Request to moderators on metastatis of Gun threads
Could we limit it to one gun thread please?

Or else ban the trolls who decided this was a gun rights board?

2. Don't get all worried about it.
We are not Republicans. We support freedom of speech.

4. Alas...
Once the gun nuts get a bit of nonsense, no matter how rancid and foul, they wallow in it like dogs.

Hence, multiple threads about Mary Rosh's musiongs in crazy Bill Buckley's rag....

6. if you don't want to participate in the discussion skip the thread
its easy. you are actually free to limit your perusal to topics that intrest you. gun rights are a legitimate political issue. if you want more ensorship and restrictions on discussions go to free republic.

besides its skinner's site and he gets to decide the rules.

7. Thank you for the helpful suggestion.
I am aware of your suggested technique. I had just awaken, was having my first cup of coffee, and saw two straight pages of gun threads in GD. This led me to labor under a misapprehension which has now been corrected.

I appreciate your help.
