It's just a way to express my frustration at spammers. I lived much of my life in a time where people in this country could say what they wanted without fear of being punished by the government. I forget this is no longer a free country. I'll apologize to anyone who was offended by my remarks. One more thing to consider; a government bent on taking away peoples' rights will not depend on truth. It will make up an excuse if truth does not provide one.</span><span style="font-family:'Comic Sans MS'"><br>
