the 2 that come to mind quickly are the disc about the newyork fire fighters protesting, and someone asking about .223/6mm for deer hunting.

El-Kabong -

You are well named. At least the "bong" part.

take another hit and go back to [sleep]

it never ceases to amaze me as to why people feel the need to some to this site to inform the site that the site is irrelevant and will soon die off.

The one about the NYFD protesting was posted by our very own moderator Waverunner. The title of the post is "Level 4 Mobilization in NYC!!"

It had been tacked at the top of the forum, but I imagine was untacked because the event to which it referred is over. You can view it here, on page four of the general forum: [url]http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?id=67291[/url]

As for the thread about .223/6mm for deer hunting, is it this one in the [b]Hunting[/b] forum: [url]http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?id=67139[/url]? It was probably moved there because it's about [b]hunting[/b].

They're not gone.  No "mod stripping" has taken place.  Here they are:  [url]http://ar15.com/forums/topic.html?id=66737[/url] and [url]http://ar15.com/forums/topic.html?id=67139[/url]

What is up with this incessant mod bashing?  Before you assume that a thread has been removed, why don't you try the SEARCH option?  Sheesh!  [:(!]

I just hate censorship. Hate it. Hate it. Sorry.

OK, let's explore that thought.

Let's say I come into YOUR home, and use every imaginable kind of foul language to you and your(presumably) wife. I call her a slut and a whore.

I scream at your (presumably) kids, and I show them pics of mutilated bodies.

I tell them their parents hate them, and that they are evil, rotten people who kill puppies just for kicks..

Lastly, I stand outside your house for days, holing a sign that says "El Kabong is a child molestor."

Question: Would you "censor" me???

You BET you would.And you would be RIGHT to do so. Free speech is NOT a caveat for rude behavior IN SOMEONE ELSES HOUSE. Or ANYWHERE else, for that matter.

Right now, you are in someone elses "house." THEIR rules apply. They have EVERY right to censor you.

Your ability to fight that is singular - LEAVE the site, if you find it so VERY "offensive." But no, like many others, you just keep whining on about "censorshiop." Put your money where your mouth is - LEAVE. Otherwise, don't expect ANYONE to take your whining seriously. Its commonly referred to as "bitching" and ain't worth the bad breath used to speak it.

This has all been discussed ad nauseum. If you still don't "get" it, its SOLELY because you don't WANT to get it, and you want to have the WHOLE WORLD run YOUR way - even OTHER peoples "homes."

If fact, you are WORSE than that. Yours is a double standard. You want to control everything that goes on in your house, but you don't allow others to control what goes on in THEIR house. You paint others, who do the same thing you do, as "censors." Physician, heal thyself.

If you could bottle and sell the hypocrisy by the gallon, you would be a VERY rich man.


Feel free to respond, but there is NOTHING more to say to you in this matter.

garandman out.

Actually, they DID sign a contract. They agree to abide by the Code of Conduct BEFORE they would be allowed an account here.

When they REPEATEDLY violate it, they get their account closed.

What do they do then??

They create a new account, and AGAIN agree to the Code of Conduct, apparently SOLELY for the purpose of YET AGAIN breaking their word and violating it.

Not to overdramatize, but it is THIS mentality, the "Everything must be structured to suit me" attitude, that is what is wrong with America, no, the WHOLE world today. That, and the "I'll break my OWN word if it suits me" attitude.

As far as your solution of shooting them at dawn, I'm TRYING to think of reasons that would be a bad idea. Not coming up with any.

A little help here??? [}:D]

In the posts that i made that were removed i did not violate our contract in any way..
I did make a statement that would agitate many in some ways.
I accused the removal of the fire fighters from the wtc and the protest afterwards of being motivated by money. Both the union and the city were slammed in my post for profiteering.
I was quoted and accused of being a union slob and a scab. I dont mind that at all we all have our opinions.
What really upset me was the mods removing posts with out a reason stated.
I was not vulgar or x rated just controversial

paterpk -

Read the Code of Conduct, the part about the "pissing matches."

Its a judgment call, no doubt.

But in the greater scheme of things, ONCE opinions have been stated, and RESTATED, it is MORE important that we MAINTAIN OUR UNITY AS GUN OWNERS than that a pissing match be carried out ad infinitum.

E-mail exists to finish any such discussions. No need to clutter this forum with those types of personal matters.

Further, you have the opportunity to start a NEW thread, to refine and clarify your position.



Just as ANY homeowner would ask two people to "take it outside" the owners of this site have enlisted people (mods) to enforce just such rules.



Anywho, that's my take.

That USED to be policy, and something I ALWAYS did as a mod.

I'll agree - that NEEDS to be done.
