Like I explained, those comments were puzzling because you seemed to imply (by posting your response to me) that I also had the attitude that you objected to in those comments. Both your expression of surprise "at what seems to be PC in viewing people that "joined" as youth" and your statement that "you won't condemn anyone for having joined" seemed to me to be out of place in this thread. There was nothing in the posts previous to yours that referred to people joining as youths and there was no condemnation of people for having joined, so your comments seemed to me to be entirely out of place in this thread. You specifically placed your post as a response to me instead of placing it after CB's second post, which would have been the natural place to put it if you were just making general comments. Instead, you placed it as a direct response to me, and therefore, I assumed you were incorrectly ascribing to me those attitudes you object to.
Btw, is there a reason why you chose to use Moonshiner (capitalized, which I don't do) instead of your own handle? Once again I'm puzzled by your response.
