Rules are only meaningful if someone is willing and able to enforce them. This has been demonstrated repeatedly throughout recent history.
Do you imagine that giving people less to lose will make them behave better?
Relax. I was teasing you. Don't be so serious.
As for the rest, it seems like politics. Isn't that forbidden here? I'm not a "liberal" under any meaningful definition, so your gloating is misplaced.
While not untrue, that's missing the point. It usually either means "I feel that I/my demographic has no voice in my own country," which is what led to current events, or it means "I strenuously disagree with actions my country is taking," such as certain actions the USA has taken in Central...
We're going to have to agree to disagree on this one. I've done a LOT of introspection and soul searching and reading (I know it's unfashionable!) over the past few years to come to the conclusions I have. Not so long ago I was making exactly the argument you are. That's not to say that I'm...
Blocking forum posters is an act of cowardice. :-P
I expected that. But I'm not interested in pretending to be someone I'm not. I can be civil, but there's no point in being here if I'm not going to express me opinions on things (within the rules). That's what forums are for.
I didn't...
This is a moral disagreement we have. I don't believe that killing to protect property is a moral act. You do. It was unhelpful for me to claim that you lust for blood, but I do reject your moral code as invalid.
Is this a Republican site? That's not what the rules say!
I'm pro-gun. And I do lean left I suppose, but in the sense that I prioritize people over corporate profits not in the sense that I'm going to run out and vote for Biden. That's not left. I reject the Republicans and Democrats as part...
I know that a lot of people are dismissing the pandemic and think social distancing is foolish. I'm not here to argue about that. I am curious whether any shops or tabletop FFLs are offering transfers while respecting social distancing? I'm looking to get an AR lower soon, but I also don't want...
I am 100% in earnest and not trolling. I did the trolling thing when I was younger. It was kind of funny, but ultimately pointless. Politics is too serious to be a jerk about.
We're good then.
It is, but have you noticed that some really interesting current events have popped up recently? Maybe it's reasonable to discuss those too!
What rules have I broken?
Purple text me all you like, but that's honestly part of the motivation. Frankly, I don't care for the Republicans or the...
That's untrue. About a quarter of those were meant to be low income housing. The rest were to be luxury apartments for PMCs. The building was unfinished and no actual apartments were burned.
I'm here to talk about guns. Politics are also important to me, so that's definitely something I'll be posting about too. If "TRUMP GOOD" is a prerequisite to post on INGO I'd appreciate people letting me know, since that's definitely not my opinion. The rules claim that this is an inclusive...
Hi, all. I'm a native Hoosier who believes that an armed populace is important, but doesn't toe either side of the Red/Blue culture war party line. I used to lurk here, but stopped when I started finding the political environment unacceptable. After rejecting the necessity of personal firearm...
He would delight in that. Let's not forget that he quoted Headley, saying "when the looting starts, the shooting starts." Of course Trumo pretended ignorance later, which makes me think Miller might have been involved in the tweet since he's so passionate about white supremacy and has Trump's...
It's more complicated than that. The OK sign thing began as a chan joke, but then actual racists started flashing it in photos. Whether they were intending to use it "ironically" or not, that racists were using the OK sign made it a racist sign in actuality.
This is a weird thread. While I believe that neither Biden nor Trump should be anywhere near the Oval Office, with respect to senility they're both obviously relatively equal, which is to say that they're both working with skulls full of rotting oatmeal.
It would be nice to see a candidate who...
