Post# of 110501
First of all, I'm not here to pick an online fight with anyone. I hope no one takes it that way. My main objective here is to become a better trader/investor. I've been following Nick since the 90s when we were back on Raging Bull or whichever page was before it I believe. 95% why I'm here. The other is that I enjoy hearing/reading other's opinions on some of the off topic subjects that come up.

I had a reply typed up and hit delete by mistake. I'll summarize now because it was probably too long anyway and I'm tired of typing. I don't regret anything I typed in the post you're referring to. We all are entitled to our own opinions and if we were not, we would not be the country we claim. I'm not sure where you are from, but in my part of the world, I've been dealing with those things listed in my post for the better part of 40 years and I hate to say, but it is not "a few bad apples" any longer. I don't need Fox News to tell me what I see on a daily basis. Yes, I watch Fox and I'm glad there is at least that conservative voice for my side. It surely is NOT ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, CNBC, Matt Lauer, Chris Todd, Ed Schultz, Solidad O'Brien, Alan Colmes, etc etc.

I am obviously conservative. I believe most on this board are, maybe 95%. I typically listened/read posts and did not pipe in very often. Like others, I'm sure, I had enough of listening to one person on this board basically bash the way the majority here thinks (our opinions if you will). Seems like a "You're all stupid, I'm smart, you're all wrong, I'm right" mentality. To me, that is like going to someone's home town and in front of the whole town saying "I hate this place, it sucks". Pretty insulting and disrespectful.

As for your post being the reason for my reply about being labeled a Fox news nut job, it was actually the one below. That post is, in my opinion, also typical of the liberal media channels named above. Conservatives take the bashing for so long and then fight back a little. We are then demonized for doing so which is evident in the post below. Almost like we are supposed to sit back and take it forever. There does become a point when enough is enough.

Again, no disrespect meant to you or anyone on the board, so please do not take it that way. Probably still too long (and you should've seen the uncondensed version I accidentally deleted!)


A Lake Park man “obsessed with Fox News and the Republican party” is in jail today after he told police that he was going to have to kill his girlfriend because she was a “liberal.”
