I support the idea of a Self Defense group as well Lurks Often Oct 2015 #1
Link to a thread or was it via PM? n/t discntnt_irny_srcsm Oct 2015 #2
I saw this in ADA. I have communicated with darkangel218, but don't want Eleanors38 Oct 2015 #59
Thanks I read the thread and... discntnt_irny_srcsm Oct 2015 #64
If it's not "another gun group", why are you posting about it in GC&RKBA? SecularMotion Oct 2015 #3
Sounds like its intended to be a safe haven. beevul Oct 2015 #5
Self defense needs a safehaven? What caliber will protect the Ed Suspicious Oct 2015 #28
Just like 'gun control' did, apparently. N/T beevul Oct 2015 #30
Just want to thank you for the publicity in GD, Secmo. :) Decoy of Fenris Oct 2015 #47
The OP in GD was deleted by its author. beevul Oct 2015 #48
I would have, but wasn't sure if it would be canned as a SOP violation... Eleanors38 Oct 2015 #60
I deleted after gun nuts swarmed the thread whining about not getting respect for their RW views SecularMotion Oct 2015 #61
You post flame bait and then whine when you got the intended result? hack89 Oct 2015 #67
If only you employed that same "logic" here in the Gungeon. DonP Oct 2015 #69
Failure to understand the Streisand Effect is your problem, not ours n/t friendly_iconoclast Oct 2015 #70
Count me as a supporter. N/T beevul Oct 2015 #4
Is it getting too hot in the Gungeon or too cold? Fred Sanders Oct 2015 #6
Probably all of the above. Self Defense goes much further than just guns. n/t Decoy of Fenris Oct 2015 #7
Like a can of beans or maybe knitting needles? SecularMotion Oct 2015 #8
Anything at hand, really. Everything's an option; some options are more viable than others. n/t Decoy of Fenris Oct 2015 #9
Would you rather fight 1 horse-sized duck or 100 duck-sized horses? SecularMotion Oct 2015 #12
1 horse sized duck. n/t Decoy of Fenris Oct 2015 #13
Don't forget sarisataka Oct 2015 #16
Hey Eleanors, is this the "Official" thread for interest? If so, count me in. n/t Decoy of Fenris Oct 2015 #10
I don't know anymore what is "official" in DU. But there has to be... Eleanors38 Oct 2015 #55
Self defense should be allowed here sarisataka Oct 2015 #11
This has been cross posted in GD. beevul Oct 2015 #14
Well, all gun control self-fappery aside, a Self Defense group should be something we embrace. Decoy of Fenris Oct 2015 #15
I completely agree. N/T beevul Oct 2015 #17
This is how I see it. Some folks have no guns, yet are situationally aware... Eleanors38 Oct 2015 #49
Sun Tsu "The Art of War" beardown Oct 2015 #58
I support this. NT pablo_marmol Oct 2015 #18
I hope the intent is to discuss practical & non-lethal measures as well in terms of self-defense hlthe2b Oct 2015 #19
I agree, gejohnston Oct 2015 #20
I like the idea, gejohnston Oct 2015 #21
Hey guys. I know I'm (relatively) new, but if you guys need help, let me know! Decoy of Fenris Oct 2015 #22
Why does the fucking DU need a self defense forum? There are 100s if not 1000s of gun forums.... Logical Oct 2015 #23
Why not? n/t Decoy of Fenris Oct 2015 #24
Why do you care? hack89 Oct 2015 #25
LOL, because it is silly and unneeded. nt Logical Oct 2015 #27
We can use Banasalot as the standard as to whether it is needed or not. hack89 Oct 2015 #31
Yeah, it might distract folks from the tap dancing kitten forum. beardown Oct 2015 #57
Why does Du need sarisataka Oct 2015 #29
I would support a SD group. nt hack89 Oct 2015 #26
Sounds like a great idea....SD posts normally end up getting spammed. ileus Oct 2015 #32
I remember DU not that long ago when a men's group was "too controversial" lumberjack_jeff Oct 2015 #33
What is the best SD advice for folks ear-plugged into music all day? Eleanors38 Oct 2015 #52
Stick to the sidewalk? Look both ways before crossing the street? n/t lumberjack_jeff Oct 2015 #66
I don't know, either. That's the point. Eleanors38 Oct 2015 #68
Four groups? There are 2 groups and 1 forum (Guns Discussion, usually). There are some Eleanors38 Oct 2015 #53
I include outdoor life which is mostly (albeit tangentially) about guns. lumberjack_jeff Oct 2015 #65
I have to admit the thread underway in GD is surprising and a little horrifying to me. Brickbat Oct 2015 #34
In what way, if you don't mind my asking? n/t Decoy of Fenris Oct 2015 #35
The speed with which the conversation went from Brickbat Oct 2015 #36
Yeah... Yeah. That happens a lot. n/t Decoy of Fenris Oct 2015 #38
I've seen it happen; it was just the zero-to-sixty speed with which the conversation fell apart Brickbat Oct 2015 #45
And it wasn't even the pro 2A folks here who derailed the thread. GGJohn Oct 2015 #43
Exactly. Brickbat Oct 2015 #46
Huh? There is a very good web site you could visit for that type of discussion... madinmaryland Oct 2015 #37
"Go over to www.freerepublic.com for that kind of discussion." beevul Oct 2015 #39
Unrelated; Grats on 10K posts, mate. o7 Nice milestone. n/t Decoy of Fenris Oct 2015 #40
Oh wow. beevul Oct 2015 #41
Neither do I, but it was so close to 10K that it drew my attention. No prob. n/t Decoy of Fenris Oct 2015 #42
Hmmmm, GGJohn Oct 2015 #44
Why would you guide progressive democrats to free republic? Do you really like that site? ileus Oct 2015 #50
Would you propose that liberal women seek advice from the Far Right re: self defense? Eleanors38 Oct 2015 #51
or any intelligent gejohnston Oct 2015 #54
do you really expect serious discussions gejohnston Oct 2015 #56
To help matters along, I suggest a SOP should concentrate on... Eleanors38 Oct 2015 #62
I'd like to submit a clause for consideration. beevul Oct 2015 #63
