(14,912 posts)But to give you a little insight, it runs from street gangs as a pre-teen until late teens, military experience, back to street gangs and biker gangs and on to rubbing elbows with millionaires and some of the elite, ending with trying to live out my remaining days in peace & solitude in the deep backwoods, 15 miles from town in 3 different directions, about 25 miles in the 4th direction. My nearest "corner store" is about 4 miles away. I've run the gauntlet through them all, and would trust my live to a patched Outlaw quicker than a phony stuffed shirt. I prefer the company of real people over a phony any day of the week, but mostly prefer to be left alone....
Now, how about that definition of a "Fetishist"? Am I one, because I own a hunting rifle that is over 35 years old, or a 1956 Romanian SKS military issue, which are very rare in the US? You can find more of the Russian, Yugoslavian and cheap, mass produced Chinese Norincos than you can shake a stick at, but, as I already stated, then Romanians are very hard to find.
Will that definition be coming soon, or shall I not hold my breath, sir? Afterall, "When things are not called by their right names, what is said cannot make sense.... Right??
