It's on days like today that one realizes how important this forum is. This forum is a rare bastion for free speech—surviving in sea of mega-media dominated by manipulation, bias, and corruption.

Thank you.

Yep

Bully!

👍

I couldn’t agree more👍

Truth.

This is the weakest call-out thread I've ever seen.



Seriously agree with the esteemed gents above me!

For sure

Oh schit. What happened?

Who do I have to spring from Forum Purgatory now???

Preach brother

KissAss! But, yah!

I know nothink!

no, you get to shear sheep.

YEAH!

Here here

I am too old and fat for that.

......in the beer cave!

The Fire has it’s own built in protection from individuals who either want or would try to suppress speech. Our members.

He PM'd me once right when I first joined this board so we're pretty tight. It was a nice form letter welcome with no response needed.

Reaching out.

I hope it doesn't come to this:

Your wife is from NZ, too, right?

If she doesn't have the skills I bet there are relatives or friends over there that do.

Awesome web site with free speech. Thank you Rick!

I must admit that during these times of unrest and strife you gentlemen are at your finest !

Gee, for the rest of the fellas

Thanks Lynn.

be thankful screw worms are a thing of the past.

:Mebbe this Bin feller is like the guy behind the curtain, in Wizard of Oz? But yeah, great place to vent, spew and grumble.

As one that has taken this site for granted, I would like to take a moment and thanks Rick, and the friends we have here for helping to keep America great !

👍

Yeah all that ^^^
Thanks Rick.

Like!

Those traveling sheep shearers are a tough lot. They earn their money....

Nice try buddy. Still not getting the password.

Fugg ya this site is great, and Rick is awesome

He does run a refreshingly open forum and it definitely is my favorite. The wealth of knowledge and the true kindness of members on here is amazing.

moderators? We don't need no stinking moderators.

Yes a big thanks to RB. Be Well, RZ.

Thanks so much for the entertainment, with a little knowledge thrown in.

Bite it!

I agree King, Rick is a true believer. I get a kick out of those that believe Rick leaves the trolls here so he can make money off of them, I'll agree he makes money off of them but that's not the reason he leaves them here.

You da man Rick!!

A great place to hang out! Thanks Rick

Yes... Agree...

Thank you Sir

uber word Rick, you da man!

Nice to participate in a site that isn't run by politically correct poozies! No suppressing freedom of speech here. GREAT JOB!!!!! Now POOZIES GFY and move along.





Take care, Willie

Yes indeed, Thank You Mister Bin.

Well stated Kingston and thanks Ric-B

Actually, that's totally false. Look what happens when one of our resident liberals says something anti-Trump.

Amen I love the liaise-faire approach to oversight here.

Rick Bin is sort of like "The man behind the curtin", in The Wizard of Oz. He rarely speaks up.

You mean there are Leftists who are kicked out with their login creds
suspended?

Or do you mean that people with different opinions exercise their own freedom in expressing their own opinions when these Leftist pot stirrers come along?

If you’ve observed the first that’d prove Kingston’s thesis incorrect but if you’re addressing the second I’d say you’ve got issues with your categories.

Yes indeed, Thank you Rick !

Just an aside, I wonder what this site is worth, in Yankee dollars?

That is easily calculated. Just add up our collective 2 cents.

Thanks Ricky,

Love Deflave ❤️

Yes! Thank You Rick! memtb

I hope he's rolling in tall cotton, he can double the membership fees and I'm still all in !

Freedom is seldom free !

I wouldn't be surprised if it cost Mr. Bin out-of-pocket to keep this site up.

Put another way, the only people profiting on here are in the classifieds.

After paying JB a couple hundred grand a year, there probably isn’t much left.

what a bunch of suck-ups

I was a long-standing member of a forum in Virginia called Virginia Gun Trader.

Initially, 24 Hour Campfire and Virginia Gun Trader we're very similar.

But about 4 years ago Brian the owner of Virginia Gun Trader prevented commentary on other people's posts.

Self-policing... basically "Say something STUPID and the whole community will come down on you like a pallet of bricks."... was eliminated on Virginia Gun Trader.

Virginia Gun Trader site is now UTTERLY WORTHLESS NOW... and I suspect it will be dissolved shortly.

... and with it's dissolution... 70,000 good Virginia citizens will no longer have a local gun site.

In short, Brian is an utter puzzy... and Ric is not.

free speech is a wonderful thing. but it can cause one to get the s**t beat out of them too. i've experienced it first hand. then got up to tell about it.

nobody said freedom was free. it's cheaper to be enslaved but not half as much fun.

Yep, right enjoyable place to visit without all the bullshiet moderating. You guys actually self moderate pretty well and keep MOST of the Rif-Raf out....LOL

FREE classifieds.

Free service to the membership.

Right on brother Kingston ! ! ! ! !

Yes thank you Mr. Bin
When he allowed Canadians, I knew he was a good man.
And the fact he accepted me on top was even better.
I believe he was an educator, so he is used to dealing with kids.
Try and find a similar Canuck forum, you won't.

Sell your Porsche and start a new site for Virginians!

Free eyeball!!

The only reason they get shouted down is their freedom to show their ignorance or lack of common sense....

The freedom here is worth the price of having to sift through the rubbish to be able to find the truth.

I self moderate........ well, not really...

I expect to be banned at any time....

Naw, he's kind of a weasel.........

What else would they expect trolling a conservative outdoor forum.
None of em ever state why they are Liberal Socialist Democrats or their core beliefs or values why they are so.
They just drop President Trump bad nuggets
President Trump policy bad schitt.
In their fugged up usual trolling way for a reaction.

Hugs and apologies for em????

LOL!!!

They are free to open their pieholes.
And we are free to shout em down with ours.





If their was IP tracking of 1 account per IP addy on here.
8/10ths of these multiscreening Liberal Socialist Democrat accounts wouldnt exist.
The TomBrown sockpuppet I set up 3 or 4 weeks ago is a prime example.
TomBrown has been ethnic cleansed, cause I said what it's purpose was to show on here.
JMO....

So, we can expect him back as a cleaner, ethnically purer Tommy Boy some day?

Not worth the trouble... I got 24 Hour Campfire and Muslem Pornhub.

Who needs much else?

Dream on.

I'd like to see FredIII given a chance to redeem himself.

He's a covtard so ...

I have been apart of over 100 gun forums since rec.guns on usenet in 1994.

All moderators would be tyrants......except at successful forums.

You couldn't be more wrong Rock Chuck. If Rick were wielding the ban hammer and removing leftist posters, then you would be correct. IF they weren't cock puppets. I am not aware of him doing that, even with cock puppets. Contrarians are free to post here, and others are free to counter post. That exemplifies free speech.

I am glad this place is free of moderation, but I do wish there was a way to eliminate cock puppets.

The number of left of center posters over all is rather high, considering the demographic. The hard left posters who are honest and post all things under one name, and do more than post inflammatory BS is very very very small. Courage is not a trait that runs strong in those bloodlines.

Maybe SnoopyBrown or CharlieBrown


LOL!!!
