Bruce, I agree that no minds appear to have been changed which is why
I tried, feebly, to change the subject.
However, I couldn't agree with you more. Gay Married folks with guns
can do whatever they want...

ps: methinks that's # 2 for me. So any further thoughts shall be
post-poned until tomorrow.

I understand you all have the right to do and say whatever you
want, but is this not very counter-productive? No one is changing
sides, and no one is convincing anyone of anything, and people are
getting more heated.
Remember J.R., that prolific poster who got in a big fight on these
boards and then was never seen again (and of course the person who
got into it with him almost never posts either)? Is this going to
be an instant replay? Does MoPo have so many regular posters that
it can afford to lose one or two of the best ones? I think not.
Imagine the shape our world would be in if entire countries acted
the way MoPo members did in this silly affair. Oh wait, they DO act
that way, so look at what bad shape the world is in, and decide if
you want a microcosm of that here.
If you want to split the list down the middle discussing something
that no one will ever change their minds on, why not discuss gun
control or abortion, or gay marriage?
I like MoPo, and I can't help noticing the number of people drops
little by little every week, and I can't help wondering if topics
like these don't contribute to that.
If you need something to unify behind, why don't we discuss how
awful eBay is?
