I tend to say exactly what I mea...I don't disagree. I tend to say exactly what I mean, and I end up being less tactful than is prudent. <BR/><BR/>I recall, for example, a mass email from the ARCENT-QA EO Rep about an ethnic history month celebrated by the Army. I hit 'reply all' and explained that it was against Army EO discrimination policy to celebrate a group of people based on race, sex, creed, religion, etc. to the exclusion of others, and would they please stop sending me these racist emails. When I hit 'Send', it was like launching a virtual nuke.<BR/><BR/>Over the next few weeks that email was forwarded all the way up to the Pentagon, so I heard. During those weeks, I received death threats, in addition to several offers to whip my ass. I was a hero to the people who felt the same as I did, but dare not speak up. I was a villain to those who thrive on racism to achieve their ends. Oddly enough, the two camps were not drawn on racial lines. People of the celebrated race confided that they hated the celebration because its very existance was proof that equality was still just a dream. People of my own race publicly and loudly denounced me for fear of being called 'racist' themselves, if they did not. It was like a freak social experiment that exposed the hidden souls of everyone it touched.<BR/><BR/>Somewhere up the chain, someone realized that I had done nothing wrong, and the upper echelon racists calling for my head got their leashes yanked. I have always wondered just how high it went and what conversations took place. Anyway, my CDR took me aside and told me that someone very high was on my side, and while he personally agreed with my sentiment, he would appreciate it if I would not reply to the EO mailings anymore. He laughed and said, "SSG, I don't think my ass can take another one of your emails."<BR/><BR/>The racist CSM demanded that I write an open letter of apology, that my career depended on it. I, respectfully, refused on the grounds that I would rather be Court Martialed than compromise my integrity by writing a bullshit apology for some imaginary offense. When I called his bluff, he backed down. I did agreed not to pursue harrassment charges, in consideration of the LTC. He was a decent man, and I didn't want to cause him any more grief than he had already suffered on my account. Watching the racists expose themselves, then stand there impotent was justice, in my eyes. Good times.<BR/><BR/>So if you think it best to withhold any of my posts, I will understand. :)CorbinKalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14190860109045068350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-41928141077952778232008-12-09T21:08:00.000-06:002008-12-09T21:08:00.000-06:00Note to CorbinKale.I didn't publish your comment, ...Note to CorbinKale.<BR/><BR/>I didn't publish your comment, not because I necessarily disagree with it, but because I think you personalized it too much. Just trying to keep you out of trouble. When you read the entire volume of Absolved, I think you'll understand that some things are best left hanging. I appreciate your sentiment though.<BR/><BR/>If you still disagree with my decision, please email me at GeorgeMason1776@aol.com.

These two are unique, and they continue to uphold their non-partisan status.

Won't be a 300 yard war either, prints pretty good at 600 and does a reasonable job at 1000 with iron sights, for a relic of a different age sold to me by the Federal Government when we were a Nation of Rifleman before they milled surplus M-14s into scrap and stopped selling good ammo.<BR/><BR/>If they put their toe in these waters, their toes will be shot off, from long range, one at a time.<BR/><BR/>Buddy of mine can keep his .45-70 Sharps on 36" of paper at 1000 using aperture sights with a spotter. Do that with an M-4 and get back to me...<BR/><BR/>I'm with Chris.tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14230665595988628546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-46470363350476506562008-12-09T15:54:00.000-06:002008-12-09T15:54:00.000-06:00The hell with EVERY last one of them.This "system"...The hell with EVERY last one of them.<BR/><BR/>This "system" is almost completely broken.
