If you notice ... Highnlite and nullgeo sing the same tune and constantly complement each others posts. They are constantly on this forum ... day or night. They are probably one and the same. Also notice that they will carry a conversation with you, regardless if its argumentative or not, but they will continue to pry information from you. They have tried it with me and continue to this day. They want to know where you live, where you work, what you do, what kind of wealth you have ... these are the tell tale signs of someone you want to be very cautious of. Be very careful in the information you divulge to them or anyone on a forum for that matter.
I am always careful .. But I sleep well at night and fear nothing

=P .. Back to ignore mode for those clowns. Thanks Don9.

Now Donnie, you get sillier with every post, methinks ... I have never asked you a single question such as you declare ... go find me a post where I have. You fabricate such nonsense just like you fabricate your chicken-little prognostications about the demise of the state and nation at the hands of the commies. And ytg hasn't worked any harder than millions of other young people ... nor has he "gotten to" any place more remarkable than a Army trained diesel mechanic with a job -- hot dogs and Ramen noodles not withstanding.

As for ytg's picture of a gun: -- really? OMG ... as if that makes someone tough ... as if a hundred million Americans are strangers to them ... yeeHaw! The Wild and Wooly West! Gunslingers! Robbers! Lions! Tigers! Bears! Put people on "Ignore" then post taunts at at the 'ignored' -- then post pictures of guns ... mamma mia!

Good grief.

Now then, what about those businesses "fleeing the state"?
Are not.

(P.S. forgot to point out: You've been on this forum two years less than me and yet you have more posts ... and you say I am "on day and night" ... how does that work out to be a criticism, Don? I am on a lot lately ... I'm on a streak ... kicking back on the boat in the tropics ... playing with the new 'hot spot smartypants phone' I got ... hate these newfangled tech thingies ... but gotta play a bit. And voila! Along comes Don9 with another silly proclamation ... followed by ytg taunting behind his "Ignore" sign ... are you kidding? Ducks in a barrel, hoss. )

Just passing through (quickly) and just curious but if you fear nothing, why do you have a gun?
Wouldn't it be more accurate to say that because you are fearful, you need a gun?

What, you don't own a gun?

More Guns, Less Crime Again (http://www.nraila.org/Issues/FactSheets/Read.aspx?id=206&issue=007 - broken link)

Violent crime decreased six percent between 2009 and 2010, including a four percent decrease in murder and a ten percent decrease in robbery. Since 1991, when violent crime peaked, it has decreased 47 percent to a 36-year low. Murder has fallen 51 percent to a 46-year low. At the same time, the number of guns that Americans own has risen by about 90 million. Predictions by gun control supporters, that increasing the number of guns, particularly handguns and so-called "assault weapons," would cause crime to increase, have been proven profoundly lacking in clairvoyance.

I do hope you check your engineering specifications for validity better than you throw around negative California opinions.

These are all baited questions and statements where you want me to respond and provide more information on my engineering background. The same tactics you used on yeahthatguy

Don9, you are more in tuned as to what is happening to this state, what you have wrote in this thread is the reality of this state. For the varies reason that you have laid out are the reasons my family is leaving for a better life in another state. Hope to see you at the fishing hole someday.

No Don ... too incredibly hilarious .... really ... no no no ... YOU have stated many times -- without ever being asked -- that you are an engineer in the aerospace industry ... you have used your experience in that employ repeatedly in discussions with many posters for two years ... I never asked you ... these are rhetorical questions, obviously. Now come on, you really seriously have me all but totally convinced you are a fictitious persona. It is not possible to be as dense as you present and also be educated and in possession of a job as demanding as engineering aerospace.

And I never used any such tactics on ytg. I never asked what kind of degree he had, where it was from, where he was from, or any such ... he himself repeatedly presented himself as well under 30 years of age and the closest I could be accused of coming to a personal question for him was to have labeled him "28". (Which, by the way, he responded to by calling me "stupid" -- that was the word -- for assuming his age was 28 ... when in fact it is 27 ... talk about stupid!).

You guys are bizarre, the both of you.

Your fan club has wrote you Donnie ... be sure to wrote them back.
(I guess it's more of that 'netspeak' that ytg uses.)
