BTW - your original post is archived in administrator/moderator files - it can always be reviewed as I just did.
PM sent.
Citizen, your being insulting again.
We've had this conversation before where you IMO demand finite/pin point rules and only those be applied in accordance with your terms. I responded that would take a list not unlike Roberts Rules - maybe I should have said like the Code of Va. complete with decimals - that is not likely to happen.
While we prefer to moderate with a light hand, rule violations will not be ignored. Frequently users are cautioned, reminded, or warned (though not so required) when approaching our limits. How to respond is always a judgement call and you know that you are free to appeal.
This is a forum for Open Carry and I will do what I may to keep it on track and within the parameters established by the site owners.
Don't try to justify your inconsistent, arbitrary, and thoughtless application of the rules by blaming me--your point about precision rules is a strawman. I wrote earlier today, and it still stands: never before on this forum has the word thug been a rule violation when used as I used it.
You're making it up as you go along.
What I find most egregious and in total violation of OCDO rule #16 is that you modified/edited my reply (which was clearly to two separate users) to make it appear as if it was all directed solely to you. I would have expected better from you, sir.
16) NO FALSE ATTRIBUTIONS: Editing quoted posts by another member to make it appear as if they said something other than what they intended will NOT be tolerated!
You were not cited for a rule violation; it was a matter of consistency within the thread. However, now that you point it out, I doubt that you have any knowledge that the rest of us do not possess as to the character of the official making the announcement causing you to call him a thug. Note that you said, "The state **** who made the announcement........"
The real problem Citizen is that you are speaking from stereotype, collective emotionalism, rather than sticking to the facts of the event......you rant off topic.
In the interest of returning this thread back on target to posts relating to the OP - I will delete any additional posts on this thread relating to this subject. As mentioned before, you do know how to appeal the process. IMO, you have made an exaggerated mountain out of a mole hill.........and done so in a most publicly insulting manner, sir.
