Well, he!!, isn't 2A from some point of view a 200 year old controversy that is guaranteed to get a rise from someone every time in an open forum? I don't know what thread you are referring to, but I have a thick hide (thanks to liberal friends and relatives and a personal contrarian streak a mile wide) so what someone else thinks does not bother me... if they claim an open forum of ideas and then don't walk the walk, it's not
my problem, it's
theirs...
As to the LHOLN theory, you can just take a survey of the Internet and you will quickly find a small handful of folks who seem to devote themselves selflessly almost full time to defending it, in defiance of both logic and common sense. As in "no visible means of support" and "paid disseminators of disinformation"... along with a small motley collection of occasional, not-so-bright followers. Not so much antagonistic as amusing, and otherwise insignificant in terms of contribution to overall awareness.
No offense implied by any of the above to any specific party.
I was just passing on the information.
I'm not a moderator so I really don't care. I was just trying to help because I've seen it get out of hand on dozens of occasions.
If you want to start it up again, go ahead.
