Why are all the mods pro-gun? Pretty ironic if you ask me.

[quote]Why are all the mods pro-gun? Pretty ironic if you ask me.[/quote]Um, I'm not. Though I'm not American so it's not really a problem we have over here. Penn spoke an enormous amount of sense here. I don't agree with everything he says but it usually comes from a good place. People do need to get their priorities straight, he's right. But I disagree with not speaking about it at all. News corporations that make a profit off a good tragedy shine too bright a spotlight on these events, and leave more pressing/mundane concerns in the shade. But that doesn't mean there should be no discussion of the "gun issue" whatsoever IMO. The other three though, they seem phenomenally stupid. Or at the very least, extremely clumsy in what they're saying.

Being a moderator on an internet forum has little to do with my political views. And the fact is that I have never expressed any opinion on any political issue in the public forums here, including gun control. I have made it known that I am a gun owner and I really enjoy pistol and rifle target shooting, but this hobby is shared by millions of people around the world. Not sure why that has anything to do with gaming and online forum moderating.

Foman when it comes to your view on gun control, I agree with you completely. I don't even own a gun but I do support gun owners and the second amendment.

From what I gather, Daz doesn't seem pro-gun. I don't know if he's anti-gun, but he loves to stir things up in firearm threads.

Edited by VIC: 1/21/2013 5:28:19 AMA lot of my views align with Penn's, mostly the, "I don't know what's best for you," stance that he takes. Also, the women on the panel were basically just regurgitating (incorrectly, even) talking points that are anti first and second amendment.

Perhaps he isn't necessarily "pro-gun", but he feels that Penn made good arguments and the other guests were legitimately very stupid?

Exactly what I was wondering.
