Apparently you don't visit the Misfires forum -- that's the designated locale for this stuff.
Thanks, I guess this stuff has been spawning under my nose without me realizing it. Now it's migrating to the main board and I'm seeing it for the first time. I do wish that it would stay in its designated area rather than infecting the general board. Aptly termed.

I hate to say it, but the real fault lies with Dave.
He tolerates this stuff, and because he does, one can only assume he endorses it (or lacks the will to stand up to it).
Letting it continue under the guise of "open discourse" is just lame. He provides the forum, and it's his responsibility to direct its tone and direction. Other boards are moderated and this kind of BS doesn't seep into the main areas and stink up the experience for everyone else.
Dave's "hand's off" approach has put the board where it is today. Apparently he likes it as is and approves of where it is headed (which is to new lows every day).
And Italian, if you or anyone else sends me another charming PM, I'm going to post it in the open forum area. Be forewarned.

And I'll make the same charming be forewarned "recommendation" to you.
As usual you're F O S.
Let's see these racist and misogynistic posts you're claiming are here.
The 2nd Amendment IS an unalienable right.

Try it singular Jim -- as noted before, you'll find it in the Fausti thread.
Jay I searched "lesbian" singular and come up with one poster using this term in the untold thousands of posts on this board. And yes it's in the Fausti thread. I usually don't say anything publicly but I've PMed RWTF in the past and asked him to consider what he's posting before he posts it. I know it's not my responsibility but I for one do care. As far as 'racism" goes several of us have been labeled "Racist" because of our strong dislike for the current administration. This is a common Libtard ploy when they can't refute the truth thats come out about the utter decadence of this bunch socialists. It then becomes "lets play the race card and that will gag them". To me this has always been ironic coming from those that support an administration that as racist as they come Jim

Caleb, until now one could avoid the worst of the venom by staying away from Misfires, but recently even reading the main board requires donning a HazMat suit and undergoing decontamination after. A few members are still foaming at the mouth because there is a black man in the White House; you can just see them typing the second 'g' before catching themselves and changing it to 'Kenyan' or 'Negro'. The rabies slobber is starting to leak into the main forum and the rest of us get splattered.

Hi Caleb:
In the lower right hand corner of this post is a button marked "Notify". It is in the lower right hand corner of every post.
If you click it it will notify Dave that you think the post is objectionable. You can type in the box why you think it should be removed or moved.
Fox mostly posts mostly inane comments that are almost always spurious to the original topic. Most of us ignore him. I agree that the opinion he expressed on women in shooting sports is rude, chauvinistic, and politically incorrect. But being exposed to the expression of stupid opinions and prejudices is part of living in a free society. If everyone ignores his stupid post it is kind of like a pigeon crapping on the sidewalk. If we try to correct him it becomes more like a ton of cow manure dumped in the living room.
Many times racism is in the eye of the beholder. But there is no doubt in my mind racist comments are made here. There is no doubt in my mind racist comments are also made in the New York Times, The Huffington Post, Fox News, Rush Limbaugh's radio show and MSNBC.
So if you want a nice, polite, closely moderated and politically correct shotgun BBS you are going to have to go to The Shooting Sportsman board or Shotgun World.
As someone else pointed out this is a MisFires topic. If I wanted to I could "Notify" Dave and he might decide to move it to MisFires. Or he might decide I am full of it and leave it here.
Best Wishes,
Mike
I am glad to be here.

Don't you just love how Leftist get to decide what is "decent and civil" ?
What a whiney bunch.
Mine's a tale that can't be told, my freedom I hold dear.

As PostOak points, funny how it's always okay for some to behave this way but not others. I'll take RWTF'S silly and antiquated comments about women any day over crap like this!
The world cries out for such: he is needed & needed badly- the man who can carry a message to Garcia

Yep James: And please note most of these complaining "posters" have very low count numbers. I wonder why and how they've all just "discovered" this non-issue to complain about??  ONE poster uses the word "lesbian" in the untold thousands of threads here so now we're all misogynists! Now; You don't suppose there's some sort of hidden agenda here?
