    I already provided a pretty extensive list above of things we do here. At some point the impetus is on the users as well, especially when it comes to not engaging the assholes. If they don't have an audience their words are meaningless.

    the line was drawn for pedo's ONLY BECAUSE it is likely to be a criminal violation and damo wants to avoid any potential legal issues.

    that is not censorship, rather, it is prudently keeping JPP within the law.

    that you would compare child sex speech to racism is truly mind boggling.

    Why would you quit just because we created a forum for gun stuff? That makes no sense.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
    - -- The Buddha

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
    - -- Aristotle

    Please don't use vulgar language; because a lot of people find it objectionable.

    damo in case you missed the last 2-3 days, some people are reallly mad that all the gun threads are now in a very easy to find, highly trafficked location, and that the gun threads from both general politics and off topic will now be seen by more people. We lost legion troll over it. Jarod was kinda peeved too, and then bijou and haiku have cried about it for some unknown reason.

    Props to you for being able to get the troll to leave the board, if true. This is something I must see to believe and I think he'll be back shortly. However if he really is gone then the guns forum is one of the best things you've ever done on this site.
