First you claimed there was no ban on federal funding for gun research. Now you claim you support that ban. You are supporting a corporate lobby's efforts to suppress information because you share their goals of suppressing knowledge. That is a shameful, anti-democratic and illiberal position.

There is federal funding on ethics, by the way: NEH funds philosophy and NIH funds medical ethics. If I did a funding search I'm sure I could find more sources.

Agreed. And a good question... geckosfeet Jul 2013 #107
Well, there you go. Makes sense. rrneck Jul 2013 #111
Would you support the banning of the extremists on the other side, as they are on the pro-gun side? beevul Jun 2013 #14
This group is about RKBA and 2A Starboard Tack Jun 2013 #16

You post completely penetrated that poster's deception, Eleanors38 Jul 2013 #20
It's not a deception BainsBane Jul 2013 #27
So what does abolishing the 2A gain us? hack89 Jul 2013 #34
I don't actually support repeal BainsBane Jul 2013 #39
Reasonable assumption on your part. nt hack89 Jul 2013 #50
You simultaneous disavowal of being a gun prohibitionist Eleanors38 Jul 2013 #36
If you support UBG BainsBane Jul 2013 #38
Pure projection & more false accusations. Eleanors38 Jul 2013 #71
Okay, I'm wrong BainsBane Jul 2013 #75
I posted elsewhere that I support this (in a thread laudatory of you!). Eleanors38 Jul 2013 #114
Great. Did you sent your letters to congress? BainsBane Jul 2013 #117
I will choose my own method of communicating to Congress Eleanors38 Jul 2013 #134
That system makes it very easy BainsBane Jul 2013 #136

The trick is to keep one of them separate from the others. Eleanors38 Jul 2013 #112
Hopefully that one is the gun BainsBane Jul 2013 #120
So now you're prosecuting thought crimes? BainsBane Jul 2013 #25
Yeah, you're right. beevul Jul 2013 #32
I don't block anyone from anywhere BainsBane Jul 2013 #41
"So now you're imposing collective guilt?" Uh... Might wanna watch what you accuse: Decoy of Fenris Jul 2013 #42
and? BainsBane Jul 2013 #43
Just pointing out your hypocrisy. Decoy of Fenris Jul 2013 #45
fair enough BainsBane Jul 2013 #47
Thank you. As always, you have my grudging respect and admiration. Decoy of Fenris Jul 2013 #48
likewise. BainsBane Jul 2013 #49
Guilt by association would have been the more accurate term. BainsBane Jul 2013 #44
Ah, yes, that it would. I'd have no problem with that. :) Decoy of Fenris Jul 2013 #46

Um, yeah. rrneck Jul 2013 #94
If you want me to "not run into a thread full steam" BainsBane Jul 2013 #97
Nobody was gossiping about you. rrneck Jul 2013 #99
When someone reproduces my post BainsBane Jul 2013 #101
You don't seem to understand rrneck Jul 2013 #110
You post dismisses the concerns of gun control proponents BainsBane Jul 2013 #121
Boilerplate. Have you given it any actual thought rrneck Jul 2013 #122
You ask for proof BainsBane Jul 2013 #130

NIJ has been recieving funding as has NSF gejohnston Jul 2013 #142
Funny, because federal law specifically prohibits NIH from funding research BainsBane Jul 2013 #143
I didn't say NIH, I said NIJ gejohnston Jul 2013 #145
NIH is the largest federal funder BainsBane Jul 2013 #148
By the way BainsBane Jul 2013 #144
ALL federal funding contains a provision that the money cannot be used to lobby or promote political gejohnston Jul 2013 #146
exactly BainsBane Jul 2013 #149
not the same thing. gejohnston Jul 2013 #152
So which is it? BainsBane Jul 2013 #153
I support the ban on lobbying, not research. gejohnston Jul 2013 #154
So you would support lifting the ban on research? BainsBane Jul 2013 #155
illegal to conduct research geared toward a political agenda, ANY political agenda. gejohnston Jul 2013 #158
So the answer is no BainsBane Jul 2013 #161
You obviously did not read anything I said gejohnston Jul 2013 #164
You obviously did not read the APA article BainsBane Jul 2013 #168
