I have long held the belief that Obama is a preeminent thinker and intellectual, yet for some reason the former President has come across as a total dumbass ever since he joined this board. Now he seems to have lost his mind entirely. Sad. ---

Seems that wondrous gun debates are popping up all over, and we have a fabulous new join, **andylongino** , who just weighed in on the issue with two consecutive memorable posts [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=20603114&postcount=47) and [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=20603141&postcount=48). Unfortunately his posts, which doubtless reflect sound thinking, also reflect a level of illiteracy that makes the fractured English practically impossible to parse, so I really don’t know what he wants from us. The first one declares him to be an NRA member, in the spirit of _Ace Ventura: Pet Detective_, only here we have _andylongino: NRA Member_. I did manage to glean from this the fact that “there are sheep, sheepdogs and wolves.” I gather this to be some kind of parable, and Nazi Germany somehow figures in it, but beyond that I’m lost. His second venture into mangling the language comes in the very next post. As far as I can tell, it has something to do with a school principal bringing a gun to school for years and years and then he didn’t and then something very bad happened and if the school principal had had his gun he could have shot whatever bad thing it was that happened and so there you are. I assume it’s just like with the sheep, sheepdogs, wolves, and German Nazis. But he’s not just a one-trick pony, this new join. [He has also opined](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=20603074&postcount=170) in the thread about transgendered people. Once again, I have no idea what he wants us to do because no one I know speaks the unnatural language that he uses, but he seems to have worked gays and gay marriage into the topic, and I think he’s against it. At least, there’s a headline over the post that says “not natural”. It’s not clear whether he thinks being gay is not natural or whether this is another cognomen like “NRA Member”, like so: _andylongino: Not natural_. Certainly if he’s referring to his writing, I would have to agree. ---

sigh… can we just have a flag or maybe color coding for any thread started by someone who joined less than 48 hours before? It’d be handy to skim down the list and avoid the most spammy. (oh, wait… if I’m bored, it might backfire and I’d be clicking on “Should Crooked Hil and Obummer be allowed to bring guns to their cage match when they’re sentenced to the Uranium Prison in Kenya?” just to hurt my own eyes…) ---
