    Calm down, Adnoto

    I don't give a shit why he is here. If he is willing to make such jokes then he is no better than shooter as far as I am concerned and I am going to let him know it.

    -- adnoto

    You're stubbornly missing the point of the "joke". He was making fun of you because you're always talking about 'taking it to the man', so it would stand to reason that you were at one of these houses readying yourself to 'take it to the man' unless you're all talk. 'The Man', in cases like this, are a bunch of thugs. We know that. But the way you go on about how tough you are, one has to wonder which side you're on.

    Anyway, the joke was that the all talk Adnoto was quite likely safely elsewhere while all of this was going on. The joke was not a gleeful hope that Adnoto had been arrested. Really, Adnoto, it's not all about you.
