This Quote“And those whose loyalty to this country are dubious, and only wishing to become a US citizen for other advantages can suck mine....” When you are directing this at me it is not about open mindedness it is about a very closed mind. You are questioning my intention that you have no clue on. You don’t know me or any thing about me. I think the total conversation we had back in June was not more then 2 minuets. Know one thing I will call you and will pull your card every time you make a statement about me that is false. I have nothing agents you and I don’t assume to know what you stand for or who you are. I ask that you do the same. Maybe you guys should take it to PM's. Either that or get a hotel room together. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

juanesky 0 #45 November 9, 2004 QuotePolitics stays in SC. There is many here that i do not agree with but would love to meet. There has been one time where people used words like towel heads, and etc. Those people can suck my cock in SC and in real life. I have used the term before, so I should assume you are talking here about me? I think those are words that state conflict if lsomeone like me shows in you DZ. Quote The subject we were speaking off was the War in Iraq. Actually it was not a subject we were speaking off but one the first things you brought up. Till this day I think you’re the only person I have ever talked to about the war and how I feel about it. If you remember I ended that conversation rather quickly I am there to Jump and have fun with my friends, and every one who is there I consider a friend no matter what there beliefs are. This is the 2nd time you have assumed you know me. Not according to your first statement, I would have to disagree. I personally have no issue. I was there to jump. As far as assuming, no, but given a possible conflict between the US and Iran, you have let your opinions for all to see. I see no issue on that. You don't need to retract anything either. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- “And those whose loyalty to this country are dubious, and only wishing to become a US citizen for other advantages can suck mine....” -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote When you are directing this at me it is not about open mindedness it is about a very closed mind.

tigra 0 #46 November 9, 2004 QuoteThat's is fair enough. However it that against or agents? ummmmm, do you really want to go there with the spelling errors, etc? I'm guessing if someone took the time to go through all your posts, they might find one or two as well..... (me, I don't have the time and I wouldn't want anyone doing the same thing to me........)

HiettEarp 0 #47 November 10, 2004 When I was skydiving and having a nice weekend at the DZ, I made it a point to leave politics at the house. I would never snub anyone for their views unless they were racist. I have friends from different sides of the political spectrum. These days it has been really nasty from both sides, meaning liberal and conservative, when I went to the DZ, all I wanted to do was have fun and a good weekend of dives, not to get pissed at anyone over a difference of political opinion.

kallend 2,147 #49 November 10, 2004 It would be very hard to do big-ways if everyone insisted that only people with similar views to themselves could participate.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
