[QUOTE="Pokem807, post: 2983310, member: 7378"] Familiarity breeds contempt. Couple this with the ability to throw bombs from the comfortable anonymity of a computer and I think this type of cycle is bound to happen. Hopefully things are on the up-swing and the forum will be even better than it was in the "good old days". There seems to be a group which likes guns just because they like guns; from what I've seen these tend to be the one issue voter crowd. That issue, of course, is 2A...but it doesn't go much deeper than "I like guns just because". Then there is another group which likes guns but also incorporates that affinity into something larger and more comprehensive. That's where I am. For instance, how a person could extol the virtues of Obama and then in the next breath gripe about excessive firearms regulation is incomprehensible to me...but that type of incongruity used to be pretty common around here. It's kind of like Nancy Pelosi going on about how devoutly Catholic she is and then praising Planned Parenthood. Then there are topics like open carry vs. concealed carry. Holy ****...regardless of which side they were on, I couldn't believe how many folks wanted to fight about something so trivial. IDGAF what you do as long as you don't try to dictate to me, but that type of in-fighting harshes the mellow pretty quick. Like I said, hopefully it's a cycle and OSA just gets better from here on out. [/QUOTE]
