I still don't quite understand, George. Probably just a "me" thing, but, if I don't want to look at a car wreck I don't look at it. I don't need something preventing me from turning my head that direction. Oh, well, no big deal.

All my best, Stan

I have been reading this board for 12 years. I have not used the ignore feature in those twelve years. I just don't read the posts of certain members. Sometimes enough is enough. I don't want to even see the repetitive posts, sometimes the same post in multiple threads. I come here to read about double guns. That is why it is called doublegunshop.

Why it would bother you so much that someone wants to use the feature that you would post twice about it is beyond me. Just drive by and ignore me.


So many guns, so little time!

Maybe some of us just don't want to risk stupidity by osmosis.

I don't know why an anti would want to be here--and they certainly get my blood pressure up--so thank you Keith for posting their own words!! Second amendment issues are vital, or we will be dismantled piecemeal. I am concerned about rules which even now could impinge on my right to hunt with a drilling under certain circumstances. Imagine a shotgun only rule on public land while bird hunting--you don't have the rifle ammunition with you, but the gun IS capable of firing a rifle round during closed season for big game. Will I have it confiscated though I am only using the shotgun capability (and perhaps by the desire of the officer to confiscate an expensive engraved weapon for himself?) No, we need common sense extended to us by authorities who are firearms friendly. I do NOT understand why we would trust those who are against our rights to be sympathetic. Expose them and vote them out! And expose the useful idiots who undermine out cause as well.

Fantods. Awesome word. Looked it up last time. Thanks LR. Going to pull that one out on my son next time he behaves like the 11 year old he is. LOL

PS, I thought it was with a wall. Tuning that is. Swimmin' pools, movie stars!

After four pages the question posed in the OP ("Do you insult your friends, strangers and associates as you do the members of this forum?") has not been addressed.
Instead, suggestions to ignore the offending posts and justifications for same have been discussed. And the name calling and insults continue.

Wyobirds you are correct, I failed to directly address the specific question at the start of the thread. Though I did think the nature of my postings did represent my answer, That said in specific answer I treat friends with similar respect that I show fellow members of this board.

I do not insult them in public forums, but I will try to intelligently argue points of view when I disagree. I do not attack them personally, I argue for civility even when emotionally I would love to type a scathing attack of a personnel nature. Lastly if I give personal offense that is reasonable (simply disagreeing is not an personnel offense) I am willing to make amends.

I will always argue for civility.

I figured out the problem: The board has too many wannabe mini-moderators and too few trolls.
