You really need to learn to recognize sarcasm when you see it.
Thanks much and now I finally get it...through my sometimes thick skull. When Blueflag stated "That’s all that matters here", the term here did NOT refer to the Free Republic forum but to the locale of the incident itself. I am indeed most sorry for the misunderstanding (solely on my part) and apologies -- without equivocation -- to all involved.
Now that things have been clear to me, it serves to reaffirm that knee-jerk racism has never existed here on FR -- aside from that summer 2009 incident when liberals signed up en masse to discredit this forum.
