Recently, a certain member of this forum lifted a post I had made in another thread out of context. The post in question was originally intended (and in the original context was clearly understood) as a joke. However when lifted out of context it could and did offend some I am sure. Rest assured, I am not nor have I ever been a member of the klan. I am not nor have I ever been an anti-semite. I am not nor have I ever been racist (towards blacks or anyone else for that matter). Even though I do own a 22 (named Ginger), I don't stand on my front porch waitin' to shoot any yankee that dares walk by, despite how people desire to depict me.
If I had been alive back then, I would have been an abolitionist (just as I support similar groups working in the Sudan and other regions where the egregious offense of slavery continues). And in fact until a few months ago was a died in the wool member of the Party of Lincoln. I say this not to bring politics up, but simply to proove how utterly ridiculous this slander against me was.
I apologize if anyone was offended by the cr*p posted by ByzantinePrince.
