Norton,
Has all the recent bans been from the National and State 2A forums? Along with a few Water Cooler posts? The LE ones are nuclear as it is.
Seems emotions get elevated in the 2A Forums and it is to be expected because of all the infringements that are going on.
Some members leave for a while because of this and only stick with actual firearm, knife, and non 2A postings.
I know that if I put a statement in the 2A Forums, I need to be prepared to be called out, flamed, and criticized. It is part of making and defending your statement. Name calling or degrading someone is not the way to do it, from both sides of the argument. If you can't defend the argument civilly and only do a drive-by, maybe the individual needs to rethink their stance.
Unfortunately, in MD we are pushing water uphill. While some are still hunting at the lake down below, the ones caring the buckets of water uphill are getting frustrated that no one else but the bucket carriers can see the forest fire at the top of the hill.
I wouldn't want your job as I tend to be biased on what I can see happening, and I appreciate the work that you do for the forum. A lot of the senior members(early join date, not post count) have moved on, and stay away from most 2A discussions because it de-evolves after a period of time.
Thanks for the work you do.
