Do you think anti-gun articles would survive long here at FR?

Guns, just like dogs, kill people, and I'd say guns kill a lot more people each year.

8 articles a day on evil guns would be 8 true articles a day, just the same as the pit bull stories are true.

But such an agenda would be likely be pulled once too many get posted.

What's that got to do with Chet's threads? He's posting articles about pit bulls without commentary. So what? If they reflect badly on the breed or the breed's owner, that's not his doing.

Guns, just like dogs, kill people, and I'd say guns kill a lot more people each year.

So guns jump fences and shoot someone all on their own. Do they break their leashes and go down the street to do so? Do they run in packs and shoot people as a group? They have to be raised right and well socialized so as not to be a threat? Last I heard, a gun is an inanimate object that has to be directly operated by the owner.

8 articles a day on evil guns would be 8 true articles a day, just the same as the pit bull stories are true.

Who's labeling Chet's pit bull threads as evil? He's just posting them as they appear in whatever publication he finds them in. The pit bull threads are posted without commentary by Chet.

But such an agenda would be likely be pulled once too many get posted.

What agenda? Posting facts is an agenda? He posts a thread. People are free to comment on them. For all the threads I checked that Chet has posted, I don't see any with an agenda to get the dogs banned. I didn't see any that dealt with and pushed proposed legislation to ban them. That would be an agenda. Simply posting true articles about a situation does no an agenda make.
