so, one of the ways to reduce or even eliminate personal attacks here, would be the threat of being exposed...all members would be registered here with their full personal id... and that would be with the understanding that at the request of another member or his legal representative, that the moderator would release said personal id info, at his discretion, and at the full peril of the perp...

hopefully, just the mere possibility of exposure would act as a deterrent.. which would then result in a decrease in off topic posts and an increase in forum peace and harmony...


Yeah, I don't know Ed. Easy to figure out who I am. I don't really hide. You threatened me with legal action a few years ago in a PM, and then got enraged when I exposed that fact to the board by quoting your PM.

While I disagree with a lot of your politics and your gunsmithing views, it's that kind of bullshit resorting to threats that confirmed my view of you. I also note neither myself nor my solicitor has ever been contacted by your legal representative. All hat, no horse.

The world cries out for such: he is needed & needed badly- the man who can carry a message to Garcia
