Politcs, gun control and religeon
I wish this forum had a separate section for politics, religion, and gun control.
I really have learned a lot on this forum and enjoy many of the threads, but some topics just seem to be a place for angry people to vent, to troll, to attack and to trap.
I have learned about reloading, shotguns, sights and many other things just by reading. I enjoy seeing the help that people offer each other. I liked reading the threads that show what it is like to be a rig worker, it is interesting.
The other stuff not so much.

Ha ha- funny, hadn't thought of that. I told myself whatever people wrote, I wouldn't reply and get drawn into a fight, but your comment made me laugh - thanks & all the best!

It's unfortunate that you have to click on the threads you aren't interested in.

I'm watching for that one !
A politically religious gun control thread . I will definitely be on the
Watch for that one .. I hope an orthodox liberal anti doesn't start it .
Pax Vobiscum
Your to be congratulated , it's not often a person with 20 posts shows
So much concern about the content on here . It's people who show that kind
Concern who become longstanding valuable quality members .
And really these topical threads generally don't go anywhere .

Politics, Religion and Wives. Discussions that will get you into trouble in a hurry.

Perhaps a thread on mouse control is in order. Never let your mouse be pointed at something you don't want to click on.
But yeah, I haven't noticed any threads on Justin Trudeau labelled "Shotgun reloading." yet. Maybe I'll start one. Just cause.

I wish some of our members would simply frequent forums set up specifically for politics and religion. Who the %$#@ cares about your opinion of Obamacare? This is a CANADIAN OUTDOORS FORUM. Now gun control does fit here, IMHO.

I care
But that's what I'm like , caring ,giving ,helpful ,
Sorry for the derail . Oh ya and cynical , the one thing I learnt
On here ,is that there are some very weird twisted minds out there in
AO land , whose pot stirring abilities reach psychopathic proportion .
Most of those sincere ,for the betterment of the forum OP s usually end up
Being a crock .....and finish in being world war XXXXXXVIIII .
I am not suggesting for a minute , that this is the case ,Now
