1. Apologies for snarking on you, my caffeine levels were not up to the minimum daily requirement.

2. Yes, this is a political discussion group. But, I get so tired of people discounting other people's value based on whether they "think like us". People should not be judged solely on their political bent (politicians excepted, of course!). It's so dismissive! "I'm not going to see [insert movie name here] because the director/star/guy who gets the donuts is a lib. They could not possibly have anything to say that I would want to hear."

It's like a special form of censorship. And we're not big on that, are we?

I hear ya. But that's not what I was doing at all. I opened with "He's a B-rate actor..." because I honestly don't think much of his talent. Pointing out the anti-gun stance was an afterthought (although I can see how one might construe it as you did).
