I wanted to send this to the Mod's, but decided I wanted to share this, I will be taking a break from this forum. I am sorry if I offended any one w/ my signature, but it is who I am. I never intended to push my religion on anyone, and no I am not a "rapper". I never thought at 44 years old I would have to justify myself, can you live w/ yourself? See ya later, JP

I don'e see why you would have offended anyone. Doesn't make sense. You just stated what you believe. Hate to see you go JP.

Your choice...but your signature hasn't bothered me at all.

I would ask you to rethink. I enjoy reading your posts. I like loud music too. God seams ok with it so far.
Hang in there. I/We are here!
I enjoy your company.
Cheezywan

I don't mind when someone wishes God's mercy on me. I'll take all the mercy I can get.

The first time I read your signature, I just thought it was a clever little quip--a bit amusing.

JP, Stick around if you can. Many of us don't think ill of you.

There is nothing wrong with your signature, pm sent

Of much greater concern is that you're a baseball fan, and the Mets even. Yikes!

What started all this?????????????? :confused:

JP,

I'm new here, but I like your posts. Hang tough.

Also, after only a few dozen posts, I've had the mods on me two or three times. I'm a slow learner.

I hate to see a guy with as many guns as you pissed off. LOL

Hey JP I know you probly don't know me because i'm the new guy here and all I can go by is your post count and I see you have contibuted lots to this site.

Also, your sig doesn't bother me either. In fact God loves loud music because if we don't play our music loud then how can he hear it from way up in heaven? :D

I don't see what the big deal is either. :confused:

Hang in here jp, Your ideas and opinions count!

I understand if you need a break. But anybody who has raised a ruckus over your signature obviously already has a burr under their saddle. Don't let it get to you - it's not with you they are upset.

PM coming your way

Don't change your signature, it is you. Please reconsidder your decision. I think most here respect your views, and would miss them as well.

jp,
hang in there. Relax. Breathe. Don't worry about your signature. It's yours because you liked it enough to put it there, right? I'm not much of a rap music fan. I tend more toward everything but country and "corporate radio" music. LOUD is GOOD! :D As for your religion, The Constitution of the United States allows you that like it protects me from the government from ramming it down my throat. I personally would like you to stick around because you seem to enjoy yourself here and I do get something from your posts, even though our senses of humor don't quite mesh seamlessly.

Stick it out, man. We all won't agree on everything, but at least we need to try to get along.


Does anyone else here hate hearing that plaintive, "Can't we all just get along" like I do? I'd rather hear," We will all get along and it won't be easy"!

Hang in JP. Even if this does come from the what's beginnning to feel like the lunatic left here. ;)

MMichaelAK and I have accord on this one.

As long as the tag lines aren't out of line with us Mod's prudish way of thinking, they're OK. Yours is more than acceptable.

We won't tolerate members squabling over these issues. Remember our policies - be courteous and respectful of each other in your replies. Disagreement can be stated, but in a manner you would like someone to disagree with you.

I'm not offended. I'm not even sure I can be offended. Maybe I'm dead, but I am inspired to add a signature.

Just because you posted an un-funny fictitious letter in the humor forum is no reason to go.

Get over it. the one about the guys "privates" was much better.

This is without a doubt the kindest, wisest, most accepting, and most thougthful forum I've ever seen.

It must be all the guns. I'm going to go get me somemore.

I read once that "kindness comes from strength". If I can figure out how to do it I'm going to put that as my signature.

but I am inspired to add a signature.

That should be enough to strike fear into all of our hearts!
Cheezywan ;)

My wife said that I can't be offended either. Maybe I'm just hardheaded.
I went with my signature because I always felt like we were all just sitting around that same old campfire as our hunting lease. We talk things to death out there but we can also throw in sex, politics and religion.
Nothing ever gets resolved, and no one ever agrees with your opinion except for one thing.
All us 55 years old gasbags agreed that the best looking woman in the world was Elizabeth Taylor when she was 25 years old.
Outside of that, we argue all night or until we run out of wood.
Good Luck to all-

Well, to me it looks like 20+ votes for jpattersonnh and only one negative comment that didn't even happen in this thread and was probably aimed more at me and you were caught in the crossfire.

One more for jpattersonnh.

Stick around dude!!!

We may find a really good topic yet. Certainly like having you round and read your posts too.

SHOOT WELL.
LOAD BETTER.

Yeah jp,

My skin is 3 feet thick(from dealing with inmates on a daily basis) so ya can't offend me even if ya tried! Stick around and enjoy slinging the lead and the bull with us. :cool:

Doc Holidude

Sorry I had to Edit this, I remember when the Sugar Hill Gang broke into music w/ the 1st rap album, I have never been a fan! I'm a NY'er by birth, grew up there, seen most of it. So what ever happened to Sid Vicious? :rolleyes:

Thanks all! James Patterson

You may speak as you wish to me J.P. I will honor what you say. I take your view with much regard. Sometimes I just read posts without reply. It is because of my lack of experiance on the subject. That is why I like to read more than post.

I see us as equal's,
The same as all I converse with. JP I love life, and as G........

Bust it up!

Lets Shoot!!! JP

Just watch where you got that thing pointing. :D

New builds? Well I am waiting for my .350 front sight blade to come in for my 1917 CG96 6.5x55 Swede. I have also received my limbsaver recoil butt pad, for my 7mm Rem Mag. I gotta try! If it does not work, well I have 3 boys. JP

I've got my .223 bedded and waiting for my Leupold base to come in. Plan the try to work up a load for it next weekend. Rain or shine. We have a building to shoot out of. 16' long bench with three presses, powder measurer and two scales. I like it there. I just load three, shoot, clean, until I find the perfect load. No wind to shoot in either. Not enough to bother me anyway. Nice shooting in a holler with no wind and out of a building the keeps out the rain.
