Somebody pinch me. I engaged in what ended up as truly civilized debate. In DU. In the GUNS forum!

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

I fear for the integrity of the space-time continuum.

:scared:

1. Saw that.

:toast:

[Zomby Woof]

2. Compared to GD these days

That may not be the big feat it once was. :-)

[Robb]

3. +1. nt

[Warpy]

4. I've had quite a few reasonable discussions there

although it doesn't happen consistently.

Sometimes the real loons are off shooting something and the sane people are around to discuss.

It doesn't happen often but it happens.

[BurtWorm]

5. Welcome back to reality.

:nuke:

[Gman2]

6. I've heard people beg mods to remove GUNS category, long live GUNS.

Otherwise, we would be hating gunners, instead of Dennis the menace, or Rahm, the snake/hero.

10. I think mostly people want it taken off the Latest page...

Like Lounge posts don't show up on the Latest page..

A lot of people find some of the posts that go in there disturbing..

I don't care myself, just explaining it a bit.

22. I know what you mean

You don't expect so many authoritarian, anti-civil right posters on a progressive forum like DU.

[depakid]

16. It's actually a wise to have separate fora for guns and Israel/Palestinian issues

the latter of which was developed through some very tiresome experiences.

8. no

we have lots of different forums for specific interests here, it helps to keep discussion topics organized on a site this size.

Welcome to DU...stick around and you just might learn something :hi:

[HopeHoops]

9. Great way to open one: "The 2nd Amendment just means you can wear a t-shirt outside."

Bare arms.

11. Ursine with a gas operated clip fed semi automatic rifle..

Armed bear..

[HopeHoops]

12. There has to be a way to work a stripper into this thread.

[Fumesucker]

18. What you stuff into a G-string..

Bare Alms..

[HopeHoops]

19. Okay, that works.

:hi:

[Fumesucker]

20. Barely..

:hi:

[HopeHoops]

25. Okay, can we just get to the naked truth of these puns?

[grantcart]

13. I have had some very reasonable discussions there

They have convinced me that more gun legislation is a waste of political capital and time.

It is hard to argue with the idea of passing more laws if the current ones are not being enforced.

[Mimosa]

14. Haven't visited in forever but IKWYM

There are people in the GD now who are even more crude nasty and rude than some who backed primary candidates.

I just noticed a couple who attacked me haven't been here as long. I fear one is a moderator, too.

But mods aren't supposed to curse out members, are they?

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

15. Ironic that it happened on the night of the big massacre. Including one of your special friends. nt

[applegrove]

17. I don't believe it. Surely you lie LOL!

[rgbecker]

21. Note: No link!

[pipoman]

23. Most of the incivility in the Guns forum

comes from the rabid prohibitionists these days..

[Dappleganger]

24. LOL, don't feel bad...they attack me and I'm on their side!

They do tend to be a bit hyper-vigilant, however.
