28. There is already an Orwellian attempt to redefine "pro gun control" as *actually*

being the pro-NRA and pro-gun lobby and pro-GOP line, all in the name of "helping" Democrats!:

"Because I'd like to see effective and Constitutional gun control that won't get reversed at the
next round of Congressional elections"

Mark my words, folks: the Gungeoneers resent that this group was established in the first place, but now that it is they have no intention of simply leaving it alone so the SOP of the group can be upheld. They will be over here spewing the same pro-NRA bilge they do in the Gungeon day and night, all under the guise of "helping" advance the cause of gun control! The talking points on why they should be allowed to do that are already being tested out over in GCRKBA.

Again, I don't call for a heavy hand in this group: but I would urge the Hosts to keep the SOP on track, and let juries sort out the rest. Repeat offenders of the SOP should be restricted from the group, IMHO. Just a heads-up and my $0.02.

Gun Safety sounds like we're teaching NRA Eddie Eagles Classes. ellisonz Mar 2013 #20

And that is the point, to change the debate so the NRA no longer has a monopoly on the language Bjorn Against Mar 2013 #21

That would just confuse people as a forum title. ellisonz Mar 2013 #22
