Greetings. Busy finishing the next issue of GunNews amid a wedding this weekend. Got this email this morning. It’s the third I’ve gotten in recent days reference the back and forth sniping in comments between two of our regular commenters.
Guns Save Life’s web site is becoming a little like the Wild West. In some ways that’s a good thing. In others it just portrays us (2A supporters) as nothing more than an unstable mob. GSL 1589 and Ken don’t do us any favors with their rancor. Any way to inform them comments on the blog [posts] are what they should be doing? And not this silly back and forth between two people. Thanks for what you can do.
I’ll second that motion. I like and encourage the free flow of ideas, analysis and interpretations. Even if they are off topic to some degree on occasion.
Personal attacks don’t add anything of value.
As an aside, the only other really problematic areas, aside from defamatory remarks and doxxing are overtly racist stuff. Racial epithets reduce the site’s value and our reputation so I try to address those with direct edits on an “as seen” basis.
And I also got this one a few days ago…
I know you know ****. Can you ask him to quit with the nasty attacks on ‘Ken’? Trust me, sir, I never thought I’d defend Ken. Their back and forth is getting distracting.
Figuring that one or both gents had something going on that’s got them irritable I thought this would pass, but it’s only getting worse. So I’m sharing these emails and urging you two gents to take a break from sniping or trolling one another.
Pretty please?
