I just want to make a simple point here. This site has different forums for different subjects. I'm posting this in the 'Cosmos' forum because this deals with MORALS and ETHICS. The "STFU...this is a security site" comments are getting old fast. Yes, this site is devoted to security and thats what drew me here initially, but there are areas here that are not strictly 'security discussion' areas. JP put them here for a specific reason....for us to discuss a broader variety of subject matter, to expand our horizons and add depth to our scope of knowledge and understanding. Try as I might, I can find no fault in that feature, and I find it to be an enhancement to the overall quality of AntiOnline. To go through this world and this life with a 'singular' focus is to invite failure and disaster to follow you everywhere you go.

If I post a moral, ethical or political thread in a security forum, then by all means, neg the crap out of me...I deserve it for making a boneheaded mistake like that. But if I'm out of the security forums, in chit-chat, the cosmos, or site suggestions, keep your narrow-minded little 'territorial' whinings out of your comments. If this actually is a 'pure security' site, then come out in the open and voice your opinion...challenge my views in a public forum. If you are correct, then the membership fill support your view and people like myself will gradually fade away from your insulated little world, never again to give voice to ideas or philosophies that threaten you or your status in the community. Change will never come, all will remain as it has been, and you will be free to choke on the staleness of the environment you fought so hard to preserve.

In closing, I admit to being assertive, outspoken, agressive and even abrasive at times. But I'm one of those types who doesn't want to live in a vanilla world wearing vanilla clothes, thinking vanilla thoughts and spouting vanilla rhetoric to appeal to all the other vanilla people. I can't imagine why someone would want to limit themselves like that, but apparently there are those who do. Myself, I prefer to grab a double dip of Rocky Road, keep pushing the envelope, and look back with no regrets.

Peace out, folks!
