I've never seen Y spewing BS.

Me neither. In fact he is the closest thing to a human BS detector I have ever seen.  :yes:

Absolutely.  :yes:

I encountered him well over a decade ago. How he put up with my ignorance and emotional turbulence is well beyond my ability to comprehend. I said some things to him I came to deeply regret a long time ago, and I still regret them to this very day. But he never held any of that against me and we became friends; a fact that I am proud of despite my idiotic behavior very early on.

He has taught me things I would have never learned otherwise, and still does so. I value his perspectives even when I disagree with them. They force me to think outside of the box and to use critical thought. Many times his views have been responsible for leading me to new paths and thoughts / ideas.

THAT is a true teacher in my view. And he does it extremely well.  :yes: And the thing about it is it is free and doesn't cost you anything except the time to listen or read. And he gives it freely and in the true spirit of enlightenment.  :yes:
Don't know him myself but usually people who spout off like he does is only trying to impress and it turns me off from the get go. Most of what he says is theory and, IMO, cannot be considered as fact. Some of it is opinion which is also not fact. Maybe that makes me close minded but so be it. I do listen to different opinions and sometimes have changed my mind about something but skip all the BS and big words and just talk I'm not impressed.

Perhaps because the entire post rests on the premise that liberal politicians want to do away with the 2nd amendment and disarm everyone which is bullshit?
