overbearing moderators

the extremists of the world, that top 1% of many groups that are willing to kill or die for their ideals. This is not about a particular religion, political party, skin color or even geographic location, its about accepting the fact that humans are pretty screwed up and there will always be the exteme edge of really screwed up people that want to force others to think like them or perish. More people have died "in the name of blah blah blah" than have been killed in all the battles through the ages.
NO OFFENSE was meant, if your a faithful follower of blah blah blah I humbly beg your forgiveness

I'm afraid of not achieving the things I want to in life.
you and me both, though i try my best to just keep going after that goal.

heck, in a year i need to find out a way to make money to move to Australia, then need to find a way to become a automotive engineer before i die.

both are EXTREAMLY difficult things to do in my age and class. but you know what? someone is looking after me, and it will be ok.

Why is this one hard to do at your age, you're 21? If you can't afford school find a school that pays for itself, by working for them, that's what I did.

Democrats


Other than that nothing I can really think of.

(Side note I'm not a republican either, just democrats scare me.)
Me too, Not just democrats or republicans but Goverment in general. We the people are giving up all of our liberties for so called security. That to me is scary. Big government scares the hell out of me.
As Benjamin Franklin said, "Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety".

Carnivorous sea life....Bull sharks lurk in the waters here. Those evil things didn't get the word on the bite-to-see-what-this-thing-is plan. They bite to feed.

When stopped by a policeman a man confessed he had a .45 automatic in the glove box, a 357 magnum under the seat, a 38 Special in an ankle holster a 12 gauge Remington 1100 in the trunk and a Mini-14. The policeman asked him what he was affraid of. NOT A DAMN THING, HE REPLIED.

Seriously, we should all be very scared of our totally out of control government, regardless of your political affiliation.

Well apparently some here didn't get the hint when Foxy removed posts and then warned the thread, and then when Minnflyer removed posts and then warned the thread. So let me say it a little clearer here. RCU is not the place for politics or political commentary. It's stated clearly in our rules it will be enforced. For those that think that they are above the rules and keep trying to post politics here, let me tell you a little secret. We're not going to lock down this thread simply because a few people can't understand and follow our rules. If they continue to try and post I will deal with them on an individual basis. Let this stand as a group warning to all those they keep trying to post about politics, or other topics not allowed in the RCU Community Rules, if they continue to post they will face administrative actions.

I'm sorry that I had to make such a post here in the open forum, but unfortunately some people here just can't follow instructions.

Ken

Large insects, I saw a 2-inch long hornet yesterday.

Any animal bigger than a cat.

Spiders.

Going upside-down.

Cars (full size). On October 14 2010, I broke my leg because of one. Sitting on the couch for 2-months is boring...

Fire, when I wasn't even born, my mother almost died because of one.

Any machine that destroys things or is larger than a scooter.
