Although I do not like some of the comments by a certain member, I do respect the US Constitution's 1st Amendment where said member is granted the same right for freedom of speech as I and everyone else here.
Now, on the other side of the coin if those comments violate CPF policy the message board does have the right to stifle said speech.
BTT: my neighbor is a budget light flashaholic. He probably has over 100 flashlights, none of which was over $35. He marvels at some of mine until he finds out how much it costs to buy one for himself. I've gifted a few to him. When he got a divorce he said "she can have the dog, the car, the curtains and the silverware but if she thinks she's getting any of my flashlights she's sadly mistaken".
