I might have overlooked Bob Blaylock ’s post if I hadn’t already issued a mod note (quoting Bob Blaylock ) about many other insulting posts in that thread:
To be clear, all advocates of any gun control, without exception, fall into two categories…
[ol][li]Those who are willfully on the side of tyrants and criminals, and who wish to disarm the general population in order to make them easier prey for the tyrants and criminals. They may claim that they support such laws for the sake of public safety, but they are flat-out lying when they make such claims. They know very well that gun control laws, at best, do nothing to promote public safety, and in fact, tend to make the public less safe.[/li]
…or…
[li]Those who are ignorant and gullible, and who believe the lies told by the first group.[/ol][/li]
It is well worth noting that those who most support gun control laws, and who claim to do so in the name of “fighting crime”, are generally the same people who most strongly oppose any genuine efforts to fight crime, such as tougher sentences for genuine violent criminals.
I could quote the rest of this post and about half the posts that came after it as examples of rules violations. Instead I will say one more time that this isn’t the forum for ranting and raving and insulting people. If you want to start a Pit thread, have at it. But if you want to call people liars and fools and dopes and killers, you can’t do it in this forum. I will be handing out warnings to people who “forget” this rule.
