07. I cannot carry at work but I have stopped in the let them know I do not spend money with them and leave a card with "NO guns NO money"

There is one station that is posted 07 only so I decided to go in and at least thank him for leaving the 06 down. I asked for the manager, and began the conversation pointing to the 07 sign and I got the puppy dog look like what are you talking about. We went out and I pointed to the 07 sign and asked if he knew what that meant. I got the same look!

I have found most managers don't have a clue about what is posted in their windows. One manager ran after me and said the sign was coming down next week, and it did. I try not to go into much detail unless I see the light bulb going off, which is not very often. I have also thanked some for not posting and leave the card but scratching off the NO money deal because on the back side it describes what we have to go through to qualify for a LTC.

I know there are there are limp wristed people on this forum that will say not to bring up the subject but I do not agree with them.
