Four Minneapolis officers fired after death of black man

[Joshua]

This.


It isn’t guns.

It is, but have you noticed that some really interesting current events have popped up recently? Maybe it's reasonable to discuss those too!

I agree whats the under/over on this new user making till the morning?

What rules have I broken?

Obviously just trying to get to 50.

Purple text me all you like, but that's honestly part of the motivation. Frankly, I don't care for the Republicans or the Democrats and I know myself well enough to know that I'll talk about that at some point. Might as well rip off the bandaid to see whether this is really a community for all IN gun owners, or just a club for Republican Party members (and maybe Libertarians) to do the culture war echo chamber thing like too many gun forums seem to be these days.

I thought CM issued a warning that tensions are already running high and trolling will not be tolerated in this thread?

As long as you don't vote for candidates who seek to suppress my 2A rights, I don't really care.

Downtown Louisville is basically trashed.

I am 100% in earnest and not trolling. I did the trolling thing when I was younger. It was kind of funny, but ultimately pointless. Politics is too serious to be a jerk about.

We're good then.

Not helpful.

Quite the opposite.

This is what I mean when I say this place is not welcoming to new people. Hear one thing you don't like, and suddenly you're already talking bans.

It's like you actually understand what I'm saying about new users being shoved out by the established users.

 

[Sigblitz]

Well it's off topic. We have a political thread.

Just trying to help.

Call it what you will but you obviously have to know that your presentation here at this juncture would surely ruffle some feathers.

Just say’n.

Example. A question about a Remington 700 would be better received in the long guns thread than, say, the gardening thread.

When your first 4 posts are anti republican on a primarily republican site it throws up a few flags. Maybe I misjudged, just try to understand we have people that come just to cause trouble and not actually discuss anything. Sorry if I was wrong.

 

[tbhausen]

Yeah, we better keep this one on topic if we want to keep it open.

Maybe it’s a question regarding the use of one for the other?

 

[jamil]

I'm here to talk about guns. Politics are also important to me, so that's definitely something I'll be posting about too. If "TRUMP GOOD" is a prerequisite to post on INGO I'd appreciate people letting me know, since that's definitely not my opinion. The rules claim that this is an inclusive community for gun owners, so I'm taking them at their word. In the meantime I've posted an intro thread in the proper forum.

Well, when you talk about guns, as long as you’re not anti-gun, it’s non-partisan. In the political realm most people definitely lean right. So expect that viewpoint to dominate. And if you lean left, that’s fine. A few people here do. Just don’t be an ******* and you’ll be fine. That said, I’m not sure if this is the best way to demonstrate not being an *******. You know. Being new and all.

And you should know that, because you were treated as one of those people, as well. Now you fit in.

Give the guy a break.

For mole control.

 

[Trigger Time]

He would delight in that. Let's not forget that he quoted Headley, saying "when the looting starts, the shooting starts." Of course Trumo pretended ignorance later, which makes me think Miller might have been involved in the tweet since he's so passionate about white supremacy and has Trump's ear. Even so, this is the man who took out a full page ad in the notoriously trashy NY Daily News calling on the state to execute the Central Park 5. That he would be happy to have any excuse to order minorities killed seems obvious.

Bahahahahaha

Someone left the troll gate open

Louisville: they pulled down the American flag in Metro Hall and set fire to it. Oh. And in case anyone hadn’t heard, 7 people were shot Thursday night. All from the crowd. No police officer fired. No suspects.

 

[Sigblitz]

If you want to talk about what you had for breakfast, we have a thread for that too.

 

[jamil]

But I’m sure all the protestors are social distancing.

So their LTCH had reciprocity from whichever state they were bussed in from?
