Henry,
I know I as well as others have been hasty on occasion to judge poster's fast and hard. And, I dare say all of us have experienced at some time in our lives, being judged fast and hard and in our opinion wrongly.
I knew from his Linked In profile where he was from before I started the conversation with him on his second username after the mods gave him the boot.
He sent me a pm and we exchanged a couple and I told him he needed to try again but with a different mindset if he were truly offended and had honest intentions. He has come back on and is posting. No, not as we are used to and many of us are still offended with his style.
But, he will make or break himself. Mostly so far, broken.
As far as his nationality, I have reservations which I don't care who thinks I may be prejudiced, bigoted, etc. The region largely speaks for itself. So, what side is he on? That remains to be seen. But, can't we say that about many even natural born in this country? It's not always about skin color, religion, political party, or many other factors. It is what I as an individual choose to make of myself and do with the education, training, upbringing, and environment (family and culture wise) that I am raised with.
Just as I have said of education, good men can come out of ANY school and bad men can come out of ANY school. It is not TOTALLY because of the professors, books of study, courses, etc but what you learn and attempt to apply from those studies. Same with nationality. Not every person from the middle east is bad.
I would remind him though, this is not Linked In nor Facebook. We serve a different purpose here and a significantly different membership.
God Bless You Henry. Get well and keep us educated and informed about all things with your health as well as welding.
He Is In Control, Have a Great Day, Brent
