I'm talking about you guys jumping quickly on any post criticizing your "hobby." Besides, Hoyt Jun 2015 #37

Because we know you and your kind would never alert on pro-gun posts hack89 Jun 2015 #38

I've never alerted on any post, voted to hide only one or two. Pro-gun posts are disgusting Hoyt Jun 2015 #41
