PART 2: I'm new an your 50-post rule sucks! Please change it for my convenience.

I have question: Is there a discussion anywhere on this forum re whether or not assault rifles should be available to civilians? I have a couple myself, but I believe owning them is outside our 2nd amendment protections and frankly, not necessary. What do you guys think? (heh)

For posterity

ideals about what is best for all

See, I just don't believe there is really very many "best for all" ideas. I believe going down that road is a mistake.

You are welcome to have that discussion in the appropriate forum. Do a search and add your .02, it has been discussed before. Ths isnt the thread for it.

And sitting in a thread firing off post after post after post is no way to make a run to 50. I suggest you find another thread and start interacting instead of filling this thread with your beefs. Official warning. Posts may be deleted by mods at our discretion if we feel they are just to pad your post count in a run to 50.

Oh I'm quite sure many have been removed for just that. Now, the reason given for the removal may have been much different. I'll be gone very soon, without a doubt, and it will not be for calling names or doing any harm.

Well, if you'd taken any time to participate in this community meaningfully, you'd realize how wrong you are. There are plenty of people on here who advocate for all different types of positions and have never gotten banned, because they were decent, polite, and followed the rules.

Plus, you've already started the name calling in another thread, so don't give me that.

But for now, hey, I gotta get to 50, right?

You just keep diving down that hole don’t you

And it appears that is yet another thing you would be wrong about.

...taking the time to post 50 quality posts so that others can get a feel for who you are and whether they want to deal with you in a transaction...

On the other hand, with his posts so far I think most of us have enough info to make that decision already, so you should really go ahead and give him early access to the classifieds.

Well played…

No, we dont ban based on ideals @mrmiller21 . Keep it between the ditches by not being rude or offensive and you may have whatever belief you want. (within limits like no calling for insurrection) We wont ban you just because you have an unpopular opinion. Just have thick skin and be prepared to stand by your decision. Unpopular opinions that are considered unconstitutional and against freedom will take HEAVY incoming fire. So be prepared to defend your position with facts and logic.

Be sure to read the rules. They are in my signature.

Also until you reach 50 posts, no one liners. Those will be deleted. Or two liners like youve been posting here. The posts must be informative and interactive aimed at continuing a discussion. Below 50 posts, comments like "I bought one. Its nice." are not considered quality. Now if you take the time to write a paragraph or two one exactly what features you liked about the item and why, THEN it would be a quality post.

#1 What is an "assault rifle" in your mind?

#2 What makes you think...whatever they are...that they are not included in the 2nd Amendment?

#3 What is "necessary" in your mind?

He created a thread on this topic and mods told him to knock it off in here. FYI

How many have ever had need of an assault rifle?

And please tell the story about how you used your assault rifle to save yourself from peril.

Ehh... this deserves the real popcorn.

I think it's a great rule and totally understand. I mean, no one who would post 50 times could possibly be a crank, right? Most would just give up and take their comments/business elsewhere. Wait...that's a much better plan.

 

[Jaybird1980]

I bet most here believe it's silly to even discuss ideals about what is best for all if it involves in any way curtailing access to nearly any weapon. Right? This helps to explain the current bizarre phenomena plaguing our nation politically. The tendency to hide one's eyes or cover one's ears whenever we hear or see anything that is outside what we WANT to believe. It's a scary thing, but it's where we have arrived as a people...at least 30 percent of people.

Speaking of hiding eyes and ears from anything we WANT to believe, how is the violence going in those "Gun Free Zones"?

You know what is really scary..... FREEDOM.
