Return of politics to this forum

To All:
Upon further review by the moderators and administrator, the decision has been made to reinstate political comments in the Second Amendment Forum.
Let me make it perfectly clear that the content rules must be followed. They are listed below.
Due to the nature of political discussion, tempers can become heated and words are used before they are carefully considered. Members are expected to act like adults and police themselves. No name-calling of other members. Even Snowflake. Moderators have been instructed to strictly enforce this rule.
This is a club—a family, as some of you have said—and insulting other members of your family on a forum that is open for the world to see, will no longer be tolerated.
Let's be respectful of one another.

CONTENT RULES
These forums are here to provide members with a place to discuss matters relating to firearms, including their experiences with various products, the posting of questions and answers, and personal opinions on gun-related topics. There are forums for general firearm topics, personal defense and hunting. In addition, there is a forum dedicated to politics and Clubhouse, which is open for all subjects. Members should place their posts in the appropriate thread and forum.
A lively discussion is welcome here but there are a few rules we require members to follow:
Spam will not be tolerated. Forum members are allowed to personally endorse products but only if you are not associated with the product or its manufacturer in any way. People in the industry are invited to join in the discussions and to become members but are not allowed to hype their company’s products.
Keep it clean. These forums are open to everyone and are here to promote the shooting sports and the responsibilities of gun ownership. By everyone, we mean the whole family including women and children. If you would not say something in front of a 12 year old or their mom or grandmother, then don't say it here. Please avoid trying to override the profanity filter with clever abbreviations.
Second Amendment/Political forum. This is the place for the discussion of politics, including firearms legislation and regulation. A lively discussion of politics is encouraged, but comments should be carefully considered before hitting the "Reply to Thread" button. And please: no name-calling of other members. That is one of the quickest ways to get banned from the forum.
Religion. This is not the place to preach or to try to convert someone to your church or religion. You can say what you believe but please do not try to start a debate comparing one religion to another.
Illegal activity. It goes without saying that members of this forum should be aware of federal gun laws and those in their state and local jurisdiction. Make sure that all of your comments and suggestions fall within the law. Posts that encourage violation of gun or hunting regulations could get us all in serious trouble.
Trolling and flaming. If you come to our forums to start fights, insult people, gore sacred cows and in general, start trouble, expect to be banned. We enjoy lively and spirited discussion but Trolls are the lowest form of online life and will be dealt with in short order.

It feels good to be back.

Now to see if I wanna comment on a couple topics, it is tempting. :tooth:

Carry a 25 if it makes you feel good, but do not ever load it. If you load it, you may shoot it. If you shoot it, you may hit somebody, and if you hit somebody – and he finds out about it – he may be very angry with you. --Jeff Cooper
Now the monkey's on our back to keep it open. BTW guys, just thought I'd let you know, he said no goring of sacred cows. The .270 Win. is my sacred cow.

BTW Conchokid, thank you and the Mods for reconsidering. The political forum allowed me and others to vent about world events and various situations. I was about to burst because I really didn't have a vent pipe. If I look like I'm getting out of hand just slap me across the head real good and I'll get my memory back. You being a Texan knows what an East Texas Hearing Aid is I'm sure. A 2x4,:rotflmao::rotflmao::rotflmao:

Yep. Pretty much.
Tip of the hat. You played that most excellently.

I think it was decided to make a clean break, and the previously locked threads (which brought us to where we were), would remain locked.
Unless I completely misunderstood, that's how it is.

People are always going to disagree. If this weren't here, I would have to argue with Gene over bullet twist yet one more time. I don't think I am up to that again!

That's the most beneficial part of this. Sometimes from people we don't expect to learn from. I learn things from all, even Alpha. Sometimes he will say something I initially think is off the wall and in the Libtard Tank but then see that's not total BS. So we do get a great benefit here. I'm glad it's back.

I've been partially staying out of the section recently just because I'm so HOPPING MAD over what's going on right now that distance is better for my blood pressure!
