I find my self under fire on american soil. I want people to know I am not a bad person. If someone wants to take the risk trying to hurt me or my family they are in for a suprise. I was raised in the military from birth. My father was in special forces for 20 years. I followed in his foot steps for 6 years. My wife knows how to defend herself very well. I say to the people that want to hurt me or my family, we are armed so come get some!

Wrong. "Mercenary" can describe a person who serves or works for the sole purpose of monetary gain, which is exactly what you described your previous situation to be. So, in fact, brittZ was correct...you were acting as a mercenary.

But that is neither here nor there...

Just wanted to clear it up for you.

Scott, I understand your defensiveness regarding your family. However I would caution using too strong words on this site as it could be misinterpreted and could cause you to get banned pretty quickly, or worse.

when someone tells me I could be putting myself at risk, how do I take that.
Am I being threatened of is it a friendly warning?
