Thank you for the reddie you gave me as your gesture of appreciation for my post in the thread " Because I own them etc " a thread displaying a range of guns that only people that live in the alleged land of the free need in order to protect themselves :eek: .

If I recall correctly all I posted was " Please don't " I can't check this because our moderators also didn't like the thread and shoved it to the secret orange room. Have you given them a reddie too?

As such an innocuous post was offensive enough for you to give me, contrary to the guidelines, a reddie I looked closer at your track record.

Peter.

Steady Sturdee,

Or we may end up having hidden "weapons of mass destruction"!

Now off to the orange room

**Pat** · 25th March 2006, 03:08 PM

Peter, all you said was "Please DON'T:mad: Thank God we have gun controls and those kinds of weapons are not available here . . ." which is a fair comment.

I would disregard this poor excuse and remember that you have contributed greatly to forum for all the right reasons!

**Daddles** · 25th March 2006, 04:11 PM

Bat gave me a reddie to, only he didn't bother to give a reason. He's also fired off all sorts of responses posts that don't address anything except that the poster didn't agree with him. In other words, he's thrown a temper tantrum and kicked back at everyone who didn't agree. This is exactly the wrong sort of person to own any weapon, let alone the ones he displays so proudly.

People often say that guns don't kill people, people kill people. They are right, however, a gun in the hands of someone who reacts as BAT has done is very dangerous and justifies the gun laws that we currently have in this country. It's just another case of a few ruining things for the majority. Thank heavens he lives overseas.

agreed, anyone who could be as free with bullets as he seems to have been with reddies would be a danger to us all. well done Sturdee, Daddles and others for taking a stand on this.

**Sturdee** · 25th March 2006, 04:35 PM

Richard, he didn't give me a reason either.

Whilst I personally have a great abhorrence of guns being, without proper controls, freely available in the community I didn't think my original post was worthy of being raspberried.

My personal objection is because my elder brother, as a teenager, lost the sight in his left eye when he was shot in that eye with a hot candle wax pellet fired from a Luger by some kid playing with an abandoned one soon after WW2 in Holland. :mad:

Because of that stupid incident when weapons were freely available my brother has for the last 60 years lived with the problem of seeing only through his right eye.

I don't have a problem with guns being available for proper sport or recreational use but I strongly object to unfettered gun ownership. Let's not forget that the USA is the murder capital of the world because of their gun ownership.

Peter.

I just checked and he's got 2 now, someone must be reloading his weapons for him. BTW Al, i softened him up for you an hour ago with a little crimson projectile, but now i guess all he can throw is little blue spitballs. they might be annoying but they cant do any damage hehehehe

What the hell did he give you a reddie for? Dammit. Even being associated with me isn't enough to warrant a reddie ... well, perhaps it is

Richard

yes, I'm still here, strange as it might seem to some, stange as I might appear to some, but that's cool, the cat still loves me

**Cliff Rogers** · 25th March 2006, 08:58 PM

Me too, I was ignoring that thread but he can't hand out raspberries to our senior members just 'cos he doesn't like their opinion.

**Sturdee** · 25th March 2006, 09:56 PM

Rather than be a man and face up to criticism and either explain his actions or defend giving his reddie he has instead altered his signature line by adding the following :

Not satisfied with individuals, now he is insulting our country as a whole. A bit rich seeing he comes from seppo land which claims to be the home of the braves and land of the free.

Our early settlers may have been convicts but you lot murdered most of the braves ( the original Indians ) and locked the rest up and starved them in reservations ( the first concentration camps in the world ) and a land where they are so free that they need that kind of weapons to protect themselves from their fellow country men. USA, the murder capital of the world.

FYI the early cotton plantations on which your country's wealth was built was originally worked by the same british convicts before they were sent here and when that supply eased up they were replaced by slaves.

Your constitution said " All men are created equal " . Yea right

except if you were a black then you were a slave.

We may have had convicts, sentenced for a period of time for a crime committed, but we never had slavery. Something seppos always conveniently forget.:mad:

Hi All,
Been away for a while and just catching up on a few threads (lots) I've missed, anyway, I have not read the original thread but from what I've read in this one I have the gist of it. My point is I agree with you Cliff 100% but senior or not I don't these reddies should be flung here and there willie nillie, people who choose to give them out to any member should at least have the guts to give a reason as to why. May be this could be my first one!...Though I haven't checked for awhile...
