Apologies

[BigBear]

Badshot, while I wholeheartedly agree in the whole manner of "if you don't like what's on TV then chang the channel," I do realize that what I said (albeit jokingly) did hold a negative conotation towards our everyday heroes. People can and do form opinions online from every nuance a person mentions. For example, using bad grammar, puncuation, ebonics, and sentence semantics all can lead to someone thinking of a urban male texting about something when in fact it could truly be a rural sixty-two year old woman.

I just wanted to try to set the record straight and apologize as I truly meant it all in jest and have no ill will/feelings towards our LEO/MIL. I apologized privately, but still stood by my off color joke. I did think it was funny. I also thought I would apologize publicly as I'm sure with all the interaction on this site there is more than just one LEO/MIL/Alphabet on here. Heck, there are a few of each in my immediate family.

Anyways, I met this person and just didn't want him/her to think that I'm some punk kid with no respect etc...

So, bottom line, even though I am of the mind of "who cares what other people think", I also try to be respectful and turn the other cheek. If I offended someone with my words and they let me know, I will stand by what I said but I will also apologize. I try to get along with (most) everyone and I will try to explain what I meant by them....

You know, I like you Bear. You are always trying to do the right thing and you go out of your way to try to not offend anyone.

I know that this threrad wasn't looking for feedback and for kudos for doing the right thing, but I've gotta tell you that you can be my wingman ANY time.

You are a good man Bear!


You might be big, and I suspect tough (you can at least take care of yourself - we've seen that), but I wholeheartedly agree with Trouble on this one - you're a teddy bear at heart (this is a good thing).
