    You shouldnt be worried.....maybe your significant other????;D

    Im jkkkk

    thats pretty cool.


    And i am pro guns, i like them....when i someday work for the DEA i will obviously have to carry one. Guns in the hands of the right people can potentially create a safer society where there are high violent crime rates. I will be taking guns away from people who shouldnt even be around them....in a more specific case, drug lords or anyone else associated

    That's a bit out of left field. I didn't see his post directed at you or having a problem with you at all, he was expressing his opinion of the topic. You seem to have been very vocal on the topic, and while your humor on said topic has been a bit dry, I can still see a bit of humor. I didn't see jwins post as a problem with you at all. On several threads now I have seen you over expressing yourself and later in the thread apologizing or saying you hope you didn't overstep your bounds or the like. Not trying to be rude at all, I rather like people who express themselves, just saying - no need to get defensive. Start a debate on a hot topic such as this, and all I can say is - you need to be able to walk in the fire.

    Sorry for the confusion I was not referring to you. You seem to have a good take on the issue and above all, respect for other peoples opinions and choices. I was aiming that at the ones who whine about anyone who owns a gun and how dangerous they are to society. Granted there are alot of people out there who have no business owning a gun, but quite a few of us are very responsible gun owners. Alot of people whould change there opinion if one of us who carries a weapon steps in and saves their life one day.

    Um...you obviously don't know me very well. Because none of my threads have been directed towards you :confused:

    You expressed your views, and you said you had no problem with people who do own guns. So I have no problem with your views. My posts that are this in depth are normally directed towards anyone who reads them. In this case, there were a few posts in this thread that fueled my post,and none of those posts were yours. So my post was not directed towards you at all...

    Here, I even pulled my post from the twilight thread:
    Now, if anything in that post seems serious, I'll eat my cell phone (the picture doesn't count, because that's serious :lol:) I'm friends with Tracy and Kacy (holy crap...their names rhyme...whoa how did I miss that) on Facebook, and both of them are between 20 and 25. And I promise you they knew I was joking :)

    I really really don't want you to take this the wrong way...but you keep telling people to loosen up and stop taking things so seriously. You might want to read that with yourself in mind ;) I don't mean to offend with that, please don't get me wrong. But you seem to be reading my posts with the wrong view in mind. :)

    Sarah i doubt the negative comment were directed to you. In all likelyhood they were directed to me. which is why i no longer chose to comment on this. we all have our views

    I never named names and I never will. We're all here because we like aquariums (mainly saltwater, but some freshies too). So I'm not going to let a bunny-trail thread on gun ownership hurt the relationships we have as aquarium enthusiasts. I was just chiming in my views of it, even though I'm rather passionate about them :)

    No harm done :)

    Sarah, you always take things so seriously. Relax little one.

    It is all in good fun.

    This is one of those topics that there is pretty much no middle ground, you are either all for it, or against it.

    Almost as much fun as abortion...:-X
