Crispin, I post as a moderator and I post as a member.
As a moderator anyone can post in any thread within TN rules and guidelines.
Speaking as just a member and not a moderator here, our rights are OUR rights, anyone who is not an American has no dog in this fight as far as "I" am concerned. I am speaking strictly for myself, I wouldn't care if the member is from England, Japan, or any other country, if they are not American citizen by birth or naturalization they have no right to tell me what my rights are or are not under our Bill of Rights and Constitution....
As I said before, no one has the right to give or take my rights, I was born with them when I was born in this country, the last 4 generations of my family have served and fought in wars to preserve our rights including myself, it could go back further, I only traced it back 4 generations........My great grandfather fought in the civil war, maybe one day I will try to trace it back farther, I know I am Irish and Scottish descendent's on my fathers side.......
It is no different then my trying to go into a forum in Japan, England or anywhere else and telling them what they should and should not do with their rights, it is not my business....
