I have had a real growing/learning experience through being a part of such a community. I fell hard into the trap of dehumanization.

I have tried to be a bit more respectful. Try being the pivotal word.

I think part of the problem is we, in many cases, only have a face value view based on what a poster says in their typing and that is really not enough to gain the type of insight needed.

Even after meeting people face to face for a dinner, there still exists imaginations which are colored by the things we type which do not reflect reality.

If given the opportunity to explain what is said most of us could.

I have been accused of many things here which really don't fit me, and that by friends and brothers.

I has been a learning experience.


You have mellowed through the years Scooter. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Woohoo!

Jennifer getting jumped in is getting "jumped/beat up" by everyone in the gang (or a certain portion of the gang) to be apart of it.

Same thing is required for motherhood.
There never was a horse that couldn't be rode and there never was a cowboy that couldn't be throwed.

depends on the gang, they are all different but for the most part you HAVE to, some have different methods such as walking a line and getting pounded until you fall then start again....
Most surround you then they start a clock and they jump you while you defend yourself the best you can.

I broke one guys nose when I was jumped in, then took a really bad beating :shock: I still have the cigarette mark that they burn into your hand..
