Learned long time ago, don't discuss politics and religion. No wonder wars are fought over those topics. Enough blame to point fingers in all directions on this politics stuff. So true. Now if only I could stop forming strong opinions myself, life would be so much easier. Never realized you were a skipper. Sailing seems like a relaxing way to spend a vacation. jpg

Amen! I realize it's no use discussing politics with those folks when they have no respect for facts, reality, honesty, etc....... their only interest is to relentlessly push their one sided, biased & factually flawed POV & relentlessly post similar BS from extremist media outlets. To what end though? Do they honestly think it makes their POV credible to objective observers? Does the slanderous, manipulative & biased BS make the other side less credible to objective observers? Someone explain it to me please, cuz I just don't get it. I couldn't look in a mirror if I had to resort to that level for any reason. No way could I justify it & somehow deceive myself into thinking what I was doing was the right or proper thing. However, I had to take some folks off from ignore to respond to that sorry attack on jj on another thread. It didn't faze them one iota other than to give them a new target for their venom. No worries. I'd rather have folks like that throwing darts at me than considering me one of their own. OOF'ster....... stuck in the middle....... regardless of flawed perceptions :-\
