Glad the author finally figured it out over the course of days or weeks. It took many of us here about two seconds.

If they haven't gotten your brain, it was always the way to bet. Not the way to know, but the way to bet. Some of the early posts on this were pansy assed hilarious.

I thought he got zotted for being a general pain in the arse.

I downloaded the Preparation-H app and it cleared that right up.

Thanks for the beautiful photos - I haven’t seen any for awhile so it is nice to see it is spring somewhere!

And I find it real interesting, in a social dynamic type way, how various folks are up in arms about who the author is, how long has swampsniper been around, “he should know better”, I bet he is a blog pimp, etc. All sorts of sleuthing going on with confusion (huh? Bob is really swampsniper!?) and finger pointing.

I thought he got zotted for being a general pain in the arse. There is always somebody willing to pick-up the banner and continue the fight. Are you his replacement?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Humble getting the zot for being a PITA? You thought that?

What other thoughts have you had? Care to share?

Besides I could never be humblegunner’s replacement. I still have loads of interning to do before I ever reach his superstar levels of being a pain in the arse.

But I’m trying.

I can’t think of any crime with which Zimmerman should be charged. He was punched in the nose and the guy was slamming his head into the concrete—how could firing his gun not be deemed to constitute self-defense? Well, the prosecutor was able to avoid having to go to a grand jury by not chargiong him with murder, but Zimmerman will still face a jury of his peers from Sanford, FL, and the prosecutor better bring some real evidence, not a bunch of 5-year-old pictures and stories about Skittles and iced tea.

This is true about the homeless man.....Zimmerman went to his defense....

..Hannity and Zimmerman's dad were talking about this the other night, with the attorneys present.

yet instead of “seeking the truth” the prosecutor is adopting an “arrest everyone no matter what” strategy in order to wash government hads of the POLITICAL problem and sacrifice zimmerman on the altar of hoodie law.

the problem is we need second amendment minded people ON the jury.

This means those pro second amendment people can not surrender their jury duty to al sharpton.

Looks like he is going to be arrested.

I thought you meant Swampsniper for a minute. What is wrong with some people on this thread today?

Its amazing that so many freepers don’t know how to read the difference between the poster of an article and the author of an article....I have seem quite a few posters take heat for posting an article and people think the poster is the author....come on people, figure out headlines, authors and postes. It is not hard..

It’s amazing how many FReepers jump to conclusions before reading the posts on the thread. Before the Mods mercifully corrected the thread’s original post, the author of the article was listed as “swampsniper.” Go to post #16 (to which I copied-and-pasted how it read originally) and see for yourself.

Oops, it’s post #16, not post #13, that includes the thread title (and author) as originally posted.

You came in late to the game, hon. Admin Mod fixed his error.

Anyway, if someone were to post a reference to their own blog, it wouldn’t *be* a vanity.
