as it seems to me to be poor form but I have noticed that there is a fixation with us in "the other group" as they refer to the GCRA. So many of the regulars have been banned that it just eats at their soul to not be able to disrupt here.

Any comment about unsuitable behavior of some gun enthusiasts is embraced as a personal affront by ALL of them. I recently posted about a select group of gun owners in a specific economically depressed area who appear to use gun ownership to bolster a feeling of masculinity. They immediately claimed that I insulted every gun owner in the country.

They are such delicate flowers.
