That's actually the ONLY place this discussion should be posted, unless you have an exi-freedom II tucked away somewhere. This duplicitously mislabeled thread is about culture in general (as opposed to gun culture) about as much as a debate about abortion is about medicine in general - it ain't! It has been agreed, on this list, to conduct all discussion on this particular issue on the list specifically designed for it; why can't you progun issue extremists control your urges at least enough to keep your word on such an agreement? Is your obsession/compulsion to discuss your mental monorail topic truly beyond your conscious volitional control?
