    Based on music taste and general "GET OFF MY LAWN" anger, I'd venture 50+.

    A 19 year old with obsessive traits who read Atlas Shrugged in 10th grade.

    This. I haven't seen enough overtly racist stuff from Hightop to make me believe that he's 60 or older.

    Yep, the unbridled, righteous anger of youth. If we’re patient we might bring him around.

    I also think if he was older he'd be more outspoken on gay marriage and other social issues. He'd probably evoke war stories too and wouldn't rally against medicare and social security.

    This is great. :rolleyes: A whole thread devoted to kicking a fellow poster, very similar to what happened to DaDakota. They may have made some ill-considered remarks, but I can't think of any of us who haven't.

    Asking about someone's age is kicking them down?

    o_0

    Do you feel a twinge somewhere after the census?

    Absolutely! I'm 65 and survived total renal failure, open heart surgery and six liters of fluid sucked off the linings of my lungs. I feel twinges every day, but I still walk three miles daily with 10 lbs. of weights strapped on my arms and legs. But let's be real -- you are not kicking Hightop on his age so much as his political views. You're piling on him but you're woefully silent on thadeus' equally assinine remarks.

    Cool on the first part.

    On the second, I have to say that if this is considered "piling on"...let's be real. The guy wants to play with fire? So be it. He can handle the heat. And if he can't, he needs to go home with his toys, and calm the f**k down. The guy rants and raves about killing socialists, and blowing up schools, commenting on his (absurdly archaic) music tastes is about a 1 on a 10 on that kind of scale. I don't much care, but hell, it definitely leaves him open to be attacked on anything.

    Perhaps you should read Jeff's stickied thread or re-read if you have. You, like everyone else here, are free to display your ignorance with reckless abandon just as Hightop and thadeus have done. Just remember everyone else has those same rights and it's not your place to decide who can post here and who cannot.

    You might want to re-read what I wrote and consider if the comment was really directed towards you. Keep in mind that buried in my ignorance and reckless abandon, I did call your opinion reasoned and moderate.

    You will learn that your original assessment was in error.

    I think he's a mid 40ish white guy reincarnated as a raging and festering hemorrhoid, possibly from a homeless man

    My apologies if my intemperate remarks were hurled with reckless abandon. I saw the **** and assumed your remarks were sarcastic rather than reasoned. Some protective instinct is triggered within me when the many attack the few ... or the one.;)
