Bramble

This is a public forum & people express their views & I do the same. I just made some obsevations & asked questions that will make people think for themselves. If that makes you uncomfortable, them you need to find a resolution.

Regarding the recent "humour" issue that you talk about - please retrace the thread & you will see that my first response was a moderate one & I was the third person to make a dissenting comment after 2 other members. I put my foot down only after the subject got more blatent & some people started justifying a ridiculous position. My CV can be deduced from various posts I have made. Whether you find it credible or not matters not to me. It is not relevent who says it, the principle is the issue and that does not change.

There are many people on this forum & others who have strong views & voice them. If a post indicated unsafe reloading recommendations, I would speak up. If a post sounded rude & offensive to others, I might speak up. If a post was out right wrong in principle, I would speak up. My view is that this forum is a great place with great people. The odd person sometimes does something stupid (that might include me some day).

By the way, I get PMs from people supporting my views. I have also got to know a few people through this forum who have other interests apart from fine guns & hunting.

On the subject of race, I hope people take a moment to think of the consequences if intolerant views in this site get into the public domain & attract unfavourable publicity! What is the agenda of this forum? Is it to propagate intolerant & prejudiced values? I know that I am not alone in my views.

Merry Christmas.
