Response to DonP (Reply #8)

I don't think this OP meets the group's SOP Kaleva Jan 2014 #1
. Eleanors38 Jan 2014 #2
I already gave up on that exception Duckhunter935 Jan 2014 #3
My observation has been pro-2A folks have refrained Eleanors38 Jan 2014 #5
yes, and based on their alerting of GD gun threads, it appears they don't want guns spoken of there CreekDog Jan 2014 #21
When an incident involves the death of a child, expect to see a lot of threads in GD about it. NYC_SKP Jan 2014 #4
Of course. Most of the people shot don't matter to them. Lizzie Poppet Jan 2014 #10
Newtown got far more coverage than would have been had for non-white victims. NYC_SKP Jan 2014 #14
so you are requesting more gun threads so that nonwhite victims are covered more? CreekDog Jan 2014 #22
YAY!!! I was actually just wondering if you have as many years in the City as me. NYC_SKP Jan 2014 #24
interesting. are you sure you were in San Francisco then? CreekDog Jan 2014 #36
I remember those days like it was yesterday, like the world was coming to an end. NYC_SKP Jan 2014 #37
so you're saying the RKBA group is less racist than the rest of DU? CreekDog Jan 2014 #27
My observation is that the GD Hosts have sort of averaged out to the petronius Jan 2014 #6
While I have hosted other forums but not GD, I could see in the Host's forum that it wasn't easy Kaleva Jan 2014 #11
I know that the clutter and time that might be wasted trashing threads is petronius Jan 2014 #13
Guns kill chillins too ya know. ileus Jan 2014 #7
Perhaps we should help? DonP Jan 2014 #8

Well, since another member has decided to cross post replies, I'm self deleting the above. NYC_SKP Jan 2014 #16
why did you delete this? i don't understand. i didn't see anything offensive in this: CreekDog Jan 2014 #23
Dedicated to you: NYC_SKP Jan 2014 #26
why won't you answer why it is despite liking guns so much, you don't want them discussed in GD? CreekDog Jan 2014 #28
The pro gun rights side is so far ahead I'm embarrassed for you, CD! NYC_SKP Jan 2014 #29
Dodging the question will just make me more sure that I'm right CreekDog Jan 2014 #30
Talk to Skinner. When the SOP changes, we'll talk gun rights in GD, mkay? For now, Let's all chant NYC_SKP Jan 2014 #31
Skinner can't tell me why you and other gungeoners don't want guns discussed in GD CreekDog Jan 2014 #32
For me, it's because GD gun threads invariably descend into utter asshattery. Lizzie Poppet Jan 2014 #38
There is far more asshattery here in the gungeon than there is in GD Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #39
We'll have to agree to disagree on that one. Lizzie Poppet Jan 2014 #40
The gungeon is viewed as a toxic cesspool by much of DU Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #41
Changes nothing. Lizzie Poppet Jan 2014 #42
You are hardly innocent of the divisiveness you condemn from others Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #43
Plenty of pot.kettle.black to go around, then. Lizzie Poppet Jan 2014 #44
My point is you act as a hall monitor crusading against divisiveness while being divisive yourself Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #46
You're "tired" of a strawman. Lizzie Poppet Jan 2014 #49
So in a single post you claim you are not divisive and then scream "DON'T OPEN MY FUCKING POSTS" Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #50
Priceless. Lizzie Poppet Jan 2014 #51
And you prove my point once again Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #52
Okay, I've obviously been a bit slow on the uptake this morning. Lizzie Poppet Jan 2014 #53
Yet another personal attack from you Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #55
And yet, here you are ...... oldhippie Jan 2014 #45
Sometimes bullshit needs to be challenged even if that means walking into a toxic cesspool Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #47
I heartily agree ..... oldhippie Jan 2014 #48
+1 CreekDog Jan 2014 #60
May I ask your opinion... sarisataka Jan 2014 #57
I have alerted on posts like the ones you mentioned before Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #58
Fair enough... sarisataka Jan 2014 #59
If there were actual _discussions_, I'd urge Skinner to change the policy. Lizzie Poppet Jan 2014 #56
The ban on gun threads in GD is a pathetic joke. Lizzie Poppet Jan 2014 #9
No change in the GD SOP. oneshooter Jan 2014 #12
You sound bitterly disappointed that such discussions will be allowed CreekDog Jan 2014 #17
Still no change in the GD SOP. n/t oneshooter Jan 2014 #18
However, Skinner has given direction for GD and Gun posts CreekDog Jan 2014 #19
The hosts have ignored the SOP till now, why not. n/t oneshooter Jan 2014 #20
Just looked. oneshooter Jan 2014 #54
You sound bitterly late to the discussion! Eleanors38 Jan 2014 #33
so you obviously like gun posts, you just don't like them in GD where gun control is popular CreekDog Jan 2014 #25
There you are again with that peculiar interest in me. Eleanors38 Jan 2014 #34
it isn't peculiar. it's about why you want us in GD to shut up about guns CreekDog Jan 2014 #35
