This is the true America.

People that use a pseudo name seem for the most part to be the ones that want to escalate the discussion, hiding behind the supposed anonymity that brings with it. This forum isn’t so bad but the tweeters and FB’ers seem to really rely on that to be mean and insulting.

Excellent thought. I'll take the challenge and change my user name to DavidMcMillan I am currently deeply concerned with the lack of honesty in our society, and I am trying to eliminate any opportunity of misleading comments I make.

Name change request just sent.

I have no issue being friends, either personal or on social media, with folks that disagree with me on topics the OP listed, such as medical marijuana, tattoos, etc...hell, I'm even friends with folks that shoot 6.5 Creedmoor's ...but its harder for me to deal with folks that support people/politicians that would undo America in an instant, be it our "current" country or our country circa 1900, just for power and greed...I feel that probably 98% of politicians, celebrities, etc, on BOTH sides of the political aisle, could give a crap less about us normal folks, but some want support on topics that I will never agree with, no matter what percentage of the citizenry claims its OK...

I shoot a 6.5 and 6 Creedmoor can I be your friend. Good point, but that is the way that things are if you don't agreed with my point of view I will demonize you or call you a bigot and racist so I can shut you up. Strait from the left play book.

I try to start any discussion in a friendly manner but if the other party wishes to get contentious, I have no problem following their lead while staying within forum rules.

99.9% of them wouldn’t have the balls/ovaries to say what they do face to face.
I lol at the backdoor badasses on those social media outlets that sit in mommy’s basement in their jammy’s.

I don't use my real name for PERSEC purposes, but pretty much everyone "in the know" knows who I really am. It's not like I hide it from the people on OSA that really matter. I'll leave it up to each of you as to whether you matter or not!

But feeding trolls can be fun . . .

Sometimes.

Yeah, but trolling trolls is where it's really at!

I dunno what PERSEC is but that's my reason too!

Sometimes texting and typing on forums doesn't come out right. I struggle on both ends of that.

PERsonal SECurity, I would guess.....

I try hard to stay under the radar and not make waves. Help when I can but often find myself late to the party as 6 other OSA members have already offered help.

I am a kidder, a jokester, and sometimes a buffoon. I will be sarcastic as hell in an attempt to make a point or continue the "piling on" as it were to a topic I have an opinion on. I don't attack anyone personally, I'm an equal opportunity offender.


See, sarcasm!

The 6 is fine, I just give people grief over the 6.5, my brother in law/hunting partner included LOL...

I don't post location or stories when not at home to do the same. Inside and outside security cams that are online with alerts let us know what's going on at home when gone in real time.

Correct.
