How have I offended them?
The Silent Majority embraces all non-subs.
We would welcome them into our clan.
All are welcome.
We speak for that vast Silent Majority of RHP users too timid to stand up to the bullies. We speak for all who are out cast. We speak for all who are discriminated against.

I find it is more uninteresting to talk down upon people. I fine it very appealing actually getting to know them.
Originally posted by reader1107You bring in a valid point of view and it is very refreshing. I did not think of the starting point of the quote. I associated it with passed wars not players on rhp. I think the quote was originally spoken in a speech of a military general. I googled, but it did not come right up. I would be interested in being reminded what the original quote was and by whom.
