I was a frequent lurker over there but felt the posting/responding methods were cumbersome, but maybe I never took the time to really learn it.

I like AR-15.com also, as a substitute.

Travis, the BB system at TFL wasn't too bad to use once you got used to it... like HTML, you had to learn a little bit about its conventions, and think ahead before posting... open another window so you could fetch addies, that sort of thing.

I join new boards with great reluctance because of that, however- it's a bloody nuisance to have to shift gears mentally and remember what sort of format I'm using.

Exactly. That's why I lurked there and posted here.

Looks like Shooterstalk.com is going down also.

Thanks for posting... I was hunting a link for it. I joined the day they opened.

It appears THR will have a broader scope than TFL, encompassing civil liberties more widely. I urge all members here who are interested in the RKBA issues, technical information, tactics, etc., to take a look and consider joining.

Make no mistake, the anti-self-defense forces are waiting in the wings, licking their chops in anticipation of a fall from grace by President Bush, or another atrocity involving guns so they can trot out their "sensible firearms regulations for all the children" or other poll-tested talking points.

They have 'em ready, waiting for targets of opportunity. We need as broad and loud a voice as we can find to keep re-educating the public.

I'm going to lurk over there for the time being but the first thing I noticed was Oleg Volk was there. His posters and artwork have done a great service for the Second Amendment and I wanted to keep track of what he's been doing lately.

Oleg's a good guy, and visual communication sometimes works better than mere words do.

I took the liberty of posting some of what I mentioned to you on Free Dominion, as a standalone post:

Thanks a lot. Went there, registered, and am ready to go. Hope Oleg is able to keep it up and running.

You're welcome. I was told about the site from a friend who called today. He was on Shooterstalk. If you see fiveshooter, say hi for me.
