It's threads like these that remind me why I say that.
Write the book, pax.

Teach your children.
Lock up the guns you are not using.
If your kid doesn't know enough to secure a gun that is lying around the house before other kids find it, do they really know about guns?

The HVAC guys went up into the attic and came back down saying, "do you know there's a pile of guns up there?" Nope, she didn't know.
You did condemn the ar-15 as being too scary a gun for children while other guns would be fine. Do you blame people for calling them like they see them?The fact that just by stating that I wasn't too fond of the actions depicted in the video resulted in five pages of questioning my rationale, not to mention some thinly-veiled insults and a few people comparing me to their favorite anti-gun activist sealed the deal, though.
We've probably all had a thread we started not go the way we hoped, you take your licks and learn something from it. It wouldn't be much of a forum if the conversation was your way or not at all.It's also sort of nice that I reported my own post requesting that this thread be closed, but it seems that went largely ignored, with not even a single PM in response.
It seems like the THR was quite civil and welcoming even if they disagreed with you. You came to a strongly pro-gun community and judged a gun based on its appearnce. You'll hear some people tell you why thats wrong. And I don't believe any of them called you an idiot or any other names in doing it.This place is full of too many idiots for it to be worth my while. Not all of you are bad. Some people did a heck of a job welcoming me but largely, this thread alone is enough to turn me away from the rest of the community.
Maybe I've just got thin skin but voicing an opinion and asking what others thought isn't a request for a one-sided pissing match. And I'm justified in saying that it was indeed one-sided, since I've only posted here, and on page one.
shows how such efforts can and will be used against us.I pointed out that I'm a little uneasy with the concept of letting children handle weapons, designed to kill.
