to disrupt this safe haven forum for the sheer the hell of it.

The poster above is a Gungeon regular who has spent the vast majority of his DU career posting pro-NRA talking points and gun lobby bilge all over DU; which is fine, as he has apparently never crossed enough lines as of yet to face a PPR. Great!

But note he cannot stay out of this recently created forum with its SOP: the urge & temptation to troll and disrupt even here - perhaps especially here - is simply too much: he cannot limit it to the GCRKBA forum, so he snarks and spews and trolls here.

It will continue to happen as long as we don't have some kind of Host authority to put a stop to it, as the "RKBA enthusiasts" are not interested in "good faith" or playing by any kind of decent rules: they simply wish to pimp for and spew out pro-gun lobby talking points and memes, everyone and everything and every other notion of decorum & etc. be damned.

I know it's being worked on; the sooner it's resolved the better.
