6. Exactly.
And what would be the point? How would my "participation" change or affect anything at all?

With the dozens of forums and groups we have to choose from here, I elect to participate in those which inform and provide useful, actionable ideas in my areas of interest. I'm not going to waste my time reading or participating in futile arguments.

13. I do
some , but refuse to make any more attempts to "discuss" anything on the guns forum, that is not any sort of discussion it is a pileup of anti gunners.... nothing is really discussed,it is just stated as fact regardless of truth... waste of time on both sides.... No one is going to change any minds on either side...

16. POGO
<http://www.pogo.org/>

Went to one of those places just today, told I was goofy. Considering other targets of this particular criticism by this individual? I'm honored!
