In reply to # 1997339 by Speedracer We should make guns illegal , just like drugs, after all that has worked so well for us. hot smiley

You know the problem with radical liberals and conservatives, they don't know when to shut up, they are too busy trying to rob you of your freedoem by forcing their ideas on you, it amazes me that Americans can be so small minded, there are more than two flavors of ice cream you know.

Skye, I thought we shut down the OTP???????????????????? Please get these people off this forum !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hap,

Here's a quote I saw yesterday that I think is apropos:

"Freedom isn’t for everyone because what freedom signifies is different to everyone. And in societies where the definitions and desires of freedom are too broad and too contradictory to permit a general consensus to take shape, the end result is that no one is going to be permitted any significant degree of freedom at all."

Seems more and more, this is where we're headed.

If you believed in Christ, do you think he would be an advocate for gun ownership?

Luk 22:36 And He said to them, But now, he who has a purse, let him take it, and likewise his wallet. And he who has no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one.

I think it would be fair to replace the word "sword" here with a more contemporary term. Perhaps, AR15?

Joe, The fact still remains, this is a MG website, and you sir are one of the the biggest problems here, you should be the first one shown the door, you offer no benefit to this site, and only come here to start trouble. I'm sure there are many political sites you could visit and save us all here the trouble of dealing with you, oh and just so you know I'm into equal rights, I think your over the top conservative counterparts should leave with you.

Oh and for all the crap you start here, you're freeloader on top of it all. Sorry Joe, Skye does not owe you a soap box.

hysterical Hap

no need to get your panties in a bunch. why not exercise some personal responsibility and not read a thread if it bothers you. instead you post your opinion then attack others for doing the same.

why not tell us about a black person you know. AHAHAHAHAHAH

We also have bullying in Australia and are trying to do something about it.

But strangely enough... we don't have many school shootings.

It's not the point that whether I read this stuff, or not, it is the point it breeds hard feelings and brings this forum down, that supposed be about MGB and people who love these car having fun toghether, and this has already been determined by the person who owns this website, that these topics are not allowed here, and my suggestion to him was to show you all the door that refuse to get that message, and then, maybe then we can have peace here and you trouble makers can go cause trouble elsewhere. Skye very much make it clear that this forum is not an arena for any of you all to voice your political or religous opinions here and there are other sites for that. And yes as someone who pays very dearly to be here, I and many other members here want this crap to end, you all were told to stop it, and you still continue to, so don't be surprised when you go to sign on one day and can't, Skye warned you.

hey Hap...............

Do you go down to your local donut shop where a bunch of old geezers may be talking about the world situation ( which you cannot talk about today without a political or religious slant) and ask the owner to kick them out? After all what does that have to do with donuts?

What does meeting your wife or cooking chili or any other of the inane topics brought up here have to do with MGs? I simply skip them and would encourage you to do the same.

I know what you want, you want any opposing view silenced
You are afraid that some here may change their minds if given facts.

Hap, what point are you missing? You dont have to read any of it.. it seems as though some are content with this forum judging by the number of posts, what do you suggest shutting down Off Topic all together? Again, you DO NOT have to venture into the Off Topic Forum, out of sight out of mind.

This has nothing to do with MGs does it Hap?

Yeah, I think the suburban reaction, is always, why didn't he call the cop and files charges, that would assume the cops actually cared, they don't, this sort of stuff happens all day long on their shifts, not like anyone going to actually look for this guy, or he ever gets charged for what he did, this a daed issue as far as the cops are concerned. Having a business in the city, I long ago realized, I was on my own as far as my safety was concerned, the cops just show up to do paperwork after the fact, if that even happens.

No, Hap, your comments above have ZERO chance of turning political in nature...

When did you become officer Waldrop? Why not sign up for the hall monitor job?

Howard, the opposing view, LOL, that's funnier than you'll ever know, that narrow mindset is exactly whats wrong with this country, you guys still think you have only two options. No it's pretty clear there are rules here and you all are abusing them. I don't think of myself as either a liberal or a conservative, but if you liberals are so much on having a bunch of laws, and rules, it seems like you could maybe follow them for a change.

Isn't it somewhat ironic, that a handful of freelaoding refugees from the ole OTP are the only ones threatened by me mentioning you are breaking forum rules here, this has nothing to do with off topic, and everything to do with not creating another OTP here.

I didn't know when someone gives you something for free and you take it that it is known as freeloading. You may pay because you want to advertise your shop ,are you paying Skye the same rate as in the paper or phone book? If not then maybe it is you who is freeloading,
If you get some customers off this site then you are benefiting but the rest of use are only getting(sometimes) to vent our spleen.I don't think anyone here is threatened by you at all. I may be wrong but don't web sites make money by the number of hits they get?
If so then the threads you dislike are the ones with the most activity.

Where's SJJ, I think even he'd disagree with the bullying that goes on from Joe, Charles Patrick, and Howard B.....can't argue a point....so shout louder and post more often.

Hap is asking for reason.......your diatribes are only fit to be confined to the bathroom, with penthouse or playboy in one hand, for the articles of course, and your ego in the other...............you equate popularity with the number of messages in one of YOUR threads.....but when the wankers are creating the threads and filling them with messages, they're inventing their own popularity.

And Randy....your ideas about sin may be valid man to man.......but belief in an imaginary being in the sky doesn't do any argument justice. Believe all you want.....just don't pass it on in the hope it may become contagious. At least Ken has had contact with his not so imaginary people in the sky.

Hap, still haven't decided on wheels yet, if you started a thread on that I wonder how much input you'd get from the Three Wise..........?

None, there only existence here is to start topics that cause hard feelings, knowing anything about subject this forum was started for not important to them. I noticed an alraming trend at the old OTP, and you can bet it follow these same type of threads here, you get some passing-by folks in the hobby, you know , one minute they have a MG, and are on the forum asking a million questions and as quickly as they arrive, they then sale the car and move on, but some of them hung around just for the hateful political threads here. Bottom line if you don't allow this sort of stuff, it cease to be. There are palce for tbhis stuff and it's not here, and this sort of nonsense, should not reflect the off topic forum, because most here in OT, do indeed follow the rules.

I had to deal with this sort of BS as a car club president, we all decided that this small group of folks that were disrupting the club and threatening it's very exsitence,and they had to be dealt with, bottom line we showed the the trouble makers the door, and the club continues to thrive without them. The OT forum here does not exist for "politically pocessed" to express thier views here, no matter what they are, nor does it exist for these types of "baiting" threads,and this problem should be dealt with, before it takes this forum back to the ole OTP days.
Skye is very cautious and fair man, he wouldn't act as fast as I would on this, that is for ssure, but it's pretty obvious where this will lead this forum, and it will have to be dealt with at some point.

Hap I hear and understand what your saying,but if you did'nt you should read some of the previous posts in this thread. Maybe if some folks checked there mouth's at the door we would not be even discussing this. I know these guys you mention,two of them are i consider closer friends same as i consider you the same. Folks like you are the salt of the earth,most of who read this dont know what im talkin about but thats ok. It aint about cars. The thing is guys like you and me were a little older,weve been around the block more than a few times and were old enough or mature to know we dont have to agree on all these "hot" topics but we respect one another and get along and thats the key. Aa a new yorker i enjoy the argument,shake hands later and grab a beer,here on the forum however things printed cause hard feelings. Like you i dont need it,it causes me stress and i got enough of that. To be honest i done my share to stir the pot and often it was a result of something i read here that pissed me off. Dont get to nuts with this and i wont either,it aint worth it,have a good day------------------steve
