We've been out for 19, but I still have family connections.........and friends too. So I enjoy hanging out with those with common heritage. The UPC's not all bad - it just wasn't the right place for us.

Do you think this is a "UPC" forum? If so you are quite uninformed.
Not sure you are aware that you tend to provoke people, then play holier than thou when they respond to your provoking. Advice from the admin team, you need to IGNORE things you don't like rather than trying to start something in every thread you read.
There is a WIDE diverse group of people here and you are not going to agree or like every post or poster. Learn to post your opinion without going after others.
I "provoke" and then play "holier-than-thou"? Since "Admin" had made this accusation publicly, will there be a public posting of examples of these things? It's also been revealed publicly that I reported a post, which according to a PM I have from admin, is ALWAYS anonymous. Who can I talk to about this??

Can you believe all this stuff?? A joke is made about intentionally drowning the Speaker of the House, I express my displeasure with such a joke, and I end up being the bad guy. I've NEVER seen anyone called out publicly on this forum until now and it's a result of me being upset that someone jokes about intentionally drowning a government leader.
Wow....this IS a good reminder, isn't it?
Yes, my friend, it is. I'm really at a loss for words.
Would those who had a hissy fit over the pelosi underwater joke had been so upset had the name used been Bush instead of Pelosi?
I voted for President Bush twice. So....yes, my "hissy fit" would have been the same.

Give me that old-time religion, give me that old-time religion, give that old-time religion, it's good enough.......
On second thought......no thanks.
