So, what is your opinion on this?
The forum I was a member of before here is owned and run by a bunch of guys who are all pro-gun and pro Jesus. The 2 owners both play in P&W bands.
The forum has strict rules about NO POLITICS and NO RELIGION. Yet they allow members to talk about guns and folks can request prayers, as well as talk about Praise and Worship music.
Was reading an exchange between a member and a mod just now. The member is arguing that guns are political and prayer is religion.
The mod is saying asking for prayers is the same as asking for well wishes, that P&W music is simply just another genre, and that guns are just tools - like baseball bats, hammers, and swords.
On that last point, I just checked the internet and can not find anything about any Washington bat lobbies, any debates on bat control, politicians who take a firm stand on one side of the bat aisle in order to gain votes from a certain demographic, or a National Bat Association.
Anyway, are the forum owners being hypocritical? Note that anti-gun or anti-religious posting accounts for tons of infractions over there.
