[Em1Kid288]

Hello all. If you post in the Politics Subforum of PBN you have probobly been offended at some point, or at least offended others. I make an effort to always remember that ones political or religious beliefs, no matter how different than my own, does not mean they are an enemy of mine, or that I should dislike them on a personal level.

I've often times found myself wondering who some of you really are. So, I thought that this thread could be used to describe yourself, and let everyone know who you are, as a person, not based on your political or religious beliefs.

I will go first, and hope that others will follow suit. I'd like to think most of the Politics Subforum can handle something like this.
