You got a point and you're making a federal case about it.

Where's that guy that used to confiscate people's man cards? He is sorely needed.
And you deserved the point you earned for knowingly breaking the rules. Why don't you show you're such a man and try to earn a few more?

I've gotten more infractions then you can dream of, sonny! I'm 40 years old, I'm a man!

You don't even register on the annoyance meter. Post away, for all I care. But quit acting like a whiney little sissy. You're embarrassing yourself.

He got caught reselling them on eBay.

I did something I knew would get me a point and I got it. End of story.

You did something that you got you a point and are acting like a spoiled brat.

If you need me to use smaller words or speak slower so you can understand please let me know. We accomodate the needs of the "special" posters.

I'm trying to leave Moderator37 out of this.

It's not illegal, it's unconstitutional. The Constitution is a charter of negative liberties. Says what the states can't do to you. Says what the federal government can't do to you, but doesn't say what the federal government or state government must do on your behalf.
