GM,

And in my own defense, aside from my own reports I have participated in alot more threads discussing tactics, locations, etc., and have taken several people up to the Farmington and showed them around. And I NEVER talked to them about politics.

I never came to this site for politics. I only came here for fishing. I didn't start the thread. Mitch did. I have something to say. I'm going to say it, to the extent it is permitted. You will NEVER see me try to START a political discussion on this site. EVER. Nor will I EVER make any political comments in my other posts, unless it relates to fishing.

So everyone is just going to have to get over the fact that I may not agree with them.

But I bear no one ill will or hard feelings. I would be happy to fish with anyone who participated in this thread, shake their hand, share a meal or a beverage, and will NOT talk politics.

This thread was a specific context. Anyone who did not want to participate, or didn't like what they read, could either stop reading it, or post an opposing view of their own, and debate it to whatever degree they chose to do so, or not.

If people get angry with each other over politics then they miss the whole point of being an American, where we are free to disagree with whoever we choose. Appropriately.

With my utmost respect to all CTFer's,

Jim
