With all due respect my good man,, whats up with that little clip of the guy gettin blasted?? In poor taste if you ask me. Just what the anti's need to see. Not really putting the best light on the responsible gun owner. I mean we talk on here on weather or not to call a gun a weapon for the sake of the unknowing. What message does this send? It is kinda neat but not on a public web site. JMHO.

As we all know, most of use here are not worried about being "politically correct". I say keep it bud!
Flathead,
Maybe this will help, the clip is a segment from Saving Private Ryan. No one was really injured in the attached clip.[;)] Anyway, the guy getting plinked was a bad, bad NAZI. Does that help explain?

It is a movie clip from saving Private Ryan and a lot more tasteful than Janet Jackson's B@@B! Trooper is not even on prime time and if the anti's come here I know this crew -- they will get toasted but good.
Plus give the kid a break. I have nose hair older than Trooper is.
Ignorance is bliss!!! Nuff said
Hummmm, so we are all ignorant? Man, looks like you are trying to make lots of friends here already.[B)]
Like you said "JMHO"....I think your looking to pick a fight with the majority of the GBers and trooperchin. Why would you single someone out like that?[?]
MORE than enough I'd say....

There was just a thread that you guys responded to about using the word weapons. It seems that it was agreed that weapon is a bad choice, firearm is better for the benifit of those not in the know. But you defend a clip of a guy getting deeped sixed. I will stick with what I think and that is I think it is not the greatest thing to have a guy getting killed as part of your signature. I dont care if it is a movie. Hows about I find a movie clip of a guy using a gun and raping a women,, what the heck it is just a movie.
I been around long enough to learn not to put things like that in peoples face. Bad image for gun owners if you ask me. Again JMHO.
Sorry for stating my opinion and stiring the pot.[B)]

If it's for public consumption, I'd sooner demonstrate my taste for firearms with a pic of a really cool gun...But, to each his (or her) own. All I'll say is: it wouldn't be my choice of decoration for a public forum, though I'm not personally offended by it.
BTW, trooper, do what ever YOU want. [;)]

Flathead: Are you telling me we're supposed to see a Nazi stormtrooper getting taken down by an American sniper as a disgusting and indecent?
Dont get me wrong I have my fair share of guns, more than most , not as many as some. I would like to keep them.
As was stated you have the freedom to do what ever you want,no matter how ignorant.

Not trying to start a fight. Is this one of those place's where if you dont go with the crowd you chastised? From gbeggrow's post it seems it is so, he takes it upon himself to include you all.

Flathead,
Lets revisit this. I can see where you are coming from about the overall image. I understand what you are trying to communicate and can agree with you to some degree. Also, as you pointed out I should not have assumed that all GBers share my feelings. I was sincerely trying to point out to you what my opinion was. Again im my opionion, Gunbroker.com is a place that I can come and be gbeggrow. I think a lot of us get a little frusterated with being labeled "gun nuts" and get tired of having to be so politically correct all the time in our day to day lives. As a business professional in corporate America it gets to me quite a bit. I've found that coming to the Gunbroker.com forum is a pleasent form of therapy for me. You know...a place wher I can "let my hair down" if you will. I hate the idea of having to be politically correct here on the GB forums so I guess I saw it as a slight intrusion (probably also too that trooperchin is one of the posters that I get a kick out of most) so I appologize if you took offense. Do you see my point at all?
Anyway, it is not my intent to make any enemies here on the GB forum.
Keep it, I think its awesome, anybody that doesnt like it, tell them to hit the bricks.

In terms of younger people and weapons, you have Dylan Klebold, Eric Harris, Kip Kinkel, and a number of other kids to thank for the scrutiny.

If it was that bad it would have been poofed by now. It has not so no point in bashing it. Besides, who cares what the antigun people think of this site. We could post little angels and stictly do charity work for the poor, do you honestly believe that would change their positions on guns.

The I guess we shouldnt trust adults with firearms... they kill more people than do teens...
Travis,
Mateo was talking about a post i did earlier about his sig. pic.
Notice how the clip is still there? It isnt going anywhere.
