Sandninjer, if you post any more personal attacks you will face a ban from MAP. Tone down the aggressive, confrontational nature of you posts, please. Thank you.
No offense. With all those countless charity events, celebrities, responsibilities, father from Wall Street (whatever that means), etc., WHY are you here getting upset with people you never met in person?
On a forum such as this, there isn't a "freedom of speech", it is a privelege to be here in polite discussion.
Please understand, this post is not to belittle, but I'm trying to understand how you can become so frustrated with mere words on a forum.
While I agree with you that the "cry cry whine whine" response was rather pathetic, I do find it quite funny that people bring this freedom of speech thing up to defend themselves and forget it swings both ways.
Is America the greatest country in the world. that's like trying to say which is the greatest football team, soccer team, car, beach etc in the world. It's all in the eyes of the beholder as it should be. however having a belief in ones greatness whether individual or communal will usually get you farther than an attitude of being inadequate. Of course one must be wise and not bite off more than one can chew!
