PP, for all of the good work that it it has done, has done nothing more than Alinsky anyone here who dares not to worship with full fealty at the altar of St. Jeff.
Anyone who might just have something that canonically that they aren't onboard with is instantly swarmed by the faithful, abused by the leadership and marginalized as being a Fudd or worse. It's the classic identify, attack and paralyze tactic and you guys need to be afraid that it's being used against other gun owners.
It is absolutely destroying the very independence of thought that this community was always intended to represent.
Thank you, Norton. It's the snide, pompous, condescending comments and unnecessary bickering that drives me away from MDS for extended periods of time. And I'm sure it discourages others from participating in what should be a welcoming forum for gun enthusiasts. Here's to a friendlier, less antogonistic MDS!
I gotta be honest, I'm surprised that he offered as much info as he did. Usually people get banned and we are unaware. As frequent a poster as Rack was, his presence will be missed and noticed. Because he is who he is, I kind of appreciate a heads up about what is going on.Norton, I didn't like your first post. You last post was even worse. Sounds like you are butt hurt and could use a little self imposed ban.
Just the tip/balls deep... 6 in one, half dozen the otherSo my internet size is the same as real life for me. Crap!

This is nuts. So thankful for Jeff and PP out there fighting. I mean no malice when I say Katie told someone to go F themselves and she was coddled and not banned. Why should Jeff or anyone else not be giving more latitude. But hey, it's your website. I just think rules should be applied equally across the board.
The fundamental problem with the internet is that people somehow think that their dick size on the internet actually counts for anything. Its doesn't. Your dick size on the internet and $2.79 wont even get you a cup of coffee. Your dick size on the internet is zero, you can stop measuring it.
I'm out
no great loss when you average less than 1 post per month and 5% of your posts are about leaving.

I haven't read this whole thread, as I've been at the range. But I got a warning, so I wasn't coddled. It was also the first infraction I had ever had, it wasn't without provocation, and the other parties and I spoke and sorted it out. I've kept it clean and civil since. I imagine if I had continued in that manner, I would have gone to camp. Instead I finally got some sleep after well over 24 hours up, and cooled off.
Does this thread a precedent for everyone going forward that is banned? Seems to be cathartic.
Nah, just a reminder. When one gets extremely passionate or motivated, treat others as you would want to be treated.
We have all been there, and got a little too excited about something. The only thing that was different, the circumstance(s) that got us to that place.
The MDS rule has always been: Post on here, as if your children or family member were going to read your posts.

This is the part i dont understand but its ok to purposely push the buttons and add fuel when they know it works but that's ok ! It's not name calling but its being a instigating piss ant . As it's has been said already if you do not like what your reading go to the next thread. Im sorry Norton the ruling seems to be one sided button pushing guy name calling guy both are vested my 2 cents.And the ones that are calling sending PM's and complaining to Norton must have had their lunch taken from them everyday at schoolNo. It has nothing to do with freedom of speech and everything to do with stop being a passive aggressive, snide commenting ass.

Even after a one week vacation, within less than a couple of hours, the passive aggressive ******** starts back up. His nasty sniping infects nearly corner of every conversation here, and we know for a fact that he incites the faithful to follow suit.
On the other hand, we have the panty waisted people who simply don't like Jeff and they spend their entire lives scouring every punctuation mark of the PP, reporting posts and trying to use us as their enforcers for their personal problems. You're a bunch of asses too and just as big a part of the problem.
For those of you that are "OMG Jeff is gone, I'm gone too....." See ya. You're proving my point.
