Wrong: It is NOT political it's idealogical. There are many Democrats that support the right to keep and bear arms right along with Republicans. This is an issue that clearly crosses party lines. Jim

If you know the history behind the term "Redneck" you would wear the term like a badge of honor, and say Thank You!! West Virginia (Hillbilly) or Matewan or Sid Hatfield come to mind?

It's both ideological and political Jim. The definition of "political" is much broader than your use of it.

My personal opinion of all this pretense at being offended is that it is after all just a method of empowerment by controlling the speech and hence the thoughts of others...Geo, with all respect Off the topic of the thread but that was profound. Did you hire a ghost writer?
I am glad to be here.

Jim It certainly does cross party lines and for some strange reason it often surprises folk on gun forums when they discover there are Democrats and Liberals well-represented in the shooting fraternity.

And, not every Republican is interested in having his/her reproductive rights trod upon either.

Well since it is idealogy who are we trying to convert here? I don't see anyone on here against concealed carry, open carry, possesion of handguns, rifles, shotguns.
It is a disagreement over what makes us happy here. Most are happier with the the gun rights discussion in the designated forum. That is the official rule.
The name-calling stuff is just a distraction from the real issue.
Dave Webber has sometimes had polls here to decide policy. Perhaps those of you who would like could petition Dave for a poll to move the guns-rights discussion to this forum. If you win it will be discussed here. If you lose it stays as is.
Best,
Mike

George I meant my post was off the topic. As I read it now it looks like I might be critizing the post you made. I wasn't.
Thanks,
Mike
