3. It is easy to post in the wrong group. ....

Yesterday I was looking at this group and received a call from my grandson who proudly announced he had just rented his first house.

When the call ended, I replied to a post thinking that I was in the Gungeon. That was a careless mistake that I will attempt to avoid in the future.

While I am a strong gun rights supporter, I also wish to see effective improvements to our current gun laws. Hopefully I will be able to make positive suggestions in this group and support the suggestions of those who strongly support gun control that I agree with.

Both sides of the debate have some good ideas and if we ever learn to listen to each other we may actually accomplish some good.

I do understand that the Gungeon was a tough group for any gun control advocate to post in. It is definitely the Wild West of DU. Those who support strong gun control do need a safe haven to develop and discuss ideas without harassment. When a poster here comes up with what he/she considers a good idea, I hope he/she then tests it out in the Gungeon. Of course I will be willing to politely criticize an idea posted in the Gungeon which is not my goal when I post here.
