doublegunshop.com - home Forums Do we need another Misfires?

sxs: sadly, you are just confirming what is suggested here.

It's misfires! There's lots of political stuff there. What has that to do with other subjects?

What I don't understand is why the political threads would make someone uncomfortable starting a thread on some other subject? If I wanted to talk about my boy or gardening or a great new recipe, I'd do that without a second thought.

HD, perhaps if you want to raise some new subjects, and this goes for anyone else, why don't you just do it.

Shooting Sportsman forum site has an area for politics, one for hunting and dogs and another for general interest as well as guns.

Why not have this forum create a separate politics/ gun rights section?

Italiansxs's criticism of Rick Beckner's posts is ridiculous. Rick posts on gun related subjects and is very educated in his area of expertise. I just got a firm negative opinion of SXS. Of course, I would be reluctant to criticize pro gun attitudes.

Eightbore:
He's got around 250 posts apparently mostly asking questions. Go ahead and look for yourself. I don't know this guy from Adam but I've done my best to keep politics out of this area and for that I get attacked.
Additionally my primary goal has been to keep everyone informed about attacks on our rights and this has included multiple go arounds with the closet gun grabbers on here who are trying to cause trouble.Again: Anyone who doesn't want to know what's go on has a easy out DON'T READ MY POSTS!
If he's a friend and you want to defend him SO BE IT. But keep in mind he started it.
And keep in mind: he initially teed off on me NOT the other way around.

Several thoughts on this thread which certainly has NOTHING to do with DoubleGuns, and which certainly belongs in Misfires...

First, King Brown tees off with how crude, nasty, disgusting, racist, and misogynist Misfires is. But 98 of Kings last 100 posts were in Misfires. He can't seem to get enough of it. And I'd like to see him show us some proof of either racism or misogyny in Misfires. Put up or shut up.

Second, King Brown's 2 posts out of his last 100, which appeared here on the front page, were in his most recent attempt to discredit the NRA. We get a lot of that from King over in Misfires. That thread, "NRA's Tea Party", was apparently deemed a Second Amendment thread... therefore off topic, evil, and forbidden... and therefore unceremoniously moved to Misfires. So why hasn't this off topic thread, along with many other off topic threads, gotten moved to Misfires??? What is it about Second Amendment threads which upset so many people? The Second Amendment Thread Police apparently cry to Dave Weber to have them removed. Seems to me protection of the Second Amendment is our best assurance of being able to continue to enjoy Double Guns... and any other guns.

Third, like canvasback, I simply don't see what supposedly inhibits big strong grown men from starting a Thread in Misfires on hunting dogs, cooking wild game, gardening, etc., just because politics is the dominant topic. If you don't like the politics stuff... you simply don't click on them. Easy! And not really scary at all!

Finally, I really appreciate the fact that Jim (Italiansxs) helps keep us up to date on threats to our gun rights. I thought Rick Beckner's insult was clueless. Jim really has done his best to keep politics out of the Double Gun forum. I won't make that promise myself because I just can't ignore the Liberal Democrat bastards who are trying their damnedest to take our guns away. Sorry. (No, I'm really not!)

I second Vernal Pike's suggestion.

Your self-centeredness will be the end of you. A man with integrity knows when he is wrong and freely admits to being a fallible human being, as are we all. Do you think you are better than the rest at protecting their rights? Do you take total responsibility for the protection of those rights? I think that some of the others here would prefer that you lighten up and let them enjoy the site.

Lets see here:
This guy above has been a member for 3 Months with 36 posts. To the best of my knowledge; I've never had any interaction with him what-so-ever. So he's now an authority on what I post regarding our 2nd Amendments rights in the Misfires area?
Conclusion: He's a Libtard troll and a prime candidate for the Ignore list. Being an "authority" can go both ways.

Keith, maybe some of the members are having difficulty hitching up their big boy pants and getting on with things. Like you, while I don't always have a comment, I like the steady stream from Jim.

Agree, disagree, comment or don't comment, I'm glad he's putting the stuff up here. I don't have time in my day to sift through the internet at large. Like the Huffington post, we have our very own aggregator. Thanks Jim!
