John,A lot of us served and nearly lost our lives somewhere at sometime. Be sure to take your medicine before bedtime, it's not nice to threaten Old John or anyone. Heck, he may have served in the military too and you wouldn't want to hurt a fellow veteran would you?
I would never hurt anyone and I of course realize that most of the members on here have served our country in one way or another at some time in their lives. Did you read the response that he shot back at my first post in this thread? If not, maybe you could take a few seconds and get an idea of what went down here before making me out to be the bad guy here.
I don't think he deserves an apology from me, I wasn't targeting him in my initial response and he certainly decided to deride my comment to which I promptly replied and quoted his message to me. I don't feel like I need to explain anything to you, I appreciate you taking up for another member on here but this isn't the first time this member has decided to lash out not only me but others that regularly post on this website.
For your information I also hold a degree in Gerontology from Southern Nazarene University and have been a Home Health and Hospice Volunteer for almost 18 years thanks to my lovely wife insisting I do something to give back to fellow Veterans with my time to help them, whoever they are. With that being disclosed I will include that Senior Citizens will never get a free pass to be abusive from this guy, I respect and admire all until it is not reciprocated just because a person has aged. Not going to happen and I refuse to age like those have served before me, I talk to everyone in the same smiling manner and will continue to do so, you Sir may do as you please and cow-tow to whomever you want to, not my business and I would never suggest you apologize to someone for raising your ire.
The joke about my wheel chair only having one wheel was simply that, just like the huckleberry comment. Out of curiosity, did you serve in the military and ever pick on a fellow service member?
Let me know if there is anything else I need to add to this response.
