Also, the only Activism in that group is banning anyone that either disputes what they say or has taken a RKBA stance in this group.

Here's a good one from billh58: "I'm sure that some other "responsible" gun owners will come along and gunsplain this to me using NRA-parroted words that even a Liberal Democrat can understand. I can hardly wait."

I bet he can hardly wait, and with his finger on the ban button. The fact is no one will come along and "gunsplain" anything to him because they have already banned almost everyone that could give him any sensible argument or explanation.

In fact if you read their Group SOP, then go down and read every reply to every OP you will see that no one in that group follows their own SOP. Excluding original post, every reply that follows is just bashing gun owners. Going strictly by their SOP, they all should be banned from their own group, including the admins, for the same violations they supposedly use to put each of the now 87 members on their current ban list. They don't do anything but whine and complain, don't follow their own Group SOP, and basically use the ban button as a way of getting even with people that support RKBA on DU.
