Ok all of you trump haters here something for you to enjoy.

Trajan61 comments on Dec 8, 2018:

If your not a Trump basher maybe you should join the conservative group.

SpikeTalon replies on Dec 8, 2018:

@48thRonin I'm a registered Independent myself, while I do lean to the right my overall views would best align with that of the Libertarians.

House democrats aren’t even in power yet and are already working on a gun control bill.

SpikeTalon comments on Dec 7, 2018:

You can see where their priorities are at, in all the wrong places. Damn, those folks just don't give up...

SpikeTalon replies on Dec 8, 2018:

@Trajan61 Indeed, because that party no longer has any true liberals, they have long been overrun with progressives (aka politically correct crowd).

House democrats aren’t even in power yet and are already working on a gun control bill.

Seriousreason comments on Dec 7, 2018:

Gun ownership, personal gun control and common sense when using firearms is something most law abiding citizens hold in high regard.The culture of guns is so ingrained into American psychological makeup that surely the virtue signiling Dems I feel will find any push to seriously change attitudes a ...

What is your favorite comic strip of all time and what do you like about it?

Dang, that's a tough one. Think I'll go along with Dilbert.

Forgot to mention what I like about it. Office humor is always fun.

Oh boy, ANTIFA members are starting to open carry.

bigpawbullets comments on Dec 6, 2018:

Well, if they're carrying firearms in accordance with the law, that's their right. We can't have it both ways.

SpikeTalon replies on Dec 7, 2018:

I'm not suggesting anyone restrict their right to carry, just saying them open carrying now is all the more reason to cc.

I love this site. If I never get another point I would remain here.

CaroleKay comments on Dec 5, 2018:

You are one of those peeps that make it all worthwhile. ♥

SpikeTalon replies on Dec 7, 2018:

@CaroleKay Okay, thanks for the feedback. Wasn't sure if it was okay to message you or not, but I'll message you when I get a chance.

I'm sure the left-leaning medias will downplay this story... [americanlookout.com]

SpikeTalon replies on Dec 7, 2018:

@CaroleKay Hi Carole, don't have alot of time at the moment so figured I'd tag you in this post. Since the conservative group was handed down to me I've received multiple hate messages in private from sock puppet accounts that suggested everything from walking off of a cliff to gargling on shards of glass, all due to the group I host. Since I could not determine who exactly was behind the dummy accounts, I resorted to blocking anyone who had detailed in their bios any hint of disdain toward conservative-leaning individuals, which is why I had blocked and banned you from the conservative group based on what you mentioned in your bio and figured you would never want to converse with me in the first place. The conservative group has been a favored target of trolls, and for months in a row almost on a daily basis I dealt with someone joining the group just to stir up trouble, and after awhile it got to be too much. I didn't come to this site to give anyone else a headache, so I figured blocking was the best route to go, but do know that I never had anything personal against you or any other progressive-leaning individual on this site. Truth be told, I'm not a far-right conservative nor am I a Republican, Libertarian best describes my political stance. There are members on here who I would consider friends and quite a few of them are liberal leaning, Shelton being one of them. Again, the last thing I want is to be a problem to anyone on this site, and at times on here can be most unwelcoming to views that do not align with the liberal left, so I stick to visiting posts/groups where I know the convos are a bit more neutral. I'm well aware of GuyKeith's post in the Senate group over me having him blocked and thus he can't see anything I post in that group, and in light of the recent drama in that group I'm considering dropping out, that way I guess neither him or Pralina won't have to worry anymore about seeing my posts as I won't be in the group anymore. With that much said, if you still do hate me or consider me a conservative troll, I understand, the choice to block me again is still yours.

Bierbasstard comments on Oct 11, 2018:

What is wrong with these "lost" members flagging the comments, blocking that member, and continuing the conversation with whom they choose to speak with? Let @Admin "handle" that.

SpikeTalon replies on Dec 7, 2018:

@RavenCT I had started a cyber security/awareness group back in early May, but hardly anyone was interested, about the same ten or so individuals participated, and I eventually handed that group to someone else and last I heard it got retired.

MikeFlora comments on Oct 12, 2018:

I see my post drew attention I didn't mean for it to have. I wasn't saying bored in a bad way, probably "talked out" is a better term. Some of the groups have a life span, you can talk a subject to death, there is nothing left to talk about, which is what I meant when I said the newness has wore ...

SpikeTalon replies on Dec 7, 2018:

@MikeFlora This is the first I'm getting to view this post as I no longer have Raven blocked. Thank you for the kind (and diplomatic) comment, and personally I don't consider anyone on this site an enemy regardless of how much I may disagree with their political stances.

Like the whole "It's cold outside" debacle... people have too much time on their hands and thus complain about the most trivial of things, elevating them to some big deal to make themselves feel better.

SpikeTalon replies on Dec 6, 2018:

Did you just say it's cold outside? It sure is where I live. Now I'm offended, you just had to mention it being cold outside, now did you? Just kidding Middleway, all is good;)

jondspen comments on Dec 3, 2018:

Ty for the info. I hate to jump ship, but I agree, you can't have a logical discussion on here if you're conservative. You are just a backwards neanderthal, and don't deserve any respect or consideration of your argument's logic.

SpikeTalon replies on Dec 6, 2018:

@jondspen Every point that @Trajan61 mentioned above I agree with as well. The classic liberals don't concern me as much as the progressive liberals do, for the latter of the two are motivated by political correctness which in turn has been hurting our country.

A really good article about the lunatic fringe of vegans

Shelton comments on Dec 6, 2018:

I have a problem with people that choose to be extremely forceful with their beliefs whatever they may be.

jondspen comments on Dec 5, 2018:

This group is much more reasonable than the general member population. I have actually disagreed with people in here and was still able to have adult dialogue! Yes....shocking IK :D

SpikeTalon replies on Dec 5, 2018:

This is NOT a politically correct group, which would explain the lack of arguing, the kind of arguing that takes place often on the public threads or even in other groups.

Thought I'd check you guys out.

SpikeTalon replies on Dec 5, 2018:

Quite a few of us in this group while leaning to the right, also understand Libertarian views as well, which is why you won't for the most part find yourself arguing with radicals. Glad to hear you like this group.

Thought I'd check you guys out.

SpikeTalon comments on Dec 5, 2018:

It is on this site anyway, no shortage of conservative bashing.

SpikeTalon replies on Dec 5, 2018:

@norealgod You're right about that, and for the most part the liberals don't bother me, it's those who identify as progressives that concern me.

This is a wonderful site. I love it and enjoy the community. As in any community there are going to be immature individuals that handle things in a manner that you disagree with. Don't let them discourage you.

Been quite a bit of drama lately in the Senate Community group.

The level points have become a diversion, and being that scammers and trolls could start multiple dummy accounts kind of makes me ...

SpikeTalon replies on Dec 5, 2018:

@RavenCT Being that Agnostic.com is available both as a site and app, I think Admin could only do so much to curb spammers. When dealing only with apps, certain authentication measures could be put in place to limit scam accounts, with sites I heard that's not as easy. I wouldn't feel good either just bailing and sticking my groups on someone else, but I suppose if one member didn't want to host a group they could either ask another member if they are interested or ask SiteSupport to retire the group. I already know I won't be able to go on forever, eventually given enough time going by if I haven't deleted my account on here I'll probably at least pause it.

SpikeTalon comments on Dec 4, 2018:

Hellbent, that you again? So far from what I can tell, there's not much difference between Humanist and Agnostic.com, I think the same profile could be shared on both sites. There might be a setting to hide your profile from showing up on Humanist.com, not sure though.

SpikeTalon comments on Dec 3, 2018:

9mm's are always a decent pick, a balance of good stopping power at short-medium distance, pistols chambered for that round often do not have strong recoil when firing, and the ammo itself is not too expensive.

SpikeTalon replies on Dec 3, 2018:

@Trajan61 Look up the celebration of Saturnalia, interesting stuff, supposedly took place December 18-25. That's why X-mas is celebrated on the 25th, because it certainly doesn't say so in the holy babble. My ethnicity is mostly Italian, so I'm no stranger to catholicism (my mother is a fanatical catholic), and the catholic church is perhaps one of the most wicked organizations that ever existed in modern times. It makes me sick to think that some of my distant ancestors may have been part of the early catholic resistance against the Roman pagans, or even the witch trials of the 1600's.

I don't fantasize about a revolution either, I sincerely don't wish for anything of that sort to ever occur, and of course I cannot speak for others on that. Regarding the silly part, that's your opinion and my own opinion is opposite of that, so neither of us will get anywhere further on that much.
