Keith in the middle of this thread Jim said he was going to post gun-rights in this section regardless of policy. Did you read that? Many of the scoldings you are giving us are because of our responses to that post.
I suppose that voting on any subject doesn't necessarily give the very very best possible outcome but it is a rational method of settling issues and creating peace. Do you think that settling things by voting is a bad idea in general or just on this board.
I have had threads moved. Others here have had threads moved. If you believe a post in this section is off topic feel free to report it.
And for the umpteenth time this a forum for gun owners and it is about firearms. We are zealous. We are vigilant. We are NRA members.
There are many threads in the Misfire section that start out as gun rights, wind into idealogy, then political parties, some use the phrase "the Kenyan" to identify the president, and then arguments about whether we can remove him from office for being born out of the country. Aren't you the one who refers to President Obama as "The Kenyan". Don't you have dozens of posts about the conspiracy to cover up his birth place. If not I apologize for mixing you up with someone else.
I don't want that discussion in this section. Most of us don't. If ya'll start posting gun rights threads here that "Kenyan" discussion will be here too. And gun rights posts will continue to be reported because they will have devolved into politics and conversations about birth conspiracy.
I guess we could then have another multipage thread sustained by the two or three of you sustaining this one about how politics needs to be in the main section because it is directly connected to gun rights.
I concede the point that I had, in a previous post, left the last word to others and didn't. Of course this post won't be the last either.
I am delighted to report that I am going to spend the next few days running my dogs in a field trial. Perhaps it will lift my cranky mood. Apparently my soon-to-be absence is improving my wife's mood as I can hear her in the next room happily singing. I don't expect to have internet access.
Best,
Mike
