If you would prefer that we start going strictly by the rules please feel free to report the thread. I'm sure a lot of people would really enjoy us moving every non-topic post / thread to foo.

I can assure you, there have been plenty of posts in addiction that have not interested me in the least. I somehow manage to ignore them.

Sure we go off topic on this thread but talking about guns is political and therefor not appropriate. It no different than talking about pro life issues.

You can't really debate issues in R&R anyway--the people there are too weird.

How exactly is me saying that I own a gun and I like to shoot targets political?

LowCel's pointer on ignoring stuff that doesn't interest you should be taken to heart by many people on this site.

I think that LowCel's pro gun bias is causing him to act inappropriately.

v70cat, I apologize if my attempt at humor led to another straw being piled on a hot button. I always figure Addiction is good for a laugh, so I try to keep it light, even in my talk of China and ethics. P&R seems very preachy to me, and this seems very tongue in cheek, but if that distinction was not made, I apologize.

For the most part, it is a small circle that frequently posts in the Addictions, and I barged my way in, to a certain extent. I figure it is a bunch of folks sitting around a coffee table having a stream of consciousness oral dumping. It is all for fun.

Nope, I got what you were doing. I just responded with a firearm pics as advice. I was playing a long, with the willful intent to annoy the anti gun crowd here. I think I succeeded.
