Statement from William K. Wolfrum: "I mean no offense"
William K. Wolfrum released this statement to his supporters at 3 p.m.
"My friends, due to the current whirlwind of controversy surrounding me, I find it necessary to speak out once and for all.
I am an honest, hard-working man with strong convictions. Nonetheless, I find it necessary to alert people to one important fact - I mean no offense to anyone.
I fully understand that many people have taken umbrage with my stance on gay marriage issues. I have made it clear that my deeply held convictions make it impossible for me to support gay marriage. These same convictions have led me to fight for constitutional amendments outlawing gay marriage, not allowing gays to congregate, vote or be anywhere near children. I also support forcibly relocating all homosexuals and their allies to the vast expanses of Wyoming.
But these are just my beliefs. I mean no offense.
I also understand that many have been outraged with my stances regarding the African-American community. But I am a strict constitutionalist who believes that the U.S. Constitution - in its original form - is the greatest document in the history of mankind and should be followed explicitly, just like the Bible. So my beliefs that blacks should only count as 60 percent of a human and that slavery should be allowed are based on historical interests and love of country.
But just know I mean no offense.
Also, some liberal interest groups and pro-immigration organizations have taken me to task for what they call my "radical" beliefs in regard to Mexico. However, recent studies have shown that a strong minority of Americans believe that Mexico should be domed and then gassed. My beliefs on this issue are all based on national and economic security, and such so-called "radical" actions would improve the lives of all real Americans.
So you must know that I mean no offense.
There are myriad other controversies that have been created by my many vociferous detractors. My belief that all women who have an abortion or miscarry should be executed, for instance. Or my belief that the Muslim world would cooperate better with civilized humanity if Islamic nations such as Iran were put on a steady diet of tactical nuclear weapons. Or my belief that Scientology is the one true religion and all that have differing religious views should be exterminated with malice. Or that Adolf Hitler, for all his purported flaws, was a leader of great vision and artistic ability.
But, my friends, we live in a free country. I believe that fact is often ignored by those who send me death threats. They are infringing on my First Amendment right to speak about my beliefs. I am being censored for holding alternative views, and this is as un-American an act as can be perpetrated.
I thank all of you for standing by me during these difficult times where I am being victimized for my beliefs. But I will defend myself using any means necessary from those that would take away my ability to believe as I chose. No offense.
Thank you for your time and I have retained counsel on this matter."

And dinosaur fossils were planted in the rocks by Satan part of an attempt as to trick mankind?
Believe whatever you want but if you try to act on any those beliefs you should be put in jail or institutionalized for the rest of your life. Or, then again, you could be elected to higher office as a republican if you ran in the right district/state. Do you cheat on your wife or say 'you betcha' while quoting scripture often? If so you might have a future in the GOP.
You're still referring to yourself in the 3rd person though.

Ah, Libertine, you are such a literal reader!
What bothers me lately about expressions (not this post) is that as language evolves, certain words are ascribed unbelievable power. And then we apologize for using words that were acceptable in the past.
For example, it appears that the word RETARDED is no longer allowed in mixed company. I do not use that word any more. I don't think I ever used that word disparagingly but I did volunteer work for a group that had that word as part of its name.
So in the spirit of WFW, if anyone here has ever overheard me call one of chuckleheaded brothers RETARD or RETARDED any time from the 1950s through the 1970s, I apologize.
Sincerely.
I didn't mean any offense but believe me, my brothers provoked me, if indeed I used that word. But not to my knowledge...you know. You don't have it on tape, do you?

With all due respect, Senor Libertino, that's a crafty strategery (sic) on your part.

Yes...
For me Molly I've learned I had no choice but not to be offended and rise above it all, or just end up drowning in my own sh*t. :)

GUFFAW!!
Why do I know that every time someone begins a statement with "No offense, but" I'm, guaranteed to be offended. :-) Nice piece of satire.

Here's another one: "This is in your own best interest." Or, "This hurts me worse than it does you."
Very brave, William -- not sure everyone caught the snark!

Thanks for the nice words, you guys. And yeah, there are definitely some who despise me over certain tings I've written that have hit too close to home. Overall, however, most people get it, which pleases me greatly :)
No offense, mind you.
Bill

Life's tough for those who undertake to keep the deviants and marchers-to-different-drummers in line. I know just how you feel. My crusade these days is against those with facial hair wearing black hats with little ovoid shiny things on them.
And I mean no offense.
(Nice eyes, though.)
(LOL)

I must point out that the hat I have on in that pic was photoshopped on by Liss at Shakesville. I harbor no Cowboy fantasies. At least, none where I am the cowboy.
