Hello?
Is anybody here? Or are you all just coming back from the NRA Annual Meeting?

Maybe that explains the lack of activism in this group. I was wondering why there were so few posts. I'll go to the other group.

(12,041 posts)I assume you must be a member of the Republican Party, the American Family Association, the Tea Party, NAMBLA, and all kinds of other far right groups as well. After all if you believe the way to change things is from within far-right groups like the NRA then you must be a member of several far right groups yourself, correct?

Bjorn Against
(12,041 posts)I am tolerant of different points of view as long as people don't advocate things that harm other people, unfortunately a huge number the NRA shit bags are pushing policies which result in thousands of death so I am not going to respect their reprehensible positions, and I sure as hell am not going to be sending them membership dues as you seem to be suggesting we should do.

What do you expect if you come here & make unkind remarks? a welcome wagon?
Adversaries sometimes think me an ego head with 'jimmy the ONE', but I don't get upset since it does imply that, I simply explain it's an English naval term. You reap what you sow.
There's a guy on rkba who goes by 'straw man' - on a gun board!! what, we should just let him get a free pass without explanation?
So here's your chance to explain what 'dumb cat' signifies.
Is it that you have an inferiority complex? a speaking difficulty? based on some esoteric figure from some esoteric gotham city or planet krypton? a star wars character or harry potterish?
