Regarding my UCMJ actions or lack thereof, I find what you say insulting. You know nothing of my career and therefore allusions you make fall under the same broad brush with which you paint other insults. Perhaps you should proceed with respect for others yourself....

Whoaaa. Insults? Allusions?

I guess that's the trouble with mere words.

First of all, I'm walking on your side of the street.

Nope, that's not my take. More like speaking on the same plane and at the same pitch as some others. (Dead communist?

)

I don't tattle.

Look, I was using the UCMJ as a figure of speech only, one ex-serviceman to another. The "OD's version" of it, so to speak. "Article 1(b)" is my wording. The statement is from the forum rules.

I know nothing of your career and make no comments about it. Suffice it to say I respect your service, served myself, and every man in the family served in one branch or the other.

My post mentioning the Scarlet "I" was actually aimed in the opposite direction. I just wonder why some many guys can constantly get away with "questionable personal dialogue" (my term and my impression) and others, well, they seem to get the Scarlet I.
I was surprised to see it got an infraction and a lockdown.

And because the standard is subjective, its application will puzzle most or us at one time or another. I openly wondered if another one might be forthcoming for your "trouble making p^%ck" post. That's all.
At the same time same time all this jzjz piling on goes unabated. Even to the point where a signature line poke fun with every post. About all I can say about that is, well, it's out of character of how I view that member, whom I have met on a couple of occasions. (I only mention it as an an example of subjectivity. I am not looking to take issue with the poster). And Johnjzjz certainly doesn't need me sticking up for him. He's proven his metal.

Personally, I think too many here are children of children of the 60's. The lack of manners here chagrins me.

End.

FAIK, this might be my first strike.
