  20. I'm not shooting anybody down or bitching, oh forget it. Anybody with an ounce of sense knows that this place is monitored by more than one group with an agenda opposite to our own, I just wish people would use some sense, god knows how many people up & down the country get heat put on them because of threads like this. These threads not only educate the likes of you, but also other people. Who's to say that you want the infomation for reasons other than your own? You could be anybody, after all... fu*k the groups who are monitoring this site.. cheers chris
