Right.
But then again, it would not matter what topic it is someone always starts chit. There's a big difference in trainwreck threads by valid members, and valid threads purposely derailed by paid trolls. But clicks are money $$ in the internet forum business. So nothing is done. We have religious trolls too. Those that are only here to deny God, and argue He doesn't exist. Perhaps we need to have a Politics & Religion forum? I doubt it'd get used though. It would be greatly ignored. Who are the valid members? Only the ultra conservative, wear-it-on-your-sleeve conservatives? You just can't cope with people that disagree with you. Better they go away than you have to listen to them. Keep cryin'... I'm laughin' Ummm... Maybe those that actually hunt/shoot/fish/trap/reload/ and are vested in interests as such, as well as the freedoms and liberties that come with that lifestyle? I have no problem with people that I don't agree with. None. I even enjoy a good heated debate. But trolls that promote communism, gun control, and taking our freedoms away, are nothing but... well, Trolls. Which are you? "I have no problem with people that I don't agree with. None" when did you change?

I'm laughin' Knew this pos couldn't resist. Does she ever post anything about guns, hunting, fishing, cooking, wilderness, the ocean, family? Hell no. Because the pos is just here to troll, and doesn't want anybody knowing the first thing about him. FOAD. I have Leroy on ignore and would never see any of his posts if it were not for people quoting the commie leftard.

Because I might not happen to agree with you, doesn't mean you aren't an idiot.

No. Don't blame Rick. They are here because members continue to engage them and quote them. Without that they would disappear. Don't feed the trolls!

Rick may be in Davos with the rest of the exceedingly wealthy.

I am going to guess that Rick doesn't give a schidt. If he did, he'd shut down the trolls. agreed. He doesn't care. I seldom come here now because of it

For the third fooking time,
My request is not about trolls. It is not about content. It is not about positions, party affiliation, or opinions.
I just want to have Political threads in a designated area just as so many other topical areas are. If we can separate Savage from Winchester collectors and ARs from military rifles in their own forums, then we ought to be able to have a separate forum for politics. That's all I ask.

I don't know Rick. I do like that he doesn't believe in censorship. If you can't sort through the bs, in a couple key strokes, you are not trying!

The trolls are here for political reasons. That's why they hang out where politics is discussed. It's actually pretty rare to have a troll other places here. The Handguns forum has Glockdumbass, but other than that, and Big Stick, with his large photo file hints, it pretty much is rooted in politics. Those idiots don't do anything but troll politics. Not one of them ever posts about anything remotely related to why this forum is here.

Other forums have a “War Room” category for political discussion and mods move threads to it if they go off the rails into politics. I agree it would be nice to have a separate category for it as it muddies up the general discussion thread and makes it a shiitshow like Facebook.

The months of the year that I have little to know net access I simply don't mis the fire at all. Its not what it used to be.
Evidently Rick could care less if its making him money. But I'd kick all the libs and trolls out period. But he might make less money. Its his call. My choice to be here or not. More and more there is less of use here.
And then when I do come look that twig stick is allowed to continually call everyone dumb [bleep]....
Nah, I think this place and maybe its owner even voted for Biden the way it looks often.
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

That's my take on it too endless political threads used by a handful of addicts to such have been the end of a few other forums I've hung out at, people slowly drift away and next thing you know the site doesn't even resemble what its supposed to be about. A political section sends all that stuff there and the trolls with it. Lets the main forum resemble what the site is all about and keeps the politics the trolls and bickering in the basement.

Not arguing one way or the other...but it seems everything in our lives the last few years is viewed through a political prism. Politics definitely enters into everything, communicable diseases, nice places to live, fish and game policies, building codes, education of our kids, safety stuff on cars, investment strategy, retail buying habits, the species of animals we can have sex with, the gender of the people we have sex with, if any, sinister motives of people using left handed rifles, environmental views, to Round up or not to Round up on our goddam tomato patch, healthcare decisions, entertainment etc etc...it goes on forever, inextricably entwined with every waking moment of our lives. Make all the categories we want, it all comes out of the same ball of yarn. I don't see how we can separate ourselves from it.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.
