Yes yes of course- ahem... Lucrum was a kind soul- extending to all he approached and welcoming to all who approached him. Deep down, we all know he loved blacks, gays, democrats and prostitutes alike- And I suspect he may have even voted for Abe Lincoln! I, for one, shall also miss the way he exposed liberals for their ignorance, his unforgettable tantrums, and the blunt way he would treat foreign women who spoke out of place. But perhaps the thing I enjoyed most about Lucrum was his intolerance for humanity. He always expected perfection- not only from our leaders, but also from America's former indentured slave races- particularly the Blacks, and the Mexicans. But ironically he never attempted to embrace such perfection for himself- no, he was just too true to his own lovable and fallible human nature. On some occasions, I think I may have even pissed myself a little laughing over his antics, for few others could show their ass, without so much as a moment's hesitation, quite like Lucrum. If ever anyone deserves to be forever archived in ET's databanks- it is Lucrum, for no other in ET's history has shown the fortitude to weather the countless liberal spiels , and he alone may have put up with more of AK's leftist remarks than any other right wing McCarthyist on this website. My hope is that all who encountered him will remember him- not for the innumerable slants against gays, blacks, immigrants, and others less fortunate than him, but rather for his zest to show warmth, and compassion for his friends, and the individuals he admired such as Vladimir Putin. But most of all, my prayer is that we shall forever respect his insatiable drive, and his unmatched discipline to create a vast wealth of anti-Obama posts for future generations of anti-liberals to draw from. And though he be banned, may he forever live in our hearts and in our minds- especially when it comes time to vote! When ever I think of Lucrum, I will contemplate the profound words of our Republican Commander in Chief, Richard Milhous Nixon, "Always remember others may hate you but those who hate you don't win unless you hate them. And then you destroy yourself." "Only if you have been in the deepest valley, can you ever know how magnificent it is to be on the highest mountain." May we each take at least a short moment to say thanks for the time we were able to spend, and the lessons we were able to learn from a great pilot, family man, and friend. We love you Luc, and peace be with you- even if some of your grandchildren were to end up marrying outside of bloodlines. Amen

Reading his content he seems to have owned you at every turn. Certainly you would not say much to his face as you are a bit of a jackal and he would make quick work of you. lol Now that he cannot answer you are emboldened. What a coward.
In all seriousness though, banning valuable members makes for a less interesting forum. Bring back the a-holes, I say, for they know their shit better than anyone. Sincerely, Hoof
Honestly, I've had a bit of fun at Lucrum's expense, and the truth is there is no one on this forum I had more respect or admiration for, and I'm sure I can speak for a good many, when I say I have a great love for the man. I realize at times I may be blunt, sharp, or speak obtrusively about things I care about, but most often I do not take any offense from others, nor do I mean any long term ill feelings toward others. I truly enjoy the level of debate and humor on this forum, and also the challenge of engaging with highly intelligent individuals. All the while underneath, I care about people- and especially the ones I may spat with from time to time. Anyone who knows me personally, knows I'm just a big pussy cat, who wouldn't hurt a hair on anyone's head that I didn't feel I would have to. I also wouldn't get tough with anyone I didn't think was tough enough to handle it, but as I am human, I am often wrong in these matters. I may at times feel a certain satisfaction from putting others in their place, but no doubt the more valuable lessons in life have come from when humility has shown me where my place is. In these regards, Lucrum and I had (have) a lot in common. Right or wrong, you could always count on Luc to speak his mind, and often, just as Pie mentioned, he could change your way of thinking. It was easy to see too, that he was an easily forgiving person, and I suspect he too felt a bit heart broken when AK-47 self destructed and called for his own annihilation. Lucrum also had the ability to instill confidence in others who may have felt weak, and if ever anyone was good to his friends- it was Lucrum. Don't get me wrong- I wouldn't touch his politics, but I'd take his character and his heart any day of the week. As AAA said, Lucrum was/is a man's man, and no doubt that will always present a threat to some individuals. I don't know what happened, or who was involved, but if there were any way to resolve it, and if Lucrum, Barron, or whatever party involved needed their ass kissed a little-or to settle any ruffled feathers, I would happily sign a petition, or make a contribution of some other sort to help get the ball rolling. Luc is just too damn important to this forum to be lurking in the shadows as an alias- or even worse-gone. So, if there's anything I or we can do to help resolve this, I am all ears, and will try my best be resilient in this matter.
