Okay, Joe. I understand about redundant threads, particularly related to Iraq. Now please explain to me why one of the threads that was moved had ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH IRAQ!   

The thread that was entitled "Terror Alert Level: Purple Haze!" is most emphatically NOT about Iraq. It is about the people who were busted this past week for selling Marijuana smoking paraphenalia over the Internet! Did you even bother to look at the content of the post or did you just assume that you knew what the content was based on the thread title? GUEST who started the thread was making a joke when he chose the title for it. My wife was unable to get into a military housing complex the other day because of heightened security. She joked that since she was wearing a plaid jacket we must be at alert level "plaid". Same kind of joke. Get it?

Personally, I feel that the folks getting busted for selling bongs is a topic worthy of discussion on this forum. Those items were sold to individuals who paid for them by credit card. Computers have been confiscated and The Justice Department now has the name and address of every person who ever made a transaction. You can bet your ass that there are some people waiting for a knock on the door right now.

I believe you made a mistake and I respectfully request that you move that thread back to the main forum.

Sincerely,

Bruce W. LaWall
